Non-Ebay Deals/Bargains

Mine turned up, and potato grey is mint. Fit perfectly as well. Thanks for alerting, probably my most bargainous purchase of the year

No problem, glad to help shoe another forumist!

I was just about to drop nearly 100 on something quite similar, so I was glad to spot them

Banging!

Have you tried that Amazon warranty before? Is it worth it?

I have not.
I generally would just threaten ombudsman for insurance stuff anyway as the regulators will mostly side with you if the wording isn't clear on the policies. I would think it being through amazon as well they would want it dealt with minimal fuss.

I have a rear light from moon comet that stopped charging after a couple years, shame because it was a good light until then. Died half way through Dunwich Dynamo as well which was less than ideal

Decent black Paria jersey for £19 in good sizes too:

I think these have been available for a while but still a bunch of cheap Teravail tyres on Lyon Equipment. I’ve got a pair of the 700x30 Telegraph on my winter bike and I’m impressed with them. Easiest tubeless setup I’ve ever had as well. £50 for the pair.

I read some reviews of these earlier in the year, they sound like a really nice ride

Extremely niche but…

Anyone looking for a polished silver 24mm axle road crankset, Pashley is flogging a load of these nice Miches they must’ve had specially made for £50 a pop. Lots of different sizes in their shop - ordered one for a sweet 1x setup

I got some a while ago. Fitted them without sealant and that are still up now. It’s probably been 2 months or so. Just don’t try the with tubes, they are a total ball ache!

Bought and received this excellent Pro Koryak alu riser bar for £20 posted. Selling elsewhere for £50-70

Freecycle Dawes. In-between Tonbridge and sevenoaks but on the sevenoaks group

If these were subcompact capable I'd buy every single one. Unfortunately 110pcd only

Bikingreen offer subcompact 110bcd chainrings. No idea of shifting performance but seems to be well regarded by others.

How does that work? There aren’t any photos from the back. Is it a tab attached to the outer ring that holds the inner?

Also, what’s Bikingreens shtick? Kinda weird assortment of parts from other manufacturers then seemingly their own produced cranks and chainrings.

Looks like the two rings are connected.

Absolute Black also offer sub compact rings which are separate but are oval which may appeal or not.

Stone also make 46/32 or 48/33 rings which are also separate rings. I've got some 46/32 ones and they shift well.

Calibre Bossnut for a quid under a grand is a pretty smashing deal imo https://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/19663228/calibre-bossnut-full-suspension-mountain-bike-19663228

I would if I didn’t have a full sus already

Bargain may be a strong word here but https://r2-bike.com/ are doing 10% off site wide which works on sale prices. You'll need to factor shipping, handling fee and import duty and don't use paypal if you want a good rate.

As an example, back of a napkin maths puts a GRX 820 complete unstoppable 1x12 groupset at about £720 but ymmv, not import duty financial advice, etc.

Not sexy but I bought a dare2b puffer for £20. Plenty of non sexy stuff there.

Was looking for something else and these popped up, would have bought a pair but XXL only but a bit of a bargain if you are a sprinter.
Have a few pairs of Pearl Izumi longs and they are pretty good for the money.

GP 5k S TR at £50, 25-30c

Jeez, I remember when £30 for a road tyre was excessive

You don't need to have been cycling that long to remember either 🥲
