£137 at rosebikes, 30.9 or 31.6, looks like 2011 but apart from hose seems similar to 2012? just ordered one!

DAMMIT! ordered some new brakes I didn’t really need about 2 weeks ago. Should have bought a Reverb.

Tempted to buy a frame one of these would fit 😉

Great psa padrc66 – does anyone know if Fishers will warranty it if i bought from Rose?

Rose do a very good (freepost) warranty service, I’d have no worries about that at all.

What was the main issue with the 2011 reverb? That it needed a bleed out of the box?

The Reverbs that were actually made in 2011 have far less problems than those manufactured in late 2010. There is a manufactured date on the end of the box. Three of us have post Feb 2011 Reverbs and have had none of the problems I have heard about. All three were just bolted on and no bleeding required even when the hose was shortened.
That is an amazingly cheap deal. I paid 170 from Hibike.de and thought I did well. The exchange rate is helping though.

Yes as expected it’s the 2011 model not the 2012 but what a deal.
Here’s the link for the lazy people

It gives the option of 30.9 or 31.6 but no choice of length you can get either 380mm or 420mm. I suppose at that price you get what you are given.

Muchos thanks 🙂

.

Thanks! I couldn’t resist

It’s the 420 model i think by reading the description, doesnt mention the shorter one
Thanks im now skint 😀

Its 420 only stated in the description.

Rs warranty is worldwide so won’t matter which country you bought it from…Fishers will do the warranty work if it is needed. If it isn’t warranty work then they will charge you the price it would cost if the post was bought in uk.

If you go on Facebook hit the like button you get a voucher for 10 euro off! WHINNING!
Cheers!

Bugger, by the time I got through the checkout process it disappeared from my basket and said there were no 30.9s left. 😥

On the positive side it saved me a load of money. 😕

Never looked at Rose BIkes before. Jesus those XT brakes are cheap!

This has been a very expensive week and that didn’t help! On the up side that’s a new seatpost for my new frame 😀

hmmm got a 2012 on reorder for £200 – but no delivery date….. considering a change, is it worth it?

30.9s now out of stock 😥

excellent 🙂

I had been putting off ordering one of them for my covert, but at that price I can’t resist. £10 off too (despite the facebook voucher saying €10)

Dave

edit: mine was a 31.6, the 30.9s were out of stock

30.9 show in stock for me right now

does the 420mm measurement include the 125mm of extended seatpost?

phew – glad the 30.9s are oot of stock! 😀

30.9 in stock at the German site

http://www.roseversand.com/product/detail/aid:488329

aarrrrgghhhh every time it goes into English it deletes my basket!!! And if I end up on the .co.uk site that’s when the 30.9s are out – ragin!!

Even just got my card details in before it kicked me onto the .co.uk site again – wtf??

Same happening with the 31.6 now for me (I’m in Ireland). Oh well.

sold out in both sizes 😥

both now out in the UK……. my first order from Rose hasn’t exactly worked out so well 🙁

damn, too slow! German site says in stock, and I put in basket, but then when I pay, it shows nothing in basket 🙁

My Internet connection failed at the crucial moment. Arse. Didn’t need the bloody thing anyway.

yeah that’s what was happening to me, I guess they only ship to the UK from the UK these days??

Has anyone else had an email saying they are sold out and cant send the order that was placed?
My order went through long before they sold out. Not happy 👿

post arrived today, in original box with bleed kit, etc. manufacturing date 2011 wk 23 so hopefully should be a good’un!

Mine arrived too, with a free gift. Shame I have to wait at least another 4 weeks for my new bike to come before using it.

Haven’t had an email yet to say they can’t fulfil the order i placed friday(when in stock) but it’s not been despatched yet so i’m not hopeful, glad you have yours though, bloody bargain.

@ stevede, i got an email on saturday so looking good for you!

Oops 😕

No they don’t – link please

got marn today, works outa the box ok.

dunno what the red plug and bolt is for with it?

Great price,even for a 2011 model. How UK shops can cope with that I don’t know! 🙂
