Not as good a deal as the box of 100 Shimano stainless steel gear cables on ebay for £40 couple months ago. Doubt we'll see that again.
Just bought some endura humvee 3/4 shorts for £25.55
And endura humvee zip off trousers for £33.99
And an extra 10% off with code EXTRA10.
I should be good for quite a few years now
Are those Merlin cables stainless steel?
It doesnt say so, and mentions anti corrosion coating....could they be galvanised?
Specialized camber MIPS white helmet all sizes but small £13.60 code OUTLET20 add £4.99 delivery
https://www.houseoffraser.co.uk/brand/specialized/camber-mtb-helmet-930663
Up to ~£30 with delivery and discount code now .... still a good deal though ...
Very similar prices on Specialized Outlet webstore plus many other helmets, sizes and colours ....

If the picture on Merlin is correct then those inners are stainless. I still have a pile spare in the classifieds for less than that if anyone needs to stock up mind..
did anyone get on of the cheap exposure diablo mk3 sync last week, mines arrived today and no "QR handlebar mount" in my box, as per description and pictures,
to be honest i think the listing is incorrect as you dont normally receive one with exposure lights.

Beware on the Camber helmet, the straps are in a VERY weird position and the rear one sits on top of your ear instead of behind it.

Three someone with a similar issue in the returns thread, they got a voucher for complaining

@whatyadoinsucka I did. Listing was wrong and it wasn't supposed to be included. I argued that isn't my fault and they gave me a £20 voucher.
"A bargain is only a bargain if it’s what you’re looking for!"
This is true - which is why I'm claiming this, if they turn up (and I know its an If...) as the bargain of the century. Wanted some 'nice' XC wheels for ages, just nearly bought some used crossmax on ebay for more than these have cost.
Zipp Hitop S 30mm Carbon Wheelset. RRP about £1300.
£286.

I've just had my order confirmed. I made sure it was confirmed before I posted here.
The even fancier one with ridiculous electronic tyre pressure monitoring is not even that much more either. at £399... The pair. RRP about £1600.

use FUN20 to get a further reduction, brings the price down to around forty five quid, has anyone tried one of these?
weight seems good but not sure about the way it seems to open up, fine if it's not raining but if it is it could get things pretty wet?
wheels went out of stock before i could check out
I think I got a Pro5 / Fortus 26 rear wheel in boost 29er size for £62.
Confirmation email doesn't specify the exact hub setup though, so I'll be waiting in suspense.
thx for the headsup
Yep, similar here. Found the perfect wheel and it went out of stock while checking out. Found another with a SRAM instead and bought that. Will see what, if anything, turns up
Got a SRAM Red AXS power meter for £200 (cheaper than replacing rings on my current one!). There's dual sided ultrgra PMs for £199 too...
Similar here. XX SL T-type power meter crankset down from £1200 to £220!
I don’t need it but it looks nice 😂
I was all ready to buy a power meter and then remembered it's still £200 I'd rather spend on something else. Did end up buying some other crap though. Fingers crossed it all turns up.
I feel for all the staff who are going to be working hard right until the end.
centre lock hope pro5 hubs 18.99
https://www.wiggle.com/p/hope-pro-5-front-centre-lock-hub

Power metres out of stock pretty much. Shame I fancied a road one.
On the subject of hubs
Industry9 rear hubs for £139 isnt bad https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/p/industry-nine-torch-boost-rear-hub?color=black&freehubBody=Shimano%2FSRAM+HG&holeLengthRelease=28H+%7C+148mm+%7C+12mm
Ultegra 11 speed chain set £52 and deore ones £23.
Forks are under the hammer too, Lyrik ultimates for £212, Z1's around the £160 mark
175mm hope spiderless crank....
The full fire sale has definitely started. There's good deals on shoes and helmets
https://www.wiggle.com/p/troy-lee-designs-stage-mips-full-face-helmet-stealth
Stands out for £60
crankbrothers highline 7 droppers 55
Might be getting tied up in the rush to buy something but will these wheels fit this bike?
https://www.ragleybikes.com/products/big-al-1-0-hardtail-bike-2022
yes
Got to look at Wiggle, Chain reaction prices are higher for some reason?
Bleedin Wiggle site won't work for me. Had to reset my password as one I thought I had didn't work. Now it is asking for my one time passwood code to activate my account. No idea what that might be and where to get it. So went to my Chain Reaction account and the same thing there is still £120 rather than the £30 on Wiggle 🙁

Light grazing so far. Expensive sram 1x11 cassette down to £70, grx 810 shifters +1 caliper around £100 and a ixs body armour top down to £40. All stuff I've been looking at for the past week.
The wheels went really quickly!
Thank you @whatyadoinsucka for your noble Public Service Announcement on this thread
Was able to pick up many desired and high quality products at ridiculous prices
I would have missed out for sure without your prompt - many thanks
#BringBackSearchByDiscount
Oof - appear to have missed out on a SRAM xg1299 cassette for £80… 🙁
I bought some commuting tyres https://www.wiggle.com/p/continental-contact-urban-tyre
Seem to get a good review on https://www.bicyclerollingresistance.com/tour-reviews/continental-contact-urban
I am tempted by a set of 27.5 forks for daughters next bike, though was also thinking of going straight to 29!
this fire sale just cheapens everything, mt500 shorts £18, I could wear them for a year and stick them on vinted for £20 :0)
did anyone get a silver hope pro 5 boost 6bolt 32H, only thing I wanted but all gone,,
will make do with black, had to buy two to get the micro spline hub, will switch the Shimano HG and move it on
non-boost 26" Pro 5 wheels still £61.Perfect for the other half's Bfe. Shame its got an XD freehub, I'll be looking for a HG one when the wheels arrive.
Fox union boas, 2 leatt t shirts, leat clip 6 shoes, ixs pants. £130. Bonkers.
Also put a second order in for aeroe fat racks. £22.50 each.
Bought 3 so I have 3 cradles. Still a couple left.
Hope they fit my normal bike! I think they will...hope so!
