Picked mine up. Lovely piece of kit, ridiculously good price. Thank you

Very tempting at that price... the Edge 25 is probably plenty for me....for the 520 I'd get a wireless unit for the Di2 so I can see what gear I'm in...and battery level...stop STop STOP !!

Ha ha ðŸ˜Š sorry about that thought I clicked on right thread it's still good deal. I'll let you get back to your bikes sorry again

If you come across any Canagan Bargains, PM me! Fecking Cat is costing me a fortune

Fillet Tuna is cheaper

Anyways... This is just really a bump for the Halfords Garmin 520 @ 166e link, seriously good value.

Not connecting to a PC for uploading is something you didn't know you needed, till you had it.

You know you can use ST uploader for that http://www.sportablet.com/mobile-garmin-uploader.html

Chers Ruffmut

Picked up a Garmin 520 this evening in swords for €149 with an AXA card, no issues getting the 10% off.

I feel better that it's not a bundle with the other sensors given I bought a brand new one second hand recently

It's handy alright but I've almost been caught out a couple of time with a flat battery. Getting a charge in while uploading is the only benefit of having to connect to the computer.

9 Gels from Wiggle 2.40(expire october)
Good deal if you are ordering anything else to get the free shipping

http://www.wiggle.co.uk/wiggle-nutrition-energy-gels-pack-9x38g-exp-oct/

Edit: Its only available if you use your shipping address as the UK so Parcel Motel or other Northy address would be needed i think

That's an awesome little app - used to use it with my Garmin Forerunner 310xt: phone had ANT capability, else you just get a USB OTG dongle, STUploader (free 'trial' of 2 activity uploads, thereafter you must pay, but it's very much worth it!). Now most everything comes with bluetooth integration which is even easier.

Re the Garmin 520 in Halfords:
Whats included in this? Obviously no speed cadence or hrm sensors , but does it include a mount , a charger and all the necessary cables?

I bought one today.
No HRM sensor, no cadence sensor.

Two mounts included. An out front mount and the traditional Garmin plastic mount.
There is a cable for charging, it connects to a USB.
There is no charger, you plug into a USB port.

Thanks for the info. Ill pull the trigger on this now.

ProBikeKit have Sportful Giro shorts (with the big pad, if you like a big pad) for 24 euro or so. Also lots of other offers that are worth a look.

Google has some good offers in 5800 and all the options recommend to you

(It's a bargain alert thread not bargain request)

I'm requesting someone alert me if they have seen any outstanding bargains related to my alert, I'm aware how this thread works

CramCycle · 22-10-2016 09:05AM

MOD VOICE: It is a bargain alert thread, not a request thread or a discussion thread (although limited discussion on if it is a bargain or there is better out there is fine).
