The deals just keep on coming here at the DealCatcher, and today Cycle Store are getting in on the act.
The selection of deals from Cycle Store today feature a number of excellent Specialized products - with discounts as high as 72%, as well as a great offer on a Cannondale helmet and a pair of bifocal Dual sunglasses.
So, without further ado, let's tuck in:
First up is arguably the best value deal of the day.
Whether you've just joined the club and you're looking to equip your bike with some essentials, or you're suddenly finding yourself in the market for a saddle bag, travel pump, bottle cage, or tyre irons, the value that this deal offers should at least make you stop for thought.
At most, it should lead you to reach for your wallet, because £14 for Specialized's Airtool mini frame pump alone is a decent deal - you'll often find them priced at around £16 on their own.
On top of that you'll get Specialized's Mini-Wedgie bag which has a volume of 48.5 cubic inches and a water resistant upper and zipper, Specialized's Alloy Zee Cage which features easy 'in-and-out' with its side-loading design, and a set of EMT Pro tyre levers.
Now, high quality, expensive helmets can often be difficult to justify. Close to £100 is a lot of money to shell out for something that can only be 'used' once.
We're not about to weigh in on the helmet debate, and you can't really put a price on your health, life, and wellbeing, but when you get a chance to get your hands on a top quality helmet for a cheap helmet's price, you've got to pay attention.
We can attest to this helmet's quality too. It got a 9/10 on road.cc review - well it's aero version did.
Two options of Specialized jersey are also available in today's DealCatcher.
The first is the most season-appropriate jersey on offer today - the Specialized SL Elite jersey.
The short sleeved jersey offers sensational comfort thanks to the highly elasticated SL 100 fabric which also has a Hydrofit finish and UPF +50 UV protection to keep you safe and dry.
The other option today will feel like more of an investment than something you might be able to enjoy immediately - but we expect these jerseys to be a little more expensive come autumn.
Buying unseasonal clothing might seem mad to some of you, but we know plenty of you - and plenty of us in the road.cc office - tend to buy our clothes out of season to get the best price.
So, if you're planning on riding a lot in the autumn and winter months, checking out this breathable yet water repellant Platino 285 polyester fabric jersey might be to your benefit.
Chosing the right sunglasses can be tough for cyclists. Do you want a frame, do you want changable lenses, do they offer protection from UV rays, wind, rain, dust?
To help you make these tough decisions, we've put together a buyer's guide to help you and why we include a little bit of advice every time we write about sunglasses in the DealCatcher.
Buying a pair of bifocal sunglasses for cycling in is essential for those of you who have trouble seeing long distances, but want to also keep everything nearby in focus.
Dual offer a fantastic range of bifocal sunglasses, including these G5s at a +1.5, +2.0 and +2.5 magnification.
Finally, Specialized's Expert Road Shoe offer incredible stiffness, fantastic weight, and brilliant performance for a - now - very reasonable price.
Specialized trademarked Boa dial adjustability and their FACT carbon/composite fibre soles offer excellent comfort and efficient power transfer, while the light supple thermobonded upper keeps the fit close to perfect.
Thankfully there's that sign on the post to help them.
Ah yes, just spotted where "performance line" is quoted on the website. Couldn't see any that fall into both 'evolution' and 'performance' line...
Road tubeless? Worst upgrade I ever made, hoping when I get round to trying over Xmas that I can get the new (non-tubeless, so hopefully a slacker...

Thanks for your input, ride safe!
And we can be sure that Police Scotland would be similarly disinterested...
The self-professed cyclists are really self-claimed cyclists of the 'I'm a cyclist myself' variety
They should read scampercraft and not exaggerate the danger of scuttling along. I discourage squirrel predation by acting like one.
You can get the Varia for £10 less from Decathlon.
Perhaps they should apply the same standard to dangerous, unsafe, poorly designed roads and COMPLETELY rip them out rather than "fix" or "redesign"...
