Looking around for any deals on the Gore Shakedry jacket. Either original or stretch.

After this year's Hilly Hundred, it moved up the priority purchase list.

I've used SimpleTire for a few sets and have been very happy with them, too.

They offer a lot of options that are lesser brands and I tend to think of tires as very important, so keep my search to the products that I know. For recommendation(s), TireRack is probably better, but SimpleTire offers a great value if you know what you want/they have something of interest.

I'll vouch for SimpleTire as well. They frequently run sales throughout the year on certain brands or site-wide.

Buying tires is almost as bad as buying a new car. Shady deals... fine print... sales manager... let me ask my boss...

Costco keeps is simple.

Looking to get some new hydro Ultegra or DuraAce shifters soon. Worth waiting to Black Friday or do they typically not go on sale?

Hi all,

Does anyone remember if Competitive Cyclist has Black Friday sales?

As always, thank you in advance!

If I recall, I think it was more like deals here and there on a couple items and the usual past season, odd color discounts etc, and not a global 20% off or anything.

I've had plenty of luck with Mavis tire honoring every single online price match out there. The only real caveats is that they'll need to be in stock, and they factor in the installation costs of other online places like TireRack and DiscountTireDirect. But if you get the tires from them they include lifetime rotation and changeover (if you run winters, which you should).

But for lower tire price DiscountTireDirect is the way to go.

I've got Mavis down the street from me and they've no-hassle / no gimmick matched a Walmart sale price, which was all-in about half of what the Mavis published price was. I didn't expect them to but figured I'd give it a shot.

I dislike having to play the price match game in the first place, but Mavis really wants your business.

CC often does 20% off "everything" sales, except to them, "everything" excludes Shimano, Enve, Chris King, and most other brands that people actually want to buy. And also doesn't stack with sale prices.
