Its cold outside so here is a 20% saving to ensure you have the best down Quilts and Hammocks to enjoy the winter!
Use code - FESTIVE20 at the checkout to save 20% store wide.
Starts Boxing Day and ends 02nd Jan 2017

Interesting to see he's using argon in some quilts and now doing a "ground dwellers" version. Not that I've had problems using my TQ on the deck. Also find his quilts very warm though that's very subjective (have used the summer one well into autumn / early winter).

Looks like it was just around the distribution centre that stocks St Helens area as they are still £139.99 (still cheap) in Liverpool who are supplied from over on the Wirral.

I use a custom Summer plus one all year round. They are great bits of kit.

I think this must be the first time the bargain thread has dropped on to page 2 - clearly nobody buying anything!

Anyway, 10spd HG95 (XT) chains for £11.36 in Halfords.

Saw something on FB for Cumulus for 10% using PROMO10 until 20 January 2017. Might only be for sleeping bags.

Crikey, how much have a sale on. Amongst other things the Brevet Bib Shorts are down to £100 from £180. You'll need to be an XS or a medium though. Luckily I am so just ordered a pair. These have a reputation for being super comfy over long distances so I've high hopes for them.

I had to return two pairs of the Brevet Bib shorts as the first pair wore through in about 500 miles, the second pair started bobbling after just 100 miles. They are super comfortable though...

I do wonder whether Crikey, how much should have their own thread ... announcing a Crikey, how much sale in Bargain Alert seems like a weird contradiction. :wink:

I did think twice about it... even reduced from £180 to £100 it's still a lot for a pair of shorts but... Johhnystorm says in his blog about his on the TD

"Crikey, how much Brevet Bib Shorts - So good I've bought another pair. Treat yourself, you're worth it. Literally saved my race"

With a recommendation like that I thought I'd chance it. I think £100 is about the right price for them. I couldn't justify spending the £180 they were originally but at the sale price they are comparable with other quality bibs?
