Swiss Iconic (outlet for Assos and a few other brands) has an extra 10% off from their newsletter.

But usually best deals are past-season, as referenced before. Biketiresdirect/WesternBikeWorks usually has good deals, as does BikeCloset, but not all sizes are available.

If you can find your size this is a great deal - I have these bibs and purchased them at near retail and worth every penny IMO.

Hayes (Reynolds wheels, SunRingle components) has started their 20% off sale, not bad considering you can purchase them from just about anywhere and they include lifetime warranty.

We all know looking pro is half the battle.

Can anyone speak to the different models of bibs on offer here? I have no familiarity with the options but definitely want to buy something!

Yup I’ve gotten most of my Assos stuff from bike closet. Absolutely love those guys. I’m mostly looking for the new S9 stuff. It’s just incredible.

Start here: https://www.pactimo.com/pages/cycling-bib-comparison

Their customer service is also good at explaining things but the above guide is excellent.

I would love a decade chain tool and a new pedal wrench but am having a hard time justifying them based on my current use patterns of my 20 year old pedros pedal wrench and nearly new Part CT3.2(used a dozen times in 2 years).

Hopefully a custom multi-tool is on the list of discounted items, if yes, I will be ordering one.

The MEN'S SUMMIT STRATOS "12-HOUR" BIBS have always been highly recommended everywhere I have read. Tons of 5 star reviews on their site. Almost $100 off means I’m going to try a pair.

Maybe not.

Pactimo: “At this time we do not offer shipping to Canada”. 😤
I might have to try using their freight forwarding services in their FAQ. I will figure it out tomorrow.
