Yes, it’s Prime Day Deals time again! This year, it’s coincided almost exactly with a period of ridiculously hot weather here in the UK. Make of that what you will.
In this round of Amazon’s semi-regular discounts, the enormous internet tat shop is reducing prices on just about everything, including some decent cycling kit (it’s not all tat if you look hard enough). In this round-up, we’ve selected the best stuff we could find, avoiding anything with a weird brand name like BIKEYPLOPS, and trying our best to find genuine price reductions rather than ‘discounts’ that are actually higher than previous prices.
We’re very much aware that Amazon is not for everyone, but buying deals here does help us cover the ever-increasing costs of running the world’s best cycling website. You’ll need a Prime account to take advantage of these prices, but you can usually take out a free or discounted trial and cancel it immediately.
You’ll also find that most normal retailers will match these prices, so buy with them if you’re not a fan of funding Bezos’ next extraterrestrial trip. If we find any of these products cheaper elsewhere, we’ll say so.
Right, to the deals!
Park Tool’s Chain Gang cleaning system is under £30 for Prime Day, the lowest price on the web
To clarify, this cleaning kit from Park Tool is for cleaning your chain, not a chaingang – although any disciplined groups of bicycle racers out in this stifling weather could probably do with a good wash.
You get Park Tool’s highly regarded chain cleaner, chain and component fluid, plus a brush for removing bits of dirt from your cassette and mechs. Cheaper imitations exist, but if you want tried and tested quality that will last you years, Park Tool should be your first port of call for bike tools – and at 30% off, this combo is a bit of a steal right now.
Grab the Park Tool CG-2.4 Chain Gang Chain Cleaning System for just £29.91, saving you 30%
Get 5 litres of Muc-Off’s Nano Tech Bike Cleaner for just £23.96, easily the best price right now
You can keep your bike spick and span for the rest of the year, next year and possibly the year after for a little over 20 quid thanks to this Big Prime Deal (we think this is like a Prime Day Deal but better, although Amazon haven’t really explained) on Muc-Off classic Nano Tech cleaner.
Though Muc-Off does call its Nano Tech cleaner “the OG of bike cleaners”, claiming it “…breaks down dirt and grime on microscopic levels”, most road.cc staffers agree that this cleaner is nothing mega fancy, but does the job for regular post-ride cleans.
You certainly won’t find it cheaper anywhere else right now, with the price usually set around £30 at most retailers even with discounting.

The Wahoo Elemnt Bolt V3 computer is down to £253.99 with 15% off
Wahoo started strong with its original Bolt bike computer, a small, simple and robust GPS unit that a lot of road cyclists still swear by. Since its release, Wahoo has made incremental upgrades that have improved the screen, battery life, and storage capacity, while maintaining a compact footprint. We’ve been fans of each iteration, including the most recent one.
At £253.99, the latest edition is a worthwhile investment for many years of cycling, and Wahoo’s support is second-to-none. It’s currently the lowest price we can find, so if you were after one anyway, now might be the time to take advantage.
Get the Wahoo Elemnt Bolt V3 at 15% off
29% off Garmin Fēnix 8, 43mm
Prime Day Deals usually include at least one Garmin bike computer, but they’re conspicuous in their absence this year. We’ll have to make do with Garmin’s do-it-all Fēnix 8 smartwatch, which offers most of the features of a dedicated bike unit in a handy wrist-based format.
We’ve picked the slightly smaller 43mm unit here because it’s the first time its price has been this low, and its svelte form factor and white colourway don’t make it look like you’ve somehow got an Oreo stuck to your arm. If you want to go bigger, the 47mm unit is also reduced by 28%. Take a look at George’s review of the Pro edition to find out more.

Save a huge 30% on the Sage bean-to-cup Barista Express coffee machine
Our video chap Liam – who has a regal taste in coffee – owns this very machine, and is a little miffed that he could have saved over £180 if he’d have waited for this big Prime Day promo.
To those of you who don’t know much about coffee, you’ll probably be alarmed to find out that the Sage Barista Express is absolutely nowhere near the most you can spend on a coffee machine (there are grinders alone that can cost thousands) – but it’s among the most premium machines around with the grinding, coffee making and milk frothing all built into one thing.
A milk jug is included, it promises precision grinding, and even though this is bean-to-cup, the tamping is manual so you can get the best of both worlds. It will also look nice in your kitchen with the brushed stainless steel finish.
Get the Sage Barista for just £449, saving you 29%
40% off Beats Powerbeats Fit Earbuds
We’d usually include Shokz headphones here, but despite being part of the Prime Day Deals, there are no substantial discounts on those particular bone-conduction audio transmitters. Instead, we’re highlighting these Powerbeats Fit earbuds, which have hit an all-time low price of £119.
While these don’t make use of bone-conduction tech, their in-ear fit provides better sound quality, and transparency mode ensures you can still hear what’s going on around you, as George highlighted in his review. They’re also built for exercise with sweat and water resistance, plus wingtips that ensure they stay in place when you’re pumping out the watts.

24% Off DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro Standard Combo
This was a tough choice: there are lots of reduced action cams on Amazon right now, but we’ve gone for DJI’s Osmo Action 5 Pro because it’s packed with features for a reasonable price. The star of the show here is a 4K, 1/1.3” sensor that works well in low light, which is typically a weak point for action cams.
Its £233 price point is the lowest it’s been, and the standard combo includes a neat quick-release adapter for GoPro-style mounts. Would you like to know more? Check out Dave’s review.

20% off Wahoo Speedplay Zero Pedal System
Just so we’re clear: the Speedplay Zero Pedal System doesn’t mean zero pedalling. But, for the act of propelling your bicycle, this Wahoo acquisition offers a level of adjustability that competing pedals can’t match. Bike fitters love them for solving biomechanical issues, while the interface is said to deliver power with utmost efficiency.
At £143.49, these are still pretty pricey, but if they mean you avoid a knee replacement they’re probably worth it.

19% off Endura Men’s Xtract Gel Cycling Bibshorts II
Speaking from painful experience, cycling shorts aren’t something you want to skimp on. That said, Endura’s budget bike shorts got a decent review from Stu, who reckoned the all-important pad made up for the rather pedestrian design.
They were £58 when Stu reviewed them, so their Prime Day Deal price of £35.65 is utterly bargalicious.

23% off Endura Men’s Hummvee Plus Mitt II
The perfect glove for the current heatwave, the Hummvee mitt boasts ventilation to keep your hands cool, padding to protect your nerves, and protection for when you sink into the liquid tar of a molten road.
Prices and availability vary based on sizing, but £13.09 for the medium fit is a good price for a decent glove from a known brand.

20% off Redshift ShockStop Endurance Suspension Seatpost
Aimed squarely at the gravel and hybrid market, Redshift’s ShockStop seatpost adds suspension to your bike without the rigmarole of chopping your frame to bits to add a rear shock. Stu really liked it, but he had issues with the price tag.
At £183.99 in most sizes right now at Amazon, it’s a far more reasonable proposition, and Stu is much happier now.
Smooth your ride with the Redshift ShockStop from £183.99
19% off Cycplus AS2 Ultra Tiny Bicycle Pump
Battery-powered pumps are all the rage at the moment, saving litres of elbow grease and pumping tyres to max within minutes. Cycplus is a pioneer in this arena, and its AS2 miniaturises the format even further, delivering 120 PSI pressure in an 87g unit.
Cycplus has also miniaturised the price for Prime Day, bringing it down to an all-time low of £88.82.
Get pumped with the Cycplus AS2 for £88.82
35% off High5 Energy Gels with Electrolytes
A must-have for riding on hot days, High5’s energy gels include electrolytes, so you can replenish all those minerals you’ve lost through sweating buckets. They also pack 23g of carbs, and anecdotally they’re easier on the stomach with fewer unmentionable side effects than some other gels.
At £13 for a pack of 20, or 65p per gel, now’s the time to grab some — and you can shove ‘em in the freezer to create some ridiculously sticky ice pops.
Fuel your next ride with High5 Energy Gels for £13
Continental Grand Prix 5000 tyres in a 30mm size are on offer at their lowest price ever for Prime Day
Continental’s legendary Grand Prix 5000 tyre is an absolute staple of the road riding scene in the UK and beyond, Stu gave them a nigh-on perfect 9/10 score when he reviewed them, noting their grip and durability. There is no tubeless compatibility here, but you can team them with TPU inner tubes to keep weight and rolling resistance low.
The Prime Day price on the 30c version is £44.64 per tyre, and the 32mm version at £47.11 is the lowest we can find online right now too.
Get the Continental Grand Prix 5000 (30c) for £44.64, saving 23%
Get the Continental Grand Prix 5000 (32c) for £47.11, saving 21%
