Sealskinz winter cycling gloves (2011) are on offer £40 down to £12 + £2.50 delivery, Small, XL and XXL only on their Outlet Store

I just wanted to give a heads up that these are still available. Mine arrived next day via ups and are amazing value for £12

Far better than the £30 gloves I had just bought from Evans and will now be returning.

Happy New Year people!

Nothing too great today but some Avid Elixir 5 Hydraulic brakes at £28.52 - 2 available. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B008OE8N58/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE
My Local bike mechanic says he always advises on getting Shimano - but gives these a 2 year hassle free life - so not bad at £29 I guess

Smart Lunar 60 lightset! Didn't know they did this. And have been a somewhat harsh critic of the 35 & 25 - even though hypocritical as I still use em for "being seen" cos they were cheap and the brackets are universal.

I ONLY use Smart rear lights as find them fantastic & with universal mounts. This 60 Lux pack is quite a big step up and could probably be a "see" light on unlit tarmac at speed. Not a bad price at £26.93 direct from Amazon - http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/...sfl_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

Carbon MTB seatpost in 27.2 only - £26.66 http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/...sfl_title_4?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

100 Greatest Cycling climbs - have I posted this before? Who knows! £3.99 anyway - http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/...sfl_title_9?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

Shimano XT / Ultegra 9 speed 114 link chain £10.99 http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/...fl_title_10?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

Ritchey Superlogic Carbon Flat Bar £41.92 http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/...sfl_title_5?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

And of course, the KMC X10SL chains are still available... £26.99 for Silver http://www.amazon.co.uk/KMC-X10-SL-...TF8&qid=1420113686&sr=1-1&keywords=kmc+x10+sl

Or £29.34 if you want a Gold one - http://www.amazon.co.uk/KMC-Chain-1...TF8&qid=1420113770&sr=1-9&keywords=kmc+x10+sl

Best wishes. *Please note I have no control of Amazon prices so best to get in quick as they can change without warning!

SRAM Rival 22 Crank Set 52-36. £43.82.

[outlash]

Carrera Velodrome Road Helmet in Large 58-62 cm - Black / Silver - add on item if Non Prime. RRP £39.99.

£7 quid - LOL http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00G0PLMKG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00

Selling for £20 on Ebay. Buy 2 and flog one on Gumtree for £15 = free helmet! Only 9 left when posted...

These have a rear red LED light built in.

You hark an about the 'leeches', HDUK'ers and ebay dealers but it's OK to buy 2, sell 1 and keep one essentially for free? Smacks a little of hypocrisy there....

I ONLY use Smart rear lights as find them fantastic & with universal mounts. This 60 Lux pack is quite a big step up and could probably be a "see" light on unlit tarmac at speed.

If you just want the front Smart 60 lux, only £11.99 at Planet X http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/LISMLU60/smart-lunar-60-lux-front-light
I bought 2 & they seem quite impressive, I've not ridden with them yet, but they are great for my walk back from the local on unlit roads Once I've ridden on unlit roads in the dark with them I'll comment further

edit - review now added http://www.cyclechat.net/threads/smart-lunar-60-lux-light.172004/

 

[outlash]

Not so much of a bargain but for those of us with Cantilever or V-brakes, a cheap way of upgrading your brakes.

Koolstop pads going cheap at Wiggle: http://www.wiggle.co.uk/kool-stop-v-brake-standard-compound-pair-of-inserts/

Buy these holders: http://www.wiggle.co.uk/lifeline-performance-v-brake-holders-inserts-4-pack/ and you've got vastly improved braking for £20, plus cheaper replacements as you've only got to buy pads for now on .

These have been on sale most of last year, 20mm not so popular now that people are looking at 25/28mm. Very cheap for a near 300tpi tyre though

 

[albion]

They are 150 tpi. You forget they chose to double up in counting to sound better.

Who doubles up the figure, Vittoria or PX?

I had a pair of the KS version last year in 23 mm .http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/TYVIOPCOEVKS/vittoria-open-corsa-evo-ks-folding-tyre ( think the only difference apart from the width is the tread pattern , the KS is a slick )
Raced and trained on them throughout the summer . Not a hard wearing tyre by any means but very comfortable and grippy . I would say a bargain if your not bothered about colour .

DT Swiss 1455 wheelset, £800 to £200, not sure how good these wheels are? Better than Zondas?

I'm beginning to feel like a Planet X rep, another great deal today.
