Have a look at the Merida 903-18, also in that price range

Awesome updates thanks

While on the topic of storage Any idea where i can find a simple 4 bike stand such as this one : http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=39579 ?

I think CWC should add a 'complete bikes' section to the online shop, would certainly do well

Hey, These chews are they also the low GI type? or are they similar to e.g. the energade jellies? Would one use the chews towards eg the end of a race for a boost

Let them know maybe they'll give you a voucher

Hahaa thankfully i wont have to resort to those measures 1:Bikes From cytek/Merida themselves: Guess il be waiting then 2: Online shop Will be sending a courier on monday to pick up the wrong items and deliver the correct ones Was sorted out efficiently

Will give them a call and ask whats the story...They dont sell direct to the public though im guessing?

hmmm i wonder.. :/ they told me they have contacted the supplier and no one has stock of the 903, not even other shops that the supplier has sold to have any left Will give cytek a call

Have tried phoning but they were closed..have emailed them and will see how they deal with the issue..If its not dealt with well will name n shame. Have heard many good things bout them and everyone makes mistakes so il give them the benefit of the doubt

I guess the bike yes thats the suppliers fault stock low recession etc.. But sending 2/5 wrong products on an online order? 40% wrong items? That cant be blamed on the recession lol Zernie , will consider CRC as well now when purchasing online, reason i havent is with all the import duties and extra to pay its just easier to buy locally

Having recently gotten into road cycling, this has been my experience. 1: Ordered 2 bikes from a reputable store. One for my brother and one for me, two different models of the same brand. (Merida road race 903 and 901) . Was told the bikes need to be ordered, so they send through our measurements and the supplier picks the size based on them and sends them the bikes. Only one (the 903) was in stock, drove about 80km to pick it up and another 80km back home. The 901 was received in stock about 2 weeks later, parents were going to be in the area so they picked it up and brought it home, now noticed somethings majorly wrong. The bikes were the wrong sizes, the bigger bike (M/L) was meant to be for my brother (901) , and the smaller (S/M) for me (903). Ended up being the opposite way around, with the 901 being in size S/M and the 903 being size M/L. Which was a bit of a problem. Apparently the suppliers made a mistake and swapped the sizes/models around. Decided to keep the M/L 903 for my bro since we had already used it, and swap out (with extra payin) the S/M 901 for a S/M 903 for me. This bike is apparently now no longer in stock , and it going to take almost a month till they receive stock of the 903. In the meantime, I've still got the (waiting to be returned) 901 at home. Have asked to be given a 2nd hand bike to use for the month, was told they would get back to me by end of yesterday, still waiting for the reply. 2: Ordered 5 products from a reputable online cycle shop. Picked up the package from the post office today, Two out of the 5 products were the wrong items. Had ordered black pedals, received silver. Had ordered a wireless speedo, received the wired version. Im used to spot on delivery of products when ordering PC parts and the like online . Am i just very unlucky?? Or are these type of experiences normal in this industry??

Lol thats a bad quickfix...black sticker on the white rim :/ I'd rather have alexims

Mine says Alexims too! Merida 903-18

Aah okay...No issues, i was just wondering. The rear configuration is as per the picture on the website though, would have thought both would have been the same for aesthetic purposes
