Found a Bargain? Do Tell.

[Buck]

Just bought a pair of Adidas Vegan Samba bike shoes for the gym. Just need the SPD cleats for them. They were half price so an early Xmas present from the outlet store at Cheshire Oaks.

what's the size/fit like?
I'm looking for some shoes for my indoor trainer rather than using my outdoor ones.

I've seen these but not sure on sizing

What are you talking about? That helmet has got 4.5/5 from 174 reviews. And that's at £50.

I'm sure it's a decent helmet.

Seemed to be a number of negative reviews when I looked. Poor fit, caused headache, poor padding... Would explain the price.

Not all helmets fit all heads. I really wanted a specialized sub 6 but their shape didn't suit my head. And that's an expensive hat. Or it was anyway.

I've got the same hat last winter for a fiver, might have been this time last year, so it has been on offer before. It's fine TBH. I'd be happy enough if I'd paid 30 for it, but for a fiver it's a steal. My only other helmet is a Lazer I got with my first bike2work bike a few years ago and the dhb seems comparable quality but looks a bit more roadie. Padding and comfort seems fine for me. It's a little tighter on the sides of my noggin than my other one, but everyone's head is a different shape.

Well they're the same size as my Adidas running shoes. I do find Adidas to come up small so you need a bigger size. So I'm 45.5 in Adidas.

In ASICS running shoes I'm a 45.

My decathlon walking shoes are a 43 though.

Didn't fit but wore it anyway would explain the poor reviews

Was very tempted to get one, but my son wasn't interested, and there was only small and medium left, and I'm pretty sure I'm large.

well if no one in the club wants it you can have mine, it fits me on the tightest setting but not tight enough to be right .

Polaris have just relaunched their site - it was down for weeks - and have a bit of a sale on. Stock is a bit hit and miss as I believe they've been bought over and relaunching the brand in the coming months and trying to clear old stock.

Pick of the sale stuff probably the RBS gloves at £9

I can vouch for their base layers, socks and bikepacking gear

Our local Blacks (Tamworth) is closing down. I managed to get a Gore-Tex Shakedry jacket for £75. 2 left when I got mine.
