The DealCatcher's back with a bumper Thursday edition, and five amazing cycling deals that'll blow your bank accounts wide open.
We've had three great Dealcatchers this week which have seen you guys make some incredible savings. You can take a look back at those by following the links below this introduction, but the real deals - including our most heavily discounted item of the week (a pair of Club Roost bib shorts at an 80% discount) - are here waiting for you.
Away from BuyaBike's bargain bibshorts, we've got a Cube from Chain Reaction Cycles for 30% less than RRP; a half-price Specialized jersey from JEJames; a pair of Altura overshoes at a 41% discount; and 40% off an SKS mudguard set from ProBikeKit.
Chain Reaction Cycles
Carrying a shining road.cc review through the world of retail, the Cube Peloton has been a great seller this year.
We gave it a 9/10 back in May, and our man Dave Arthur said that the Peloton was "proof that you don't need to spend a fortune to lay your hands on a high performance road bike. It's all the things a road bike should be; fun, fast and exciting."
He highlighted the fantastic frame and incredible value for money at £599. Here it is for almost £200 less, which we'd suggest makes it even more of a steal.
BuyaBike
Right here you've got something of an exclusive.
Discounted especially for you, our dear readers, BuyaBike have gone over and above to ensure that you're getting an incredible deal.
Show us somewhere else where you can get you're hands on a £60 pair of bib shorts for £12 in a large range of sizes.
We've not tested these Club Roost bib shorts, but if you need a little more convincing that these are a fantastic deal, check out our buyers' guide to bib shorts to make sure you're clued up and your eyes aren't deceiving you.
JEJames Cycles
Now, we're not sure you've noticed, but the weather's been changing. So with that in mind our last three deals are targeted at helping you through these times of cycling hardship, in one way or another.
First up, we've got a jersey that'll keep you a little warmer that your summer gear, while not drowning you in heat like a lot of the thermal and winter stuff on offer will for half of its normal retail price.
This Specialized Pro jersey will not only cover your arms, protecting you from wind chill, it's got some reflective details to make sure you're seen in failing light, and gripper elastic round the hem to avoid any unwanted midriff exposure.
Hargroves Cycles
You've got a couple of options on the keeping-your-feet-warm front over the coming months. One is to invest in some winter riding footwear, the other is to grab yourself a pair of overshoes to keep out the elements and add an extra layer of insulation to your most extreme extremity.
These overshoes from Altura are waterproof, will work over a huge variety of footwear - so you're good if you prefer mountain bike shoes to lightweight road kicks - and are fitted with reflective detailing to keep you seen in the encroaching evenings.
ProBikeKit
Finally, you might already be well aware of the state the deteriorating weather can leave you and your bike after a particularly unpleasant commute.
There are a couple of easy solutions. The first is to put up with it, and wash yourself, your bike, and your cloths significantly more regularly. The second is to invest in a pair of mudguards.
This pair from SKS are a close brother the the pair of Chromoplastic mudguards that we reviewed fantastically in 2012 - spoiler: they got 9/10 - and at this price they seem like even more of a sensible purchase.
They also feature in our mudguards buyers guide which you can read below.
