Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Shiny Bikes vs Ribble - Preference for Groupset?

About to purchase a new groupset from overseas in order to save a little coin and take a step closer to completing my wifes bike build. Both Ribble and Shiny Bikes have a comparable price on the groupset (Shiny Bikes is slightly better). Just wondering if anybody has any experiences purchasing a groupset through either one of these distributors? Any feeback, positive or negative, would be much appreciated.

I've purchased from ProBikeKit numerous times in the past without any issues, but unfortunately their pricing isn't as competitive this go round.
