I've had two pairs of their cycling socks since around 2007, and one of the pairs is finally starting to showing signs of a tiny hole. Incredible value, and possibly the strongest and most indestructible socks I've owned in my life! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14502#post-214557 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 08:36:16 +0000 paddyirish 214557@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@gembo - agreed on both the pump and stand, but sadly also the child labour.</p> <p>Ethical cycle gear/ clothing is one for another thread -I'll start one up. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14502#post-214556 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 08:14:59 +0000 gembo 214556@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The stand and the pump are great prices, dependent on child labour factors in developing world / China. However most dearer products also contain this factor. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14502#post-214554 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 08:03:48 +0000 paddyirish 214554@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>This year's is on <a href="http://www.lidl.co.uk/en/our-offers-2491.htm?id=795">Monday</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14502#post-187585 Sun, 03 May 2015 21:57:38 +0000 chdot 187585@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"</p> <p>Iain Whyte (@CllrWhyte)<br /> 03/05/2015 21:36<br /> @CyclingEdin @SpokesLothian do your own bicycle maintenance?

I got myself a pump and workstand last night. Both are much sturdier than I imagined from the pictures on the website. I am looking forward to more comfortable maintenance sessions on my bike. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14502#post-183343 Mon, 16 Mar 2015 11:43:52 +0000 paddyirish 183343@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Got a softshell and some socks at Dalry about 8.30 - not much take-up at that stage. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14502#post-183316 Mon, 16 Mar 2015 09:37:35 +0000 SRD 183316@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>MrSRD was first in queue at Dalry.

Would recommend. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14502#post-183134 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 16:38:00 +0000 crowriver 183134@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I would agree the mitts are good value. Not as comfy over distance as 'brand' mitts though (e.g. Spesh, Altura...). </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14502#post-183100 Thu, 12 Mar 2015 13:59:43 +0000 threefromleith 183100@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Mitts - love them! Never used any other brand since I started cycling in 2006. I have a pile of unworn ones as I used to buy a few pairs each time they came on sale. Their durability has meant that I still have almost all of them sitting unworn!</p> <p>Sure, a few pairs have come apart within a few months butt at a few quid a pop it's never been a disaster.</p> <p>Never had a smell issue with them like @dougal. Maybe an enzyme in my sweat kills it off? ;-) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14502#post-182950 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 14:41:44 +0000 dougal 182950@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>IME: </p> <p><ul><li>Mitts, good but with a funny smell that never washes out.</li><li>Bike computer, useless.</li></ul> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14502#post-182942 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 14:08:13 +0000 paddyirish 182942@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.lidl.co.uk/en/our-offers-2491.htm?id=508">On 16 March</a> </p>
