Place has some of the best deals around and free shipping if you spend over $230.00 now . get your stuff in less than a week and you can track your shipment all the way to your door. Super good deals on Shimano products . I have bought 3 sets os 2009 SAINT cranks and I am about to buy a set of 2009 SAINT brakes for about the price of one wheel here in the states .

Remember, took, if your shorthand list of bikes exceeds the maximum number of characters allowed on your profile page it is time to seek professional help ;-)

Thanks for the tip, btw, only a few days late... I'll have the Saint brakes on my new ride hopefully next week.

It's nice to hear some good experiences. I have been eying a set of XT cranks for $160 and some Sidi Dominators for about the same amount. Might just have to pull the trigger.

Just for info, that's equal to EP pricing. Crazy good deal!!

Looked at it, but decided I want a freeride rig. Front derailleur was a must have, otherwise I'd be riding a Demo now.
Fox 40 is on the contemplated items list and will likely have to go on before the Mammoth trip QuitStorm is talking about. Still debating the disadvatanges of a double crown... The brakes were a must, though. Rear deraulleur is short to follow, but all in good time...

And, as Luna said, I still need to grow some balls.

The rig you have now is good for ball growing.

I found them shrink on occasion :-)

Right when I'm about to crap my pants...

yep, it awfully tempting. Having a hard time deciding between the XT's and the SLX. There doesn't seem to be that much difference between the two other than a couple of grams and about $50 savings.

They also have great deals on Hope hoops, Hope hubs laced to DT Swiss 4.2 or 5.1 rims, hand built in the Hope factory for under $400.

Well, closer to 100, but that's hardly significant.

I'm also a big fan of http://wiggle.co.uk minimum is $150. Some items are less than CR.

I just got my goods from CR and Wiggs a couple weeks ago. Shimano goods are the best prices anywhere from the UK. The Beyondbikes guys won't even attempt to price match.

Happy shopping!!!
