I ordered a bike on Tues with rutland and paid for TNT delivery on Saturday. Friday I received a dispatched email from their panther logistics courier to say it would be delivered Saturday, only for rutland to call and say they don't deliver to Scotland on a Saturday and don't use TNT anymore, in fact Ilona (Manager @ Rutland) went through the checkout process using my details and denied TNT being an option despite my email order showing TNT Saturday delivery. Ilona was going to speak to their courier to see what they could do and get back to me but she never did. I was lured into this sale by the Saturday delivery option 1. I would be at home 2. its may weekend and I could get put with the kids on my new bike.
I called Panther on Saturday about my delivery and they explained the earliest they could deliver is Thursday! they only deliver to Scotland tues to Fri. So, if like me you live in Scotland, that Island of 6 million people that is attached to England, you may have to wait sometime to receive your new shiny bike as they do not use a national courier. Their delivery tens are completely false also.
I've tried address in aberdeen, Perth and Edinburgh and panther class these destinations as 'remote'.
If you're not bothered about when you might receive the bike, use code 10DISCOUNT for a tenner off instead. not voting either way.

Probably the best first bike you can get. Great for getting into the sport and could last a lifetime.

Could be worse, you could live in Northern Ireland.
Then you'd really be a second class citizen.

I brought this bike for the same price back when it was last on offer, found a shop that price matched! Coming from a cheap mountain bike that got me back into cycling after 10 + year hiatus! Got to say for the money its a fantastic bike and is quickly turning me into a cycling addict :P Can't recommend it enough! :smiley:

Thought for a moment this was yet another mobile phone post from infamous Banggood or Gearbest for a Motorola 'Giant' Defy phablet.
Instead, thankfully it is a much more needed on HUKD bike deal instead, heat added :smile:

If you are using a cash back site do not make the same mistake I did and use one of the codes. If you use a discount code you will lose the cash back.
(good deal btw!)

Super price. Was looking for a first road bike for my son but the large frame may not be suitable for 5ft 9 in.

Yeah it will be too big, i'm a similar height and have a medium defy which is fine but wouldn't want it any bigger.
Defy 's are great bikes by the way Hot

You'll need something around the 52cm size frame. That's what I had but it's a bit too big for me and I'm 5'6". I was advised that my frame is more suited to a 5'8" - 5'9" person. Loved the bike though and it's a brilliant 1st bike
