    Now that I'm sorted with the hardware, the credit card needs to flex some muscles and buy some clothing - any recos on the best sites to purchase from - just placed an order for a top and shorts from Aero Tech Designs and got free delivery - anyone use these guys before?

    The two that I use the most are:
    www.chainreactioncycles.com (free delivery)
    www.wiggle.com (free delivery)

    But you can get some great deals if you have a root around the smaller shops like:
    www.bikedock.com
    www.leisurelakesbikes.com

    Also if you find an item you like, sometimes it is worth going to the manufacturers site and seeing if they have it on special there.

    Just make sure when you are ordering on line that you check out the sizing chart for the brand in question. Not all XL or L etc. are the same. A quick Google will bring up most sizing charts.
    I've used Prendas, Wiggle & CRC & all were fine.

    I recently bought the HTC Colombia gear from ebay. I didn't use cyclingdeal but I think alot of them are the same place. €32 inc p&p it arrived 2 weeks later from China. Looks great and well padded. If you are getting them get a size bigger, I would squeeze into a medium on a good day so I got the large and its fine. Check ebay don't just buy from the ebay shops.

    The Cyclingdeal site is all bootleg stuff, same as the ebay stuff but twice the price.
