Thanks I updated the link!

Wow that's some great deals. Those Z2s are brilliant forks. I really rate them. Fit and forget

Damn I paid 200 for some Z2s second hand mint condition, a few months back

Absolutely brilliant forks (I've still not got round to the lower leg service yer)

Tempted to buy one of those frames for jnr and build it up to something rad for him ahead of time.

He is currently on a 26"vitus nucleus.

DO kids go straight to 29" now or do some ride 27.5?

anyone else wondering if these guys are in financial difficulties?

Some bargains around!

weeksy
Code RSC brakes are £99 a piece. Down from £259

yeah but OEM, no clamps. No olives (£8.99 each) to shorten. Strange hose lengths rear 1400 or so. Way too short.
Sram hose £47!

small sram parts are bloody extortionate.

yeah but OEM, no clamps. No olives (£8.99 each) to shorten

I have clamps and multiple olives. They have some 1600mm too.

Not at £99 quid though...correction, there is 1 that length...hadn't seen it amongst all the options out of stock.

Yes, they do. Lol.

I bought 2 earlier

Levers are flippable too so I don’t know what makes them ‘right handed’. Ie I think you can buy two to use as F&R.
Bargain, I love my Codes.

That Mega is available in 29er too,  and there's the latest alloy mullet 297 mega  for £900 with shock, that's half price.

I picked the SJ, majig version and mine had olives, in the red olive tool, the lever comes bled but detached ready to be threaded

Good PSA, particularly the Z2.  Just ordered a pair for the daughter’s 650+ trek Roscoe.  6%TCB too.

Noice.

anyone else wondering if these guys are in financial difficulties?

that just looks like clear out of old stock (eg not current NP mega, when the current one is likely to be updated soon) and OEM parts from builds (brakes with specific unusual  length hoses)

bargains though.

Those Vitus frames are a bargain!

Tempted to get my Daughter one - would just need a boost rear wheel.......

Guide RE's are still available for £45/50 depending on hose length, a bit of a bargain for DOT6 users wanting a 4 pot caliber. Rear only now, but the only difference between front and rear is hose length- levers of course fit either side.

Most of the Vitus Mach hybrid/urban bikes are half price - so from £200 SS to £400 Sora. £260 on this with a 3-speed Nexus hub and hydraulic discs is tempting me for a town/pub/schoolrun bike: https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/p/vitus-mach-1-three-nexus

£1500 Mega 290 looks excellent vfm too: https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/p/nukeproof-mega-290-comp-alloy-bike-deore

Strewth - that Mega was £1899 when I bought my Reactor. I had originally decided on the Mega but cost was a factor in deciding on the Reactor.

It may 'only' be Deore and have basic shocks/fork but it's well made and well thought out with lots of quality.  For £1500 that Mega is incredible.

I wish they had the sort by discount option available.

new Fox 36 Factory 140mm 29 for £599

I just tried to buy one of those Mega frames - 1599 Euros when I change to my non UK location. Never mind.

Any way to change the Z2s to 140/150mm?

New air shaft AFAIK.

there are some good deals on there. the missis just ordered a Vitus Mach 3 VR Urban Bike (Claris). Looks like a bargain.

I did asee however that wiggle have stopped doing C2W. Anyone know if there are going to start redoing it? Been looking at the vitus road bikes and the C2W makes it all the better!

Those Fox 36er (29") in 140mm guise are now £549...wowsers!

POC Kortal Race, not the trendiest colour, green, in M, down from £220 to £75.

https://www.wiggle.com/p/poc-kortal-race-mips-mtb-helmet?color=epidote-greenuranium-black-metallicmatt&sizeStandard=M

I normally wear a helmet in S/M as I like a close fit, but this is perfect on me.

Well just ordered the small Vitus Escarpe 275 from for my Daughter......

Amazon Prime Day today and tomorrow, there's some good cycling deals on there including Garmin.
The sales there have forced further discounts on CRC and WIggle for some items as well.

was also looking at the escarpe for my boy, but at 145cm he's quite a way off it

Sram Level Ultimates are £100 per brake. Good XC brake.

Those Fox 36er (29″) in 140mm guise are now £549…wowsers!

I really fancy a set of those for my Chameleon but not sure if they're. bit much for a singlespeed. Probably quite a step up from the 120mm SID forks I'm going to be using.

^ nah. Been running 36 140s on my previous and current gen, and about to put on a lyrik 150. With enough steerer to fit a slackr later... 😉

My Daughter is 155cm - she can (and does on occasion) ride my medium Nukeproof Scout 275 (which will sacrifice all of its parts...) so this should be better for her.

Ahh some good deals, does anyone rate the Garmin edge 530? That’s a good price for £160 on there. I know there’s an 830 too but can’t see that as a deal at all. Have seen the comparison vids, it’s more to replace my old Garmin touring that doesn’t even have Bluetooth 😂

I bought a 530 a couple of months ago for just over 200,  which at the time was a good deal

I rate mine, I use it to record rides, and when going exploring as nav, its been pretty good at that considering I'm trying to find routes through woodlands etc.. bought the 530 as it had multiple profiles and didn't want touchscreen

I wouldn't want to set u pa route on it though, i do everything via phone or pc

530 is the Ford Mondeo of computers.  It does everything you need pretty well and is quite cheap.  It is annoying not having touch at times, as I like to browse the map sometimes, but that's it - and the upside to that is that you can still use it in the rain just fine.  Great device.

Extra £20 off £100 and £40 off £200 at Wiggle with code SAVE at the moment.

I like the 530 - I didn't want the touchscreen so avoided the 830. Does everything I need and plenty more - I don't use it for following a course, but the mapping is handy to give an idea of where I am if I do end up 'exploring'...

Battery lasts well, seems to get a signal quickly and seems to hold the signal well.

The only issue with the 530 is it's very fiddly setting up those data screens. Why can't they just have some sort of text file / json / yaml file or something to define it all that you could drop into a folder on the device over usb? It'd be so much easier

Extra £20 off £100 and £40 off £200 at Wiggle with code SAVE at the moment.

Could've been annoying. Was wondering whether I'd have to send the frame back I've just ordered and buy it it again with £40 off but they've put the price up by £80, so no. Also tried the code on some forks on my maybe list and it accepted the code but didn't take the money off. Maybe its non sale items?

yeah the code only applies to certain items.  Maguara MT trail sport for 120 the set front and rear is quite tempting
