Revgrips uk no more

[cozzy]

I have just seen that cyclorise the UK revgrips importer has gone bust.

Bit of a pisser as I could do with some replacement grip sleeves for mine as they are quite worn.

So be aware if you buy the remaining stock from other retailers you will be unable to buy spares from the uk. Far from ideal when they cost £99.

FFS... iv got a a pair of tan 'not bad looking' and a pair of red,real bad buy... replacement grips. sad times..

 

[E Bob]

sprockets cycles still selling them, but as you say as a whole... you got a red bike ??..

It may be possible to get the replacement grip sleeves direct from revgrips US.
They were about £30 I recall here. Showing as 30 on their site.
Plus fees of course.

I just read aon racing, reece Wilson new team is running revgrips.
Surprised a uk team is running a product you cant buy in the uk, i did a quick search and it appears there is now a new distributor.
I'll contact them to see if spares are available.

£33.99 for black rg6 sleeves plus £4.50 p&p.
They were about £30 a few years back from cyclorise.
Limited selection currently but more due in. Not listed on store yet.

Well as 5/6 of the riders are UK, I think that counts as a UK team.

Well the management are ex Unior Sinter Slovenians, four out of six riders are British & their address is in Switzerland. If you want to argue the toss out national identity, go nuts. I doubt anyone gives a care much.

Can you order directly from the manufacturer or a store in Europe? I often find deals in the U.K. or Europe. While shipping is pricey, the good prices make up for it.

now read cozzy's comment again, without it being a "uk team" it doesn't make any sense. hence my comment. if you have reading comprehension issues i can explain it in detail if you want...

 

[RustyMTB]

Oh you do want to argue the toss. OK, off you go then Hans.

I've ordered spares from sour bikes before €10 shipping so got a few pairs of grips to make it worth it.

I also ordered a pair of RevGrips from Shorelines for my Dad and shipping was nice and quick and free if I recall correctly.

Be good to see a UK shop stocking spares for them, Cyclorise was fantastic, shame they went under.
