Mis-advertisement from Halfords!

[Sharpy]

Just looking for some new handlebars and Halfords are advertising some 3T bars for £58 which are alu but there advertising as carbon. Who writes their adverts?

^ this. Mistakes do happen, mouthing off online won't help sort it out though. As SBIB says, let them know so they can correct it. You can even give them the link to the 3T site HERE.

I'd have thought anyone looking for carbon bars would know from the pic and the price that it is obviously a mistake.

I don't know from your post if you want alu or cf, but FWIW I've always been advised to avoid carbon bars, and FYI, apparently the pros don't even use them, go figure.

Rage spews from every orifice here at Sackville Towers upon learning of their violation of faith!

Remember - before Halfords can go the extra mile they have to take you all the way...
