The DealCatcher's back with more autumnal cycling deals, you know, because it's autumn now.
There's no use denying it, the weather's getting worse, so our wardrobes are beginning to rotate towards long sleeved jerseys, jackets, and leg warmers.
Our choices of bike are changing too. Out come the mudguards and disc brakes.
It might seem doomy and gloomy for a few of you, but plenty of us love riding in the autumn, and the DealCatcher's here to convert a few more of you too; all it takes is the right gear and you'll be loving the fresh mornings!
Today's DealCatcher features of few items that'll help you make the most out of the coming months.
Evans Cycles
As we state in our adventure bike buyer's guide - which you can read below - if you want to ride just about anywhere or on any surface, adventure bikes are for you.
British brand Genesis has been doing adventure bikes since before we used the word adventure bikes to describe them, so its bargain CdA adventure bike has decades of experience in the field distilled into every spoke and tube.
The CdA brings great CX features - like large clearances for mudguards, disc brakes, and a lightweight and adaptable frame - to a bike with a long, low, and comfortable wheelbase, to give the bike an endurance feel.
You'll feel like you've got the license to ride anywhere with one of these below you.

Altura's Raceline Jacket is a great jacket. We know, we reviewed it, and our man Stu Kerton said it was well made but that it struggled to justify it's hefty £120 price tag.
That's no longer an issue. This incredible 70% discount brings this high quality jacket into the budjet jacket market where it blows the competition out of the water.
£35 is a complete bargain.
Chain Reaction Cycles
Finally, it's going to be pretty dark for your evening commutes in about a month's time when the clocks go back.
Are you going to be ready?
With a light like Lezyne's Deca Drive you'll have no worries whether you're cycling through a city or riding on dark country lanes.
Even those of us in North London, who rarely have cause to go sarf of the river, will mourn the loss of Brixton Cycles.
So what you're saying is the "baseline" would move from "lit up like a Christmas tree" to "like a chameleon at a rave" * ... and it would have...
Thank you for asking Aidan, much appreciated....
A sad case, and one with no winners. The driver can thank her lucky stars that the cyclist wasn't more seriously injured and that the court was...
And I liked endura too. Got a nice long sleeve mostly merino long sleeve a little while back, in orange.
No, the Ebay lights have been around for several years, this Lezyne light just appeared.
They shouldn't worry - the second part of the "tariff" refrain is "they can make it in US and they'll do very well".
"At the going down of the sun, it will get in our eyes and cause us to crash into things."
Indeed - but again these are perhaps questions we should keep asking. Even if the immediate answer is "well we are where we are" or "how on earth...
