It looks like you can get some cash back via Top Cash Back but as far as I can see they don't do BC discount.

A 10% code would be very handy!

Did you do the Red Bull Million MIle Commmute? They had a discount code that gave 15% off. Let me see if I can find it.

Did anyone actually find a bargain through the Strava Le Col voucher.
I thought it was a £50 voucher, but it`s a discount if you spend £100.

And they have nowt in stock except mega expensive stuff, unless someone knows different.?

Nope.

The only jersey's I liked were out of stock or not included in the offer. Some of the jersey's were quite expensive to start with too, £75 after the £50 discount. I know you pay for quality, but I've never spent more than about £50 on a jersey (castelli, sportful, morvelo etc) apart from my long sleeve gabba.

They do BC/Cycling UK 10% if you ask (they gave me a temporary code a while ago) but only on full price stuff so not great. That was online though so maybe in store they apply it more broadly?

From Red Bull Commute:
As a final reward, here is a discount code from our friends at Chapeau:
20% off at Chapeau
Code: CHAPEAUWINGS18

Codes valid until 11.59pm on 31st August. Valid on ALL items. Codes can be used once per customer.

Remember, you also have until the end of August to use the previous reward codes sent:
15%* off at Runners Need 
CODE: RUNNERSNEEDMMC

15%** off at Cycle Surgery 
CODE: CYCLESURGERYMMC
20%*** off at Stance CODE: STANCEXREDBULL20

Cheers all. Looks like the Cycle Surgery codes are only valid against full price items sadly.

I got one of the pro jerseys. £60 after the discount, which now I've received the jersey is a great price. It's a lovely jersey, very very comfortable, quality material and a great fit. Well pleased with it.

I applied it to the Colnago Owner's Dar, rrp £150 so got it for £100.

Includes the Le Col Colnago Pro Jersey (rrp £120), 50 mile sportive, champagne lunch, Q&A with Wiggins - who is also riding the sportive a 3x copies of cyclist.

I was planning on doing the ride anyway so it's worked out well for me.

Seems great value, I'd be scared of being scoffed at for not being on a colnago though.

How times have changed. When I started cycling again my preferred top was an Aston Villa goalkeeper's jersey in away colours. Didn't even support them. :roll:

I've not been before, this is the second year it's run but afaik there is no requirement to ride a Colnago merely an appreciation for the brand.

There's no denying the day is entirely geared up for Colnago but I wouldnt expect any snobbery.

Looking for CX wheels to replace my dog crap Vision team 30 disc wheels on the planet x.

Anyone seen a good buy. 6 bolt disc pref, or 160mm rotors if fitted.

Only 10%, half what it has been before, plus it ends earlier at 2000. But potentially, better than a kick in the teeth.;)

Not looked at much else in the PBK "summer sale" but https://www.probikekit.co.uk/cycling-po ... 73319.html £280 is a bargain.

https://www.probikekit.co.uk/bicycle-co ... 77347.html looks interesting for £150, offline maps and re-routing on these newer, larger display models.

Nice timing NO, just ordered a few fixie bits.

Dammit that 4iii PM is tempting :?

https://www.halfords.com/cycling/bikes/ ... 5cm-frames £350 before BC discount

Just the 55.5cm seat tube frames left and it looks like you have to visit a stock with stock as EOL, which if this has the same geometry as the Boardman CX Team, will fit riders who are ~5'10".

It might only be 34/50 chainring with Claris 8-speed 11-28, but for £315 with BC discount, could make a cracking commuter and/or winter bike.

Assos Uno jersey for £15 if you can fit into an XS. Sizing says 90cm chest, I’m not normally an XS but for 15 quid I’ve had a punt anyway. Will surely get more than that back on eBay if it doesn’t fit.

Nice spot, have managed to resist though!
Said there were free delivery options, but unable to find them, must be a minimum order amount to trigger it.
Is this what used to be the assos outlet store?

Probikekit customer services are the pits. And totally ignore consumer law.

Asda Living here have some SBS fitness gadgets reduced. I passed on the smart skipping rope, and the wireless dumbbells but they had BLE speed/cadence sensors reduced to £5.50.
Phone recognises it in nrf connect as a bike cadence sensor, and so does IPBike so I guess it works with anything that supports BLE.

According to HUKD they've been this price for a while, but I've never seen them before.

Does anyone know if it is actually possible to get cashback on purchases from Evans after using the British Cycling 10% code? Topcashback/Quidco are offering extra 5% off at the moment.

Both sites say cashback won't be offered when a voucher code is used that isn't on their respective site but I'm wondering whether it actually works in practice.

Few good looking deals in there, such as 52/39 105 chainset for ~£62.

Some pretty bargainous LG gear on Evans at the mo -the Jackets seem to get little love, but if you are investing for the colder seasons ahead, they have various warmers at large reductions - don't forget BC discount as well.

I have some of their winter padded gloves. I don't often wear gloves, except when it's really cold, but they seem pretty good.

One of the cats loves them too and I often find one of them on the bedroom floor when I know i left them by the front door...

Cheers for the heads up, i've just grabbed a pair. The aldi ones from last year have survived 1 season, i don't think they'll survive another, so some "good quality" ones in the bag gives me a little extra comfort.

Was it the Rafale or the super prestige ones you went for? Be interested to hear what you make of them.

Um
Umm, 4 pairs. Rafale 2, Super Prestige, Ex Pro Gel, and Proof.

daniel_b

I like your style!

Is that with a mind to find the best pair, or pair of pairs, and return tuther ones for a refund?
