Found a Bargain? Do Tell.

Worthy of a mention. Everything ordered has arrived within 2 days and all the items I selected exceed my expectation for the prices paid, I have not owned anything from them before and have no connection to the company. Gloves, bibs, jackets, overshoes and socks all good stuff and suitably sized.

I m actually going back for a second pair of the cadence bibs which at £15 are too good to pass.

I bought one of these, looks like a decent bit of kit for twenty quid. Thanks for the tip.

Planet X have got their winter boots back in / on pre-order.

I have a pair of their previous version and they are awesome.

What's the sizing like ? Do you go up or down a size ?

What's the sizing like ? Do you go up or down a size ?

bear in mind mine is/was /are the previous incarnation of this boot

but i usually take a 44 continental size (UK10) and I bought a 45 (they were on ebay as new condition for £50 so i took a punt) and they fit fine, the 44 would have probably been too snug.

Well it takes all sorts. Nice for some relaxed riding along a canal or something.

It takes all shorts..

This is the kind of thing I ride my bikes all year round in - though I'm well stocked up for shorts at the minute.

OK, so it's a Mike Ashley owned company, but to buy and sell on?

Plus a review for it: https://www.cyclinguk.org/cycle-magazine/bike-test-affordable-adventure-bikes

^^ The reviews look a bit, err, interesting.

As much as the buyers.

I read a casual mention that they are pulling out of the uk.

I liked the cheesy question about a "paneer rack"

I need a cheap turbo bike but still not sure about that.

I have their normal shoes and the winter boots in the same size.

The boots were an eBay bargain but they're fleece lined so if I were buying again I'd go up a size.

They are excellent for the really wet rides and I've bought some gators for the top after one biblically wet ride when my boots filled with water.

Character building.

My recently received DHB padded longs (bought from Frasers Group) are just the same as the padded shorts I bought from Wiggles closing down sale, and I'd happily ride 100 miles in them. They are far far better than the Pinnacle (Evan's own brand) padded longs I have.

When DHB crashed I heard an interview from a worker who said they had loads of goods still on order from the factories so the stocks would last a good while.
