Best Bike Related Purchase 2012
I did this last year and it went down well so thought I would make an early start as I am struggling to pin point one.

Nice product but has limitations, like most. Particularly if you use heavy electric bikes.

Currently, I'm thinking it's the winter overshoes that have restored feeling to my feet! Once I switch to my new wheels though, I may think the best purchase is a certain pair of mavic ksyrium equipes.
Latex inner tubes and vittoria evo cx tyres.
Oh and the dura ace Caad 10 aint bad either.
My Garmin Edge 800. Fantastic piece of kit. Can use it like a sat nav for route planning or following a pre-prepared route and tracks all my stats including power. It's revolutionised the way I ride a bike.
New road bike (Cinelli Experience). Had an entry-level Allez for years and never used it properly until this year. Had started upgrading until it came to an abrupt end in the shape of the side a BMW 5 Series with a smidsy driver. His insurance paid for the new bike, and the difference is unreal.
Awesome. Really pleased for you Keith.
Arranging my best one soon, Ice Trike.
Other than that, its got to be the Road.cc Kit
