While looking for tyres, this came up and it was close to previous deal. Wiggle are selling these are $137 for two.
Buy 2 tyres, add the code GP4AU & your discount will be applied
Max 2 tyres per order - limited to first 500 customers
With a single tyre here - http://www.wiggle.com.au/continental-650c-grand-prix-4000s-i… for $65.99 or two here http://www.wiggle.com.au/continental-grand-prix-4000s-ii-fol… for $137.97, are you sure you are referring to the same tyre?
this was about 2 weeks ago. yes same tyre 4000s ii X 2 with a few tubes
But but.. I've been eyeing this for an entire month.
Woah! Just checked wiggle again and see 2 tyres with 6 tubes now 155aud! I bought on 9/2 for 112 only.
interesting. there are a few cheaper prices around, but not once you add delivery.
.30c cheaper and standard price at Ribble, the #1 parts supplier to Australia.
Buy a Twinpack http://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/showPart.asp?part=CONTTYRF330&…
Then add an out of date 3 pack of gels for $1.77, http://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/showPart.asp?part=SISAEFOO746&…
Total $100.20, free delivery over $100.
Order as many as you like, if you want 4 Tyres, or 2 pairs, then it $196.86 from Ribble delivered a saving of $4.14 over PBK.
Currently only have the 700x23 in stock.

Although the above is the folding variant.
$99 + 2 tubes at Merlin:

Wiggle way more expensive than the competition, it seems.
But you need to spend another 89c for free shipping!
Pity inner tube not conti… would've paid extra
And FYI…

says
""" a 25mm tire experiences less rolling resistance than a 23mm tire at the same air pressure. """
and
""" If you go by the numbers in the lab, if you have a 19mm tubular tire and a 25mm tubular both ridden at 9 bars in a 40km time trial, you would win with the 25mm tires by 50 seconds. That’s all just from the reduction in rolling resistance.
"""
guarantee you most weekend hubbards aren't doing hard enough 40km TT efforts to notice the difference.
nor 99.9999% of strava obsessed PR beating amateur wannabe's (ie. me ;)
ive got a few of these (brand new and slightly used) that i won't ever use again cos ive since gone tubeless (and now stock up on those).
anyone in adelaide want some and don't want to wait a damn month (as per ridiculously slow PBK shipping times - see other forums)
i might be convinced to get off my ass and find them.
i just want my money back, which i think was less than 50 each, maybe around 40.
i've also got vredestein fortalezza tricomp. BNIB. they're better tyres than the conti's (stronger sidewall)
Just bought a pair with 5 or 6 tubes for 112 from wiggle. Arrived yesterday!
