Non-Ebay Deals/Bargains

I have that one and a cyclops alien, prefer the EVO for ease of adjustment and comfort. I rate it.

How difficult would it be to remove or polish out the logo on a Tí frame I wonder.

Not that hard, or get it media blasted.

I use one on my road bike, bikepacking for a fortnight & several other weekenders with no slipping issues.

Also, anyone tried the bars yet?

Tiny creak when I flex them (not fitted to bike yet), but I think this is from the cable guides on the underside...

Re: bars, I found the shifter position too far out for modern sti. I have a quick comparison between this and an FSA bar, both having a 80mm reach

USE summit

FSA k-force light

I ended up putting this on a fixed road with the shimano single speed lever (which have the older hood shape)

My experience:

• weigh 190g
  
• drop has a nice shape
  
• the dimples by the palms don't do much
  
• quite stiff (switching from 26mm bars)
  
• cable management is great for small frames (mine a 48cm with a 9cm head tube), where there tends to be quite a bit of cable bend for the front brake. The hole stops the cable from yanking the bar tape away.
  

Nice one. Cheers for the reviews, all. I'll mull it over a bit before deciding.

What is this, 2010?

🤷🏼‍♂️

There's a reason they're on sale

also who built that website?!

https://www.aldi.co.uk/crane-black-lumbar-bag/p/813181586807802

Waist bag with two water pouches for £10. Looks like it could be handy for longer rides on hot days.

Although some of the reviews are describing it as a vest - it's a bit unclear from the photos how exactly it's worn. Might be worth checking out in-store.

How could it be a vest? It says lumbar. (Not directed at you, just confusion)

I think I figured it out. The reviews are from this product: https://www.aldi.co.uk/crane-black-running-vest/p/813181583923400 but they've just applied them to that other one as well

so.....what's going on here then? Looks like the HF, pic is of the HF, features are the same, spec is of the HF one ie dimensions, identically described as the other variations they have listed just with different (actually, lesser) paddles.

a quick money grab in the hope the odd person just forgets about it?

same pic, same spec, surely same boat although says the manufacture is AB Tools...Bought one for a pal and I (on credit card for extra protection) - reckon it's a glitch and they'll be cancelled/refunded, money grab and you'll get you're money back fairly easily (provided you remember to claim!) or some (likely Chinese) copy turn up?

Edit: OR are 2 'performance' paddles going to turn up....no kayak....odd that the reduction is from £99 when they rice the same kayak with lesser paddles at £240 odd

tempted to give it a try as well - Amazon is usually not impossible with refunds.
Not the right time for me to be buying a kayak though, with a house move shortly on the horizon! ;P

It might come in handy if you're moving downstream

cc @Sparky ??

This is very tempting - rivers and lakes a-plenty round here - did the confirmation e-mail state the same description?

Link if anyone wants it

Is this going to be like those gold-ish Bern helmets that went for 3 quid, where every one you see has a link to on here?

I wish I'd got one or two of them at the time. I'll never forget the mis-priced £2.99/3.99 schwalbe G-One speeds that SJS honoured, though.

Ha! My kids all have the helmets. Missed the tyres though.

We could have a LFGSS flotilla of these kayaks...

Thanks, but I'm still naively holding out for success

Once caught a major retailer out on a box of 25 or 50 9sp chains for the price of one chain. They profusely apologised and I let it go.
