    Amazon usually has a good deal, I tend to buy from them in general:
    https://www.amazon.co.uk/Science-Sport-Recovery-Protein-Servings/dp/B0013GATGK/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1480586979&sr=8-1&keywords=rego&th=1

    Currently 1.6kg SIS ReGo for £16.07 (plus shipping). Normal price I pay is usually about £22, still much cheaper than SIS direct for £38!

    Sportspursuit have great savings on Spiuk shoes at the moment.
    https://www.sportpursuit.com/sales/spiuk-dec16 (needs fb account to sign in)
    I've the 16rc in green (very flashy) which I got for a great price off just under 120 delivered about a year ago (originally bought 15rc in early 2015 which were faulty, so they sent out the 16rc as a replacement) from probikekit.
    They probably arent as good as I'd hoped (previously had spiuk brios which I loved, in fact still going strong) but they are nonetheless a decent high-end shoe, very light and stiff, not sidi standard but a bargain at under a ton.
    The 16r are an absolute steal at 60euro imho and personally I prefer the single boa and ratchet setup to the double boa.
    Dont think you get many better bargains on sportspursuit.

    I find them grand, Im a size 8 normally and same in spiuk. Ive narrow feet so they suit me, currently wearing heavy socks so they can be a bit tighter but no problems.

    It just so happens a guy in work bought a set on Black Friday, but from Wiggle @ 61e.
    They were size 44 and fitted me fine. I am a 44 in Shimano if that helps. I'd also be a 44 in Mavic but they would be a tad tighter than the previous two mentioned!

    Would they be a regular or wide fit Shimano shoe?

    I have a wide fit shimano shoe and been wondering about equivalent sizing in other brands

    Hi Crocked, all mine (shimano) are normal fitting,not wide. Sizing wise Shimano would be the loosest of the 44's I've mentioned, and Mavic the "tightest". My colleagues Spiuks were in between.

    I bought this deal today..many thanks..
    Eventually after logging on registering giving my life details etc...
    Anyways it worked out at 60€ plus vat plus 8€ postage so approx 72€ and a 3 week wait.
    Still good value but patience required..

    Canyon 12 days of Christmas is back: https://www.canyon.com/en-ie/accessories/#category=specials&subcat=T108

    Limited selection there, but for anyone in the market for something like it, a set of Cosmic Elites for just under €200 delivered sounds like a bargain to me!

    What do they mean by "size 28"? The tyre on it is 25.

    The same thing as 700c basically

    Sheldon Brown has it as basically the German system for the same 700c wheels, so these are 700x25c

    What a dangerous thread.

    Would I notice an aero advantage with the Cosmic Elites over my 2012 Aksium Races? The Cosmics are a shade lighter, it seems. I think both rims are C15 wide?

    I'm looking for reasons not to buy these.

    Edit: I have a pair of Zondas for the summer BTW.

    Glad to help. Thats the thing with sportspursuit, you have to wait a bit but its grand if youre not in a rush.
    Its not a great site for Irish customers either, cos we cant get an advantage from using parcel motel, or buying in sterling unless you've an English address.
    Did you go for the 16r? I think I'd actually prefer them over the 16rc's I have to be honest, just cos they have a ratchet strap and only one boa closure.

    They're a bargain price alright.

    Are they much of an upgrade on Aksiums?

    All sorts get blamed for the failures of EU project; from Greek fiscal failures, refugees etc, but the Germans are still holding back on fully buying into a 200 yr old system because its French...

    4thebike.de have aksiums at 119euro plus under 20euro for delivery as an alternative.

    All you need to know is that they're 450 quid a pair on mavic's official shop site! :)
