Looks like MTB Riders has gone now, but have fulfilled all their orders. Looking back at their countdown clock on the sale feels rather bleak.
Tried to order on MTBRIDERS site Friday - hopeless. Chat messaged them - they never replied.

I might be inclined to cut them some slack.

It's the same price in Currys and they are offering a £75 bonus on any trade in. Even a rubbish phone comes in at £1 so £76 off, as long as it is working.

Yep, just checked - I could get £70 tradein for my 3a on Google Store. (or £90 @ Currys)
Gravel dropper post just arrived.
All the best for Greg in his future ventures.
SportPursuit have Giro Rincon shoes for £65. I have a pair for road riding and they are great.
spd-road, gravel, or racey mtb
Black, grey and greenish (but not at the same time)
Not a discount, but maybe useful for some to know. Asda bike accessories are now supplied by Decathlon. Inner tubes, sealant, lube, cleaners, lights, bits and bobs and fair prices. Gravelly sized tubes £3.99 etc
Orange clearing out some stuff, mostly not amazing but I ordered myself one of these:
https://www.orangebikes.com/shop/sale/bike_components/ethirteen_helix_r_cassette_9_50t_12spd
I got a slightly different helix cassette during lockdown when everything else was out of stock, with pretty low expectations but it's been really excellent. Awkward fitting but otherwise a really good cassette. Nobody ever bought one at RRP but this is a good price I think

Decent. I bought a pair last week but involved buying separates from Merlin and CRC then the faff of swapping over hoses as they were both euro-style, so this is a great deal.

That is a really good one, calipers alone sell for £50 each normally.
house of fraser has outlet20 code and it works on some 510s and many other brands,
Thanks for that - Trailcross XTs for £38 posted.

Same price also gets you Guide REs from Tredz (buying separately, oddly a set is more expensive). Choose you're preferred lever feel and win at life. I've just gone from Deores to the REs - both are great, although you could tell the REs have been on a shelf for a while (needed a quick bit of dot fluid round the pistons, now feel amazing).
Or with Manitou forks and a hydro brake for £199.
Those Mongi are outrageous tbf. You can't even buy the MRP chain device for that price.

How are the trailcross as normal everyday non biking shoes?
I used my trailcross for a week travelling a fortnight ago. I only had owned them a few days beforehand so minimal breaking in period, but I must have walked about 10 miles per day in them for a week, and wore them at least 15 hours per day and couldn't find any faults.
I hear that they aren't very waterproof (fortunately I haven't had to test that yet) but I sprayed them with water repellent spray and that shakes off a brief wave under a tap. They are nice and breathable though for those of us that get hot feet.
I was walking around St Mortitz and Alp Grum one day with a thin layer of snow and ice and was completely fine.
I wouldn't recommend them for driving however - they are super sticky and so do stick on the pedals a bit.
How are the trailcross as normal everyday non biking shoes?
I bought them as a commuter shoe I could wear to the office, don't find them that comfortably. Old 5:10 are way nicer to wear all day but don't look as smart. They feel like the old Shimano commuter / leisure shoes. Also a narrow enough fit so I had to size up.
Another Planet X 'one day' offer.....
Ti frame ✔️SRAM AXS✔️RS pike ✔️dropper✔️
All for £1499 seems an absolute bargain to me....
Cheers for the 510 Freerider link. I've fancied trying a pair of 510's for a while, but have hung onto my flat soled Shimano shoes as they're not quite dead yet. £30 for a new pair of 510's delivered to the door is a brilliant deal in my mind. This thread is a goldmine of bargains and good deals. Although it's costing me a small fortune, I'm absolutely loving it. Keep up the good work!
aaaaaaand that's me missed out on one of those... Dammit!
That on-one pricing is mental. Almost in “buy a gx axs groupset and get the rest of a decently specced bike AND titanium frame for free…” territory. Looks like large is out of stock but the rest are there.
The NS chromo frame is down to £120, please buy them so I'm not tempted to buy another:
NS frame is £99.99 for me.
... +£20 postage
Aha, cheeky CRC adding that.
How are people doing with their Evans 5.10 orders?
I ordered some Kestrel boas on 22 Jan, had confirmation then nothing since. Contacted them today by messenger, they quickly responded but just cancelled the order and gave me a £10 voucher. Would rather have some bargain shoes.
I wonder how many failed orders I can try until I find something in stock and get them free?
Try to Kestrel lace-up version, they arrived quickly here
Try house of Fraser anyway.
My Trailcross XT's were ordered from there yesterday and turned up this morning.
Try to Kestrel lace-up version, they arrived quickly here
Done this from Evans as with my £10 voucher they cost £16!! (plus delivery, plus as I was going to pay fifty something for the boas I ordered a £25 Endura Burner LS jersey too - oh well)
Fingers crossed something turns up this time
@40mpg....what size are you? We have some 42.5 so uk 8.5 that dont fit here.
Just incase they work fornyou before we return them
i ordered a pair of 510 Sleuth on house of fraser yesterday morning 7am, with 20% off and £4.99 delivery they cost me £31.39 total , received them at midday today, perfect ..
HUKD also give me a £5 amazon voucher for listing those trailcross :0)
five ten kestral lace SPD shoes (khaki green) down to £20.80 plus £4.99 on house of fraser outlet20 code
Bugger, ordered that ns frame from crc then an hour later read the news crc are done. Worth cancelling the order now or wait and see?
It's on credit card so not too concerned
According to cycling news there are a handful of staff being kept on to clear out the warehouse. Looks like they'll still be processing orders, but who knows
pay on credit card.. £125.99 for a diablo mk3 with remote control and all the mounting options seems a great price..
https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/p/exposure-diablo-sync-mk3-front-light-pack
that diablo light dropped to £70 but is now sold out
firesale has started on endura and a few other brands at wiggle / crc
ensure you use paypal or spend £100 on a creditcard under section 75, for security
Just been trawling wiggle. Some good prices on Cateye lights if you need a commuting light. Also Found one bargain priced POC helmet in M/L, there's lots in XS.
Ordered this morning and just dispatched from crc. Might have napped an Diablo for £70 😄. Was going to send off my old Diablo to have the battery replaced but for not much more on crc I got another with all the extras!

Phew, just order a £37 pair from Evans.. then saw this... sizes up to 8 only on HofF though 🙂
(I'm guessing from the brands stocked that House of Frazer are under the same ownership as Sports Direct/Evans etc... )

Buffalo Saleat Wiggle with limited stock and sizes but cracking prices
Bloody hell. Still expensiver than mine was at full price.
Use code SAVE at wiggle and get £15 off purchases £75+
Which makes the Buffalo gear even cheaper, good selection of Buffalo kit for women
1/2 price basic edbikes at Wiggle.
Of course they were never 2 1/2k, and previous searches for them show an rrp of 999.
But if you want something to try it out, or something as a commuter or pub bike, then seems to be a good deal.

Endura MT500 jacket (the new one) is going for £90 on CRC with the code EXTRA10
limited sizes/ colours but great price.

anyone buying on house of Fraser, theirs a five ten jacket windbreaker in a light crimson (pink) colour
down to £21, black one is £85 on Adidas direct, so I gave it a try ,
That 5 10 jacket. Don't forget the "OUTLET20" code for extra 20%, takes care of postage.
CRC have some great deals on Fizik saddles. Worth checking to see if they have your fav.
£140- £36

Scrub that , I've had an attack of common sense and cancelled my order, got to stop buying things I don't need just because they are cheap 🙄
got to stop buying things I don’t need just because they are cheap
😆 How many of us have a stock of a variety of bits and pieces that we didn’t need but they were cheap on CRC/Wiggle?
🙋♂️
It’s payday on Wednesday……must resist one last order (if they are still trading) of things I don’t need but, you know, I might need in the future, and it’s cheap.
Stuff like shorts and jerseys are always worth buying if they're cheap. They'll either sit in a cupboard somewhere and get used eventually or, get added into the rotation of other clothes which means spreading the wear and tear meaning stuff last longer.
The TLD Ruckus shorts are excellent. Really well vented for summer.
bens I've rejigged my order deleted parts , Ruckus for under £30 , photo shows a liner but description doesn't mention it so assume not 🤔 Also a Skyline Chill jersey under £30 already got one excellent bit of kit 👍
😆 How many of us have a stock of a variety of bits and pieces that we didn’t need but they were cheap on CRC/Wiggle?
I needed those 4x 10 speed cassettes.....honest
How many of us have a stock of a variety of bits and pieces that we didn’t need but they were cheap on CRC/Wiggle?
I may have ordered one last cheap 11-48t 10speed microshift cassette off of Wiggle before they finally shut up shop, I already have other spare 10 speed cassettes. I guess I'm now committed to using 10 Speed.
i was in gooutdoors (peterborough) today, and they had 3 racks of sale stuff, some Fox Ranger jackets(£75), trousers and shirts with good reductions. Maybe a branch near you is worth checking out

Wiggle/CRC Hope pro5 rear wheels are down to £216, from £296, for a very fair 80 quid off.
I think the ones without the liner are listed as 'shell'.
I bought some from Leisure Lakes (or possibly Merlin) for similar money and they came with the liner and an RRP tag showing £100 more that they cost me. The chamois needs a bit of breaking in but they're pretty comfy after a ride or 2.
