PSA: Ribble Clearance Sale - Shimano Hubs

Hi all,

Ribble has a clearance sale going on, some people may be interested in stocking up on some 32h rim brake Shimano Tiagra RS-400 hubs, with steel freehub bodies:

https://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/rs400...2h-10-11sp-sh/

https://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/rs400...lackfront-32h/

A replacement freehub (as I found out the hard way myself) is £28.00, a complete rear hub is going for £9.99 and front hub is £7.99.

Good deal for UK members, not too sure how it would work out if one's abroad, when it comes to shipping, taxes, etc. but definitely worth a look.

Cheerio

Looks like receivership to me by review of the site behavior and pricing.

Very possible, considering Wiggle/CRC and many others seem to be in the same situation. I have ordered some 11s chains from Wiggle on Thursday, for a steal at £8 each, however, I fully expect an email apologizing for something or other/ items not available, before my order is actualy dispatched.

edit: my Wiggle order was posted today, really chuffed about it

You know what? $28 for a pair of 32 hole cup n cone hubs with skewers is a pretty darn good deal.
Don’t really ‘need ‘ them but bought a pair anyway. Parts, if nothing else.

Yep. Dismal bike market, Brexit, flakey supply line seem to be hitting Chain Reaction Cyc and Wiggle. Wiggle / Nukeproof sponsor gave no warning to a pro mtb racer with a two year contract as they pulled out just before an event. They're owned by Signa Sports.

There were a handful of things the site showed as still available that I bought for stock. Their cheap faux Brooks saddle was $5.06, can't beat it $21 shipping to US so hopefully they don't cancel a bunch of the order and I end up paying all that shipping for a $4.05 pedal wrench. We'll see...
