Bought some stuff from Ribble
Hello,
I thought that I would let some of you know about my recent transaction with Ribble. I bought a number of things and got free shipping. Everything was well packed and the prices were great (thanks Gomango for the rec.)
What I was really surprised about was that I placed the order earlier in the week and received it on the 11th...less than 5 days for the total transaction.
Very happy with the shipping time as well as the pricing.
Regards, Ben

Bikes: A green one, "Ragleigh," or something.
"POP"
"Fssshhhh."
"Flurp"
"Frrrip
(The sounds made by those Rallys failing on your first couple rides on them)
But seriously, I hope you have much better luck with them than I did.

Similar experience with Chain Reaction. From Ireland to Chicago in 3.5 days - free shipping/great prices.

Yeah, not sure how exactly how they do it with such fast inexpensive overseas shipping. I've had good luck with ChainReaction, Wiggle, and Merlin too. I've had parts show up faster than domestic parts shipped USPS from the same city, go figure.

Didn't mean to come off like a jerk, and I do sincerely wish you luck with them. I tried the Vittoria Rallys based on "Yeah they're pretty good for the price" heard here, and ignoring a few Jeremiahs who said "they're really fragile and often kind of lumpy."
After 3 flats in 14 miles; you can lump me with the Jeremiahs.
