Altura Mayhem Full Finger Gloves
These are a bargain at £13.01 at time of posting, I own a pair and I have to say they are my favourite autumn gloves (which I still wear under warmer gloves in winter)… OK, I’m trying to resist filling my drawer with them, my other gloves have cost a lot more and aren’t any better.
I’ve just bought some new waterproof ( I hope ) gloves, they are Outeredge Winter gloves. Getting ready for wintery commutes, I’ve joined the cyclescheme at work, and waiting for the clothing, tyres and tools to arrive by post.
Do you own winter tyres for the icy roads? Well worth getting if not.
The ones I’ve ordered are Continental Top Contact Winter II tyres, they’re not studded, but cost £99.99 for the pair, so I’m going to give them a go. The cyclescheme is great, I’ve ordered £300 worth, but pay back through monthly salary sacrifice before tax and national insurance, so will save by a discount of 25%. Anyway it saves me dishing out cash up front, and I ordered all of it from the clearance zone at Tredz online, so some of the gear was already discounted, 31% in the case of the jacket I ordered. Though I was a bit miffed Tredz slapped 10% back on the discounts, because they said Cyclescheme charges them 10% for sales generated through the scheme. It didn’t happen with Evans Cycles last year, but they didn’t have what I was looking for in their clearance this time around. But I’m happy enough, and hopefully I am getting some real bargains, especially if it all performs well. Cheers.
I’m keen to hear how the tyres perform, best of luck and maybe you’ll post a review if they are worth the money and indeed definitely a good rant if they aren’t 🙂
