Suppliers of Specialized Armadillos other than Wiggle?

[Michael Green]

Can't find any other mail order retailers. Wiggle likely to be most expensive source. Suggestions
please. Thanks.

Thank you to Pete and Simon.

Unfortunately no 700's at Edinburgh and Bikebrain doesn't search all site, so mostly comes up with
you-know-who (I'm sure we can all guess why).

Any further thoughts on Armadillo or perhaps Nimbus EX in 700x23?

Never tried them (the shop, not the tyres), but what about this place...

http://www.cyclestore.co.uk/productviewer.asp?ID=2&type=tyres

Seem to have what you want.

Cheeers... Allan.

Thanks, you saved me UKP 12.00. Nice one.

Cheers.

You'll be needing my address then to send the £6 (50/50 I noticed they were cheap. I use armadillos
myself, so might get a couple at that price. Probably last years model or something, but who cares
if you save £12 a tyre!

Oops, UKP 6.00 per tyre, two of them. Still a very good deal compared to you-know-who.

Shame that Bikebrain doesn't work (or maybe it does!).

I just put 'specialized armadillo' into Google and voila! I did wonder what I might get back - not
sure what you can do with an armadillo, let alone a specialized one!)

Blimey, I'd just about given up on Google for finding anything useful. I will report my Specialized
Armadillo results.

Cheers. Michael
