Lidl Cycling Gear Thurs 5th July

[RoubaixCube]

They had light sets when I was in today, and not the get-you-home little clip on lights, what are you after?

Depends what they got? Im guessing they are the Chinese Cree lights?? I dont think ive seen lidl do the moon nebula knock offs.

Got me a set of glasses and a saddle bag kit. Alas no lights nor did they have any clothes in anything smaller than a large so didn’t even check out the quality. Oh well. Not bad for a couple of quid.

It was these, although they don't appear on their site. I can't remember the cost, maybe between £9.99 - £12.99.

Ahhh the Busch + Müller style clones. Ive seen them being sold a earlier in the year but i wasnt so keen on them. Maybe Im just spoiled by Aldi's bikemate lights.

Nothing of any interest for me this time around, but last time I did buy one of their windproof cycling jackets for £9.99 - the one with the detachable sleeves.

Really loving it, been wearing it mainly as a gilet, but being able to stuff the sleeves in a pocket and put them on once the temp drops has been just the ticket.

Downside, fit isn't the best - it's a tad too long in the body and the sleeves won't accommodate much more than a thin jersey or base layer under them. But for that price, I ain't arguing.

Are they the cob lights? If so, they'd nothing like that.

picked up 2 cycle helmets for the kids from lidls today, £9.99 each and they are pretty decent, also had a lot of hi5 bars and electrolyte tablets

Will nip in tomorrow and pick up a couple of pairs of gloves. I'm down to one pair at the moment

Im amazed at the snobbery towards lidls kit (not on here) that i read on other forums, people bemoaning that they would rather support there LBS for clothing etc, i'm of the opinion that lidls makes cycling affordable for many (especially me).

I was going to, but I have found 2 extra half pairs at home so I must have the other half pairs somewhere!

Yup Cob lights are great, especially the tail lights.

 

[Garry A]

Got a jersey and a pair of mitts. Jersey sleeves are still a bit short but the quality is ok......and only £6.99

 

[glasgowcyclist]

Damn, the top I bought is a full length zip.

 

[Elybazza61]

Pretty clearly full zip from the picture

I like pink cycling gear but ye gods that's hideous

 

[marshmella]

The jersey with the jangly coloured pattern has a short zip. They come up a bit small, I will have to return the one I bought.

My daughter was after that one in a 10/12 but only had 14/16 in our store
