Some good bargains, also bought a Pro Turnix saddle for £16.15, great for the cross build 🙂

Blimey, buy out all remaining stock, sell the surplus and hand in your notice at work! 😈

Had some last year, used for about 400 miles thought they were bobbins, thin walls, pinched easily, not much cop in the mud, still managed to be slightly draggy though...

YMMV of course, and a pair of tyres for a fiver isn't a deal to be sniffed at I suppose...

Just got an email saying they can't account for stock and they don't actually have any I.e. it's a website and they sold out but didn't update it.

Understandable but the cynic in me says it's a typical leading deal to draw punters in. Wonder what the actual stock figure was at that price.

Just to stir it up a bit, I ordered 4, and 3 arrived last week. Today I had an email cancelling the 4th one due to lack of stock, followed closely by a 'shipped' email for it.

We'll see if it ever turns up...
