Supplier recognition - SJS Cycles

Stumbled across them last year looking for Carradice gear and have now discovered they're great for spares as well.  Their Instagram feeds have the odd pics of hard-core touring cyclists on Thorn bikes in far-flung places.  Not the prettiest bikes but obviously bomb proof if you fancy nipping across Mongolia; I also now understand about Rohloffs.

Agreed. They're my go to shop for all those little bits and pieces that allow you to repair something rather than throw it away, such as pedal axles (and the tiny ball bearings that go with them), derailleur cage plates and springs etc. Brilliant shop.

100% agree.

AFAIK Its partly because they have a large touring customer base from their Thorn brand.  Not just the newest shiny shiny from the big boys.

Great for weird and wonderful lighting and dyno parts.

Yes, they have an awesome product selections. I would buy from them if the delivery costs to Norway were not eyewatering expensive (£38 delivery for a 24t chainring costing £12, for example).

They're completely awesome. Not the fastest delivery, but alongside Spa Cycles the only place you can get many service parts if you want to do the work yourself. I've bought so much stuff from them over the years - particularly touring-related things like weird mudguard accessories and dyno lighting kit. They're basically the A-Team of cycle fettling.
