Good discounts on OneUp, www.uk.oneupcomponents.com the V1 bars are particularly good value, I believe the later V2 version is the same but beefed up for the downhill standards and hence more expensive.
Sorry, my ability to copy and paste links has left me, if anyone else can do it?
I not got a digital pressure gauge, so don't know, sorry. They're just like a presta valve without the unscrewy bit, so have been fine with all the pumps I've used (Lidl, Joe Blow and Lezyne)
Has anyone seen any deals about for an XCish boost 29 wheel set?
Looking for something lightish to run ~2.4” tyres.

If I remember later on I’ll try that combo out and report back. Rarely use my Topeak gauge as it lies through its teeth
Thanks both. I've since found a Reddit chat that suggests the combo works fine.
yup, last years ghost wheels still on sale
had them on my Top Fuel since this time last year... suit me ok
Before I order some Fillmore Valves, does anyone know if they'll work with an Airshot? My tiny brain can't workout how you'd get the head to screw into the Fillmore.

yes, they do. The airshot end screws onto the valve stem.
really happy with my fill mores - have them across all of our mountain bikes now. The only issue I've had is that you need to be careful with the valve caps. they can come loose - we had one shake off on an uplift/or in transit somewhere.

Lovely thanks, I've just done a bit of Googling and I never realised that the 'valve core adaptor' came off so you can screw over the valve rather than into it. I've only had it 6-7 years!
Off to order some, thanks @scruff
@dirkpitt74 I have a set of new Evo black cranks here I dont think I am going to use now?
@Andy have dropped you a PM.

or Merlin doing big reductions on Cannondale xc wheels (they've a 3mm offset in rear specfic to cannondale frames but I just adjusted that out (didn't actually check that it's OK to do so but ASSUMED it was well within the inbuilt margin of spoke insertion 🤠 😬 )

Ordered the Fillmore valves as wanted some for a while, didn't pay attention and add the second pair to the cart though and they have sent me one pair. Doh!

Send them a message explaining, Reserve (Santa Cruz) are pretty good with warranty etc so would hopefully see you right.

Excellent, thanks! With the hosepipe ban up here in Yorkshire, cleaning bikes is a PITA and they are due some love. This will make life easier.

I can't see any handlebar fixings in that box!Does it come with any or must you buy your own?
Does it come with a battery even?

Looks like a rubber loop to hook round the bars and onto the attached mount to me.
Does it come with a battery even?
And battery in the pouch? (which looks flimsy)
Does it come with a battery even?
the light? the battery is in the small pouch, the rubber bar mounts will be in the bag.
I had a planet x version a little while back. they're OK. certainly for a tenner it's pretty decent.
Looks the same as the plazma ones that on one/planet x used to sell. Rubber band hooks the light onto the bar, and the battery is in the black pouch. Not the brightest, but two of those on your bars would work well for a cheap alternative!

same here and their T&Cs don’t state what the criteria for being included in the sale is.
Don’t think the bikeinn thing has started yet.

code worked for me and gave discount, except on the one product which had a 'not eligible' note

We close our week of deals with Cyber Monday—the ultimate day for online shopping.
that's really annoying. I'm going to look back in a week and see if theres enough extra saving to be worth buying these things again and sending the first purchases back. Unlikely given what I bought.
I'm not sure that Rapha code makes many things cheaper than they were in their sale a few weeks ago. Appears they've pulled the now fairly widespread practice of just raising prices in advance of a BF code or similar.
For example the Trail.pants were half price a few pages back and the only ones left with discount are in more limited sizes.
^ and still grossly overpriced for the quality and performance. An interesting exercise in lifestyle marketing aspirational bollocks.
£20 Fox shorts (delivered). I got two and they are genuine. The usual Fox small sizing. I am 32 or 33 in jeans and had to go for 36. The tracking works well too. All legit.

Have you used any of the Rapha MTB clothing? I have found the stuff I've used great, pricing not bad in the sales and no higher than other premium brands.
Still lots of their MTB stuff on sport pursuit with good discounts.
