The "what bike bits have you just bought" thread

Found a Cervelo S3 for under 2500, I'm so weak in the face of such temptation.

Apart from the usual suspects & Morevelo, Assos, Rapha, Castelli etc can anyone recommend someone who sells black or black and white Jerseys?

Think Velocio do theirs in black, Velocio.cc, not cheap though.

...all you have to do is complete a 100km ride before the end of the month.

I've 3 pairs now and my Assos have been shifted to XC rides, the Morvelo kit is brilliant.

My favorite Assos bib's have the S2 pad, so are years old, S5's were 'ok' but really don't get on with the S7's - OK for short-ish rides but find the pad moves around and makes your man bit numb!

Morvelo's are really nice, they have the race fit of the S2's with a simple but more modern pad - if it were not for the fact I have depleted the savings quite a bit recently I'd buy another pair.....

I am sure 100km will feature next week, don't think I will risk the import duties on the Strava kit!

£2474 to be precise, www.thetristore.com and use the extra10 code at checkout, I got the last 56cm apparently...

Not quite a snap from today's ride but a snap of Darren Kennys new rage of bikes launched this week, and on show at the Cinnamon Cafe in Windsor today - grabbed a lot of attention from groups stopping for a coffee!

Just ordered one of these. With cashback and British cycling discount at chain reaction it came out at £157

[IroningMan]

Which one is that?

Looking like at least one new spoke for the winter snotter. (Dependent on getting home and to and from work tomorrow.)

Grrr, but better than ruining the roadie in this weather.

Sigma having their annual clear out this weekend. Take your hard hat if you are going.

[loudlashadjuster]

Given the recent turn of the weather and the frankly shabby (and baggy) condition of some of my old kit, some cold weather gear was in order.

Castelli Squadra jacket (superb fit if anyone's needing a light wind/water layer that can go in a pocket)
DHB bib tights
DHB shoe covers
Alpinestars gloves and liners

All arrived safely, but the Wiggle packages arrived WITHOUT ANY HARIBO!

This simply won't do. Last time I'm using Wiggle!

[W00DY]

What's the point in Wiggle without Haribo!? Superstar Components sent me two packets last time which definitely put them in the good books.

Got me some "fk it's cold" gear in the Tweeks sale
