Didn't even know they did those!
Used to have something similar on my Triumph for winter commuting - made a huge difference!

A copies of The Year, Dave barters book about the year record are availble to pre-order - http://v-publishing.us9.list-manage1.co ... 47befdb69c
£16 posted rather than £20RRP. I'm sure there is a joke to be made about signed editions being cheaper than unsigned ones but I'll leave that for some one else to make!

Re: Bargain Alert Thread
Looks like the AX frame has been updated. Used to be classic cx/commuter/utility bike. Now looks like a proper cx race bike. Shame they moved away from the slightly lower and slacker geo they did on the first gen carbon ones. I've got one and its great.

Re: Bargain Alert Thread
I've had a few sets of Aldi merino base layers too. I've been using them for a couple of years now and they're still going strong. I love them. On the TCW last July I wore them for three days and smelt a lot better than my Helly Hansen man-made fibre ones after an afternoon.
They are quite thin, though. Sometime last year Aldi had a version, aimed at skiers, which were dearer (£20 rather than £15) but much thicker. These are my winter ones.

Re: Bargain Alert Thread
Just picked up a pair of rubber lights from Lidls, look like Knog clones.
Come in a 2 pack, one red, one white for 2.99
They're very bright, fit on my bike, seatpack, backpack and even make a decent head torch on the helmet, cracking buy for £3
