Best price on new Shimano 105 5800 hubs?

[dvancleve]

Howdy folks, I hope this isn't in poor taste or frowned upon… Who has the best price on these hubs right now? Best I've found are Ribble and some eBay seller, both in the $81-$82 shipped range. Anything better out there?

Thanks, Doug

$82 shipped for 105 hubs is a great price. You are not going to get much, if any, better than that.

ebikestop has them for $70

Well that was fun, but I did that first Looks like the lowest prices are similar from eBay, ebikestop and Ribble, once shipping is added...

Thanks, Doug

seems like the price variation has really tightened up amongst the internet retailers --- not so surprising that its a new item. Probably a factor also that Shimano dropped a few of their distributors and really yanked on the leashes of the remaining.

What really gets my goat though is the inability to back-order stuff at sale prices. That was huge for backcountry and amazon a few years ago, but now that's really gone away. And, don't get me started when you see something advertised at a ridiculously low price only to find out the only size available at that price is XXXL.

Ended up ordering a pair from Ribble, got a code in email for 10% off so I did it
