Ebc Reds, Bargain Prices

[Krisboats]

Right after trying to get some ebc reds for my louise from allterraincycles and being sent the greens instead then being told that they can't get them in stock at the minute anyway i decided to have a look at the ebc brakes site (here). I clicked on the "where to buy" button to be taken to this page (link) so i could see a list of all the people who "officially" stock the ebc pads.

I chose to use the brakes4u shop, partially because the logo was bigger and stands out a bit more than the others but also because its kind of like a biking world version of phones4u which always have good adverts (yes i know it is a very silly method of logically choosing a shop) I clicked the link to be taken to the shops main page (here) After a brief scan through the intro bit i noticed they'd been working with brake parts for 17 years so i figured they must know what they are doing. I chose the mountain bike category in the drop down menu and then clicked next. It then gave me a fairly large list of different pads and bits for brakes which i was fairly impressed with as they seemed to have every brake i could possibly think of. Later upon phoning them i was informed that they can get pads for any brake model that ebc make pads for within 1-2 days if they don't have it in stock already.

i confirmed my order and entered my card details and received a 10% discount (which is applied to all web orders) on the price before V.A.T. had been added and then payed via paypal (credit/debit card is also accepted should you wish to use it). within a few minutes i had my conformational e-mail from paypal and a conformational e-mail from brakes4u with my invoice and to let me know they would only contact me if there was a problem with my order. My order was complete as of 14 novemeber 2005 21:57 and all i had to do now was wait to see how fast their free delivery was.

Wednesday morning i had this through my post box (obviously sealed) and i was very impressed as its the same kind of delivery speed that chainreaction is known for.

So now I have a set of red EBC pads now for the bargain price of £12.63

If you have any queries and should wish to ring them they are very cheerful and happy to answer questions over the phone.

All in all a very good service for an awesome price, sorry if i seem to have gone on for a while but i thought this might be of interest to anybody who wanted/needs some more ebc pads and doesn't want to spend more than £15 on them. I know i will definately use this shop again next time i want to get some disc pads because I could not fault them at all.
