Looks like a bargain but how do you get £36 with free delivery - I'm seeing £37.92 plus postage?

I've just gone through the process (you are a bad bad person for posting this offer), and they did indeed charge for UK delivery.

Sorry. I though they were covered in the free delivery offer they had on.

My bad.

Free EU delivery if you spend 150 Euros.

I have the SafeRide and it's a cracker - downside is that on high power, it's barely 2 hours run-time. Worth paying for delivery at that price or do a group buy to save postage.

(Other issue , like my cheapy MagicShine clone, it swamps the wireless signal on the Cateye computer. Assume that all powerful LED lamps do this).

Mmmm - I think the EMC regs would have something to say about that.

DrLex

Maybe, but in the dark, I can't see the computer without a head torch!

A little surprising, given the solid metal casing of the Philips, but then the cateye sensor runs a wee CR2032 battery.
As it is, I just miss out on cadence when commuting in dusk/dark and use Cyclemeter app for time, speed & distance logging.

My alloy cased RSP lights never interefered with wireless computer signals though the plastic cased Smart lights did.

No, it's because you're dying.

garmin gives silly heart rates as the strap isnt tight enough/too tight.

Also the non premium one reads high. Mine is always high (unless I have a heart condition). Generally sits 150 upwards but doesn't go over 200...which is about right for my max (give or take, at 26 y/o)

So when you say "you're dying", what you really mean is "you're dead to me".

I meant more in the sense of we're all going to die at some point. Inevitable fact of life.
But that works too.

I've had one of these for just over a year and it's been faultless. A bargain for that price.

Bargaining search request- If I wanted a decent commuter bike (£200-£300) budget probably a hybrid or fixie would I have a hope in hell of seeing a result?

Worried for my RB based on the amount of potholes I am encountering on London streets... needs protection and loving.

Nope, the Gary Fisher that came before it
(And certainly not selling the Condor for £200-£300)
