Ribble

[dbnm]

I've never heard of Ribble but they keep coming up in my search for new bike parts.

The feedback here seems to be pretty good too.

Any reason not to order from them?

I've always had pretty good luck ordering from them. Use tracked delivery though.

Reliable delivery. If they have what you want, go for it. They've started to not ship many items to the US in order to help manufacturers set up artificially high prices though.

if you've never heard of ribble, you already missed the golden age of cheap campy parts. i've had great luck ordering from them in the past, but as mentioned, their inventory is pathetic these days, but if they have what you want - no worries ordering from them.

Excellent prices and service....

A few transactions and excellent results. As mentioned they are restricting certain items being shipped to the US.
Wiggle and Chain Reaction are 2 other sites that I have had good luck with when comparative shopping.

Used to be my go-to spot for VeloFlex tires. Went through some type of rebranding/new ownership? They are still decent, but not the top of my list anymore. Shipping has always been good with them when I’ve purchased things.

Solid site.

They now charge for shipping. End of story.

Free over a certain price. And not expensive below.

They use to be my go to site but I have had better luck lately with MerlinCycles.

I used to like Ribble, but my recent attempts to buy things for a winter build have had me going elsewhere, either due to lack of stock (Campy) or things that cannot now be shipped to the US. Lately they seem to be more interested in flogging their own brand of bikes; too bad as they usually had good prices and things I wanted.

I haven't ordered from them (or even visited the site) in ages but I never had any problems over dozens of transactions. But as others have said I think the golden age for buying mail order has passed. Luckily I stocked up on enough gear to last a lifetime a long time ago.

They still have some good prices and good service. Best price I've seen on these in a while, GP4000IIS for $27 US! I just ordered 4 of them.

me too!..Ribble's pricing has gone up and their brand restrictions have made it almost impossible ...where they were once my number 1 go to site, I've replaced my bookmark with Merlin, in fact I'm currently awaiting an order, their shipping times are faster than Ribble's used to be and their tracking is better!

Still waiting.

Last tracking info was January 5 - "exported from the UK"
