We're not. I rang my old supplier for a chat about something else and they were still what I was paying for them years ago. Mountune are getting subsidised parts, but they're still not the kind of money being quoted around here.
I'm in no way qualified to comment on Alcon's business, but speaking to my contact, they didn't seem to know about it - doing their usual hot cakes trade to the rally boys.
Word is AP are getting a lot of stuff in from China these days?
Dp_Ed30:
i dunno about the politics.
alcons are awesome brakes but i paid £900 for a set of pads and discs regardless of what anybody tells you
tony_danza:
I'm not doubting that, I think some tuners are sticking a serious premium on stuff - the variation on prices of my kit when I was buying was £1750-£2300.
Always helps to get to know people and ask for discount too :happy2:
