We're not sure if you've read, but cyclocross has been in the news in a big way this week. Now, we don't think there's anything untoward going on inside the seat tube of the Raleigh RX below, but you'll have to buy one to find out.
Of course, if you're going to go looking for - or installing your own - hidden motors in cyclocross bikes from Chain Reaction Cycles, you'll need some tools. Fortunately, the DealCatcher's got you covered there. Over at Hargroves their Essence Tool Kit from IceToolz has seen a 33% discount.
On a totally unrelated note, Leisure Lakes Bikes have 30% off their rather charming looking selection of Castelli Gregge 12 Socks.
Check 'em out.
Chain Reaction Cycles
We reviewed the RX Race's older brother back in 2013. We gave its earlier incarnation a solid 8/10, if that can give you any idea what to expect from this 2015 edition.
The modern day RX will see you through harsh weather on your daily commute and deep mud on a cyclocross course.
We can't testify as to the ease of which a motor could be installed into the seat tube, but I guess that's something you can explore for yourselves.
Hargroves Cycles
We jested earlier that you'd need tools to install a hidden motor into your bike.
Of course you'll need tools, but maybe not these tools.

Finally, socks.
You can never have too many socks. Ever. If you were denied the pleasure of opening a pair for Christmas, now's the chance to treat yourself.
These are top quality Castelli socks. Merino wool - with fabulous moisture wicking abilities, comfort in temperatures between 0-12 degrees, and a 12cm cuff for extra protection from the elements for your feet.
