Just clicked on that and got in the blurb....quote

Bikefanatic has just celebrated it's 1st birthday. To
celebrate we are having a big sale on at the end of Jan

....end quote

Wonder if that Jan next year, or if it the one that's gone,
could be a worry?

Uh.. You mean someone actually looks at my website? I think
I took that down ages ago. Maybe someone could start up a
new one. I don't really have enough time anymore. Too many
projects on already. My aim for this year is to do a lot
less than last year.

Yes, but most of the sites are garbage, including most not
having actual online shops. One day perhaps I'll swing a
deal where I'll build a bike shop a decent web site and get
paid in kind...

Hey. It's bad enough you guys f*&%ing up one thread with your endless inane vitriol. Put it this way, if you were on a ride, together, I'd expect you to have hooked each other into the weeds after 5k's ARGUING ABOUT WHICH WAY A TYRE STICKER SHOULD GO ON THE WHEEL!!!! SHUT UP!!!
I wouldn't go anywhere near either of you, even if you were the only wheel into a 50km/h headwind.

I used the "block sender" thingo in outlook express to get
rid of these guys and it works a treat!

None of them. Not one. Unless you want a poor range and high
prices, you will need to look at overseas shops. I was
impressed by aebike.com .

Locally, take bikenow.com.aubikenow.com.auOpen ↗ as an example.

Cheapest crankset is $193 for an M510. From aebike I had a
massive choice. The M510 was US$60, (A$100) but a more
suitable one (in this case) was US$35, ie about A$70
delivered (with other items).

What about the LBS? I tried a local shop (biggest in perth
possibly?) No 9-speed MTB crankset in stock. They offered an
inferior Alivio model at a higher price. Fortunately, I
could afford to wait 1-2 weeks for an overseas order.

Another comparison. HG-50 cassette. $80-90 here and limited
choice. USA: US$29, or choose an SRAM.

Though bikenow does include freight to any
capitol(sic) city.
