Black Friday, the latest US import intended to motivate people to start their Christmas shopping early with some rather spectacular discounts, is nearly upon us. And it's not all large screen televisions and hoovers, there are plenty of cycling bargains to be had. So while we're not totally down (as I believe they say over there) with the whole Black Friday concept… everybody loves a bargain.
Many Black Friday promotions won't be announced until it's actually Friday, but there are some cycling ones already out there. So here’s a quick roundup of some of the cycling discounts we've found. If you see any good deals why don't you share them on the comments box?

Amazon are doing it again on Cyber Monday. They have a huge 60% off a Garmin Virb Elite Action Cam. Only £139.99 now. Was reviewed here about a month ago for £349.99
Trying to convince myself I need one.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00EQ36ZY2/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=...
CLUG - 50% off has finished, but /clugoff says 2for1 on cyber Monday. I'll wait until the morning then
"Methinks the lack of a couple of asterisks leaves Elliot vulnerable."
No No No! It's the bit above where it says "We're too kind, we really are." that's missing the **

SPEND SPEND SPEND !!!..... why aren't items offered at more affordable prices for the other days of the year ???????????
Fortunately I don't need to buy anything right now to continue happily cycling away for the foreseeable future, tyres will be next on the list but probably not before the january sales start in a couple of weeks or so.....
Because somebody actually needs to make money at some point....
I have the Santini Neoblast gloves that All Ride Now are doing and they are great, cheaper then I could find when I got them!
Black Friday - consumerism at its worst. Adoption of another wankyyanky culture that I would rather see left festering in their screwed up land. What next - fatfcuk day? We celebrate obestity by eating buckets of KFC then shooting each other. Kiss my arse, but please order a queue.
We already have their accept-no-responsibility-for-your-own-actions-it's-someone-else's-fault culture, so what do you expect?
Methinks the lack of a couple of asterisks leaves Elliot vulnerable.
What a sad day for the UK.
Hope all you Black Friday shoppers and retailers enjoyed your Thanksgiving yesterday.
Dont forget Broken Riders - http://brokenridersuk.com/collections/black-friday-sale
More like Grey Friday if you ask me, deals rather thin on the ground, predictably. Looks like some retailers have put their prices back up, then offered Black Friday on those higher prices. Also the big retailers offer less discounts than the smaller ones. Wiggle is £15 off clothing only. Merlin is 10% but looks like they kept their previous, good prices. Kinoko and Shutt VR have some reasonable offers.
My only 'real' deal was a Tacx roller off Amazon of all places for £30 off sale price. But they sold out in 5 mins.
Just don't expect any big surprises, especially if you're looking to blag some reduced top-end components (Red, Dura Ace etc)
Don't forget the special one of deal available today too...
bowmanblackfriday will get you 13.333% off a Palace frame for one day only......
New ride to brighten up your winter training.....
Shameless Plug, I know, but wanted you all to know...the team here at Road.cc seemed to like it.
The clug deal is available more easily from this url: http://www.getclug.com/pages/clugoff
Doesn't need to have a black inner.
Ha! Rutland Cycling kindly deducted VAT from the 449 pounds asking price for the Giant Defy 3, then estimated shipping at 1034 pounds to Sydney. Am I paying for one of their staff to bring it out personally?
can you find somewhere Stages power meter on sale ?
There's the Cycle Surgery 25% off?
Amazon have a lightening deal on a Tacx T1000 Antares Rollers Bike Trainer for £94.99.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B001VRJ4RG/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=...
CycleSurgery are doing 25% off full price componants, clothing and soft goods.
Went onto the Clug site and everything is 25 dollars with no mention of 50% off
You have to change the Inner and Outer colour to black and then enter PAINTITBLACK at the checkout... Works out at around £7.50 with the code and free shipping too!
I don't need one of these. So why am I tempted to buy one anyway?
Damn you, consumerism.
Great stuff! Just bought a clug - free delivery too...
Also, you should mention the 70% off clothing at Specialized Store (in-store only) and some discounts on bikes... http://spclzd.uk/1yYhc8S
Thanks just ordered 3
Cheers
Orange seem to be offering 20% off online purchases, which doesn't include bikes.
