anyone familiar with ENVE mountain bike gear? they have a lot of stuff at 50% merino shirts, mountain tees, shorts, and some other random stuff. unfortunately not much info on fit or picture with real people wearing them, so hard to say how they fit

Running warehouse have the saucony endorphin speed 3 with 20% off…

MTB group sets (Shimano) discounted. I pieced my one together, so not sure how great of a deal it is, but seems pretty reasonable, $620 for XT 12 speed with 2 pot brakes.

Bike Tires Direct running a SRAM sale. Ends at midnight.

I saw that too under their daily deal today and started to post it, but then realized the exact same group was posted above far cheaper.

Good time to flag that BTD does price match.

I think everyone has SRAM on sale. I’ve gotten notices from nearly every online place that has my email.

New stuff incoming! It will be 1g lighter and WAY more aero :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Yeah I’m a gold member and would want to wait for that.

Can’t forget the new components being stiffer and more compliant

I’d be checking the manufacture date of the SRAM stuff cos of the recall

Received my Pactimo Flyte bibs yesterday. Sharing my quick first impressions for anyone who is on the fence about ordering. I wear a Rapha L and ordered the Flyte in L too. The Flyte are a bit tighter than Rapha Pro, and a full size smaller than Rapha Classic. I should have ordered a size bigger. They are VERY lightweight, but feel like high quality, especially for the price. They’re so light that when I opened the package I was worried there was going to be a jersey inside. They have a nice chamois that feels similar to Rapha or Velocio. The leg grippers are seamless. I am returning them, but only because the legs are very long and bunch up behind my knee. Assuming they fit you, they’re a great product for the price.

I wore my Range Vector Cargo Bibs yesterday for a 3 hour ride. They were very comfortable. I liked the large cargo pockets. The straps were very stretchy which made pee breaks easy. They are definitely lightweight compared to my Voler and TheBlackBibs bibs. But the quality feels good so hopefully lightweight doesn’t mean less durable. I ordered a L and they felt good. L is my normal size.

In what brands? Thanks for sharing!

Voler, blackbibs, neopro, Rapha.

I just received my Pactimo 12 Hour bibs and am very impressed so far. The pad has the firm density I wanted and the fit is great. I got the large and am a large generally. The straps are very soft and cush. Too many bibs crap out on the straps.

This is my 5th pair of Pactimo bibs/shorts. I use their liner bibs and shorts for indoor training. I also use their Alpine (winter) bibs for cold weather. All work very well for me. I’m glad I tried the 12-hour bibs. The sale price makes them extremely attractive. Now the weather just needs to cooperate so I can ride in them. Then I’ll see if I like these as well as my current long-ride favorites, 7mesh.

One thing to note: the Flyte bibs have 30 days return guarantee. You can wear em and wash em a few times and still return them.
None of the other Pactimo bibs have this return guarantee.

Wow. Thats impressive!

Tried my new Flyte bibs this morning during a 2-hour indoor ride.
I have a pair of Pactimo 12-hour bib that I really like. Those are Large, so I ordered the Flyte in Large as well.

  • The fit between the 2 pairs was comparable, except for the ends where the leg grippers are. There the Flyte felt more compressive than the 12-hour bibs.
  • The grippers on the Flyte work really well on my hairy legs, better than most other bibs that have silicone grippers
  • The chamois of the Flyte bibs is a simpler design than the 12-hour bibs. The center cutouts are a lot less pronounced on the Flyte bibs. After my first ride, I think I prefer the chamois in the 12-hour bibs.
  • The legs of the Flyte bibs appear .5-1" longer than the legs of the 12-hour bibs. It didn’t bother me, but the do indeed feel a bit longer.

Not sure yet if I return them, but I wouldn’t buy another pair

About to buy one too if I can get a medium. Too good to pass up

Looks like Rock n Road Cyclery has the same deal. About to get one of these since I can’t find the Spark RC for as good of a deal and swap the xx1 axs and fox 34 over from my old spark!
