Yeah, proper “made in britain” success story, Works are. Also imo Works deserve a lot of credit for being the first to blow open the narrow/wide thing, they were the first aftermarket option. Though AB were the first with the n/w oval I think?
Having a bit of bother with AB right now as it happens; ordered an “in stock” chainring and ordered new cranks the same day for it. Then it turns out not to be in stock. They’ve just got a UK supplier so I asked, will the UK supplier have any? No, say AB, you’ll have to wait, and buy it from us (which incidentally is more expensive). Today it turns out the UK supplier DOES have them. First world problem obviously but that’s all mildly irritating, I’m still riding around on a knackered crank because of all this bollocks.
