Guys, can someone remind me what the very cheap and very excellent cycling glasses several people recommended a couple of months ago were?

Also have a look at your local Lidl's as they still have some of theirs in my local and you can go wrong for under £4 with 4 different lenses.

Can post a picture of them if you want?

Sidi Genius 5 shoes :roll:

I needed them alright

gabriel959

Quite a few bits:

From Planet X
Zipp Contour Carbon Handlebar 440mm 26.0mm Clamp

and
Zipp SL145 Stem 120mm 26.0 clamp


Full carbon bling for a 100 notes was a no-brainer - and on my size (yes thank you!)

Some stuff from Wiggle

2 pairs of DeFeet Wooleator socks
1 tub of Torq Natural Energy Powder
and some Nikwax Techwash [/i]

Oddjob62

Just won a Holdsworth Criterium on ebay to be used as my pub/spare bike.

deffler

Gore Phantom II in Grey Spear / Black £72.99

A faux Buff from blacks.



I was going to get a wool buff but I thought I'd try a cheapo normal one for a couple of weeks first. Besides, you can't have too much headgear

Got 2 sets of these, great for the money, light, comfortable and it doesn't matter if you lose/break them.

Bought the Lidl shades last year and only scratched the dark and clear. Bought them again a few weeks back and only used the clear so far. For £3 they are OK for the commute and OK to wear in work.

Me to. However mine went straight onto back order as they have no stock and are waiting for new stock to arrive. :evil: Not a happy bunny at all! :evil: Whats the point in saying you have plenty in stock when you don't :?
On the plus side at least I've got it ordered now at the reduced price

Oh I got the Smart front and back light combo for £13 ( reduced fro £30) to go on't commuter for a second set of lights

That Garmin kit is cheaper anyway from ProBikeKit with the XMAS code - although the only have the Small left in there.

gabriel959

True, it doesn’t come with the awful Team “Argyle” Garmin jersey though

When I get mine next year it will be from Handtec 8)

MadammeMarie

Very warm indeed! A bit pricey, but worth it. Besides, I got the LCC discount!

Helly Hansen Women's Freeze 1/2 Zip. Very recommended!

The Handtec 705 only comes with the bog standard mapping built in. The wiggle road package comes with the euro road map sd. Oh and a crappy argyle jersey which has just arrived and is cool as .........

iPete

M076 shoes & Shimano double sided SPD pedals, my first clip less system, fantastic, just need to spend ages working out how to adjust the cleats!

Oh and another Icebreaker base layer and dhb full length bib tights 8)

Think I might be done buying stuff.... :roll:

daniel_b

Wiggle winter kit set thingy......





Plus a runcton LS jersey with removable arms:



All in came to less than a Gore Phantom with £20 off!
