25% off dhb's Aeron Rain Defence Bib Shorts
WAS £80.00 | NOW £60.00

When we were talking about marginal gains earlier in this piece we had bits of gear like this in mind.

If you're after a pair of pro-level bib shorts for a ridiculously reasonable price, look no further.

Our esteemed reviewer Stu Kerton put the non-April shower Rain Defence-ready Aeron shorts through their paces last year and gave them an incredible 9/10.

25% off dhb's Merino Long Sleeve Base Layer
WAS £40.00 | NOW £30.00

Don't believe the recent good weather. It's not yet time to bury your base layers.

Certainly, the major freezes are behind us, but we're bound to have a couple of cold snaps before summer proper is upon us.

Also, they're incredibly useful bits of gear for all sorts of weather conditions and sports - not just cycling.

22% off Campagnolo's Zonda C17 Wheelset
WAS £439.99 | NOW £339.99

Our final deal in this Easter bonanza is Campagnolo's Zonda C17 wheelset.

No, they're not the ultra lightweight wheels that the pros roll on, but they no slouches.

The slightly wider rims and aerodynamic shape reduce rolling resistance and drag while remaining comfortable.
