Saw these Jones Ti cut loops. Not sure if this will end in last minute silliness or be a bargain. End tomorrow.

Ex demo stooge over at Charlie's http://www.charliethebikemonger.com/sto ... 5227-p.asp £385

www.sportpursuit.com have some good deals at the moment. You need to register to see what's on sale but there are Yeti down jackets less than half price, if you're feeling flush USE carbon wheels are half price too plus loads of other stuff.

Overboard doing 30% off with a PROVIS30 on some dry bags / rucksacs / holdalls. Well made gear IMO but heavy duty and therefore a little weighty.

Dash4it doing 40% off some mapping stuff with AUG40

Primus ETA Express stove. £95 down to £45. Might be a bit big and heavy for most, but quite a saving. I like the built in windsheild

You can get a full set for £81 from Merlin at the moment...

7800mAh for under a tenner

I love the ratings on these things. Odds on that actually being anywhere near 7,800 mah are slim to none. :)

They're all the same though. Slippery sons of bitches.

Charlie has some silly cheap salsa warbirds. Bikes or frames.

I think frames are 550 inc carbon fork.

Rock and Run have got Rab Module top bags for £69. I know summer's drawing to a close but they make a good inner bag to bump up the rating of something else.

Crikey, are Rock and Run still going? I climbed with Andy and a lot with Rick in the 1980's. I think Rick does a bit of mountain biking these days.

I love my top bag. It's old but really toasty.

There's a lot of Icebreaker merino clothing on SportPursuit at the minute, 50% off. They were one of the first companies doing merino and out of all the merino clothing I've tried I've found their's to be nicest to wear and the longest lasting. And apparently it's all ethical, in regards to the sheep.

Damnit, I've never seen a cycling style top of theirs before (Strike), but it's only available in tiny and monster size. :(

I'm not convinced by 'cycling style' garments, especially in the current bike boom when it seems most clothing companies make an ordinary outdoors garment 'cycling style' simply by hoiking the price by 50% and making the colours disgusting. Maybe if you insist on rear pockets, there's sense to it, but back pockets don't work with natural fibres like merino.

Uhh... none of that. I wanted a half zip (with neck protection), collar and short sleeves. I've literally never seen one of that style in merino.

Howies have/had something like that

Ground Effect also do some good cycling specific merino gear, the socks are very good-

Cheers.

These cable sets seem far too cheap.

Coloured stuff only mind you.

I've used a few sets of these, perfectly ok, you don't want to be paying as much as £8.49 a set though! The gear outers aren't long enough to do an unbroken run on a 2/3x set up.

I have stops on my frame so that shouldn't be a problem...it's the full length rear brake outer on a big frame I was worried about.

You can get them cheaper?
