Bargain wheels

[Jon H]

How about this for a bargain?

Easton EC90 SLX Carbon Wheel Set £625 @ Wiggle. That's half price!

Put the credit card down. Resist, resist. Arrgh.

[kieran]

that's still £625 !!!

That is a fantastic deal. I've got the EA90 SLX which are aluminium clinchers and they are great wheels.
Just buy them. You'll appreciate the quality long after you've forgotten the price.
These ones are for tubs though.

Good spot

They would be good for the hill climbs! Want to do a time-share?

Jon had been very quiet, I think he's done the deed now, and after a slighly feverish phase just after pressing the "complete order" button, looking around him in the office hoping he was not sweating or looking too red (I know how it feels) he is now awaiting impatiently a parcel from mr wiggle, hopefully before the long weekend, so that he can have a play with the wheels at the weekend.

Im like that with the misses, whenever I order something I have to do it in secret else I just go red and deny doing anything....then I tell her later there maybe a parcel arriving in the next couple of days and can she make sure she's in to sign for it

Nope, not bought the wheels as I couldn't justify having a pair like that just for the weight weenie and bling factor. If I was road racer though it would be another matter.

However, I did get this bargain:

Reduced from a RRP of £500+ down to £149 at Chainreaction

flippin' heck!
and they've got loads of cranksets at -80%

if the wheels were clinchers at that weight (1250gm it seems) it would be an easy choice
but i have aero tubular wheels at 1550gm already
if i were to buy lightweight climbing wheels they would have to be around the 1000gm mark to make it worth it (and I won't cos i know how much they cost)

I learnt everything I know from my misses after spending many an unhappy hour trawling round the fashion boutiques looking for that perfect dress in the sale only to spend the money she saved on yet more shoes because none she has will suit said new dress......she only has herself to blame for my money spending.
