I have a strong feeling that there are a few people who buy-up all the stock on PBK deals and resale on craigslist and ebay. 25mm gone....

hamfoh 07-23-11 02:27 PM

I also sent that deal to basically anyone who owned a bicycle.

Got an email from Competitive Cyclist and the Fizik Arione is on for $50 today. It doesn't look like the site has been updated with the new price yet though.

When I posted the deal there were only 6 of the 25mm left. I didn't order anything this time as I just put on a new set of gatorskins and have a couple new sets of GP4000s in my parts bin.

hmm still showing $60 for me, which I think they've had it priced at for a bit. still tempted

edit: sent them an e-mail about it. hopefully they change it. at under $60 shipped it's worth trying out!

cptsilver 07-24-11 10:12 PM

Also, I just noticed they've started to carry team kit for $34 :lol:

Wow, those look just like Chinese knockoffs in eBay. Horrible!

Curious about this saddle. The website says 225g. http://www.fizik.it/product.aspx?c=Arione The one on Competitive cyclist is 250g+. Not sure what is different...

Still $60...

hamfoh 07-26-11 10:09 AM

after I emailed them they changed the price of my order

The one on Competitive Cyclist has magnesium rails and is a takeoff from a production bike, not normally sold retail. The one on the website has "K:ium" rails which is some sort of alloy that is lighter.

I kind of want this saddle, but I think my butt requires the Aliante

Thanks! Tour10 wouldn't work for me, but I found another 10% code that did. VELONEWS10

23mm are in stock still.

XianRL 07-29-11 12:57 AM

Oh man, I have no need for an Affinity frameset, but I sure do want one.

philsci 07-29-11 03:39 PM

Ahhhh crap, I gotta stop reading this thread. Bought the cyclone in black. It'll make a great winter bike for the upcoming season I hope!

chenghiz 07-29-11 03:50 PM

It's a shame, the Cyclone is the only ugly frame they sell.

Totally ugly :( Stoked about the tire clearance though!

hamfoh 07-31-11 09:36 PM

just noticed that amazon has a few of the thomson stems (depending on the size/color you want) for $70+ they're prime eligible.

calbob76 08-01-11 07:05 PM

omnoms on sale on city grounds. does this mean the new version is coming soon?

hamfoh 08-01-11 07:42 PM

Thought September at the earliest? They probably just aren't moving at their newly gouged price. Why price them at $195 when you can list them at $250 and then say they're on sale for $195 :P

calbob76 08-01-11 10:12 PM

oh yeah haha that does make sense. I guess a lot of people do hike up the price of stuff and then sell it at reasonable prices and call it a sale. Thanks scrod for selling stuff at reasonable prices <3 [=

I wish Shimano pedals were compatible with Crank Bros cleats!

onezerozeroone 08-02-11 10:17 AM
