    Moa is the name of Nalina, not sure if it Nalini changed to that or the other way around. Based on Nalini it would be decent gear.

    The reason for the price difference is that Merlin are selling off the last pair they have so want rid. If they fit they do seem like a good deal - I'm saying that based on the Nalini shorts that I have rather than this clothing. But bib tights for <€40 is a good deal.

    Seems like a great price as includes delivery, but
    a) I'm not mad on the look of it
    b) Thankfully (for me!) the website keeps crashing on me and I can't order - this is not a bad thing as I don't need any more gear!

    I found that it crashed before and after I'd accepted cookies. I eventually got it to work when I went from the cart immediately after I'd added the kit straight to the checkout.

    Picked up the the Argos gear - not bad for €42 delivered. I needed some new shorts.

    probably only had a few sets, and you can be sure every cycling forum in europe is talking about 50% discounts at rose right now. Skerry, hope your order gets fulfilled, as i do with the tyre orders some of us have placed

    Wheels arrived today, look very nice. Need to pick up a cassette tomorrow now and hopefully get maiden voyage next week. €175 for wheelset and 2 x GP4000's, hard to beat.

    They're the tubeless ready job but will take tubes too. Just hope they're not a nightmare to get clinchers on/ off of. Not sure I'll be taking the plunge to go tubeless just yet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,645 ✭✭✭krissovo


    Mine arrived as well from Rose, the cassette is missing 2 spacers and the RS 10's rear hub is damaged so will not spin freely:mad:

    The Ultegra wheels are nice though on the upside

    I got my package Today too.
    I didn't receive any spacers either for the rs10's. Are you sure they're supposed to be included?

    It was the 105 cassette that didn't have the spacers

    Get in there, I have just bought these.....great value, cheers robfahy :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 112 ✭✭VR46


    Not sure about the white Argos Shimano shorts but it would have been rude to say no at that price.

    Planet-X seem to have a decent sale going all year round. Just ordered a set of lights for 30 quid. They're 55 on Chainreaction.

    Just ordered said kit, damn this thread. Be interested to see what the quality on the chamois is, if it's the Pearl Izumi 3d pad then your bottom is on for a treat, got a pair with the same pad and they're the best shorts I've ever had. If not they'll always do as stinky turbo trainer shorts.

    I purchased. Now to practice the line: "Ah sure, I always had white cycling gear. How'd you never notice them before!" :D

    oh right. I wouldn't have thought they'd come with spacers either. I thought it'd just be the wheel if anything that would come with spacers (to fit an 8 speed block on an 8/9/10 speed hub.) hopefully the cheap rose prices make up for it! :-)

    Add them to your basket and you'll see. Those Ultegra 6700 pedals are half price. Don't need them but I want to buy them. :mad:

    My mother picked me up a copy of Nico Roche's book in dealz Blanchardstown today for €1,49 said there were a few more copies too, if it qualifies for this thread


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,788 ✭✭✭g0g


    Ok a slightly weird one as I can't post what the price will be, but possible bargain alert for later on via the amazon.co.uk Black Friday lightening deals. Some of the below might be nice Christmas presents!

    19:00 slot includes:
    GPS - Edge 800, Europe. Seems to be unit alone with base maps. Current Amazon price is £ 231 delivered.
    Book - The Pain and the Glory - normally £ 11.08
    Book - Tour Climbs (guide to every TdF climb ever) - normally £ 14.74 (hardback)
    Book - Mapping Le Tour - 100 routes etc. Normally £ 16.25 (hardback)
    There's also a L/S cycle jersey in that time slot.


  • Registered Users Posts: 706 ✭✭✭the boss of me

    Not very much here but Aldi have a couple of bits of cycling clothing in their special buys next Thursday the 21st.

    https://www.aldi.ie/en/specialbuys/thursday-21st-november/

    Although I'd like to point out that I was in Sportsworld (Heatons) Carrickmines yesterday (I assume all other Sportsworlds are doing it) and they had lots of Karrimor gear at great prices. Off top of my head All Jerseys (incl. Hi-Viz) were €18, Jackets at €24, padded cycling pants at €18, overshorts €12 and other deals.

    Hope this info might be useful to some here. New daily commuters like myself.

    The older cycling gear in Aldi (Usually hanging on racks) Winter cycling jackets and winter cycling tops are showing 18.99 and 12.99 but are actually now 12.99 and 6.99 (or close to that)

    For daily commuting they are fairly good for those prices. You'd be pushed to get a T-shirt in pennys for those prices. The winter jacket is ideal for me as I was starting to wear a hoodie under my rain jacket. :o Pleanty of stock in the Belgard Road, Dublin branch.

    The manger also told me tonight that the running gear they have is being reduced as of tomorrow.

    Hello,

    How do you find the sizing?

    I'm 5' 7/8 and a 32/33 waist. Would Medium be OK? I can't wrap my head around their size charts :/

    Looks like it dropped to £150. I was out, so I missed it. I know last year a few deals resurfaced, so hopefully this comes around again.

    Cheers for the heads up managed to nab one. Been tempted to upgrade to an Edge 500 for a good while at an extra £10 for the 800 it's a bargain.

    I'm 5'11 and a 33/34 waist. I went for a large but I haven't received it yet, should be ok.
