really anyone buying should aim to get at least 25% off the frameset or frame chassis, not sure why they continue to insist with sworks frame pricing giving that these doesn’t seem to be selling much
They must be playing a long game here. Having the frames be affordable would be in conflict with their greater branding, which is essentially top-level premium. Whether the fact that most of the frames are sold at a discount behind the scenes is undercutting the brand, who knows?
To joke, so only the non price sensitive dentists but at full while all the hardcore get discounts.
I think there’s some truth to this.
Greetings straight from the Vafels factory -
I stumbled upon some Vafels-related content the other day on Trainer Road and thought it could be appropriate to reach out and either introduce Vafels as an alternative ride fuel or just extend an offer to help you get through the monotony of the winter months. [I remember my weeks spent indoors on the trainer / rollers in Vermont… couldn’t wait for any hint of Spring!]

I think that’s the first time I’ve seen an ad on this thread. Smart move, and I appreciate the transparency. Thanks for offering it!
Calling it an “ad” makes it feel so…official!
I honestly just wanted to respond to a thread that was asking about a recipe for “Vafels,” which piqued my interest. I made an account and chimed in, sharing that I couldn’t share the recipe but I could certainly help them stock their pantry… then I found this Deals & Discounts thread and had to share the love.
Cheers
Indeed, let’s refocus on the deals, please.
Mr. Miles - correct, stackable discounts would have to go on a “SUPERDEALS” page, I think… But yes, this promo won’t stack. Hope it’s at least helpful.

Intense ‘951’ brand gravel bike, $1500 ($1000 off) at Costco
SRAM: https://www.costco.com/intense-951-gravel-bike-1x-sram.product.4000230137.html
Shimano: https://www.costco.com/intense-951-gravel-bike.product.4000136191.html
That sram 1x version looks like a great option for a kid or partner who isn’t an avid rider
I have no experience with Apex. Is it the sram equivalent of Tiagra?
I don’t know anything about the wheel set either but as lo no as their durable I’d assume fine.
No, it is more aligned with Shimano 105 in most road cases. GRX is closer to Ultegra level in the Shimano line.
Ok. I thought rival was comparable to 105
Ah crap, you might be right.
I might need more 
this am 
I have rival axs on my road and gravel bikes. So I always thought they were on par with 105. But I have no experience with apex. But I know apex axs guts are same as rival so all should be fine. No idea about mechanical. So many confusing options
