I "had" to buy a couple things last night, and spent some time comparing Wiggle vs. CRC vs. Local Bike Store...

I needed some inexpensive tires for my vintage bike, new tubes, new brake pads for my 105 focus, and a water bottle cage.

So i went with the following:
2 x Vittoria Rubino Clinchers
2 x Conti tubes
1 x SwissStop Flash Pro Black (2 pairs)
1 x Elite Bottle Cage

1.) CRC totalled $82.20 CAD + $9.99 CAD shipping = $92.19 CAD shipped

2.) Wiggle totalled $83.08 CAD including FREE shipping

3.) Local bike store totalled $160.00 including tax

So i went with the obvious choice, Wiggle, placed the order last night at 7pm. Order was processed and shipped out this morning at 1:32am with a tracking number. Scheduled to arrive next Friday the 8th.

How do you beat that!?!?!
