not sure 20% off Crikey, how much quite meets the criteria to be called a barguain

Sorry, it should go under the 'goods that are expensive, but have a high discount that leave the goods still being expensive' thread

Years ago I went to a Crikey, how much sale in London and for £20 each got a merino jersey two seasons old which is still fantastic and some 3/4 that were seconds. They are now looking ropey but considering getting a new set at £180 less 20%. It is a lot but they are easily the best 3/4 I have owned and lasted despite having marks and poor stitching when I bought them. .

2 offers, noticed rock + run have a few good offers on sleeping bags

And the second doesn't mean much at the moment (to me!), Amazon prime day is on Wednesday 15th, apparently it's like black Friday

There's £15 quid off the on-one Knuckleball carbon handlebars for the next 7 hours... http://www.on-one.co.uk/deals

Planet Fear shop in Keswick is closing down and they have 30% off everything including sale prices. Of most interest here is probably OMM sleeping bags - Mummery and 'pied d'elepant' type. Also a RAB Ascent 700 at half price.

The Outdoor Shop have some good offers on clothing at the moment with some stuff 50% off ... could be a good time to prepare for winter and get that new down jacket or waterproof?

I had to send some back. The front was just long enough for a 100mm 29er. No chance of the rear hose being long enough.

Thanks for the heads up. I spent £140 at about 12:30 last night!

Quite excited about the berghaus hyper smock 2 though... Under 100g and fully waterproof

Verenti fat bike at Wiggle reduced to £350. There's a few bits you'll probably want to change like the 42t chainring but it's the only 'cheap' fat bike I've seen that looks worthy of upgrading - Reynolds frame too, although I can't imagine that'll be every tube

Could you actually upgrade it enough to bring it down from the quoted 19.4kg? I did actually look at this bike a while back as my wallet was twitching and I've been intrigued by fat bikes for a while, but the fact it's 5kg+ on almost every other bike I've looked at was putting me off.

You could shave quite a bit of weight off without going mad - the standard tyres are 2kg each and I imagine the standard tubes will be 800g an end. It'll never be as light as some others but that will largely be down to the steel frame / forks. No reason why it should weigh more than a Pugsley though.

usual on-one/planet X cheapness just now, but the coloured fatbike tyres are down to £30 again http://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/TYOOFLOAT/ ... lding-tyre
