  1. Mein provide free UPS shipping, delivery in 1 week.
  2. Cash dependent, I would not buy the 7900 as the 11\10 speed is a major upgrade cost if you plan to keep the groupset a fair time.
  3. I bought the 9000 groupset on sale from Merlin. Best price I could find.
  4. Perhaps we should do a collection for his flight costs?
  5. WTF, did you survive your second interrogation- this thread ??
  6. I still don’t see the need. I have many sub 3 hour races in both the wet and dry. Brakes are not the issue as my dura ace units are strong, grip on wet and dry roads is the issue. Disks will simply add weigh, Cycle cross is a different issue, disks will help a lot.
  7. I dont see the need. What next 1.5 inch tyres for better grip?
  8. XTR is powerful bling!
  9. Only roadies are culturally against greeting.... Mtb return a greeting, roadies seem unable.
  10. You need a checker, generally a XT chain will last 1500 + dependent on mud / dust / cleaning conditions. Cassette and rings last 5+ chains provided your don't run worn chains.
  11. Carbon rims on a silverback? Over capitalizing?
  12. I ride 2 BMC bikes, will buy a 29er from them in the new year.
  13. My dura ace 9000 group set will be delivered tomorrow. Cannot wait!!!! Then I build my bike. Then I sit on chair and stare. Than I ride. Then I wash bike.
  14. Enjoy the rest!! I have had my shoulder repaired, arm has now been in a sling for 3 weeks, 1 to go. Against doc's orders- I have managed 7 hours a week on the stat trainer. I have 4 slings for my arm as I sweat up a flood.
  15. Thanks guys. Double discount ends monday.
  16. Thanks. Looking to spend a few grand. Worried about std mail. The site does state UPS...
  17. I wish to purchase a groupset from Merlin Cycles in the UK. I have a few questions- 1) Has any body used them before? 2) Good or bad experiences? 2) The site offers UPS shipping, 1 to 3 days. Is this true?? I have used DHL from chain reaction and seen a week from order to delivery. Thanks
  18. The only thing standard about my 4 bikes is the wheel size. I choose to build as each and every part is to my standard and wants.
  19. Simple, led lenzer
  20. No reason why a 10 shifter won't work on a 9 speed cassetts. Come now
  21. I have 2 sets of slr's and one set of eastons. Slr's are the best in my 20 years of racing.
  22. Duraace 9000, I may well "play" santa!
  23. Mine took 2 weeks, as good as new!
  24. Loads of beach sand in RB best to travel to Zini or kwambo.
  25. Simple, ensure your seat is at least 2 inches higher than your bars.
