Not really a bargain, but happy to report/remind that "OUT OF STOCK" indications in product images (written on the product image itself) can be moot.. If the online shop lets you add to cart and checkout, there's no harm in trying... (of course from reputable dealers, or at least use paypal etc. so you have some kind of protection in case they delay the refund, if it actually turns out not in stock...)
Happy to report that I was able to snatch an Elite Suito trainer from such dealer, sleepless at 3am in the morning, legs itching and browsing trainers like a maniac, phone brightness turned down to -1 in attempt to not wake SO, I was able to add to cart and complete the purchase... And today it was delivered. Wasn't really sure they had it until I got the DPD tracking number, edge-of-your-seat fun all day yesterday. The dealer was cyclerepublic btw... Now they removed it from listing, and in the product page (which is accessible from Google results) "Add to cart" button is gone once again.
Suito seems nice enough, sometimes faint knocking noise yes, if it persists (or gets worse) I might need a replacement, but it'll do for the weekend at least.
