hey im just looking at this oxford monster chain (1.5m) on this website https://www.gear4bikers.co.uk/ (if you want to see if its right at the bottom just above the ground anchor) and it says this chain and lock is worth £150 and they sell it for £90 i was just wondering if this is the only place that does this chain and lock for this price or do all the shops do it now? and also i need to know if its any good so if anyone out there wants to help a newbe biker please feel free to Mr. Green

also the only security i have for my DNA is a disc lock thats got one of thos old designs so that can be opened with a pen! and my uncles a biker so he lent me a chain till i can get 1 of my own
any help welcome Mr. Green

Don't know you'll have to search mate.

Personally I wouldn't buy from gear 4 bikes again. I dealt with them once. They had to send the item twice because the first one got lost (so they said). When I did get the item it was no good for my bike (although their site listed it as the part for my bike). I returned it but they said they never got it. Had to claim my refund through Royal Mail.

Ste also had hassle with them last year (or the year before) the same week I did. Thumbs Down

I was just going to post to say that I was very happy with my service from them (although admittedly, all I bought was a spark plug and air filter) ordered on the Saturday, arrived Monday morning.

No idea about chains though.

Snip: Although, now I think about it, the website did have the wrong spark plug down as being for my bike. Confused

Thats gear4bikers.co.uk, not gear4bikes.com which is a different company with a bad choice of name. Razz

No idea about the chain, have a look around other online shops and see if elsewhere is selling it.

I paid £100 for a 1.5m Oxford Monster from Hein Gericke about 2 years ago.

ok i have been looking around alot and decided to go with gear4bikers.co.uk as the chain is £90 in there but around £140 everywhere else, also ordered about 3 other bits and bobs, after all if i have any probs with them i can always pay them a visit with a petrol bomb Twisted Evil

(possible joke btw)

I've ordered a few bits of Gear4Bikes and never had a problem with them.

Though I'd look on ebay, I bought my Oxford Monster for £40 about 1.5years ago from some guy called sihall2000 or similar, loads of ppl get them off him.

Not had a problem with gear4bikes.com either.

Used them a few times now.

Ditto. Used them loads of time, no problem.

Got my monster on ebay though, same guy as Phoe.
