trimming that Australia/distro tax would be handy.brick and mortar shops....welcome back
hope they do.They could have at least experimented with one site and left the other alone.
Also, rekon Rapha is gonna have a go at infringement for the logo? Looks awfully close imo.
A whole month gone by, and Wiggle is Still shit. Wiggle and CRC are not the bargain spots they used to be at times, but at least the sites had good search functions and filters. Now.... it's all "LOL sorry, we are all in a k-hole and CBF fixing the site, also here's some inflated prices! "Gave them a bit of feedback and this was the response:

Sometime before 2018. That's when I bought my first set of Gloworm lights because they were literally twice as bright for $180. I even gave Ay-up a chance by emailing them before I bought the Gloworms asking if they planned on making any upgrades soon. No, we're happy with our product was their response. You'll notice there is no mention of any kind of brightness measurement on their website.When did Ay-Up become a bit shit? $11 for a standard post bag and the parts just chucked in a ziploc back, no instructions or care. Especially considering I paid $55 for a simple helmet mount for some long inferior lights.
It's a pity, they are or at least were the best helmet mounted/helmet mounting system going.Sometime before 2018.

For the record that original Gloworm set, including the battery, are still going as strong as ever.
I've run a set of Gloworms for a few years now, printed a GoPro style mount for them to attach to and zero issues to report. Previous to this was a set of Light 'n Motion Stella 200, never really rated the Ay-Ups.It's a pity, they are or at least were the best helmet mounted/helmet mounting system going.
Gloworms any good helmet mounted?
Yes! I haven't weighed either system but the two were pretty comparable. Like Ay-ups the lens are interchangeable. I have the G1.0 Alpha 1200 on my head and the G1.0 XSV on my bars. With both set to about 1/3rd power I have enough light to ride random rocky trails that I've never ridden before with no problems.It's a pity, they are or at least were the best helmet mounted/helmet mounting system going.

That's a turnaround from the last time I asked....I just bought something in-store at Pushys cheaper than I could buy it on the website.
Yakima holdup Evo:
Today I am a god.
- Online - $749
- In-store - $739
BTW, for the 'Berrans, the store will now price match the online prices, or so dude told me anyway.
I was surprised too.That's a turnaround from the last time I asked....
Note: I understand why in-store is more expensive
I used to have the same issue at Bikebug before it was Borged by Pushys and all the stores were closed.It could be an unspoken policy among staff because they are all sick of being asked to price match and having the occasional Karen roast their ears about not matching.
