meh. I work mate ordered one pair (hence how I heard about the shoes) and I think they have knocked him back too.AUbicycles wrote:On the price error with the Shimano shoes, you could chat with them and see if they are willing to make you a fantastic offer for 1 pair of shoes. Don't know how it would go though would forget the ACCC. While it is nice to think it was a great deal, it is also reasonable that the price may have been an error and that 10 pairs of shoes for personal use is extreme, plus they showed goodwill with the voucher.

Tour10 = 10% off
PBK also has free shipping to Australia right now so might be worth checking.

ZIPP 404
what's the catch? I'm assuming that these are cheap because they're 2011 models and not the latest Firecrest version but this is about what I'd expect to pay for one 404 wheel. Can someone who knows explain what exactly is on offer here and whether it's a bargain?

Plus they are Shimano/SRAM 10spd which are not compatible with the new 11spd DA9000 series being released soon (although they can possibly be upgraded later - TBC)gururug wrote:Market is pretty saturated with deep section wheels at the moment, most people wanting deep zipps want firecrests so they dropped the price point to compete with cheaper competitors and dump stock.

2013 Merida Scultura 905; full carbon; Ultegra; FSA & Fulcrum wheels
Per-order $1999
RRP $2599
http://www.bikeforce.com.au/site_pages/ ... rance-sale
23% off next years model is unheard of IMO...
Cheaper than current specials on 2012 models (though I haven't compared specs)
