The DealCatcher's back from a long weekend of cycling and deal scouting with some cycling deals that'll brighten up what must've been a touch first day back at work this week.
We start over at Chain Reaction Cycles where it appears to be wheel deal season. We've picked out one wheel deal in particular - the smooth rolling carbon Dura-Ace 9000 C35 clinchers which are experiencing a 27% discount. That translates to a £400 saving. Tasty.
Next up we're off to Evans Cycles where they're discounting their 2016 range of Cannondale bikes. The best deal over there right now is the Cannondale CAAD8 Sora 7 road bike that's had £100 sliced off of its asking price.
Finally, we've got a colourful trip to Hargroves Cycles in store for you guys. The deal merchants at Hargroves have got a delightful 36% discount on their Vredestein Fortezza tyres.
Chain Reaction Cycles - Promoted deal
First on the DealCatcher's hitlist for the day is Chain Reaction Cycles' Dura-Ace 9000 C35 wheelset.
These carbon clinchers offer a fantastic mid-aero, lightweight riding experience that are designed to deal with everything professional racers have to deal with.
So, expect to reap the benefits of Shimano's wind tunnel efforts that have borne their new BLADE technology, producing what they call an aerodynamically superior wheel.
The 35mm deep 20.8mm wide rim and alloy breaking surface should see you right in terms of braking and rigidity, alongside the aforementioned aerodynamic benefits.
Evans Cycles
We're into our fifth 2016 month now, so we're keeping our eyes firmly peeled here at road.cc for some sweet 2016 model bike deals.
This is one from Evans Cycles.
If a 14% discount doesn't seem like much to you we'd suggest you've been spoiled by the DealCatcher's exploits. But, a 14% discount here translate to a cool £100 saving.
You're not only saving money here, you're getting your hands on an excellent entry level race bike, that packs something of a surprising kick.
Cannondale's CAAD range have championed alloy for years, and in 2016 they've thankfully decided not to sing from a different hymn sheet.
The sporty frame is worthy of upgrades over time, so if you're looking to start out on a road cycling career, this is a fantastic place to start.
Hargroves Cycles
Finally, we've got some tyres to show you.
Now, we're sorry to say that we've lured you in with the promise of a festival of colours, but we're going to have to dissapoint you now.
The only colour that's still available at Hargroves is the red.
Now that that bombshell's gone off, let's remind you that we're not in the disappointment business here at road.cc.
If red's your colour, and even if it's not, these Vredestein's are well worth a look.
We've reviewed three seperate Vredestein tyres here at road.cc and each one of them has rolled away with a 9/10 score.
The Tricomp shouldn't be any different. And if you're after a pair of red, low rolling resistance, fast and competetive tyre, you really shouldn't look any further.
Your link didn't work for me, so here's one that does https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cly0w2xzzd4o
Neighbourhood: you can't change anything because we have a disabled resident! Also driving children to schools! People power!...
The drivers are also licensed so they obviously behave themselves as well.
But... the last is only not the case with drivers on normal roads because driving on the cycle path / footway / rolling a vehicle up there is seen...
If only!
I think you're missing an opportunity to pack even more tech into it - add accelerometers that can detect whether they're pedalling or stepping....
Thanks. I guess the question is "need". If the road is busy, it sounds like it is a desired route between places? In which case (given this an...
Don't know what you mean. I thought my suggestion was entirely practical.
...and a square of faux sheepskin for the back of your saddle.
I'd buy a motorbike fo rthat kind of money!
