What's the best online store for road cycling gear?

If only I could ride like that! To be fair that probably is how I ride, just about 50x worse than them...

Re:

You cant beat Wiggle due to their free returns -

CRC and Wiggle are now one.
I wonder if they'll carry on with two websites or if they'll eventually merge them into one?

Well Wiggle have just announced that there are hundreds of jobs at risk at the CRC warehouse in NI so I think that it's the first step to merging websites too.

There are varieties of category of bikes so what do you want to buy it depends what are the sources for that particular category & where it will be provide.,.,,

The best online cycling stores aren’t the wild-west, buyer-beware world that characterized Internet shopping in its earliest days. They are multi-million dollar businesses, some multi-hundred million dollar businesses run by professional management and financed by sophisticated investors who see their solid financials and a decade long growth path ahead.

That list pretty much sums it up. There is no one stop shopping place, you have to scan them for sales, although most of my stuff is purchased at Performance or Nashbar.

There's also a Google extension, it is a hit and miss thing though, but it always alerts you to specials which can drive you nuts (of course you can enable and disable it anytime you want) and still not find what you want, or you might see something you want and then it will be cheaper then anywhere else more times than not; https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chainlove-countdown-timer/ljppcglljemjablfhgjdhndlpallobpl?hl=zh-CN
