Easter's over, but spring's still rolling on. Which means that Wiggle spring sale is also still rolling forward. The DealCatcher's been exploring what's on offer at the cycling retailer and has come back with a couple of items he thinks you guys will like.
As we're all aware the weather's not going to be sunny non-stop now until autumn starts creeping in, we're going to see plenty of rain and cold alongside some lengthy doses of sunshine (we hope). That truth is reflected in the selection we've got for you today.
First up the DealCatcher's found a couple of jerseys that should fill gaps in your spring wardrobes. Altura's Peloton jersey is a great performance piece, while Sportful's Pista offers mid-layer warmth if the temperature decides to plumit.
We've got a selection of bike components too. Shimano pedals and wheels feature alongside a golden KMC chain and a Cosine wheelset.
Finally, we've got a bargain Eastway Zener D0 bike for you lot to sink your teeth into too.
If you're missing some short sleeve performance wear in your spring wardrobe look no further than Altura's excellent Peloton jersey.
No matter how warm the weather is, this jersey will stay dry and breathable all day thanks to it's polyester high-wicking stretch fabric and underarm mesh panels.
On the other end of the spring spectrum is Sportful's Pista jersey.
Long sleeve and with an eye on low temperatures the Pista jersey is both breathable and warm thanks to soft brushed fleece lining.
Don't worry about overheating though, a full zip and thermo flow technology will keep things comfortable.
If your chain's been abused by the winter, why not add a bit of bling to your ride? Bikes need love too.
Seriously though, even if you're not after a gold chain for aesthetic reasons, our tech editor Mat Brett called the KMC X11 a smooth-running lightweight and durable option.
We loved Shimano's Ultegra 6800 groupset when it came in for review.
Our tech editor Dave Arthur gave it an incredible 9/10, so if that's anything to go by you're getting far more than just value for money here.
The first of our two wheelsets in today's DealCatcher come to you from Cosine.
We had the Cosine 45mm wheels in for test just over a year ago and our reviewer-extraordinairre called them fast, stiff and comfortable while also being "brilliant value for money.
Seeing as we spoke so highly of Shimano's Ultegra groupset earlier on, it'd be remiss of us to not highlight that this incredibly-priced Eastway Zener D0 is running the entire Ultegra groupset alongside Shimano's RS805 hydraulic disc brakes.
The endurance road bike also carries a Fizik Antares R5 saddle and DT Swiss's RR21 wheels.
Finally, Shimano's top-of-the-line Dura Ace 9100 C24 Clincher wheels are sitting pretty at £764.98 right now over at Wiggle.
Hitting an astonishing 9/10 in the road.cc review as recently as January, you'll be blown away by the stiff, fast-reacting nature of these excellent wheels.
So the collective noun for a group of cyclists is 'a hoard'?
