Found a Bargain? Do Tell.

Order a free catalogue from Rose http://www.rosebikes.co.uk/
and they send out a free well made draw string type backpack and a phonebook sized catalogue

Ordered 3 days ago and arrived Today... it is very impressive! Like a Littlewoods catalogue but full of Ultegra hubs and spoke keys, instead of ladies underwear.

Yep, ive had both for around 12 months or so. The pump is lightweight and will definately get you sufficient pressure for the ride home. The bags are good but one word of warning although not critical is that the front velcro strap that wraps around the tube has come off both off my topeak bags. Not a biggie as they can be replaced or use cable ties like me but worth pointing out imo.

Cheers thanks...now ordered ..

got all excited abt the wheels for £128 but then i checked the detail :-

"Compatibility: Clincher wheels with either Shimano 9/10 speed or Campagnolo 9/10/11 freehub"

The description in the advert is incomplete. Generally there is no distinction between modern Shimano 8 and 9 speed hubs, so those Shimano compatible rear wheels will take 8 speed cassettes without modification. OTOH Campag 8 hubs are entirely different to the higher speed version.

The question though is whether those wheels, at 2kg a pair, are any better than what you have already if yours aren't worn or broken. For road wheels if you look up Fulcrum's or Mavic's offerings in e.g. Ribble you will find the next step up are half a pound lighter for say £50 more, which imho is good value for money - to get another half a pound off your wheels you will need to spend hundreds more.

Got mine today and it's a cracking wee bag. Ideal for my helmet or cycle shoes.

It is isn't it? Like a Littlewoods catalogue for mamils!!! I got a phone call at work today:
SWMBO: You've got a parcel, what is it?
Me: Porn
SWMBO: Splutter
Me: open it.

Lidl have got skiing gear in on 1st November (link). Worth a look if you're after some base layers for the winter.
