Welcome to the road.cc Amazon Prime Day live blog (again)

Déjà vu? The cynical among you might say we've already had two Amazon Prime Days this year, and that having another two in October just three months later is yet another step in the quest to get you to hand your money over to the international retail giant. The cynical among you might also point out that Amazon Prime Days 3 and 4 are also conveniently spaced out in advance of next month's Black Friday consumerism-extravaganza, in the run up to Christmas and the New Year sales...

We say it before every one of these deals blogs and we'll say it again today — you don't have to buy anything, and you certainly don't have to buy from Amazon if you don't want to... but we wouldn't be doing our job if we didn't point out that some of the deals on cycling kit, tech and accessories you'll see over the next 48 hours may well be the cheapest prices you can get.

So, if you need something, were planning on buying something anyway, you might find Amazon Prime Day offers you your best deal. Alternatively you could just support your local bike shop instead (we won't grass you up to Bezos)...

To get the deals you'll need an Amazon Prime account, which you can usually get on a month-long trial, or for 99p for a week if you've already used your free month up. Just set a reminder in your phone to cancel it before you get billed the full whack (again, we won't tell Big Jeff if you don't). 

If you see any decent cycling-related deals, feel free to drop them in the comments after you've finished cursing Amazon and us for running this blog. 

We also have to mention that road.cc may earn a small commission from some of the deals on this page if you click on anything and buy it. We doubt it will be much, but every little helps.

Taking your training indoors? The Saris Fluid2 indoor trainer is now a ridiculous £74.64!
Saris Fluid2

We were pretty amazed that the dependable, road.cc-rated Saris Fluid2 was down to £82 yesterday, and now it's even less at £74.64! 

If you don't need a smart trainer or even just want a spare for pre-race car park warm-ups, you're not going to find better for less than this. It's not even a Prime Day deal, but is probably the biggest cycling bargain we've found on Amazon these past few days.

Gore thermowear bibs prime day

Gore kit usually gets close top marks whenever we review it on road.cc, and although 91 quid is still quite a lot of money, it's by far the best deal we can find on the high quality Thermo bib tights at the moment, at 24% off the RRP.

With a slim fit and Gore's Windstopper tech, you can stay warm yet still train hard and ride fast in these quality bib tights that should last you many winters.

It has nothing to do with whether one approves of it or not, you came in stating "Road.cc probably get ad or affiliate revenue from Amazon" as if they were doing something underhand when in fact they freely admit that they do in the text. Your disdain for this site and its commenters is well-known; one could hardly miss it as it has been frequently restated by you both in your current iteration and under your previous, now banned for trolling amongst other unsavoury behaviours, identity. Everybody knows who you are and what you are so it's a bit late to try and pretend that you are the good-natured voice of reason in this neighbourhood.

It was a statement Rendel, that they "probably" get revenue from promoting Amazon products. Which you have now pointed out, they do state at the top of the page. 

That's it - end of story. 

And if it has to do with me  not the comment then take it up with road.cc or something. I'm within the t&c's - if it isn't you can speak to them, not be their policeman.

No need to get so worked up about it. Just calm down a touch, please. You're just making mountains out of molehills like usual. Probably because you're a writer I guess.

Pretty sure previously banned users coming back on again as someone else is not in most sites t&c's. 
Also I am sure you must have broken one of these to come back on, especially the last one.

Go on then, just state for the record, as you never have, that you are not the poster who was banned from this site as thisismyusername. You are, definitely, the one who came back using the name Rendel Harriz and when you were stopped from doing that started using the name Ledner Sirrah (oh so clever!) so you can drop the crap about me being obsessed with you, silly boy.

Mainly because margins have been squeezed by online retailers who are able to offer the same product at a lower price because they can afford to operate at net profit margins well under 5% which would be death to a small business. 

This means costs for servicing have gone up to compensate and allow the shops to subsidise their sales side.
