So, what are you waiting for. Get your scrolling finger and your wallet ready and tuck right in!

 

Evans Cycles

21% off BMC's 2016 Granfondo GF02 Road Bike
WAS £2299.00 | NOW £1799.00

When a bike manufacturer develops a range of bikes in close association with its own racing team, chances are the machine will be pretty focused on pace.

Making assumptions like that with the BMC Granfondo range will land you on the money. 

The GF01 Disc, which we reviewed and gave an 8/10 to, was developed closely with the BMC Racing Team, and the vertical compliance, stable handling and comfort priorities that became clear during that development have trickled down to the slightly cheaper GF02.

Gone are the disc brakes, and a couple of extra performance-enhancing factors, but the price is massively down to.

The GF02 offers sensational ride quality and performance in a very reasonably priced package.

Science in Sport

2-for-1 on SIS REGO Rapid Recovery Protein 1kg tub
WAS £48.00 | NOW £24.00

When you're buying consumable goods like nutrition products, 2-for-1 offers are as good as 50% discounts. You are, after all, going to consume the same quantity of protein powder regardless when you actually buy it.

SiS's REGO Rapid Recovery Protein is excellent for muscle recovery and building endurance. We know, we've had experience with the REGO range.

The bars, which our man David Else reviewed below, are a fantastically tasty mix of carbs and protein. We're fairly sure you'll have the same experience with this powder.

Tweeks Cycles

44% off Shimano's RS10 Clincher Wheelset
WAS £179.99 | NOW £100.00

Finally, if you're looking for a departure from the weighty wheels your bike came with, check out Shimano's fantastic entry-level RS10 wheelset.

Our man David Else put the wheels through their paces and said that they performed as well as they looked.

They ride well, they're reliable, and while they're not featherweight, they're reasonably weighted for an entry-level pair of wheels.
