Today's DealCatcher is exploring the worlds of carbon road bike bargains, caffeined fuelled supplements, and unbelievable jersey offers.
From the folks at Hargroves we've got a great deal on an excellently lightweight carbon Scott Addict 20. It's seen a 34% discount and would be a wonderful addition to anyone who's looking to speed things up in the spring's garage.
Secondly, Science in Sport has sliced the price of its brand new GO Caffeine Shots to close to half price, if you're in the market for two.
Finally Ribble's own short sleeve jersey has had a pretty hefty 63% discount applied to it, bringing its price below the £10 threshold of bargainality - yes, that's a word...
Hargroves Cycles
First up, let's look at what Scott has on offer here.
The British bike manufacturer's mid-range 20 model is full carbon and weighs in - frame and fork only - at 1,220 grams.
A mixture of Shimano's superb 105 and Ultegra groupset components gives the machine a fantastic ride; the Syncros RP2.0 rims help too.
The pros like Scott Addicts too. Check out Simon Yates's Scott Addict below:
Science in Sport
If you're after a boost come race day, or you need a little bit of a kickstart to your spring training, Science in Sport's new GO Caffeine Shots will probably get you pu to speed faster than anything else out there.
The 60ml bottles carry an incredible 150mg of caffeine to get your head and body in gear.
We've played with SiS's GO caffeine products before and liked what we've seen/felt.
Ribble
The sun's coming out... gradually.
So soon enough those winter tops will find a spot in the bottom of your wardrobe and numbers like this one will be out and about.
So, why not treat yourself to a new jersey? For £8 from Ribble you're getting quite the selection of features too.
Silicon grippers on the bottom will keep you comfortable as will the full zip when things get toasty.
The comment about the possible lack of mudguard mounts is absolutely brilliant! Cheers.

these look like they run super Duper narrow!
I agree on all points. In case you're wondering, this specific model runs a bit narrower than most other fizik SPD shoes that I've worn in the past...
