Elemnt Bolt bundle (GPS unit plus HRM, speed, cadence) is back in stock on wiggle. Got a friend to order it for me with his Platinum discount (17% currently) which made it ~€245 if you pay in GBP. It's over €300 elsewhere.

Opted for this over the Garmin 520 because of its black and white screen being easier to read. Plus it's black!

This is effectively off topic. They are not offering a special deal on that item.

Wiggle are charging €300 for it, same as elsewhere.

You are exploiting some discount that gives you 17% off anything. Might aswell post a wetsuit or pair of running shoes that you can get the 17% off too.

To be pedantic if you put it in GBP as op stated it's €291

And you might as well have just said that the 17% discount will work on all items and left it at that, instead of being sarcastic and knocking the guy for posting a bargain that he felt he got.

The idea of this thread is highlight deals for specific items that other Boards.ie users may wish to avail of.

He is using someone else's account, in all likelihood against the spirit and letter of the terms and conditions of Wiggle.com, and it really does not matter what the item is.

Unless we can all avail of the 17% discount legitimately, it is off-topic.

If you use discount code BeSeen1 is makes the price 83.14.

That's a proper bargain! I'd imagine wiggle are going to spot my order soon, and turn that code off against that "light"

Or if you're a strava premium member you get a discount code for wiggle - use this code and the price is €77.44.

I also tried to use BeSeen1 but it only accepts one code per order!

100% agree. Can't understand why someone thinks your post was sarcastic. There is no general discount on the listed items. No bargain alert!

The discussion is now off topic, this post is off topic. Poster wasn't doing any harm and highlighted a discount that is available to Strava premium users.
For the love of cycling can we move on or I will need to unsubscribe from this thread, it's not a legal case.

Quick, everyone do as Cionn says; we can't have Cionn unsubscribe!

another prime exclusive, but get a free trial or sign up for a month if you want to save a decent chunk on this



polar M460 GPS and HRM
£70, normally about €150 alone for the GPS and closer to €200 for GPS + HRM

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B06ZZJ8W28/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&psc=1

decent looking unit, with live segment support too

Has anyone any experience of these helmets? I’m just looking to get something a little bit aero to get me through the winter. Are they safe at that price? I wonder are they big or small fitting. S/M goes to 58cm. L/XL starts at 58cm. I’m 58cm 🙄 Eenie.. meenie..

Have no experience with these helmets. But bought a Mavic one last year and I was in between sizes. They only had the medium in the colour I wanted so went for it. The helmet fit but the straps are tight. Just something look at

For £20 is it any good? What’s catching my attention is the ability to wear my glasses under the visor on a windy day without my eyes tearing up. I can’t wear contacts easily.
