Calibre Bossnut discounted by over £700 this Friday 

GO Outdoors has slashed the price of the Calbre Bossnut by £701. Members can now shop the bike for £999 from Friday 22nd November, with the reduction taking £500 off the existing member deal.

Product Description: The name Bossnut needs no introduction in the mountain bike world. Originally launching almost a decade ago, the Calibre Bossnut redefines what an entry-level full-suspension bike is capable of.

Since its debut in 2015, the Calibre Bossnut has won countless awards and become the benchmark for entry-level full-sus mountain bikes.

If you wanted to get into mountain biking but didn’t have a huge budget, the Bossnut was the bike to buy. It quickly became the go-to for new riders or people getting back into the sport. This perfectly summed up Calibre’s ethos of producing bikes that provide affordable performance.

The original Bossnut went through 5 iterations and continued to grow in popularity until 2020 when all production ceased during the pandemic. It’s been over 4 years since the last model launched; 4 years of redevelopment, testing, prototyping and refining to create the best entry-level performance mountain bike on the market.

Back better than ever, the 2025 Calibre Bossnut is built around a brand new frame designed from the ground up with progressive geometry that’s amazing out of the box, as well as worthy of upgrades to stand the test of time. Stacked with quality components that make it more capable than ever and with the same easygoing feel that it’s always been loved for.

The offer is provisionally running until the 2nd of December and can be shopped on gooutdoors.co.uk

I came to Singletrack having decided there must be more to life than meetings. I like all bikes, but especially unusual ones. More than bikes, I like what bikes do. I think that they link people and places; that cycling creates a connection between us and our environment; bikes create communities; deliver freedom; bring joy; and improve fitness. They're environmentally friendly and create friendly environments. I try to write about all these things in the hope that others might discover the joy of bikes too.

    It was desirable at full price! It was launched a few months too late for me, my fat bike WILL suffice….

    That is going bring a lot of happiness to a lot of people. The miles of smiles per £ is pretty spectacular 🙂

     

    It feels a little heartwarming to me for some reason, maybe because of this climate of accepting £8k (or insert your unaffordable costs for most people) e-bikes. An accessible bike to go out and have fun with, well done Calibre!

    Damn, I’m really tempted by that.

    I’ve got an old one so this could be an upgrade.

    Anyone got any real life experience of this? (preferably telling me it’s not that great so shouldnt get it!!)

    Mate, if you’ve even vaguely in the market for one then just buy it now.

    Initial reviews were very positive, it won’t be a lemon and you’ll feel smug every time you ride it.

    It’s a great bike. Geo and suspension are sound. Components decent. Easy enough to bring properly up to par too (tyres and maybe bigger rotor(s))

    Tyres are the same as many brands stick on their £5k offerings. Definitely no need to upgrade beyond personal preference IMO.

    Wow, I bought one 30 days ago when the reviews first came out, feel a bit like I’ve been shafted now along with anyone else who bought straight away.

    Always wait for black Friday when it’s only a few weeks away.

    You could pick up a Dark Peak with the money you saved!  700 x 45C clearance, very nice looking frame, carbon fork and perfectly useable components

    £499!

    A full suss and a gravel bike for £1500  That’s nuts.

    I thought black Friday was for clearing all the stock they couldn’t sell, not for slashing the prices of recently launched products – lesson learned.

    Paying £999 to turn it in to the authorities seems a bit excessive. (Though buying it at that price would be a bargain.)

    I certainly don’t ride offroad enough to justify one, but that’s properly in the realm of “be rude not too”!

    Drop them a mail explaining how you feel? You might get a gesture of goodwill in return

    I’d considered it, might give them a good laugh I suppose.

    Or a nice suspension fork like a lyrik or pike in the sales, and upgrade the bike from the off.

    @fattyatforty I would be mightily annoyed if I’d bought one after launch that was then hugely discounted shortly afterwards. I had similar with Muc-Off recently, placed an order Thursday evening then got an email next day announcing 25% off everything. I sent a polite email expressing my annoyance and received a gift voucher, It’s worth a try to complain, even if you only get a voucher?

    I’m not really interested in a voucher, a couple hundred quid back would be nice – can’t see that happening though.

    Maybe if the folks at Calibre (not Go Outdoors) see this they could sort out those that dove in and bought straight away with something useful like a spare mech hanger and/or chainstay protector when they become available.

    you know what they will see? An email directly to them. You can’t just hope they will come to you.

    I’d be telling them I’m looking to return the bike for a full refund, so I can re purchase at the lower price.

    I’m reckon they’ll see this, the interweb will work its magic.

    Best of luck then.

    For a variety of reasons. I’m still riding a 26″ Orange 5 from 2009.

    This looked like a great opportunity to get into a LLS 29″.

    I blinked and missed that opportunity.

    Lesson learnt!
