[Closed] PSA: Salsa bikes half price.

+1

I would've had one of those Horsethiefs last week, but fortunately have made other arrangememnts now.

They've got some reasonable reductions on Surly stuff too...

Billy (geddit) bargains!

I've always fancied a Salsa bike, but I'm not going to scratch the itch. Oh no, definitely not. Absolutely no way am I going to buy another bike.

Aaaaaah!!

Anyone want to buy a lovingly cared for Nicolai Helius CC for £1150?

Thanks goodness the Fargo is only xl

bloody hell.... some bargains !!!

Ooops! Was wanting to down-size to a small frame (from my medium).. hello Mr Credit Card! 8)

I wish I hadn't seen that Fargo...

Shame the horsethief isn't just slightly better specced. It's a bargain still, but I would have really liked to pay more for a better spec.

I'd have bought that NOS Casseroll if had been the right size. 😐

Yep spec put me off, I've been eying up a horse thief for a while. With that spec I would ended upgrading all of it. May as well get a frame...

That's insane VFM, the spec's aren't great at RRP, but aren't bad, but at those prices even if you were picky enough to notice the difference between motion control and RCT3 dampers (maybe), or SLX and XT (unlikely) that's a lot of wiggle room for upgrades.

Check up on my arm tomorrow, maybe, just maybe..................

Damn you! The Casseroll is the right size and I'm wondering if I'd stretch to an XL Fargo... 6'2" and find a 20" Inbred a bit short...

How much better would that Spearfish 3 be vs a 25lb ASR5?

Please tell me it wouldn't.... 😕

Better at?

It would be 100% better at being a new bike.

Was just recently looking at swapping out my 29er frame.

Bike of swapping round and selling on, pretty much justifies itself.

Just emailed to a mate who is vulnerable to the shiny..

I'm evil.

And he bit..
Mwhahahahaha

Thank god that Fargo is an XL....

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no...

Shedbrewed - I'm about your size, ride XLs, and have somehow managed to rack up 4 Fargos (although I've just sold one and am selling another as two is enough for any man....)

My judgement is that the XL would be spot on at your size I reckon.

Hopefully there will not be any of those cargos left tomorrow otherwise I will be buying one.

Better at?

...is the right answer! Great, I don't need to buy one. Although I want to.

Dammit!. Salsa Vaya framesets (55cm or 57cm) for £250. Bought a frameset from Triton before Christmas for £350.

Must stop looking at the Vaya Travel

Mukluks cheap

That casseroll is a bit of a bargain. I paid £799 for mine and considered it a great price.

If I was weak I'd buy a mukluk and vaya frame set

*fingers in ears* la la la I can't hear you...

I bloody love my el mariachi and would urge anyone to snap one up at those prices. (but stick a rigid fork on it and remove the gears)

commander hi... did you get my email about the alfine 8

That's along the lines I've been thinking but with a Rohloff. Luckily I've convinced myself I need the XS rather than the S.

Anyone 6ft1 with long gibbon like arms & legs and ride an El Mariachi?
What size frame do you ride?

How often do offers like this come up? Is it an annual thing?

I have no need for another bike right now but will be looking in under a year I reckon

I'll keep an eye one this site and see if/when this goes on sale.

What in the name of all that's holy is THAT thing !!!!

Usually, but it's different bikes, different brands etc..... but companies are always selling off last years models cheap when releasing new ones.

My Commencal Meta AM was silly money, Bionicons are silly cheap right now too, as obviously are Salsas.

What in the name of all that's holy is THAT thing !!!!

It's the future that is.

cheap specialised frames at bikescene too...

anyone buying / thinking of buying a Small El Mariachi, and might be prepared for a bit of wheeler dealing? Particularly if you are based in the South East. Drop me an email, in profile.

bugger the small mukluk has gone 🙁
