When is the best time of year to buy a new bike?

[Banjo]

If you are willing to accept that the 2015 models are allready available by buying a new 2014 model now most places will negotiate on price.

Leave it much longer and you may find only some sizes still available especially if you are of average height.(average size bikes are easier to sell than extreme small or large)

The short answer is do it now

Depends on what size you want. there's some deals to be had now on 2014 models, but nothing in XL frame size that suited me Went into a few lbs in Hull & had nothing in my size, & 2015 models would not be available till Feb/mar next year
If planet X have anything that floats your boat, subscribe to their emails. I was eyeing up one of their carbon road bikes & at £1400 it was a good buy, but then I got an email this week with said bike for £999, I couldn't buy it quick enough as they just had 1 in my size, but showing more in now (£400 to spend on other bike stuff now )

That's a deal, a steal, the sale of the feckin' century and you can have it on 0% interest drip feed too.
