Chain reaction also have 29er WTB frequency rims at i19 and i23 for 25 quid each. The i23s I have on the big bike and they've proved to be extremely tough, used for riding around and uplift days.

I've bought a pair of the i19s and am planning on swapping them out for the superstar rims on my roadrat, which are so tight that almost no tyres seem to fit. They should make a very good general purpose bashing about wheel and the WTB tubeless 'system' has worked pretty well for me so far. Add in some of those nice new WTB exposure tyres and they should make for something pretty useful.

Where's the "Like" button :-bd

And the way the £ is against the $ and everyone putting their prices up, right now that offer is a bit of a bargain that may not come back for a while.

And yes I am biased

Because of Go Outdoors cr@p system the nearest medium was in Stoke, reserved it as I was in the area this morning working. Got there and the 2 medium ones they had in stock according to their system were no where to be found.
So after a chat with the manager Martin I walked away with the better coloured (IMO) grey one for £44 rather than the £99 #Result

Shamelessly stolen from STW!

Half price Laminas at Black's. 35 and 20 models for ~£65 plus 15% extra with code NEW15 and various other codes if you spend £80+ iirc i.e. spend another tenner and get a tenner off! Might even get something from quidco.

Aaah I can. It'd cost me a frameset as well.

Decathlon have 700 bib shorts at 25 quid again, in slightly more restrained colours than the blue-and-pink-trimmings I had last year. Missed buying a second pair last year, so this time I've bought two! Done solid work on the commute, recommended.
