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....

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!

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

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

Still $60...

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.

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

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

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

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 [=
