Got New Bike

[Katana]

Guys pleased to say I received my new bike(Ridley Fenix SLA 105) today from Evans. Definitely a bargain at £599😊
Apparently the staff at Evans mentioned that they run some kind of an algorithm for pricing to establish the lowest price point now and then. According to them I must have placed the order at that point because soon after the prices were reverted back.
I worked out that if I was to buy the bits i.e. frame, wheels & groupset etc separately even on 50% sale price it would have added upto £1300 roughly. So well chuffed with it however justifying it to Mrs when she returns back from work will be altogether a different matter😂

Nice

Score - can't find any prices for the groupset alone but it can't be much less than the total cost of the bike

Good evening,

I saw some of those Ridley prices and wondered if something had gone wrong as in the same sale there were some good prices on Specialized but nothing to make me buy a bike I didn't really want or need.

But even today this is available and in M, I presume Medium not Minute (tiny).

Just one question, why didn't you buy two?

I bought seven locks when they were on sale. https://www.cyclechat.net/threads/bicycle-lock-recommendations.299343/post-7269753

Bye

........... and drat now that you have reminded me.

I was tempted to buy both models 105 and Ultegra with carbon frame but it would have meant sleeping rough😜😂
