Non-Ebay Deals/Bargains

I've had an acknowledgement and the respondent said they would get back to me tomorrow

An update regarding the generic torque wrench planet X jobsworth / wiggle or chainreactions brand-x etc. These are not ISO certified.

I will buy the blue spot torque wrench which is, also the lifeline one and other similar generic torque wrenches are also certified.

I am sure then non-certified ones are fine but I just want to be sure.

Just got email from Wizard Works, they have a sample sale on Saturday.

In person only?

Looks like it, they give the address as a loading bay :(.

That's a shame, won't be able to make it down, their stuff is nice though!

105 disc brake groupsets back in stock briefly and still at sale price. I was on the notification list for one but managed to get most of a groupset on here.

Probably not for most people on here but might be useful for friends/family. The company I work for, Buzzbike, are offering the first month's rental for £15, down from £30.
We're a bike hire company, you rent a 3 speed city bike by the month, which includes all maintenance/servicing. The bikes aren't too exciting but are perfect for non-bikey people who want a cheap means of transport!
Anyway, the code for a discount on your first month is LOZBUZZ15 and the site is https://www.buzzbike.cc/ - full disclosure, whoever gets the most referrals by the end of October wins a prize, although I can't see myself making much more effort to participate than this...

A lot of bike for the price on Facebook marketplace. The presence of all bells and whistles suggests it isnt stolen, and super old facebook account.

35% off lapassione bibs, good deal, imho (postage is £9, though)

Well that didn’t last long. Wonder what was up with it.

Do folks not wear jerseys these days?

Decent enough price for a 650b dynamo wheelset. I have a pair of the Kanza's and they are decent for the money (seem to have been replaced by something else now though).

Save money by riding bike outside!

But I want to belong

Thought I'd post this Rowan Frameworks here. I've bought a lot from the seller and he's an absolute gent. Very unfortunate genuine reason for sale.
Appreciate its a lot of cash but it is quite special.

Damn. Always wanted a Rowan, shame he stopped building.

Enjoy

Ah yes, has all the hallmarks of a scam. Pictures from an eBay ad, joined FB in 2021. Fake pictures in the profile that make him look vaguely outdoorsy and believable.

I bet when you message him, he’ll say he’s recently moved so not actually in Norwich, but can take payment by bank transfer.

Can you link to the eBay ad the photos are taken from?

Does look suspect and obvs far too cheap.

Just to confirm… it is indeed a scam 😅

Messaged the cunt just to see what he says. Can’t take PayPal. He’s very happy with bank transfer though…
