Anyone else get sucked in?

I just succumbed to the allure of a new 'THE T2 Carbon helmet' at an insanely good 83 quid! 😀
230 quid SRP...

Blummin temptation! Well, my old one was getting manky and the foam inner had actually detached from the shell a bit which is reason enough to justify it I feel... 🙂

Look at my shiny helmet...

Also snapped up two pairs of Troy Lee xc gloves, about a tenner each pair!

Schweet!

Slightly annoying for me when I bought the T2 Carbon 4 weeks ago for £107!

On the few bits I want they are not the cheap price thats shown, really pisses me off when Chainreaction do this. If you're going to have a sale at least have the prices the same through out the range of sizes 👿

My experience is similar to Kuco's. Terrible way of searching for stuff too. I gave up after a few minutes.

I find CRC have so much choice, I lose interest searching for stuff esp clothes. Tend to by all my cycling clothing from Wiggle, which has a more manageable selection.

Improvement? probably not.
Vastly better looking than one of the ugliest helmets ever made? certainly.

Do I remember someone saying CRC does free returns now? Does that apply to sale items? I can't see it anywhere obvious on the site.

Meh.

I got sucked in for the Urge Downomatic & several pairs of gloves. I'm rough with gloves, they never last long but 5 pairs for £30? Winner!

got to the sort box and sort by biggest discount- that way madness lies. No Fear glasses 85% off, so 8 quid rather than 50...hmmm

So I neede a 2 quid crank tool and maybe Singletrack magazine. Though the postie will also bring a full face helmet gloves knee and elbow pads should enroll in the local enduro competition now I guess.

Just boring running stuff for me. Got a pair of Asics Kayano for £55, my old ones haven't worn out yet but at that price I couldn't say no. Ordered a pair of Brooks Trance as well to try out.

Ooh, No Fear goggles with a rolloff system fitted for £13... I was getting intense rolloff envy last time I was at fort william. Purchased!

Oh and some socks. One can never have enough socks.

Saved close to £110 just buying a helmet and a pair of Shimano SPD shoes that I don't need either.

I am sure I will [s]wait till my old ones wear out before wearing them[/s] throw my old ones in the shed and forget about them

So who actually got their stuff and who got their orders cancelled?

I'm the happy new owner of a nice pair of Dakine Pace shorts (£28), another very nice pair of Royal Turbulence shorts (£35), some Defeet socks and a Sombrio merino road jersey (£32).

Mildly disappointed my £15 Fox Attack jersey was out of stock, but I'll get over it.

🙂

What a mess after two days a mail to cancell gloves today a mail to cancell helmet and another item still in stock.

Offered 5£ yeah but alternatives have sold out or have more or less doubled in price a lot more then this so no use.

Cool also to have leg and arm protectors but no helmet anmore.

Big disappointment in service this time round

Yup - got all the stuff I ordered. £225 worth for £80! I was especially surprised to actually receive the 2013 Turbulence shorts at 65% off - not complaining though 🙂

Big Pete - I bought the black girly one too! If you get some black heli tape, you can cover the balloon decals, and you have a lovely black stealth enduro matic.

I got a Gravity Dropper magnet with a whopping £3.00 discount. 🙂
The trainers I didn't get had a £70.00 discount. 🙁

In fairness to CRC they have given me a £5.00 discount voucher, so I got the part I needed for free.

Take a pic of you in your full Doddy Wardrobe regalia and post on this thread Iain.

Doddy's been rocking the blue and yellow a lot lately, hope you've kept it on-trend.
