As you're getting excited about going to Morzine, how about a full-face lid, or some really nice knee and/or shin pads?
Pimptacular flat pedals?
Or, how about asking for a TFtuned/Mojo service for the forks (and shock)?
a voucher for a skills course, these are good http://www.ukbikeskills.co.uk 🙂
Just bought some Endura Stealth tights (non bib) for £100 odd quid. Tried them this weekend and the verdict is very very impressive and ideally suited to sub zero conditions.
Trying to build a night ride into a routine mid week occurance. Hence would spend remainder on Hope Led 1 light. The reviews appear extraordinarily good and if you shop before midnight you will receive a 20% discount.
I asked for new tubeless wheels, she said that that was a silly thing to ask for xmas.
Asked her what she wanted She said a Radley handbag.................. 🙄
thanks for the recommend jenny. 🙂
I asked for a skills course as well after being asked by my folks what I wanted.
My old man said there was no point as I would be too busy........SO WHY ASK?
I think I'm getting some socks now.
A dictionary?
xtr pedals (race), carbon bar + a carbon stem? ( maybe add some of your own money)

Are they like the jacket (which I have just bought)? Softshell but waterproof?
Hoping Santa will bring me a new Cycling Jacket myself
Adjustable seatpost?
I am after a mobile pressure washer of some kind, though the Nomad I want is something like 180 sheets 😯
My feelings were only reinforced when the only oustide tap to my 3rd floor flat froze yesterday though.
Book by that Roger bloke, wheel truing jig, stand thingy, and learn yourself wheel building.
Crickey !, I think I've just had my own Xmas present question answered there.
😯

i got all the above for my days out on the DH bike. forks are pertty new too. i wouldnt mind a Garmin 800 or a 705 but i will have to add the funds to that!!
as for the xtr pedals iv only now just had them after waiting two months for them and the bikes skills ummm no thanks
shes had a radley bag and purse out of me already!! haha
yes, I suffer from the gender based incomprehension problem. My wife refuses to buy anything bike related for xmas despite me giving very clear web site references to desirable objects. Yet like Bruneep's other half she expects me to grob about in ladees clothes shops looking for obscure items of intimate female apparel. I actually struck lucky last birthday as we were in an outdoor shop that sold bike gear as well and I managed to get her to me buy a Gore top that was in the sale [ saved her thinking of anything!]
If you think I am whingeing you are right. Presents for her have to be well researched and exactly right, presents for me can be any random object that takes her fancy.
Unemployment and two kids means santa won't be visiting me this year...

I've asked the other half for some winter booties to keep my toes nice and warm
Gravity Dropper seatpost is top of my list. Pretty close to your budget...
i bought the KS i900r the other wk
Copy of Razzle, six pack and change.
A Ragley handbag? That's a departure for Brant. Steel or Titanium options I'd assume.
Razzle?
I had you down as a "perfect 10" type flashy.
i dont have any mtb wants other than a dropper post possibly 🙂
