Re: Bargain Alert Thread
There might be some question if that's the same stuff as tubeless sealant?
I don't know the answer though!

Re: Bargain Alert Thread
I had a load of grief with Muc Off sealant. Kept losing the seal on the rims in the wet. Same thing happened to another couple of people I know up here. Might just have been a bad batch but my LBS have stopped selling it and I deffo wouldn't buy it again.BigdummySteve wrote: ↑Wed Apr 28, 2021 12:14 pm Muc off sealant in 300mm sized bottles for £6.99 in Aldi, I brought two![]()
Hope you have better luck obvs.

Re: Bargain Alert Thread
Got a 25% discount code from strava - KUDOS25, predictably - and it applies to all muc off stuff on their site, including the already discounted tubeless stuff. 25 quid and above is post free.
Edit - I used a mates muc off BAM canister of compressed air and sealant on a long ride last year and it fixed a hole that wouldn't previously seal and saved my ride. Normally v pricey, but works out at 12 quid for 2 on the above deal. Bit bulky, but I'll defo be carrying one on long and multi day off road rides from now on.

Re: Bargain Alert Thread
Yeah I got some of this based on a really good bike radar review. Its rubbish. But I then got some squirt seal which is too thin so I mixed the two together to get a sealant which is as good as stans.In Reverse wrote: ↑Wed Apr 28, 2021 9:56 pmI had a load of grief with Muc Off sealant.

Re: Bargain Alert Thread
It's usually items made to take around dealers so they know what to order for the coming season. There might be some differences to the final, production items. I've a few Gore samples from a previous job - usually obtained by sweet-talking the sales rep.Richard G wrote: ↑Fri Apr 30, 2021 2:46 pmWhat does "sample" mean in this regard?

Re: Bargain Alert Thread
Blimey that certainly is a bargain, nice one. Yellow not known for its stealth BBB qualities though
. V interesting in light of JC's tarps/bbags thread though.

Re: Bargain Alert Thread
Thanks for that! I almost pulled the trigger without using the code. Nice bonus discount at the checkout. I grabbed one and a RAB silk liner, also at half price. FYI the code only works with the Q25 version, possibly the radioactive-urine-yellow one too.
I also spotted there’s a bunch of savings on Exped mats, best I could find was 15% off, in stock and free delivery.

Re: Bargain Alert Thread
Hope it turns out to not be too restrictive - as mentioned when I posted elsewhere, it does look more tapered than my older version. Only a problem if you want to to sleep with your legs spread I guess.

I'm pretty sure you won't / can't fit an air mat inside the Rab Alpine.

Thanks for the heads up. One new pair of tyres for when the old ones wear out! I didn’t fancy paying the full prices mentioned in a post a while back.wriggles wrote: ↑Sat May 08, 2021 9:52 am WTB 27.5 x 3 plus tyres silly cheap on CRC
