Pay the few quid extra and get the one with the Elastogel roller, it's much quieter and less severe on the tyre. I have mine a few months now and it's used 2 or 3 times a week without fault so far.

Extra €10 off per hundred spent on halfords.ie, taken off at the till.

Was just double checking the Elastogel on Halfords again, it seems it's the pack so you get the sweat protector, front wheel raiser and floor mat included for €130. Sold!

That's a good deal, I paid €116 for mine from CRC but that was just the trainer with no accessories.

Instore only again I take it??

Plastik · 29-01-2015 9:03pm

Is there any way of knowing what's in stock and where? Local Halfords is open until 9 but ... well, it would mean that I would have to leave the house.

Giving the shop a call is your best bet.

There's a stock checker on their website as far as I know

Gers_punto · 30-01-2015 8:27am

Catlike helmets are not on the website..

There is stock in limerixk but it's going fast

dastardly00 · 30-01-2015 9:24pm

No Catlike helmets in the Galway store unfortunately when I wandered in this evening.

Picked it up today. Was expecting the extra bits to be generic or halfords but they were elite branded. Happy out with it, going to give it a spin now with single speed while watching some TV.

Plastik · 31-01-2015 10:48pm

No Catlike is stock in Halfords Blanchardstown this evening either.

Darkglasses · 31-01-2015 10:53pm

I don't think I've ever seen Catlike equipment stocked in Halfords in Wexford.

ckeego · 31-01-2015 10:59pm

My missus picked up 2 Catlike Vacuums today-only reduced to 54 euro each..

Still a lot better value than the 101 on Wiggle..

The Medium one doesn't fit me-anyone want it rather than have to return it?

It is Black and fluoro yellow-Interestingly whilst both of them came with the pads etc, there is no peak..

devonp · 31-01-2015 11:02pm

Tail end of Chain Reaction's January sale right now, depending what sort of general accessories you're looking for. They have quite a low minimum for free postage, too (though not a concern if you're ordering a shedload, obviously).

From my memories of helping my dad with DIY stuff, this is great for cleaning your hands of oil after doing work: https://www.aldi.ie/en/specialbuys/thurs-5-feb/products-detail-page/ps/p/swarfega-orange-1

devonp · 02-02-2015 3:59pm

when i worked summers in my Grandfathers garage, this stuff used to come in large tins and was green with a sort of grit mixed into it, worked great, also removed many layers of epidermis along with the dirt....maybe the orange stuff is less severe and less effective..let me know

devonp · 02-02-2015 4:03pm

either way i'd better not get that as the Valentines gift!!!

TheBlaaMan · 02-02-2015 11:14pm

Using code UKSTAFF20 there is an option for 20% off at Planet X at the moment. It looks like a staff members private discount but a thread over on lfgss.com shows that the company is happy for it to be on general release......., for how long, isn't certain.

Anyway, anyone fancy a Planet X Pro Carbon with 11speed Campagnolo Chorus and campagnolo khamsins for just £1040?

It was posted here about 2 or 3 months ago, I used it myself, worked fine, dropped it at an english address though as I was unsure how tightly they were looking.

markens2 · 03-02-2015 12:45pm

For anybody with a small head or a few large then Liffey Valley Halfords have catlike helmets all at €25

I used the UKSTAFF20 code today on the Planet X .co.uk site , with an Irish delivery address and it worked fine.
