    Hi all, just had my rear wheel damaged at the weekend. I have my mind on a new set, only to find everyone in the UK seems to have them out of stock.
    I have stumbled on the German retailer bike discount.de and they seem to have them at a great rate saving £50+ on anything offered here in the UK.
    I have checked the usual forums as well as here but no one seems to have bought anything as fragile as a wheel set. Does anyone have any experience of them for buying wheels of any kind?

    I bought a (not cheap) DT

    I bought a (not cheap) DT Swiss ARC 1100 62mm wheelset from bike discount.de and it arrived within a week with no issues at all.

    Since this thread was first posted tax on imports has changed – this may affect ordering from them (I don’t really know).

    I’ve had brilliant service from them many times. You must have been unlucky.

    BTW, epic dredge!

    I wish I would read other

    I wish I would read other bike-discount.de costumers reviews before order something in this store. Everything went wrong from the beginning. Shipping delays, damage order, and the final nonsense: They send to me a replacement instead the refund that I was claimed. So many mistakes make me think everything can’t be fortuity.

    Wonder if it was down to one of the road.cc database burps bringing it back to the surface ?

    If people are going to
    If people are going to resurrect old threads rather than start a new one, nobody gets to huffily say “we’ve already discussed this on, like, loads of threads already”.

    Ha ha ha. What is this beef
    Ha ha ha. What is this beef with resurrecting threads from the dead? If there are folk who want to contribute, let ’em on. The OP might not give two hoots any more but it’s still a valid question. Provided discount.de still exists…then you would have a point.

    I have used them without problem too. Wiggle also agreed to price match them on a Garmin I bought at the end of last year – in case they have the item in stock and you have any concerns about buying overseas.

    QUick and communicative, even for just general inquires about produtts. And they have a “price alert” (“seen cheaper?”) button as well 🙂

    I used them earlier in the year, the delivery was about 4-5 days and all went very well. Got a LS Gabba for £97, bargain

    Used a few times and no problems, am considering a Bike purchase from them, just a bit wary on how it will arrive though… Again, more worried with UK delivery service than German.

    Just bought tyres from them and brilliant service, arrived in 3days, almost 20 quid cheaper than most places and great comms with tracked. Will use again

    Just for completeness if any
    Just for completeness if any one is interested. Did order my new Fulcrums from Bike Discount and found them great. Don’t bother paying extra for DHL though, it ends up with Parcelforce In the UK and they couldn’t even be bothered to fill out the full tracking number on the missed delivery card when I missed delivery, so it was a pain in the arse to track them down in the local depot. Other than that would use them again.
