    Hey :)
    - I bought the cycling glasses last time in Aldi, have to say they are really great, no problems whatsoever with them

    - The foot pump I would advise you to get, I find it really great and for a fiver its a great buy !!

    - Not quite sure about the computer, I have one that was bought in aldi back in March I think, and have no problems with it.

    - Personally I wouldn't get the lock, as it doesn't look reliable at all imo..

    - I bought the gel saddle cover last time around as well, nice and comfy I must admit :)

    - The brake pads look like the ones I bought in halfords for my hybrid bike, gonna pick up a packet anyway :)

    - Not sure about the bike lift.. if you would like one I'd say buy it :)

    Be very interested to hear if anybody had something to test the gauge on the pump against.

    The lock looked well made and handy but the cable in it was horrifically thin, doubt it would have been much stronger than fishing line, got some brake pads for my hybrid as well though, dirt cheap.

    I bought the last lot of cycling glasses and found them a bit **** tbh. Lens is awkward to change around. These look a bit better this time.

    I got the pump but more or less failed to use it on my presta valved bike. Air seeped out the schrader valve at first so I pushed the head further onto the valve at which time it stopped inflating the tire altogether. Then it was pretty difficult to get the thing off so after I did I kicked it to the corner of the room and used my old pump.

    Anything else on the pump? I need a new one and I'm considering it for a fiver.

    i had to deflate my tire and push the head down on the valve to get the pump working right, and once i got it working i had uber hard tires on my bike in no time at all

    Bought a pair of the multi lense sports glasses from Lidl today.
    For 5 bucks you cant go wrong buying a pair or two!
