[Closed] PSA - King headset £41+post plus cheap pikes ,revs etc etc

Jeez... Those pikes are cheap

Anyone use that site before ? Ok?

yeah heard good things about probikeshop. What I can't remember is if the 'RC' Pikes have the proper damper?

I have used probike a few times no problems ,there are the rtc3 version on the site as well 😀

700 euro .... Rc will do me lol

Legend - had a google

Same damper just not the 3 step, pedal open etc

sold out already anyway 🙁

it looks like i got the last set, hopefully don't get a mail saying it was a mistake or something...

thanks for the PSA peasant - fingers crossed

Cheers OP, new headset ordered. 😀

😀

Think I ordered the last Rev RCT3

Just ordered a headset in Patriot, but I don't really need it. Oh well...

Legend - looks like more stock of the 160 pikes now

Cheers OP 😛

They seem to be very reluctant to take credit card orders. Keep cancelling mine due to some ridiculous 'verification' process. Very frustrating. Certainly don't want to pay via bank transfer as offers no protection.

i used paypal - no issues, forks to arrive tomorrow according to the tracking email 🙂

Will give it a go if they relist the forks....

No issues with probikeshop other than they don't do discount codes as often as they did! Got my Alpine 160 from them.

Yeah,they used to do an extra 5, 10 or 15% code off sale items - not seen them for a while though, which is a shame. I've had some stonking bargains from them previously.

Certainly don't want to pay via bank transfer as offers no protection.

Would the added protection of a credit card even apply aborad?

pikes arrived today as per email...

100%

many thanks OP

I ordered some Lyriks from them, arrived in 2 days.

King headsets all gone! 🙁

Forget that, just seen they're 1.5" 😳

Wow...gutted I missed this PSA. Just to ad I've used Probikeshop in the past, got a great price on a Reverb (PSA on here) was delivered quick too.

my SIDs arrive tomorrow, nice price, great PSA,

no issues with CC order,

used them before to buy a blur ltc frame - came with 20% back to spend online - great shop

Went for the transfer. Revs on their way....

Only just cut the steerer down on my brand new pikes. I thought I had got them at a good price. If only I'd waited two weeks

Pikes are on, wasn't too sure about them in white but they look ace 😀

Mine are in the cupboard.... Away for a couple of weeks at 3 today so gives me a wee job to look forward to when I get home 🙂

So it turns out my headset is the wrong standard. Tapered steerer does not mean tapered headtube.

Off to eBay...

can you explain what you mean?

I gather these Kings for sale on the link are a standard 1.125" upper cup with an oversize 1.5" lower?
I'm wondering if these fit the new Cotic headset standard, for example.

If so, a right bargain. Wish I snapped up a Mango.

34mm internal diameter up top, and 49mm (I think) at the bottom. I've got a zero stack 44mm headtube so this won't work in it.

However, a black one of what I've got sold for £80 on eBay yesterday, so I should make my money back.

Do we know if these forks are OEM?

They come in a plain cardbox box, if that helps?

Thanks - I suspect they are OEM then. I think the only difference is no pump and the plain box anyway.

34.9 /420 Stealth reverb - absolute bargain as well.

Wowzer!

Despite my cynicism they arrived in good time. I ordered the white RCT3 so I was pretty [s]surprised[/s] delighted when they turned out to be stealth black with black uppers.

Try alltricks.fr for other good deals at the mo on some RS forks

These are not OEM either I think

well that was an expensive 10 minutes

What did you get?

bloody pikes!

I ordered some pikes on Saturday using my credit card and haven't heard anything from provokeshop apart from receiving an order processing email (on Saturday) which stated they had accepted my payment.
Checked my online banking today and it says the payment is pending, so rang the bank and they said they have accepted the payment, and it is probikeshop who need to accept the payment.

I have tried ringing but due to my lack of French has got me nowhere, and no replies to my emails.

Has anyone else had the same issues? How long after your order did you get an confirmation email with delivery dates etc...

Any help would be great!
