The glasses have had good feedback here, got myself a clear pair for the winter and found them excellent apart from the logo right at the edge of my vision.I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.0 -

The thread is surely supposed to be about alerting your fellow forumers to bargains they may also partake in, not gloat over something that only you can take pleasure from!

Italian. For the very slim athlete I imagin0 -
Verging on the latter: euro sizing. So, probably go for a size bigger than normal. The size guides on wiggle and PBK work for me.kelsen wrote:JonGinge wrote:PBK sale of Castelli kit:

All Netto stores are changing to ASDA and selling off stuff. I picked up a Fila polo shirt for £1.50.I used to just ride my bike to work but now I find myself going out looking for bigger and bigger hills.0

Big thanks for the heads up, got the Yellow jersey, bit damp with slight mark from the tag but for £15 a bargain.0 -

www.mandmdirect.com tend to have some dare2b stuff very cheap quite often.0 -
I've had a couple of the Dare2B things, don't rate them. The merino tops I got were sized too large (mediums more like X Large), the cycling top is far too long, more like a cycling mini-skirt, the MTB shorts are OK but have only got a weedy popper to keep them done up so pop open at inopertune times. No belt loops so can't do anythign to help, apart from loose another 5kg
Not worth the money IMO, rather spend it at Planet X or in one of the sales...FCN3: Titanium Qoroz.0 -

I bought a pair of baggy shorts from D2B and they're fine, they have belt loops. They got a bad review on this site because the inner lycra short is quite baggy but I don't really care as it's under the overshorts anyway... They only cost £15 in the sale a few months backDo not write below this line. Office use only.0 -

If my experience with cheap CREE torches is anything to go by, don't bother. I bought 2 Tesco CREE torches a couple of years ago and within a week or 2, both had developed bad contacts internally (I assume from the jarring and bumping from the road) and had more or less stopped working. I bought a Fenix for 50 smackers and have never had any probs with it. Having said that, these supposedly have a 3 year guarantee so may be worth the punt....Do not write below this line.

Treated myself to one of these:

A 2-24NM torque wrench for £23!
Just goes to show: you pay a premium on everything as soon as the words 'bike' or 'cycling' are added to the description.
I'll let you know if it's any good when it arrives.0 -

And with PROCYCLING10 it would have been £87.74. Bugger.0 -
Might be worth a shot contacting PBK. Worst case, you pay what you do now. Best case, they give you the 10% discount 0

Actually I've already sent PBK a pathetic email requesting a retroactive discount.0
