I got the high power rear light. And the cree led front light, both are good for the money.

Sorry, does that mean it's really good quality and value for money, so you bought another one, or a crack has started in it, so you replaced it? (Serious question)
no it's not started cracking... it's just a cracking light, and now i have two... it looks like this

+1 on the degreaser, the chain oil is fine (although I stocked up on Muc Off at Aldi recently) and I'll pick up the puncture repair kits when I remember

Their bike cleaner spray isn't very good.

Bollocks, thought I'd got a bargain there. Still, I need the squirty bottle to make up the Fenwicks cleaner that bought at the LBS recently.

One of the best lights I have ever bought. It has outlasted 4 cateye rear lights (maybe there is just too much rain in Manchester for the cateye lights!) that I have bought and still going strong. They are very bright and although not the coolest looking things they do their job extremely well.

Their tubes are kah kah.........worse than useless actually. Last spring, I needed a 700c presta tube, on a sunday. As Wilkinson was nearer than Hellfrauds I went to them, got one and one spare. Got home and opened up the first tube, and it had no valve, just an empty threaded metal pipe, obviously useless. Opened up tube no. 2 , this one had a valve. Slipped it onto the rim and tucked the tyre back into the rim. Undid the valve to pump it up, and the dam valve came right out, leaving me another useless tube. No quibble getting my money back is the only good thing about the whole experience. Havnt been back in there since, but I may give that back light a go.
