Hi
Anyone heard or used this site www.cyclingexpress.com, making these bike claims.
Site looks new with limited products at the moment, prices look ok.
Based in Melbourne.

Consensus seems to be they're working hard to make their business succeed. Some niggles but the communication and commitment is good.

I haven't been following it closely as I'm trying not to buy stuff for awhile (after a new bike and other bits purchase recently), but will give them a try some time in the next 6 weeks or so.

Wish I saw this yesterday after just dropping over $200 at CRC. Would have rather supported an Aus company.

CRC sometime irks me with crappy descriptions. Wiggle is better - I want weights and proper descriptions and I love the user feedback - most other sites do not have this including the items i looked at cycling express. if i am buying a tyre I want to know TPI and weight etc etc
Their prices seem very good though - hope they fix their site - there are spaces for the details but the items I checked are empty

I price matched a chain and cassette with Cycling Express. They matched CRC prices and saved me about $20 in postage so very happy.
They responded to my request within one day and you are given a code that has an expiry date.
Products arrived within 3-4 business days so all together a good online purchasing experience.

Wow! I had not heard of that company before. But I just tested a basket of goods that is coincidentally sitting in CRC but as yet unpurchased. Cycling Express was competitive on those same items, plus they price match parts (through Wiggle and CRC) that they don't already have, plus they have free delivery to OZ. Sounds like a great deal to me. I will have to try them.

I'm assuming they only match items which they already have listed on their website?

I'm trying to get some new brake pads, but they don't seem to carry the ones I need ... was hoping i could get them to price match what Wiggle or CRC has =)
