First day back at work. FFS.

Has anyone tried their gear? Looks decent on their website.

Thank you for your wisdom gentlemen.

Cheers Pete. I've pulled the trigger on the 11 speed chainset. Got it from chain reaction. £80 including postage (1-2 days). I did go on a live chat thingy with wiggle about it but I waited more than ten minutes without a reply Thanks again folks.

Loving the Garmin 800. Just need to fix laptop to start downloading some routes. Happy days.

Garmin 800 on route. Couldn't resist any longer. Managed to get a good deal. I think!!

Clear mapping and other simple features. Price is also a small factor although not overly important. Its m...

Folks. I've been toying with the idea of buying a cycling GPS recently. To be quite honest I've been pulling out what little hair I have left trying to decide!! Your wisdom and views would be most welcome. Thank you in advance. James
