Nice one. Went to order the other day and they claimed they had no stock. My gen 7 Apple Watch is dying a slow death (barely gets through a day if I do two workouts…) so we’ll see how the Garnin goes.

 

ive been looking for something a bit more “health” and less smar****ch too!

@snotrag I've got an almost new Ragley Marley 290 frame in bright green you could have for £150...

Great price for the stif squatch. Far more of an all rounder than it would suggest, can do full on enduro but also surprisingly adept at other more sedate riding.

Google have good trade in prices if buying a pixel 9a

They're offering £345 trade in for my pixel 7 which brings the price of the 9a down to £154. Also get £25 store credit.

The trade in for the pixel 9 is £231 for my pixel 7.

That's tempting, they"re offering £260 for my old pixel 5 which seems like a lot for a 4 year old phone, even though it's in great condition. 

Did a quick search of their trade in partner which put me right off the idea

My wife and I have both used Google trade-in in the past, and both times it's been easy and they've given us the quoted amount. Just have to be honest about the phone. 

I'd happily use them again.

  1. is the IFP. Chamber ok for clearance as the rear bed compresses? Test carefully. It looks close.

Garmin Epix Gen 2 Pro for £369. 
I’ve been really happy with my non pro, but the pro gains the flashlight and better sensor. And seemingly 0% finance!

Not a bargain one this but the Conti Argotal Enduro Ultrasoft 29x2.4 is finally available to the public. It's still bloody expensive, £72 from Bikeinn or a little more from tredz is the best I can find but hopefully prices'll fall once it's in more shops, Conti UK aren't even advertising it yet. Should be an absolutely superb "hard use" allrounder considering how good the previous Soft and the dh supersoft are.

(OK maybe nobody else will actually care but I've been waiting for this one since I got my argotal soft when they first came out. I think they might have missed the boat though, the highroller 3 in exo+ got to me first)

£400 off a Fenix 6s Solar?!

My god, the Garmin website is almost as bad as the settings menu on my 530 to navigate!

Anyone know whether the 6s can do navigation? As in, load a route and show it on a (tiny) map? Do you get turn by turn guidance like I do on the 530?

Ir does it need to be the Pro model for that?

Google are offering £249 trade in on my pixel 6a with a cracked screen - but everything works. Mighty tempting is that.

According to https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2019/08/garmin-fenix6-series.html it needs to be Pro model.

I might be wrong, but from looking at a few articles, I think the "Solar" is only available as a 6S Pro, but I refer you to the start of my sentence...

Offered me about half that on a 6a with an intact screen... 🙄  (checked again - £102!)

EDIT: Ah, worked out what I was doing wrong, if you select a phone to buy and get an estimate as part of the buying process, it comes up with the higher amount, rather than just getting an estimate from the main page.

Yeah, unfortunately for me, I think you're wrong too.

I got a bit excited so tried to order one. The website kept crashing which I should have taken a sign. Instead however, blinded by discount fever I persevered.

I read that DC Rainmaker thing and looked on Talky Toaster. No maps for the 6s.

Cancelled the order 10 mins after placing it and then got a shipped notification about 5 minutes later.

Now I have to send back a watch that I didn't need or want.

Still a good PSA though.

50% off OS maps annual subscription. 

 

These stack onto existing subscriptions

Are you sure they stack on to existing subs? It says in the t&c's that the offer is for new subscribers only.

Yes, plenty of folk are stacking this. I've already got a couple of years on my account so I'm not going for it this time but I have in the past.

Is there a good place to find os routes to download? When i search on the app, it only gives me one result for off road riding in the uk. Not sure if I'm just being dumb.

Make sure you have a few of the partners ticked in the route search. 

Bottom of the filters section in the app. 

Screenshot from mine below, select from the list to suit what you are looking for. Screenshot_20250418-173700.png

50% off OS maps annual subscription. 

I’m already a subscriber and have read this I went and paid having logged in  

my app still says it will renew in July 

Now I read them their T&C say:

Offer is for new subscribers only.
Valid only on annual subscription, recurring payment can be cancelled at any time.
Subscription renewal will be at full price.
Cannot be used with any other offer or promotion.
Ordnance Survey reserves the right to end or change this promotion at any time.”

I’ll report back either way

Ooh nice one, they also have some of the SEs at £55 (which you can of course get the eternal Tredz £5 over £50 discount on, I think NLD7TLJLXN ought to work for anyone). Not sure the SE is actually worth the extra money but it's also more colour options and sizes including the glorious flo yellow, so I just ordered myself one of those. I got one of the hideous gold ones last year for £32 but £40 or £50 for a non-hideous one is worth the extra. Thanks!

3% topcashback also available.

That OS Maps offer stacked for me through to Jul 2027. OS Maps App updated straight after refreshing the page.

Cheers @cp

PS 1, think it finishes tonight

PS 2 , Odd i know, but I am sure the OS Map annual subs are fixed until your credit card expiry date is reached. Myself and a friend found the exact same! The above offer I understand defeats that peculiarities.

Maybe I'm late to the party on this but if you have Amazon Prime then the freeride movie Nothing's For Free is free to stream, and it is bloody fantastic. Like finding a new classic biking dvd in the era of 3 minute edits.
