I'm sure you're all well aware that the DealCatcher would do anything for you. He'd climb mountains and cross oceans for you; essentially he'd go absolutely anywhere in search of the best cycling deals.
Today he's broken new ground by paying the guys over at Vanilla bikes a visit, and on that trip he found a pretty incredible deal on what is almost a complete cycling wardrobe from Assos.
He also made the trip over to see what those deal magicians at Merlin Cycles and the guys over at Cycle Surgery had to offer.
The cycle surgeons have a great deal on Altura Night Vision Waterproof Jackets, from which they've amputated half of the RRP, while Merlin Cycles are offering a Sensa Romanga 2015 Road Bike for 25% less than normal.
Vanilla Bikes
Vanilla bikes are offering this sock, jersey and cap bundle for an incredible £68 off.
You've got the option of red or blue and the numbers 77 or 29. The significance of those numbers sailed over the DealCatcher's head, but he did discover that should you shell out for this bargain bundle, you'll receive your kit beautifully boxed and with a catalogue memorialising the history of 6-day races.
Merlin Cycles
This Sensa Romagna Comp comes from the flat Dutch countryside. Don't let its heritage fool you, this machine can climb as well as anything in the £500-£1000 price range.
The double butted aluminium frame has a carbon-look finish to it, a carbon steerer, and carries a Shimano 105 groupset.
The inclusion of Shimano 105 makes this bike something of a bargain in this price range, so if you're after a new winter runaround, or just something sparkly and new, you might want to snap this up while you still can.

Finally, a DealCatcher at this time of year wouldn't be complete without something to help you through harsh weather.
This jacket got a very respectable 7/10 when we reviewed it, and our reviewer even commented that the full price was fair.
At this price, then, surely it's a steal. Grab 'em while you can!
The area isn't exactly historic! And loads of CAR parking just up the road
I agree, intuitively one would assume that spending eight or more hours a day on the road would make them better drivers but it's not like sport...
San Francisco: it was actually approved and they were going to go ahead with it until public outcry forced them to back down.
I hate it when I can't find the obvious source of a puncture.
Similar to how apparently there's nothing wrong with cyclists sharing a road with cars and SUVs and HGVs and yet shared use infrastructure...
Well, yes, that's kinda my point. I think stating that "Norway is socialist" is a questionable perspective. I'd say it was a Nordic social...
Now, if we're talking gravel bikes, that's a whole different story. Gimme, gimme, gimme! Apologies for the Facebook link....
The police are operationally independent, in fact the regional Police and Crime Commissioners have to swear in their oath of office that they will...
"'Right", said Fred, "we'll 'ave to get a move on…"
Thanks for the review. I like that Orbea have included aero extras and wish more manufacturers would stick two fingers up at the UCI - at least in...
