If you like or want to try EKOI Products (French Co. in Roubaix) - helmets, shoes, kit, a bunch of things.
they're nearing the end of a BIG sale on most everything - 50% to 60% off.
very, very reasonable shipping coming from overseas & no tax... I spent enough to get free shipping...

Return policy is also fantastic - as far as sizing goes, follow their size charts - they're pretty accurate. I purchased one of their jerseys and size was spot on, good quality.

^ That is a good deal, especially for us that need long (60 & 80) length valve stems. Much better price there than what I paid ($8 each) for Specialized 80mm valve length tubes a few months ago. At the time it was all I could find.

Bike Tires Direct has factory refurbed Garmin Edge 820s with 1 year Garmin warranties on sale for $150 today, 8/13/22.
I bought one a month ago for $190, and I'm happy with it. It's not perfect, and it uses more juice (about 1mile) than my old Lezyne, but it does more than my old basic Lezyne. Great display, great function. True, the touchscreen function sometimes misses, but pressing buttons don't always work as intended, either. Great price.

For the REI members: looks like Cannondales (with the exception of e-bikes) will be 20% off during their Labor Day sale, which seems not too shabby. If you have an REI credit card, the extra 5% back would make it an even better deal.

I don't know; the listed weight of the Prestacycle Uniblock 12-28 cassette seems to be significantly higher than that of its 11-28 cassette, which implies (at least to me) that this is real.
I have ordered a 11-27 cassette (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 19, 21, 24, 27) and e-mailed Prestacycle to request confirmation whether the 12-28 cassette is really that whack. I will keep you posted.

Shimano thinks an 11 speed, 12-28 cassette have these cogs: 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 28. Since Shimano has only deigned Dura-Ace buyers worthy of this combination, I do not have firsthand experience with this combination, but from riding an Ultegra 12-25 and doing my maths, I think this would be an ideal cassette for me. I hope that the Prestacycle Uniblock will happen to have the same gear ratios, because that makes the most sense in keeping the gaps between gears the same, but we shall see if Prestacycle responds to my inquiries after this long weekend.

I've been looking at the TLR two-pack. Very little on them, either way - just a few user comments on other forums. Feel and perceived rolling resistance has been positive. I've only seen one person report on mileage and they said that it was relatively poor (1500km, IIRC), Take that with a grain of salt, of course - some people toss their tires when there's a hint of squaring on the rear. I might pick up some of the TLRs, but I won't be riding them before spring, regardless.
I suppose a start would be to compare to maybe the Rene Herse Cayuse Extralights or the older Panaracer L Evo3s?

At that price, it definitely looks like something that might be worth trying.

I paid full price for my H3 a few years back. The GF and I both have them. Works great.
