Ortlieb (official site) is a German company that manufacture a range of waterproof bags, camera cases and outdoor gear. For us cyclists they produce a range of cycle panniers, saddle bags and rucksacks.
Priding themselves on their waterproof technology Ortlieb bags will withstand water ingress even if the bag is submerged …though if you want to prove that yourself make sure you fold the rolltop over enough times. It’s quality, tried and tested cycling gear that will last you for years and that’s why Ortlieb panniers are sound investment.
The Ortlieb Classic Pannier pictured above is a best seller; available in red or blue and offering a capacity of 40l (pair). Here are some product ideas to get you started:

Halfords have released their latest weekly offers and there are a number of bicycle goodies to choose from. These offers expire end of business 7th July 2010 (unless stated otherwise)
Let’s start with the deal of 10% off all bike carriers. The Thule Xpress Pro 570 bike carrier for instance already has £30 off. This bike carrier has an ISO approved towbar coupling, carries 2 bikes, and fits most bike frames. It comes pre-assembled and folds flat for storage in your garage or bike shed.
I’ve not used a towball cycle carrier myself but I have frequently used a Thule cycle roof rack to cart my mountain bikes around. I found Thule to be of good quality, very strong and trouble free – I’m expecting it to last for years!
There’s 50% off all Reebok bikes. The range includes bikes for both girls and boys, BMX, mountain bikes and hybrid bikes.
And finally, the offer of 20% off selected Carrera bikes has been extended for this week. Again there’s a selection of bikes including hybrid and mens mountain bikes.
Fancy a bargain bike? Well, right now at Evans Cycles you’ll be able to pick up a bargain on a wide range of road bikes and mountain bikes in their Price Cuts sale. With yet another example of why buying last years model is such a good idea, the 2009 BMC Road Racer SL01 (pictured) has got a whopping £700 knocked off! The only downside with a previous years bike offer is typically sizing …you might not able to get the frame size you’re after because the popular sizes sell out quick. Don’t be tempted to buy a bike that’s not the right size for you. Too large a frame and you’ll have the seat post on minimum, it’ll look wrong and the reach could possibly be too long for you giving you poor handling and ride. Too small a frame and you’ll have issues with poor leg extension meaning you’ll be compromising on power output and your knees will suffer.
The bike above is just one of many bikes in the road bike offers – there’s savings upto 30% off. And if you’re after a new mountain bike for some off road dirty stuff then these off-roader deals are well worth a peruse. You’ll find up to 40% off Mondraker, eCommencal, Lapierre and Sunn bikes.
Floor pumps or track pumps are used to blow your bike tyres up (of course) and are ideal to have in your bike shed. Floor pumps are more effective than a traditional bike pump and make it easier to achieve higher pressures, especially in narrow race tyres.
AW Cycles are currently running a promotion on floor pumps and we’ve detailed the offers for you right here:
£19.99 was £24.99
£26.39 was £32.99
£27.99 was £34.99
£34.99
£35.99 was £44.99
£39.99
£55.99 was £69.99
£63.99 was £79.99
We’ve just received notification about these latest Halfords bike deals. All these offers are live on the site now and all expire end of business Wednesday 19th May 2010.
The mountain bike pictured above is the GT Aggressor XC 3 and currently is reduced down from £449.99 to £379.99 …a saving of £70!
Here are links to all the current bike deals:
I’ve not featured a single speed mountain bike on the site yet, so it’s about time I put that right.
Here we have a 2009 Charge Duster, on offer at wiggle with a 20% discount that’ll save you £120. If you’ve missed it, I’ve spoken before about why last years model bikes make such good deals and this is another cracking example.
I’ve got a couple of geared mountain bikes but I’m tempted to own a single speed trail bike like this one. Other than for the disc brakes this is quite a retro setup without any suspension. Here’s what one reviewer had to say about the bike:
I’ve not had this bike for long, but immediately see why it is so highly rated. It is simple, mountain biking in its purest form – awesome bike/love it! Go and try one for yourself.
Fancy one? Well find out more at wiggle.
