My bro wants some decent wireless running headphones. I’m think the Powerbeats pro, which aren’t cheap, but if I can find a deal somewhere that’s his Xmas present sorted

Maybe not the type of headphone he wants, but the Shokz OpenRun are discounted on Amazon, £130 down to £90, mine just arrived

anyone seen any good deals on sony cans ? Specifically the WH-1000XM4s ?

I/work bought a set end of last month.

What i see is that argos are going to put them on sale in black friday - that is they have increased from 249.99 last month to 279.99 .....

Everywhere else has held fast at 249.99.

great noise cancelling and conferancing phones though for noisy open plan offices.....

Haha, I would probably have got a pair of those if I hadn't recently picked up some Superstar wheels for £125.

Oh well 😀

I've probably said this on several years' BF threads now, but I had advance sight of Amazon's BF list about 5 or 6 years ago for work purposes.

I was initially all excited and getting ready to bag some bargains, but it was almost all non-deals on poorly reviewed or old dross. Supporting the research that BBC story mentions.

At least we can tell what's a deal or not when it comes to cycling stuff.

BF deals only work for me if it’s something you were going to buy anyway.

That stif deal looks bonkers. Bottom fallen out of the not-electric bike market?

Shifting of previous model stock by the look of it (remember Stif is Jungle too so the SC distributor).  Good deals if you're after 27.5 both ends.

Agreed, those SCs look seriously better value. Almost tempted to get a Nomad for the kid....

Those SC deals are incredible, for 27.5 enthusiasts.

Get stuck in jibbers.

Indeed. Eg. Bikester's 70% off jobs, they definitely ain't sticking everything in their clearance up by 70% !

Mind that Stif/Jungle are the importers, so makes sense that they might be able to do deals that others cant

Shame those SCs are all 27.5. And shame I don't have the money.

Magura MT5s at R2 Bike - should work out at about £95 landed.

There's also Code RSCs for €210 which should still work out cheapish with VAT and duty added.

Edward2000, ive had the powerbeats and i wasn’t a massive fan. For under half that price i now have the ESC Sounds Series 3. Better in every way 🙂

I started looking yesterday for something similar for running and found The Best Running Headphones among other articles. Main criteria for me is waterproof, decent sound quality and optional noise cancelling. Capping my spend at £100 so the Jabra Elite 4 Active are now heading the shortlist... and these peeps rate them:

Never heard of ESC, but this chap reckons the sound quality isn't great (which is of course very subjective):

Jabra Elite Actives are pretty good, would buy again.

Mine have no NC and I dunno what model number they are though.

Not sure what your point is, but I shopped on there and it was items in a clearance, with lowered prices, with an additional 70% off the lowered price with a code (discount went from 50% a few days before). So, as the post I quoted, we could tell it was actual low prices for the Black Friday sale.

I think those 27.5" deals show just how dead that market is. Chain reaction have 40% off the 27.5" Nukeproofs and Stanton had all theirs reduced too. Similar deals just aren't there on 29ers.

If anyone likes CHPT3 stuff (I do it's nicely made and fits well) they have up to 60% on some items. Limited sizes though.

Deals on tyres seem to be following this pattern too.. at least on CRC / Wiggle.

If you, like Trek, thought the Wavecell helmets were a complete revolution in cycling - now's the time to buy one! For some reason the Bontrager lids are about £100 off on Sigma 😀

The new Shimano Ultegra 8170 and Dura-Ace 9270 wheels have between 40 and 50% off on Chain Reaction. Oddly, just the individual wheels rather than the wheel sets. I just bought the Ultegra pair for near enough half price.

Shame the bike to put them on won’t be here till the new year, but oh well.

I wonder if these massive discounts actually reflect how much bike kit prices have been increased. its just discounting back to a sensible price

20% off at Opie oils with code HUGE20

Nobody ever buys anything full price from Opie though! Their ebay shop is usually priced the same as their main shop with the 20% off. Still usually good prices.

Yep, I picked up a high end carbon rear wheel for £200 earlier this year, the same item for 29er was £600 IIRC. Not even in a sale, that was a permanent knockdown.

RRP of £6000 for a bike with an nx groupset is... optimistic.

Well I've made the decision on the TV. Going to be the Samsung QN90B 65". Did consider the QN95B, which was the same money but at 55" as it has the external box thing, but overall the 90 seems the better spec.

Just now have to find one with actual money off and not one of those pretend deals, where it was a higher price for a month in some small shop in the corner of the back of the beyond.

Ninja have a slightly odd BF thing for fast cookers, if that counts - they're doing some "special edition" stuff cheap, the non-copper coloured version of this is normally £350 or so, it's been out of stock everywhere but got an email today from Ninja saying they've got more, so just placed an order. 🙂

R2-Bike have this one.. check the part number for compatibility though. Should come out at about £185 + courier charges.
