Check this One Day Sale - GGarmin Forerunner 205 GPS Receiver and Sports Watch for $99. I know that this is not cutting edge, but someone who is in the market for similar can make use of it. You will need to order it today though.

OH HAI

Is this the same love2pedal and the same bib shorts you guys speak of? Then kickass deal.

http://cgi.ebay.com/2pr-56-BIBS-BIBSHOR ... 588a4a8f3a

And why no small? I've been relegated to the 30-32 bracket from 32-34.

Yes yes yes!

But why dont u write dan an email and ask him! the site doesnt have any info on S sized bibs.

They rock for the price - best i've used - way better than the decathlon shorts. Ofc, you may get better stuff at better prices, but in this price its a steal!

it also says "Shipping to India not available"!!! Also looking at the chamois it's the same like the one I have on the P.I. Quest, but the Quest padding atleast looks better than this. The Quest is very very good for the price I used it on my Brevets. It's currently going for about 43GBP at Evans & available in all sizes & delivery to India for free too.

Decathlon has some sale going on spare parts. All their forks are on sale. The Rockrider 5.3 fork (100mm with lockout) that looks terribly like my stock fork (Spinner 300) is on sale for 449 bucks. Member price was 3.4k IIRC. That's a steal if you need a new/better fork or if you're looking for lock out on your bike.

Abhi, I saw this fork and thought of your bike!

Happens to me like clockwork. :) Not just forks. Lot of other stuff - people who want derailleurs, shifters, cassettes, chains, whatever, now is the time.

Doc: I doubt, most of their RB stuff, if any, will be for the Sport 1. 2300 level.

Their tubes are on sale though, including the 700c ones.
