Bought a pair of these for site visits. With postage about £22. Colour's better (darker) than the pictures.

I think they're the ones I've had for a couple of years. They're pretty lightweight, which is fine, but I find them a bit baggy. Pretty happy with them though. Can't remember what I paid for them, but it was definitely more than £19 - bargain at that price.

A bargain on one big dog if that's your thing. £1500 with axs and pike fork https://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/CBOOBDGXA ... teid=54264

Blimey those are a good deal. Premium gear obviously, so pricey normally but have got a variety of them. Sadly can't justify another one!

The Sealskins Halo overshoes on SP for £12.50 are pretty good too (though removing the rear blinking LED helps)

Size small only, sadly.

I found mediums in the non-neoprene for a good price

I've used these for years - no zips to break and work remarkably well.

SPatz have got a 1/3 off but probably dont quite hit the bargain aspect of this thread and much more roadie than bikepacking

Only had mine [gravel ones] about a month but they are considerably warmer than anything else i have owned - walking wise they seem just about ok[ toe and hook and loop are under my grips so not touching ] but i would not want to walk long distances in them but ok for gates etc and waterproof and warm as can be [ seem to be getting warmer hands and colder feet as i age for some reason]

Alright, it’s Amazon but bar bag for £26 instead of £75/80ish

More traditional touring but may well work on my drop bars

Much similar (though not price wise ) to the Ortlieb Ultimate Six ... brilliant bag for day rides !

Noticed these... Rechargeable lithium AA batteries, can be recharged by a power bank perhaps on longer rides?

They're like the DFS of cycling. Does anyone ever pay full price?

^ I didnt pay full price for mine, but quite a bit more than £999! Great bike though imo

Showa Temres 281 gloves. £8 per pair for two pairs, down from £10.50 each. OK, so you could probably get 10 pairs from Aldi for that, but these have been utterly invincible, waterproof and breathable, in all bikepacking weathers over 2 years now. Bought extras for the "kids" and will await their reaction with, er, interest.

I second that recommendation - have worn these through some seriously bad weather and come out the other side with miraculously dry hands. Don't own any other gloves that come close to that performance. Even the XL size are not really that big however, if you want to wear a glove underneath them.

My Dad was a commercial inshore fisherman, these look exactly like what we used for working at sea. Not much in the way of dexterity if they are the same thing.
