Wondering if anyone has used this website for ordering bike stuff in the past?
If so - what's the delivery time like etc?

Found some Conti GP4000S tyres for €26.95 which seems a steal - but wondering if it's too good to be true.

I've ordered from it before, took about 10 days to arrive. Had no issues with them.

I paid €30 for the same tyre in my local shop. Not sure where they're getting their RRP of €49.90....

Anyway, I've heard good things about them so you should be ok. Never ordered from them myself.

Ordered stuff of them last year no bother took a couple of days but parts were correct which is more important

Me too. Every now again they do a sale on conti tyres too and its worth stocking up!

Ditto - used them for a club tyre buy earlier this year, no problem recommending them.

€30 off your local shop is better value than bike-dsicount.de, as don't forget to factor in delivery charges

Really interested to know what local bike shop is offering them for €30 each? I've been to a few around here and they're all at €40+ each - same as on Wiggle and CRC.

Roche Cycles, Mitchelstown, Co Cork

Now that I think of it, they sell them for €33, but my good customer discount brought them down to €30

I've bought off of bike-discount.de before as they were cheapest for the rollers I wanted, even with delivery charges. Of course, I negated any saving by ordering extra things, but their delivery was prompt, correct and well packed.

You can never have too many bike related things

I bought a bike from them a while back. I can't remember how speedy the delivery was but there were issues which they could have dealth with better.

I ordered conti tyres from them last year, and I've ordered other stuff from them also. You'll have no problems - very prompt delivery times (3-4 days). Excellent service.

Last time I ordered from them I got my delivery in about 5 working days, got a set of 24mm conti gp's for €36 delivered, they are lovely tyres.

Mr Velo

Thanks all.

One final question in relation to the tyres i linked to - they are listed as being 622mm - now obviously these are different to the 700 x 23c listed on the likes of Wiggle and CRC?

Mr Velo

Doh.... excuse my thickness.... answered my own question.

622 is 700:)

Unregistered.

Anybody interested in a group order for these?
