Just come across a new bike shop up in New Brighton http://www.offtherockcycles.co.uk/

...they appear to have some good deals, does anyone have any experience from buying (bikes) from them?

Worried about the old adage 'if it looks too good to be true...' ๐Ÿ˜•

FoxyR, I've had a look, those fields don't appear to be blank on my PC and the 'about us' is on the home page.
I rang them this morning regarding a particular bike, 'the boss was out' and the guy I was speaking to had just started in the last couple of weeks!
The bike I am after is 'not stocked but would be ordered in by early next week', which surprised me a bit as it's a 2008 spec...
...they're about 50 quid cheaper than a CRC discounted bike

Oh on the Front page at the top there is:

Off the Rock Cycles, New Brighton, Wirral. ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Perhaps they are getting it from another shop/supplier not from importer?

Sorry Friday and I have gone computer screen blind - look everywhere and can't see it ๐Ÿ™

...the boss has just called me, the screen price for the particular bike I was looking at was an error - web designer will be getting a kicking no doubt!
Nice bloke, sounds genuine...
