Well I was going to go this morning, but had a hard shift last night and didnt finish till ten. My other half said I'll pop in this morning and get the stirrup pump for you. when I woke up at (whispers 9.45) she had been and came home with a box full of gear two inner tubes, helmet. shell jacket, t shirt with rear pockets, jacket with rear pockets, saddle bag with tools, gloves, two pairs of socks and some cycling shorts, woohoo guess I must have been a good boy lately.

Has anyone bought a track pump from Aldi? Mine is broken and i need a new one - are Aldi's OK ?

I bought one a couple of years ago. Worked OK on low pressure MTB tyres, no so good on 700 x 23c. Last year I bought a Joe Blow Sports Max and gave the Aldi track pump away.

You did better than me, no change from £60 Jersey, jacket, gloves, lights, compression top, 2x socks, lights, shorts, waterproof. Guess I'm just an Aldi slut. I think the rain must have kept the less miserly away as there was still lots of stuff there at 11 o'clock.

I got a Lidl track pump a couple of years ago and was unimpressed. It was OK on the Schreader vavle but hard work on the Prestas.

I've relegated it to a possible "leave at work if I get a job I can commute to" and bought one from EBC.

The Aldi one does what it says on the tin and pumped the tyres up perfect,not sure how accurate the pressure guage is

Me and the O.H both got the Ortlieb rip off panniers for work, I got two pairs of ladies bloomers and L.O got a pair of gloves - every body happy!

 

[potsy]

Went back and got another pair of mitts, still loads left

I happened to be near Aldi on the Leeds ring road today and popped in.

They had lots of stuff left, even clothing although mostly women's.

Nothing really appealed though; I've got enough shirts/socks/etc.

I got a chain/lock from Aldi's, it seemed sturdy enough but the chain is so thick it's not very foldable. Not really anywhere I could put it without being in the way

Could not decide between the soft-shell in red/black (for my spesh) or the white (for the Bianchi) .. So I bought both.

Don't do it! I bought a track pump last year, If you can get to 50 psi you are lucky....
