    And make sure size 37 fits you. It seems to be the only size they have

    not much of an alert if you don't let others know where to get it!

    I presume it should be “Planet X”, not just “planet”?

    They were amongst the first kit I bought. I wore them for few months, then very rarely afterwards and sold them a few years later.......I couldnt get over the Sky connections I think :cool:

    They were great! Sadly worn through in places now so they've retired. On a lighter note I got abuse off 2 frenchmen on the Etape in 2015, they assumed I was "a doper like Froome"

    was that related to how fast you were climbing?

    I went to the LBS a few weeks ago looking for suggestions for a new bike around the €2,000 mark, he recommended either giant defy advanced 1 or 2 at prices of €2199, or €1999.
    I just went onto the giant longmile road store website to convince myself i need a new bike and they are reduced to €1759, and €1599. I dont know if their sale is across the board, but my procrastination may have saved me 450.

    End of season sale it's the same craic every year you have to be lucky with the sizing though. 2019 models will be filtering in shortly.

    I always keep an eye out in TK Maxx for these type of tabs. I've gotten the last three years supply for the reduced price of 1 tube! They seem to always make the mistake of labeling the box on a reduced price for 1 tube and the box contains 8 or so :p ends up about €5/6 for the lot!

    Cycleops Hammer for €790 about as cheap as I've ever seen it. Close to €700 with an axa card. Price fluctuates daily. Collecting mine on Monday.

    Yeah, got it for a similar price a couple of weeks ago but then went straight out of stock so didn't post. The trainerroad guys rate it higher than the direto (which was also on offer). Noisier than my elite turbo muin, but that's not an issue where I have it set up. Loving erg mode in trainerroad...

    Seems to be some sort of Birthday flash sale on Probikekit.uk. Picked up a Lazer Z1 for cheap.

    Not really a bargain alert but I backed the Kickstarter for these and it's allowing be add an extra set for £48 (pre order price is now £79.99) or a rear light for £24 (pre order £44.99), if anyone is interested send me a PM in next 24hrs and i'll add it. I believe they are being shipped soon.

    I'm only allowed add one set and one rear light to the order though.


    Edit: both taken now.

    2nd Edit: it will let me add 5 sets or 5 rear lights at that price if anyone else is interested

    That is not the name of a website, and you have not listed an offer - i.e. what the item is and the price.

    A hasty post between meetings in work. It appeared to be a flash sale on many items.

    I had discovered it purely by chance and picked up an item that I was looking to purchase.

    Looks like it may still be running:

    Just To say if yer thinking of ordering something there is a good chance of you having to return, like different sizes or something. They used to be ok but recently their delivery is gone very slow first off and then their customer service is terrible. I had to return something and took 6-7 weeks to eventually get it refunded. They didn’t refund return postage as promised either. Found them very poor to deal with.
