Polaris bib-shorts down from £75 to £20: http://www.polaris-bikewear.co.uk/Pursuit-Road-Cycling-Bib-Shorts-p/pol01-4020-p.htm All sizes available at time of posting.

These turned up at work today. Although I haven't tried them on yet, the quality is excellent.

I also got a pair of the winter cycling liner gloves and am really impressed. They are almost identical to the Planet X365 race gloves, that are my favourite gloves, perfect for 5-15 deg temps.

I'll be shopping at Polaris again.

Ultegra 6800 bottom brackets are £10 at a few places, which is as cheap as I've ever seen them. £9 at Halfords with BC discount:

Lezyne SV-7 multi-tool was £21.99, reduced to £10 (or just £9 with BC discount) at Halfords:

To be fair, it's only a fairly basic multi-tool, but it's from a good brand and it's less than half price.

It was never worth a grand, believe me as a life long MBR reader you can get sooo much better for the same price tag. However, it's still not bad for £500 if that's your budget.

Any other good uns for £500 then?

It's the best I've seen for £500!
Good spec XT/Deore, Rockshox Recon Gold 120mm Forks retail around £220. Shimano Hydraulic discs, Crank Bros bars, stem and seatpost are not cheap. I can certainly see why the original RRP was a grand so a cracking buy at £500.
If I didn't already have a decent MTB then I'd be interested.

I don't know a lot about mtb's but yeah the level of kit looked good for £500, it's an older model 2015 I think, but some retailers are still asking more like £800 for that bike.
