IRO delivery time

Does anyone know how long it normally takes for IRO to deliver a wheelset?

I don't expect it today, since i only ordered it on Sunday, but I am still going crazy what with not having a bike.

Seems to me like he usually gets stuff out the next day. Depends how busy he is right now, I guess.

That is a really good idea. I think I'll try that.

So I talked to Tony, who was very nice, and he said it'll probably ship tomorrow. I'm probably going to have to leave work early to work on my bike once it arrives.

Yeah, my frame arrived yesterday. I'll need a BB tool and some help figuring out the headset, I have absolutely no idea how threadless systems work and I probably need an Integrated one. If you can help me with those that would be awesome, otherwise I'm going to hit the co-op on Saturday.

My hubs arrived a few business days after my order; it seemed like longer because there was a weekend between order and delivery.

Good guy, that Tony.

in my experience with IRO things tend to ship fast and communication is top notch.

however, i've emailed tony 3 times about a replacement axle nut for my rear wheel, with no response.

what gives??
