Hi George,
Thanks for the above shop info; I will give them a try and let you know how I get on.
With regards to the UK pricing; please excuse my laziness but have a quick look over the below that I posted on this site in response to a similar query after the review of Soul’s S2.0 wheelset – The S2.0’s retail for £575.00 so everything is proportionately higher for the CA5.0.
'To add to the above comment above for TimB; Tim is absolutely right these wheels have been offered directly from Soul for $500.00, this cost includes shipping but excludes Import Duty, VAT and Clearance Charges, these costs along with the expense of stocking in the UK so that there is product available to the ever growing team of dealers, keeping a demo fleet of most models and extending Soul’s standard 1 year warranty to 2 years with the first year including bearing wear and any required truing. When all of these extra costs are taken into account I think an RRP of £575.00 is a lot easier to relate to, especially when considering the thick end of £100.00 of that is VAT!'
Please believe me when I say that no one is being in any way greedy but if you have any further queries regarding the prices please feel free to let me know.
Thanks again
Adam
Not sure suggesting Evans is that helpful!
Velosport in putney (run by a couple of Kingston wheelers) or Surbiton cycles, run by an ex spesh worker and now with two shops.
I've just seen the CA5.0 are going to be £850, can we still get them mail order from singapore for £500!
Brilliant, thanks.
Just to give all of you who have suggested stores over the last few months a little update; most of the stores have been contacted and we have had various feedback (largely positive) but we have received no business yet but it's looking like that might change very soon!! As any of the suggested stores place orders I will get in contact with the forum user that suggested them to confirm their discount - the shop will already know. Where you don't have an email contact in your details I will post on here and you can contact me
Thanks again
Adam
Try Race Scene on Sheffield Road in Barnsley. Top banana!
Evans cycles at St Paul's next to my work place, they're all lovely people... go on and give them a visit.
Ohhh I almost forgot my local bike shop - BC Bikes - in East Dulwich
Thanks for the suggestions.
Andylul, have you had chance to pop in and see the Soul Wheels? They are fantastic value especially when compared to their competition.
Cheers Adam
Revel Outdoors in Bury St Edmunds. Great little shop.
For all you track riders and single speed cyclists I am intending to supply some custom soul wheels on track hubs. If anyone is interested then please get in touch either on the forum or via my website.
Thanks for all the suggestions guys I'll be sure to let you know how it goes.
To anyone who hasn't recommended their favorite LBS; please go ahead
Thanks

Hi,
For all you riders interested in Soul wheels my website is live and you will be able to order wheels as of next week. I am carrying the entire range and I believe we should have stock of everything within the next 2 weeks. I am offering a few opening deals which will be advertised on the site. All of the wheels will be delivered free of charge anywhere in the UK and will be backed by Souls 2 year warranty as well as the excellent crash replacement service. I am also looking for ideas on other bike related items that are not readily available on the web so any suggestions would be very welcome. I am not interested in competing with the Wiggles or Ribbles of the cycling world but would rather focus on a smaller selection of quality items. The web address is www.racewheelsdirect.co.uk please be aware that the site is not fully functional yet so apologies in advance for any links that dont yet work.

Oh, Wills Wheels might be interested as well. Stockport road, Cheshire.
Thanks for the suggestion notfastenough, I'll contact Royals and get in touch with you if it proves successful.
MGB, London is a problem for us at the moment, we are talking to a few shops but have nothing firm. Mellow Miles in Horley near Gatwick and AW Cycles in Reading are both dealers and not too far from London (depending where you are), check with them to confirm which models they have in stock but I think AW have some S4.0 and Mellow Miles have some CA5.0. Either of these two shops can arrange a demo of either model for you. We have just started working with www.racewheelsdirect.co.uk who are carrying stock of all Soul models and if you would like to arrange a demo before buying from Race Wheels Direct please drop us a line on sales [at] asd.uk.com
The RRP of S4.0 is £585.00 and the CA5.0 is £850.00, these price are inclusive of our comprehensive 2 year warranty.
Thanks for the interest
Adam
I was going to suggest Nigel at Mellow Miles (he sponsors my club, Team Cake Cycling), but looks like someone beat me to it.
Sadly, even with 5% discount, these are way out of my price range
Royles in Wilmslow, Cheshire.
Anywhere in London selling these? What does a set of the S4.0 or the CA5.0 retail at in the UK? thanks
Come on, there's got to be more than 2 shops out there that you'd be happy ro recommend...
Remember you get 5% off any purchase of Soul Wheels from the shop that you recommend!!
Cheers for the input guys, really appriciated.
Keep them coming and remember to stick your email address on to get your discount...
Pearsons in Sutton. I really like the way they combine the big consumer bike store out front with the specialist pro store out back where you're more than likely to be served personally by one of the owners.
"BC Bikes" in East Dulwich. They support our club with discounts and the occasional free repair before a club ride and are just all round nice guys.
The Soul wheels look ace BTW, keep up the good work!
