I’ve just palced 3 small orders from 3 online cycle shops, each order has all the parts ‘in stock’ and is between 1-3 items. All to the same delivery address….

Place your bets!

On One
Merlin
CRC

Who will win?

😀

Merlin, then CRC then On One a couple of weeks later.

are any of the parts needed urgently ?

Not particularly, no, but I catch your drift! 😉

CRC – Gloves, Shimano brake fittings
On One – Jersey, T shirt, stem
Merlin – BB

Depends on Royal Mail most likely…

Merlin, CRC, On One.

Ohh, a late wildcard entry fresh in the starting blocks!

A cassette from Triple Butted Cycling on eBay

😉

merlin will defo be there first.

the rest will be random.

I think everybody agrees with the bookies! 🙂

on one will send you two of each.

That would be nice, but they’ve always been OK with me! 🙂

I got a package from CRC today – a set of rotor bolts in a box big enough to put 20 singletrack mags in 😯 The postage must have been more than the £2.99 I paid for the bolts 😛

Merlin will definatley be first. Ordered a mud guard of CRC yesterday but havent even had confirmation dispatch yet so will prob be after the weekend now

surf mat will win.

CRC sent out a chainring a week ago now, still no sign of it.

Are they all by RM or Couriers? I’m just picturing a postie and two couriers doing a LeMans start at the end of your road tommorrow…

As an aside, I ordered 3 maps from The Map Shop in Upton-on-Severn on Friday afternoon and they were in my post box at 10.00am Saturday. Fantastic service 😀

Onone got my frame to me with headset fitted in 2 working days.
Wiggle ordered and dispatched yesterday.

Laydeez and jellyspoons WE HAVE A WINNAH!

The first (And so far only) finisher by a HUGE margin is……..

Drum roll please!

(can you feel the tension?)

Oh come on Davina!

I’m on the edge of my seat!

The clear favourite!

And it’s not even an OE BB! I’ve never had a BB arrive in a proper box before! 🙂

I had a set of XT brakes from them last week (arrived next day) – I was expecting a big bag of bits and a bottle of brake fluid, but no, all bits (including the caliper brackets) came in nice little boxes!

My Joplin came from CRC in a box roughly 50cm square, got all excited then remembered what I was waiting for!

I would’ve gone for CRC, but then I don’t order much from Merlin. Maybe the rush is why they get it wrong so often…

to add to the crc in a big box thing…

I had a grease gun turn up in a huge box the other day… god knows why… maybe someone forgot to order the padded bags they used to use??

me too, an innertube in a box the size of a large pizza.
