Is CRC the best bike shop out there,I can order one day from them and get it delivered next day to Scotland free.How good is that.Local shop said it would take 10 days to get new back brake.

What's wrong with Wiggle? Really good customer services, good prices, good kit and very reliable on postage. Even though their up the road from me they are just as quick delivering to me as they are to my brother in law in Wales

To be fair, Wiggle's stock info is always accurate and I've never had a mistake made by them. CRC's prices are usually better and the things they stock are amazing - numerous small spares you just can't find anywhere else.

I used to use Wiggle alot, but found CRC to be better priced, better stock and have equally good service (up to now anyways).

Wiggle used to be my first stop, now their prices aren't quite as good as CRC and I find their website takes a little too long for me (I'm impatient)

Nothing but good things to say about winstanleys and ukbikestore as well. Had some issues with jejames ordering stuff over weekend to be notified things out of stock a few days later.

CRC also run a price match, so even if you find it cheaper it's not a problem. They've pretty much got it sown up imo

UK Bike Store are pretty good too - online stock levels and a 'despatched on (insert day of the week here)' indication for stuff not immediately available.

yep. crc are good, as are ukbikestore, as are parkers.
one that's a bit dodgy is dotbike - they don't seem to understand the meaning of 'in stock'.
