Really need to finish my Spur build and leaning towards XT. Merlin always offer good value but is anywhere else worth trying? Had a scan over the Euro sites as well as Treadz, LL, Stif etc. Oh, and any GX cassettes for sub £150?
Bike parts.co.uk formally Woolley hat?

Thanks team. Had briefly looked on Bike.Parts but closer inspection shows some savings.
I bought an 'Airdrop' branded cassette (ebay) for about half the price of an eagle GX and it seems to be doing the job just fine so far
Sigma Sports, SJS Cycles, Tredz, Halfords, Banana Industries? 🤣
What a world we live in without the original Wiggle, Chain Reaction, Pro Bike Kit, Planet X etc.

Honestly, I think this more than anything is what makes me feel old these days...
Deviate had some offers on XT kit.
Your local shop might get close? And for sure they need our support.
Tredz are also worth a look, as well as BikeInn (though I've sometimes had long delivery times for the latter).
Thanks again. Unfortunately all but one of my LBS have closed and the one remaining doesn't really cover our kind of kit.
Already looked at Tredz and BikeInn but not Sigma, SJS or Banana so will check them out.
Yeah, CRC suddenly don't seem so bad! 😬
Balfes bikes is another I've not seen mentioned. They took over the Evans distribution centre and adjoining retail unit.
Halfords will price match, which is good if you want stuff quickly and have a local store that can get them delivered next day without the hassle of "sorry you were out".

That could change things, cheers!
Thanks for all the replies. Managed to kit out my Spur between Merlin, Biketart, Hopkinson and Bikeparts.uk. Now to get it built up!
Oh, and Fawkes for the saddle. 😀
