Decathlon are again doing the Tacx Satori turbo trainer with mat, front wheel support and training DVD for £129.99. Their usual price is listed at £169.99, but even that is cheap as elsewhere the same trainer without the mat and DVD is £170-250. You could pay £65 for the mat and £20 for the wheel support alone.

The Satori gets good reviews on Chain Reaction, Wiggle, and Evans, but a relatively poor one on Bike Radar. I bought one yesterday, and it's perfect for my needs: rock solid, relatively quiet, easy to set up (after initial assembly), and has a great range of resistance with either the bar mounted lever or the bike's gears.

Would you believe that this is now back up to full price now that I have found it again and went to buy one?

Amazing what happens when you have to ride through a flooded lane and your feet get wet etc....

Any other TTs out there folks?

I tried to order a female Evo and not one in stock anywhere locally in more than one size. I have ordered some sealskin goves for about £27, though I'm not sure they are the same ones as my current old ones.

In terms of savings, those are all excellent deals. The Trek has the highest spec, and there's really not much to choose between the two Scott bikes.

The Trek has a triple chainring at the front, so you'll have a slightly wider range of gears. The 2012 Comp has a compact set up with 20 gears, whereas the 2009 has a bigger front ring and 18 gears; essentially (as I understand it) you're picking between a bit more speed or a bit more 'help' when climbing.

If you're going, I'd check out all 3 of them. Personally I'd go for the 2009 comp. Worth checking the extent of any damage they may have suffered in the flood.

At £100 is this bundle from Wiggle a good deal?

Thanks for the reply Andy.
The only problem is the site does not state what size the bikes are and the company replied to my e mail with a standard " thanks for the e mail but we unable to supply sizes etc.
A friend and I are still keen to go and have a look see so I will report back if we travel.

I would imagine they'll have a range of sizes available - it's all their flood damaged stock so I think they'll have a few.
