I know - order mail order ๐Ÿ™‚ Today I needed a small circlip for a tektro brake - I know its the same size as the hope one. Into my LBS [url= http://www.thebikechain.co.uk/ ]The Bike Chain[/url] and yes - they have them in stock in their box of hope spares in the workshop. Sorted.

I had asked another local shop who would have to order it in. this means i can get my mates bike fixed tomorrow to ride Saturday. Otherwise it would have been no ride for him.

We'd all be whingeing about delivery times from CRC.

Oh, wait...

Now you put it like that...seems ok to pay double price for parts so you can get a circlip last minute.

Local bike shop!

And without them you would spend ages waiting for CRC to deliver!
