Sport pursuit are doing an evoc sale just now.
https://www.sportpursuit.com/sales/evoc-dec18

Of particular interest to the jetsetting plus and fatbike owners out there, they are doing the evoc XL bike bag for £240 which makes it expensive rather than eye watering. That said, if you wait until March I will likely have a one use one for sale.....

They have been for quite a few weeks since the UK distributor went to another..... FYI, stuff is cheaper over on their old distro. site.

SP are also selling American Classic Wide Lightning 29er wheels for £319. Only in 142 rear, though I'm sure they can be adapted to suit other standards

Alpkit Phantac Down Hooded Jackets in Black. £145 in store at Haversage.

The current ones are in sale on web for £199 from £229.

However if you buy last years phantac jacket in black they have a big long rack upstairs where the tents, are for £145! However they appear to be mainly small ones, I think there were some larger sizes but not many.

I think there were also some gilets and some women versions too.

Bought myself one, very pleased.

Saw this on another forum. Thanks to OP. Pic in advert shows orange, but description says green. Best price I have seen for the Trailstar clone.

Shamelessly pinched from a post on STW: Exposure Lights from Millets ebay shop, discounted prices less additional 15% discount on checkout plus extra 10% with PINCHMR code/voucher.

Just as a bit of a heads up it looks as though millet’s outdoor have a discount of 15% off £60 at the moment when added to basket on ebay. This used with a discount code of 10% PINCHME code makes the prices pretty good. Example strada 900 works out about £123:

Just ordered myself a maxx d for just over £200.
Hopefully of use to someone.

I have never paid more than £14 a pair for these, and I’ve got or had 7 pairs. I have never seen anyone selling them at £23...

They're not half price, they're half list price. That doesn't mean Wiggle and CRC ever sold them for £23, all it means is that £23 is the recommend price (RRP) from the supplier. It makes people think they're getting a bargain even if they're not.

May not actually belong on this thread but hey ... 2019 Bear Bones calendars are now £8.50 delivered. I really don't want to be stuck with any as it seems such a waste.

Maybe bring them down to the winter event. Might be an easier sell in the flesh so to speak. You could also bundle them with the coffee and toast...

Already packed :wink: Can't bundle them up as food / drink and goodies are included in the entry fee.
