Found a Bargain? Do Tell.

[please do not turn this into a helmet rant]

I have just bought one of these and consider it an utter bargain https://www.amazon.co.uk/Base-Camp-...pID=51C1tx3g-TL&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch

The visor removes instantly and can be fitted upside down for when dark. The helmet looks normal without the visor fitted, and I also bought an extra yellow visor.

The build quality looks excellent, nicely finished and as good as my much pricer Giro Atmos.

Fit suits my head. Which many brands do not. I am at the large end of the spectrum and very round headed too.

Finally it looks great when on with the screen in place. Adds 10mph to the speed other cyclists perceive me to be passing at!

The thought occurs that this may suit spectacle wearers. Enough room between glasses and visor? Mmmm...

Look quite nice:

and only today did I even think that there were gender specific cycling glasses.

Edinburgh Bike Co-Op a good outfit.

Will need the basket bumping a bit to get free postage.

There's some other £1 bargains on the site but not free delivery

Cripes, planetx isn't even claiming an original price for that.

Very modest of them.

You can, genuinely, pay a fiver for that sort of thing - I bought one a while ago at that sort of price.

Think they have this deal on all/most of the time. I bought some a few years ago & only just onto the 2nd one. Good value

#edit just searched & found I've posted this twice, Mar 2014 & Dec 2016 so don't worry if you miss this deal, I reckon it'll be back on sometime soon

I was about to pull the trigger a 5L from Halfrauds when I stumbled on this deal ... phew, that was a close one!

Thanks for that. Was intending ordering some hydration drink anyway so popped a pair of these in my basket. Like them anyway but even better at that price.

What they like rubino pro ? Anyone use them ?

They're on one bike here and seem like a good compromise road tyre. Not as armoured as some, but not as solid and slow as them either. An upgrade from Vittoria Zaffiro or Giant P-R.

They're my commuting tyre - long-lasting and decent enough,

I really like them. Good compromise between decent rolling and puncture protection.

Have ordered a couple. ETA Friday, in time for a long ride on Sunday

Commuting fine but I wouldn’t use for performance riding.
