A bit cheaper at Fine Whip and free freight but catch is you have to buy 500

Or you could buy 50 for $54.95 from finewhip.

OMGosh... Sorely tempted... Is there anything better value for money than this right now? Plus, the wheels really do look lovely.

Aldi/Cycling Express ones are pretty crappy. This one from HN looks to be the same one.

Yeah I know - was looking through, site was going super slow then it just crashed.

Didn't have what I was chasing though anyway, all good.

Managed to grab the Sub Zero winter jacket for $60. I'm now sorted for winter.

The 2XU stuff was mostly odd sizes like XXS or XXL though I saw a gillet and some compression bib longs in M that would fit me but I don't really need them and I can get other brands of these for the same or lower price all day every day so it wasn't worth getting too excited about.

Anyone tried the "comp cycle jersey". only $25. In the market for a couple jerseys, how would these stack up to Sugoi/LG? Biggest thing is the fit though, their "Cycle Sub" jersey looks form fitting, but it's $120.

That sub-zero cycle jacket looks awesome for $60. How cold does it need to get to put that on? Sorry, haven't cycled in winter before

Quick question - is the 2XU cycling specific stuff any good? havent really heard much mention of them in the cycling forums...

Was looking to get the l/s jersey and a jacket.

Cheers

On the 2XU stuff, has anyone owned any before....mainly a question about sizing as there was no size guide for heaps of the stuff. Is it form fitting (ie castelli) or fit true to size....(hate the variance on bicycle clothing!)

Anyway, have ordered a couple of XL tops so will see how it goes.

My best bibs are 2XU. I've had them for about two and a half years and they get used just about every weekend. My other bibs are cheap Cell and Torpedo and the 2XU are definitely much much better quality. The 2XU bibs were (from memory) about $120 from the LBS.

I was quite disappointed that the current sale didn't have any M sized bibs .

Cheers,
Simon.

Anyone looking for a Cannondale Slice RS Black Edition?

This looks good on the Specialized RED TICKET PROMOTION:

KHS Ultegra Di2 bike for $1799 at Torpedo7. It's got a FSA Gossamer crank and Tektro brakes, Aksium wheels, tiagra cassette and Ultegra is just being superseded but that's some very good value right there...

just a follow up on the 2XU sale...I will definitely be keeping a look out for outlet sales in future. Got my Cycle L/S top (more a jacket than a jersey) and the Comp cycle top....both well made with great technical features for $25 each. I should be sorted for winter.

Also for those interested in sizing, i think they are probably on the tighter fitting side of things (183cm and 92kg so an XL fits me fine)

That's cheaper than the groupset on its own. I wish it was my size (and I had a spare $2k).
