Not seen much discounting of bike stuff this year, at least not to the same extent as last year and not much better than you can find year round. Retailers belt tightening? Anyone picked up any bargains?

Sidi Cafe are selling all shoes at half price for the rest of December. Haven’t bought any though….

Sidi Hydro for a 100 quid, very good that, if only I had Italian shaped feet.

“Black Friday” seemed to be a bigger deal this year. Maybe that was when all the bargains went.

I’d like to think that retailers are getting more savvy about over-ordering and are reading the economic forecasts better. It certainly seems that the manufacturers are cutting production to avoid overstock.

How does one buy from sidi cafe? I can’t find a link or a way to actually buy the shoes?

Thread was slightly prompted by the wiggle email advertising a Di2 ultegra group for 499 which didn’t seem to be reflected on the 899 website price. I see they’ve now issued a “we messed up” email 🙂

I managed to get £3200 off the bike I wanted – I’m pleased about that 🙂
