Nope, considered getting some bar tape but by the time you've added postage CRC was still cheaper.

there are pics of the s2 stuff, but you have to look on the normal sale area rather than the big list.

set of track hubs for £30 for a rainy day build, spare chain for a fiver for the spares box, a front hub for a pomp (sharing one front wheel bvetween two pomps at the moment! 🙂 ), some oury grips to give them a go and some LX callipers for the spares box for £20.

All for £80. I know its from the school of shopping like a bird, but Ive certainly wanted some new hubs for a while...so I can justify it to myself 🙂

BTW you really do need to view the page in IE or something other than FF as FF does miss off quite a lot of stock for some reason.

i'm not supposed to be buying stuff this month, but it's silly not to with some of those prices for stuff i know i'll need soon anyway (that's what i'm practising saying for when i get home)

Some new SLX chain rings for me and a new LX shifter to replace the one I broke at Penmachno couple of weeks back. Happy days.

Can't figure out what you get and what you don't with the Dinotte stuff.

I ordered some shorts but couldn't find any sizing info so just guessed. I think my old on-one big shorts are an XL and they fit my 36" waist, 6ft 1 height just fine. Hopefully the S2 stuff is similar.

Can't bring myself to order from the site, it's so badly laid out, no pictures, no sizing, awful

Some pics and info can be found on the item details in the main shop (check both O-O and PX sites)

True. There's probably stuff on there I'd like to get, but if they're going to make it hard, then I'll spend my "fun" dosh on itunes instead...

SRAM PC971 chains...

...any good? XT equivalent? Always have Shimano chains but at £11 they seem cheap

6 SLX chainrings, 4 chains, and a casette should see me through the next few years with the other bits I stocked up from merlin before things went as high as they are now

probably better than XT (HG93) imo. Shimano chains seem to snap more and don't 'feel as solid' ime

Yep, sounds good....I'll get a couple.

Bashrings at £15 as well so I'll try one of those

nukeproof - I bought a bashring this week (paid full price - d'oh) and the black one that states it covers a 34t chainring doesn't. So it's going back. Light though.

Got a couple of XC rims and a chain tool. Stupid prices so would buy more but I cannot be bothered to guess the products (and why are you not supposed to use FF?). Oh, well...

well that's pretty ****ing annoying - got the hubs i ordered no probs, got an email today saying "sorry you can't have the cassettes and chains, we've run out".

i realise they probably had hundreds of orders to sort out, but when i ordered them they were listed on the site as having "lots", so they obviously lost my order in the system. rubbish.

Yes, as I discovered having order loads of cassettes and chains (which arrived yesterday, sorry [b]theflatboy[/b]), ther looked again in IE and discovered XT pedals @ £40. Order apair and asked them to tag it on the order I'd already placed, but that's arrived without pedals - wonder if my pedals will arrive?

Carbon roadbike caliper brake for £20. Bloomin cheap (RRP is something like £130 a pair) and something that does actally need replacing!

@ flatboy - I ordered an extra SRAM 950, 11-32 cassette that I don't really need, let me know if you want it and it's yours for the same price as planet-x.

I feel your pain flatboy, just got an email to say the SLX middle ring I ordered isn't in stock - that was the main reason for me ordering a few items in the sale! Oh well 🙁

I've just had a similar email saying my chain and Hozan Chain Tool are not in so cancelled from my order. Not too narked but having two items cancelled and still being charged £5 postage has made it a pretty pointless exercise and wiped out any saving now.

Also just checked credit card and been charged for the stuff when I placed the order. I'm no lawyer but I suspect On-one and I have entered into a contract which they've not fulfilled...
