Found a Bargain? Do Tell.

Are they unisex sizes, and would a small be suitable for a woman with medium hand do you think? I know that you cannot be exact on this, but assume they are adults sizes.

Speicher - I find that you need a size smaller in the mens. I have smallish hands and have small men's Specialized gloves but would need a medium in the women's.

Thank you, I think I would be the same. Medium in women's gloves so small in men's sizes.

Hello Speicher,
I don't know the answer to your question, but HelenD123's response I would say is probably correct.
Here is the size chart off Specialized website which might help you - with the aid of a tape measure:

To be honest, at that price, it's worth a punt!

Gary.

Thank you Gary - another Worcestershire person.

I looked for a size chart but could not find the glove size. I rang one of the shops and he said that sort of glove is unisex. (which, I think means men's really). According to the size chart I am definitely Men's size small.

In the unlikely event that they are too small for me, I know a keen cyclist with titchy hands who I could give them to. As you say, at that price, with postage included, it is well worth a try.

Craghoppers Trousers. (craghoppers.com)

On their website lots of the trousers are half price or less. For instance Kiwi Classic was £35 now £15. Also on fleeces etc.

I know it is not cycling related, but people might do other outdoor activities. I do not have a Craghopper stockist near so I do not know if the same prices apply in their outlets.

The thing to watch tho is that some prices say from £X. This means that some colours of the garments may be the normal price. When you choose your size and colour it will state the price before you go to the check out.

I love my Craghoppers fleeces for cycling in

i had a look at the craghopper site but it wouldnt let me order, got through the process to the authorisation bit then it hung on a blank page in ff and ie.

I think you were unlucky there. I do not usually have problems with their site. Did you note the names of the items, then you could phone them on 0844 811 1022 just trying to be helpful.

Hope 1 front light from Wiggle now with 20% off bringing it down to £72... which can be further reduced to £67 by using a code for £5 off (sign up for the newsletter/mailings on their website and you'll get one, or change your subscription options if you are already a member and you'll get another).

Seems pretty good to me.

Seems pretty good to me.

Sh4rky, Hope you haven't bought it yet - you could save a wee bit more from Ribble: less than 65 quid still.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Errm, you may have surmised that I have indeed purchased it already.

Totally forgot to check ribble's site, but looked at a number of others and Googled to see what prices came up in the results too...

<sigh>

Oh well, win some, lose most.

It was only a few quid - but I did post it previously on page 68

Do Wiggle finally have it in stock ... I was able to take up Noodley's suggestion as Wiggle had kept me on hold for about 6 weeks waiting for the light.

If you think £99.95 is a bargain, you'll be pleased to hear that you can get the same light for half that: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.25149
