Great cycling deals on Specialized, Castelli, & Muc-Off

In today's DealCatcher we've got one of our pics for the best aluminium road bikes of 2016 at a discount price, alongside a couple of other bits and bobs that will be very useful as the weather continues to deteriorate.

From Hargroves Cycles comes a Specialized Allez with a tasty little 25% discount attached to it. If you follow the link below our listing of the Allez in today's article you'll notice it's the second entry in the round-up we made of 2016 aluminium bikes to look out for.

Second up is Castelli's vaguely named Toe Thingy, which is as cheap as we think you'll find it at the moment over on Ribble Cycles' website.

Finally, your bike's going to get mucky over the next few months, so ask yourself now: are you equipped? If the answer is no, check out the great deal on Muc-Off brushes over at Tweeks Cycles.

Hargroves Cycles

25% off Specialized's Allez Elite 2016 Road Bike
WAS £949.00 | NOW £712.00

Specialized introduced its SmartWeld frame technology to the market via the super expensive £7500 Allez a few years ago. Over the last few years though they've managed to bring the technology to cheaper and cheaper models.

This Allez Elite features that same tech alongside Shimano's newly revised Tiagra groupset. It's a bargain, plain and simple.

Ribble Cycles

14% off Castelli's Toe Thingy
WAS £14.00 | NOW £12.00

Granted, Castelli's Toe Thingy hasn't got the most descriptive name, but it's a great little bit of kit that'll do wonders for autumnal rides.

Our tech editor Mat Brett says that the Toe Thing "provides a little extra warmth on days that are cool but not so cold that you want to go with full overshoes."

Mat also goes on to call the name "class," we can't help but agree.

Tweeks Cycles

31% off Muc-Off's 5-Piece Brush Set
WAS £26.00 | NOW £17.99

Finally, Muc-Off's brush set covers all of the basics if you want to keep your bike clean this winter.

Our man Shaun Audane ran the brushes through their paces and liked what he saw, for the most part.

If you're brushless at the moment, this is the perfect place to start, and at this price they're quite a bargain.
