Anyone know the cheapest place to buy one of the Rock Shox Reverb seatposts?

Notice a few places in the States selling them for £168 or thereabouts, but guessing that they will be subject to import tax etc?

Rosebikes UK seems to be the cheapest at £228 that I can find over here. After a 31.6mm one.

Are CRC still doing the vouchers?

I'll have to have a look at their offers, i did stop using them so much as Rose Bikes and the other german sites, along with On One's great deals on parts meant that they were no longer the cheapest for many bits.

Thanks all.

something to bear in mind... those cheap links are to 2011 reverbs - afaik they have changed a few bits for the 2012 (like the connection from hose to post as it was vulnerable)

Thanks Alfabus.

Are the changes worth paying the extra £70-80 for?

Anything's got to better than my old Joplin seatpost, I have to service every time i ride and even then it is rubbish.
