Code is still working - got mine there for £74.67, I had isues with payment and mailed them and they asked me to pay in sterling and it worked and showing as €85.04 on my card.

Ok, got it to work on firefox. Just bought the XXL in orange as I've a 44inch chest. I really don't need this jacket but its Galibier and I know it'll be good and last well.

Myles and Co in Galibier will sort that for you if you want to change? I've never had a problem with changing an order or returning one. While they're usually on the ball when it comes to shipping orders, give them a call and see if you can change now or at worst, send it back once it arrives.

magicbastarder

ah, the code may have been used up by now, i'll be alright.

code was gone at 9.43am... missed the boat and had been watching for days :rolleyes: still, 100 euro for a quality jacket compared to the price of some of the "italian" brands (and others) is good. my brother has the old mistral in orange & Grey and loves it.

Galibier are great. their Winter gloves are the bees **** :-)

for all the slagging cycling Ireland gets (including from me !) this looks like a great idea

I agree and a good initiative. I have been meaning to do some S&C and Core work for ages and will be good to get a sequential cycle specific programme if it delivers

90 euro for Oakley Sutro's. got a pair from this shop in Italy 1 month ago at 115 euro and thought it was a bargain then :rolleyes: Free delivery and had them in 3 days.

Any chance of a photo of these on an actual head? I'm feckin torn about them with just a photo of them just in a studio.
Any idea why they are charging in dollars if they are In Italy?

I've a big head (large Kask helmet) so suit me always. but then you see the likes of Bernal and other pro's wearing them and are very smaller obviously. you dont want to see my mug on this forum

I’ve a small head, they look terrible on me, the 💯 look a bit better, but not much. So I have the Oakley prism and ev ray

Road bike rim brake calipers on Decathlon for €15 apiece.
Front and rear available.
They look like rebranded Tektro calipers.
Good for the money in my opinion...

If you have Amazon Prime (free shipping) and keep orders under 20 quid, you can have a Continental inner tube for approximately €4.80

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B008ZTM95C/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_image_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Not a massive saving, but UK VAT is being taken off and Irish VAT not being applied - which could workout well for many smaller items (works best with Amazon Prime subscription's free shipping)

Ekoi have some great deals on jerseys. Some helmets were half price last week - super super fast shipping. Worth signing up for their alerts

A month since the last alerts! Sure sign of Covid supply and Brexit impacting things id say!

This is my chamois cream of choice and at half price now, never seen it so cheap. Working out at just over €10 for 250ml large tub!

and still ricky villa

https://www.deporvillage.net/ have Garmin 530 unit only for €240, HRM bundle for €320 and MTB bundle for €320.
A tenner postage

I bought stuff off them a couple of weeks ago and have no complaints. Orders should come from Spain.
Anyone in the market for a 2nd hand 810? :rolleyes:

Another GPS unit and an alternate to Garmin. Amazon Germany have a good price on the Sigma Rox 12. See the link below and check out the used/other sellers. Amazon warehouse have the units for €207 plus delivery.

I have been through Garmin, Wahoo and Karoo units. This unit and the Karoo are the best I have used. It should be noted though I really value the navigation element/route following and I am purely a club spin/leisure cyclist. This unit hands down beats any Garmin/Wahoo for navigation at a reasonable price.

That link offers it to me for €469.39?

It was a second hand one in “acceptable” condition when you click other sellers option

Select the unit and not the bundle and look at the used ones. What you get are the ones being sold by amazon warehouse. Everything I have bought from amazon warehouse has been either new or as new condition.

Only one size 42mm for 650b wheels but these are nice tyres. Very light and grippy. Almost justify buying a set of 650b wheels!
