Very good prices on schwalbe tyres over on Planet X. Today only apparently.

Anyone find a good price for the cadence/speed sensor for the Edge 500? I haven't bothered to look yet.

Quick scan, Amazon appears to be the cheapest. €36-ish, free delivery. Good price when CRC and Wiggle are looking for €45 or €50 before delivery and LBS's are looking at €50 - €60.

kpac · 31-08-2011 3:26pm

Got Leopard Trek and Giant kits off this guy on eBay. Dirt cheap, quality isn't bad for the price, but obviously not up to the standard of paying €100+.

If you'd bought Leopard Trek and Radioshack you could mix and match bibs and jerseys for 2012. :pac:

Ah shtop...

The Giant kit was for my dad, actually. He's rightly kitted out now - blue/white 2010 Giant Defy 2, blue/black kit, blue helmet, blue gloves - all unintentional of course.

I think it was about €35 for jersey and bib shorts including delivery from China.

Rideable quality? But durability questionable? Sorry for the questions, but I was tempted by the prices and was unsure as to the rideable quality....;)

Ordered a HTC jersey and bib set. Just hoping for better than those lidl jerseys

There are orders every few weeks or you can put one together yourself but they are a bit of work, search for jerseys and order and you should find a good few.

I have 2 left in XXL from the original order, sixes are on the carvalho website.

Kevin dublin · 31-08-2011 6:59pm

Hi,

Any pics of the jerseys you have left?

Thanks

Kevin

Wow that really is super value...considering the SRM is worth approx €3,000...the wheels are worth another €3,000 roughly.

If I had the money I'd nearly buy it sell the frame and be laughing with what you have for around €3,000

But I don't have the money

Oh definitely. Good padding in the shorts and the jersey seems completely wind-proof like it should. With the price, I'd be happy if I got 2 or 3 month's use out of it...

Either M or L, not sure...who makes them?

Take your e-mail down before you become the new SPAMBOT play thing, bad idea to type it out like that.

seems a bit too good to be true but apparently Thinkbike in Rathmines are offering a free bike service between 9th-16th September

http://d1lf0h1wlh3cdl.cloudfront.net/creative/Dublin_Rathmines_Passport.pdf

offer is about 3/4 of the way down the page

Joxer_S · 07-09-2011 8:37pm

Was it £19.99 previously? I thought £29.99 was good!

Yep. They've doubled the price of their titanium skewers also.

Lemag · 09-09-2011 11:52am

Not a bargain per se but Ribble have the generally very well regarded Pro-Lite Bracciano wheels back in. £255.99

wanderer 22 · 10-09-2011 10:27am

Shipping to UK only?

EDIT: Aha, found link for shipping to Ireland :-)

Super Freak · 11-09-2011 10:54pm

Very similar to the original buff. A fraction of the price €7.99 I picked up a few of these about a month ago and I noticed today that my local branch has more in stock now.

If you like buffs you will like these.

http://www.oxprod.com/photo.php?id=1542

Edit: that's €7.99 for the triple pack.
