Thanks also. Went to Forest Hill and Box Hill after work, unfortunately both had next to no cycling clothing, though Forest Hill did have the warmer jacket in a number of sizes but not marked down. Actually felt like it would be too warm even in the middle of winter!greyhoundtom wrote:BigW and Guy Leech clothing.
I ended with one $5 jersey for commuting duty and 1 pair shy shorts for $25. Other gear included a pair of budgy smugglers for $5 and two general sports shorts for cheap...

You are right the jacket is designed to be very warm, but then I don't mind wearing some of my cycling gear while fishing in the freezing cold wind the extra pockets come in handy, and I find that even an old pair of padded knicks worn under my jeans make it much more comfortable to sit no matter what you are sitting on.dalai47 wrote:Forest Hill did have the warmer jacket in a number of sizes but not marked down.

I own one myself, couldn't be happierTank1252 wrote:Great info re the Fly6. I've been thinking about getting one for a while. The 99bikes price is the best i've seen, & that 32GB card from Officeworks is a great price too. Does anyone own a new version of the fly6? I'm interested in the size of it. I'm a little on the vertically challenged side & don't have a huge amount of seat post to play with!

Fly6 is a great idea and very cool. When the price starts to approximate a realistic level I will definitely buy one, until then I'll stick to my $30 cheapo flasher and hope nobody hits me from behind.

Trek 7.2 2014 $550 price match at Melbourne Bicycle Centre, be quick!
I think that this is a deal at least for Victoria since the only retailers offering this bicycle at the same price or even for less on bikeexchange are located in Queensland, they also tell nothing about availability so the search results might be outdated.
Melbourne Bicycle Centre also has 20% off on some accessories.
My advice is to always go to the shop and not only relaying on web results.

Which is quite annoying since Ive spent $20 on two separate orders since Christmas there which are exactly the same price as they are now and I could of waited. Geez I'm impatient as I knew free shipping would of eventually come up ( like now!)

I bought loads of gear from c r c last year but there doesn't appear to be too many bargains on there now. I just ordered over at Ribble, most of what I bought was better priced (and order was above threshold for free shipping anyway).rodneycc wrote:Free shipping at c r c...

Through forgetfulness and coincidence of course... Not a deliberate defrauding of Customs and the ATO...dominicj wrote:Ribble have had their 6800 and 6870 individual components at a price where you can put together a full group for that sort of money for months now. Free shipping and you can split it into two orders to avoid fees and tax.
