Found a Bargain? Do Tell.

Just had an email advising of yet another Polaris sale - much of the same stuff again plus new additions

I really like my Venom Polaris bib shorts and £25 is a lot cheaper than I paid

 

[NorthernDave]

Polaris have these bib shorts in their sale and they look a good deal (£50 off):

Anyone comment on the sizing? They're listed as 'race fit', so presumably the fit will be different to the standard bib shorts that I'm returning with the loose fitting legs - just wonder if these might do away with the problem?

A Tourney 24 inch road bike for 10+ year olds. A few in stock here and there (Doncaster, Gloucester, Milton Keynes...),
But it seems like good value for anyone who can't be sure investing in an Islabike will pay for itself.

At that price its worth buying for the drivleine etc etc and building a cheap 1 x 7 road bike

Polaris bib-shorts down from £75 to £20: http://www.polaris-bikewear.co.uk/Pursuit-Road-Cycling-Bib-Shorts-p/pol01-4020-p.htm All sizes available at time of posting.

Mine arrived today. The quality is good, on par with any £50 bib shorts such as dhb. Fit was fine, L was ok for me at 6ft2 34/36inch waist.

However the pad feels for too wide between my legs, and I fear that it may rub me raw.

A good reduction on these Shimano XC50 mtb shoes from Halfods.

I also bought a pair, good shoes, but my running spike's don't fit, guess you have to buy Shimano spikes ?

These have always struck me as supremely daft but might be a nice present for you or the small footed one in your life.

Some good bargains in Vulpine's sample sale, but I reckon you'll have to be quick:

Bagged myself a pair of Specialized s-works 6 road shoes off ebay at the weekend.
I tried some on just last week at the spesh store and they fitted like a glove but were out of my reach at £280
So I was amazed to see a brand new pair pop up for auction on the bay of fleas but I stuck on a speculative bid £100 below the shop price and went off out to the pub expecting to be outbid.
Never even had cleats fitted and they are stealth matt black.
Chuffed!

It would be C2W so the team carbon would have been the max, although looking back at the spec of my old bike before i changed the wheels to lighter ones , the team carbon is 200g lighter .
