In theory yes, similar feed. Got to get the dinner on though just now 🙂

Don't worry about it, I took a look at the page source and found the stock level myself.

For anyone interested just open the page source and do a CTRL-F for quantity, the line will look something like this:

{"inStock":true,"isStockLevelLow":false,"quantity":30}

So there are 30 sets of the trekking bars left.

It's clunky but handy if you find something on CRC that's missing from the Wiggle stock check, not as cool as MTBroutes effort though!

{“inStock”:true,”isStockLevelLow”:false,”quantity”:30}

So there are 30 sets of the trekking bars left.

I think this more likely is the code that displays the low stock warning if the stock is under 30 not that there is 30 bars left. Could be wrong.

I tried it out on something and sure enough that's how many it let me put in my basket so it should work.

Both sites have a max of 30 items allowed in basket now. Previous version of sites didnt, so you could keep upping the qty until you saw what their actual stock was

Ok that really really really was my last CRC order!*

I had a few bits that I had been keeping an eye on in the hope of one last reduction (all had big quantities in stock, thank MtbRoutes, so was in no rush) but if they are now looking at securing a job lot buyer I wanted to get in before the weekend as I am nervous that they may not be here much longer now. I even used the savings the 10extra code gave me to cover the cost of next day delivery as I don’t fancy having an order sitting as pending for a few days at this stage.

*ok there is a saddle I am considering if it goes to a stupid price, so might be one last hurrah yet.

Those Doyenne wheels have returned.   9 sets, apparently.

Wonder if they want to give the impression that they have a limited quantity,  so that people will jump on them as it might appear to be their last chance to buy them?

While I'm very sad to see Wiggle and CRC go, I am quite looking forward to the term 'chiggle' disappearing forever

Nah there are products with 2 or 3 in that response and you can only add 2 or 3 to basket. It's how the site works.

I suspect they're just finding that a box of "wheels" is not wheels so knocked the whole lot out of stock until they recounted them

Is everyone picking up a (practically) free CRC branded water bottle on the way out? They'll be a priceless collector's item one day, a Mint Sauce keyring for the 2030s.

https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/p/chain-reaction-cycles-water-bottle

Both 700ml and 700ml sizes available.

Im glad I got me emailing confirming parcel out with Evri today

Good luck with that. Mine for delivery 2nd of March has stalled. Claire at evri is frustrated at its lack of progress.

Thx @MtbRoutes just saw some of the Primavera rim brake wheels back in stock, so ordering for the third time, cause others keep getting cancelled. Ordered next day delivery as I can't imagine they will be trading for much longer given the stock levels.

I have 2 orders processing since Tuesday. Will see if they actually go through, but am half expecting not to get them

Got my order from about 1.5 weeks ago yesterday.

Took more than a week for the dispatch notice. I'm expecting a similar timeframe on my final order.

Both flavours of Nukeproof Horizon Carbon cage are £4.49 (you have to add it to your basket and then the discount code to get the price)

I ordered wheels last night at 7pm, and they have just been delivered by Parcelforce...

Honestly, bar the pricing I wouldn't know any difference. The service has still been amazing.

Hoping my order does go through. Still processing from Sunday. Stuff I need, and nothing I don't. Two 10 speed chains - one is to go straight away on the CX bike, then a Spare UN300 BB, that's for the commuter, although the current UN300 seems to be lasting longer than the previous UN54/55's I've had before (on this bike).

Service is good. I had an order go missing at the Evri depot. Used the chat facility on Monday to try and chase it up. They said they will check.  Email today saying it's being refunded. Really needed the parts but I can't fault the service from the whole team in really difficult circumstances.

The lifeline pro wheel truing stands are down to 50 stirlings now, so 45 with the 10 extra code. I was optimistically hoping they'd go a bit lower, and maybe they will - but there was only about 100 left, and I don't want to miss out.

So that's my final CRC order done. Probably.....

Either, sympathy and a massive well done to all the staff  caught up in this.

I ordered the Lifeline truing stand on Wednesday evening using both EXTRA10 and 10EXTRA on the same basket (it only gave me 10% off once but I wasn't sure which would actually work). No dispatch notification but I had a parcelforce text this morning and it has shown up. 24 hour delivery even though I didn't pick the expedited option.

I've only used a Minoura stand before but by comparison the Lifeline is really nice quality, very heavy and able to make nice fine adjustments to the axle width and calliper position.

I've tested and found that the stand can indeed be used with a 148mm hub and a cheapo thru axle adapter when you wind it out to its widest setting. It isn't quite as designed but the wheel spins straight and aligns well with the calliper.

Shown is a 27.5" rear wheel, I think a 29" would fit with tyre also but I didn't bother testing.

I really rate Lifeline tools and accessories. I think they were a CRC brand, I'm going to miss those.

My basket doesn't show any of the items as out of stock, but if you click through to the product pages some are gone and some show out of stock. I'm not going to risk it, I think this is the end.

Will my last order from a couple of days back make it to delivery? I'm not confident

Do you rate that lifeline stand above the minoura then? I've had the minoura for years, but it isn't that great. Have always fancied a park but can't really justify it

they've had a few of these stock/website wobbles recently.  I've got an interesting one at the moment with an item in my basket showing I could by up to the 30 limit and I can get all the way to check out but go to the product page and it's out of stock.  The sites normally resolve themselves after a while.

I recon Planetx or Mike Ashley have bought the droppers.
If anyone bought an extra external 100mm dropper they don’t want…

I'm no wheel building expert but the Lifeline one is definitely sturdier and feels a step up in quality. It doesn't have the radial trueness thingy that the Minoura has but I was a bit puzzled why they had that in the place as I figured you could just adjust the calipers downward to do the same job.

I don't know how it compares to the Park, but I'm very happy that it'll serve my needs.

Yep, on CRC lots of 404 "we've taken you down the wrong trail" messages when trying to click on products that (notionally at least) still in stock. Have to wonder if the last orders we'd made will come through or just get cancelled now

Just placed another last order. headset press for £27. rude not to when i got charged more to fit my last one.

Do you think they are about to pull the plug on new orders- has seller been found for all remaining stock - that was this week?

My order of Prime carbon XC bars (£15 instead of £110) and an Ultegra cassette (£34) arrived no issues.

Most stuff now is very limited sizes, lots of clicking on links only to find it saying out of stock (even though you've selected "in stock only" filter).

Just noticed the delivery times from earlier this week are 26th march. I should have gone next day, but hey-ho.

Jeez, what’s wrong with me. I logged on to verify the reports that the website is falling apart, saw that it indeed it is, became convinced they won’t be there by Monday morning, but spotted a bargain shacket in my size and ordered it…

can’t believe it’s nearly over. Trying to workout when my first order was. My nukeproof neutron pedals on the old 26”er are I think at least ten if not fifteen years. Not sure.
