I've just palced 3 small orders from 3 online cycle shops, each order has all the parts 'in stock' and is between 1-3 items. All to the same delivery address....
Place your bets!
On One
Merlin
CRC
Who will win?
😀
Merlin, then CRC then On One a couple of weeks later.
are any of the parts needed urgently ?
Not particularly, no, but I catch your drift! 😉
CRC - Gloves, Shimano brake fittings
On One - Jersey, T shirt, stem
Merlin - BB
Depends on Royal Mail most likely...
Merlin, CRC, On One.
Ohh, a late wildcard entry fresh in the starting blocks!
A cassette from Triple Butted Cycling on eBay
😉
merlin will defo be there first.
the rest will be random.
I think everybody agrees with the bookies! 🙂
on one will send you two of each.
That would be nice, but they've always been OK with me! 🙂
I got a package from CRC today - a set of rotor bolts in a box big enough to put 20 singletrack mags in 😯 The postage must have been more than the £2.99 I paid for the bolts 😛
Merlin will definatley be first. Ordered a mud guard of CRC yesterday but havent even had confirmation dispatch yet so will prob be after the weekend now
surf mat will win.
CRC sent out a chainring a week ago now, still no sign of it.
Are they all by RM or Couriers? I'm just picturing a postie and two couriers doing a LeMans start at the end of your road tommorrow...
As an aside, I ordered 3 maps from The Map Shop in Upton-on-Severn on Friday afternoon and they were in my post box at 10.00am Saturday. Fantastic service 😀
Onone got my frame to me with headset fitted in 2 working days.
Wiggle ordered and dispatched yesterday.

Drum roll please!

And it's not even an OE BB! I've never had a BB arrive in a proper box before! 🙂
I had a set of XT brakes from them last week (arrived next day) - I was expecting a big bag of bits and a bottle of brake fluid, but no, all bits (including the caliper brackets) came in nice little boxes!
My Joplin came from CRC in a box roughly 50cm square, got all excited then remembered what I was waiting for!
I would've gone for CRC, but then I don't order much from Merlin. Maybe the rush is why they get it wrong so often...
to add to the crc in a big box thing...
I had a grease gun turn up in a huge box the other day... god knows why... maybe someone forgot to order the padded bags they used to use??
me too, an innertube in a box the size of a large pizza.
