Black Friday Cycling Deals 2026
The deals and codes we’d actually point a mate towards. Fewer picks, every price checked and an honest word on what to skip.
Black Friday 2026 is Friday 27 November, with Cyber Monday on the 30th. Stamford Cycling offers work right now and all year: 20% off Strava annual, 10% off Yellow Jersey insurance and five free weeks of ROUVY. The best indoor deal we’ve verified is the Wahoo KICKR CORE 2 bundle at £449.99. Everything else stays on our watch list until we’ve checked the price ourselves.

Five offers with prices we’ve checked ourselves. Tap any of them for the full details, who it suits and who should skip it.
Club Discount Codes That Work All Year
These aren’t Black Friday specials that vanish by Tuesday. They’re the offers we’ve set up for the club, and anyone can use them. Two are sent by email rather than printed here, because that’s how the brands have asked us to share them.
Strava annual subscription
20% off your first year
Checked 4 Nov 2026 · Works all year
- Why we rate it
- The whole club runs on it. Every route lives in our Strava club, every Sunday Social is an event you can RSVP to, and the segments keep things gently competitive. If you’re going to pay for it anyway, don’t pay full price.
- Good to know
- For new subscribers on an annual plan. Redeem it on the Strava website, not in the app. The discount covers your first year.
- Skip if
- You only record rides and never use routes or segments. The free version does that fine.
Yellow Jersey cycle insurance
10% off your policy
Checked 4 Nov 2026 · Works all year
- Why we rate it
- If Black Friday means a new bike, it’s worth sorting cover before it’s leaning against the hallway wall. Yellow Jersey is a UK specialist cycle insurer, and our riders get 10% off.
- Good to know
- We’re not an insurance broker and this isn’t advice. Read the policy wording, and check what your home insurance already covers before you buy.
- Skip if
- Your home insurance already covers your bike away from home for what it’s worth.
ROUVY indoor cycling
A 7-day trial plus your first month free
Checked 4 Nov 2026 · Works all year
- Why we rate it
- It’s where our Thursday evening ride lives now the light’s gone, so you’ll have company. Riding real-world video routes makes an hour on the turbo go a lot quicker than staring at the garage wall.
- Good to know
- We earn nothing from the trial itself, only if you decide to keep paying afterwards. Set a reminder if you don’t want it to roll on.
- Skip if
- You haven’t got a turbo trainer yet. Sort that first, then come back for the trial.
Ride with us and there’s more
Once you’ve done a couple of rides, we share a few extra codes in the club WhatsApp group. They’re not public, but here’s what’s in there. The club’s free and no-drop, so the only cost is getting up on a Sunday.
- 20% offTwo Chimps Coffee
- 20% offVeloforte
- 15% offRuff and Tumble
- 20% offTICC Clothing
Best Black Friday Turbo Trainer Deals
Our Thursday evening ride moved indoors onto ROUVY in mid-October, and with the clocks gone back, most of us are thinking about the turbo again. These are the two setups we’d look at first. Both come with 10% off through our link, and the discount’s applied in the basket, so there’s no code to fiddle with.
Wahoo KICKR CORE 2 with Zwift Cog & Click
10% off through our ROUVY shop link
Checked 4 Nov 2026
- Why we rate it
- A direct-drive trainer you can leave set up in the corner: bike on, ride, bike off. The Cog & Click setup puts a single cog on the trainer that suits most road bikes, so swapping bikes is less faff.
- Good to know
- Similar 10% pricing has been listed direct from Zwift too, so it’s worth a quick compare. Buy wherever the after-sales suits you.
- Skip if
- You’ve got a wheel-on trainer that works fine and you ride indoors once a month. Try the ROUVY trial on that first.
Zwift Ride V2 with KICKR CORE 2 (ROUVY Edition)
10% off through our ROUVY shop link
Checked 4 Nov 2026
- Why we rate it
- A dedicated indoor bike that sits on the KICKR CORE 2, so your road bike stays clean and ready for Sundays. It suits riders who’ll be on it two or three times a week all winter.
- Good to know
- Similar pricing has been listed direct from Zwift, so compare before you buy. If you saw it at £899 in October, that festival price ended on 18 October.
- Skip if
- You haven’t got the floor space, or you’ll only ride indoors now and then. A trainer for your own bike does the job for less than half the money.
Bought a trainer? Come and ride it with us. Thursdays at 7pm on ROUVY, free and friendly, with an optional video call from 6:50pm if you fancy a natter before you clip in.
How to join on ThursdaysBlack Friday Winter Kit We’re Watching
Since the clocks went back, our Sunday rides set off a little later to make the most of the light. You’ll still meet grey mornings, wet lanes out towards Ketton and Collyweston, and the odd tractor’s worth of mud. This is the kit we’d buy for that, and we’ll add specific deals here once we’ve checked the prices ourselves.
Front and rear lights
- What we look for
- A front light you can actually see with on unlit lanes
- A rear that’s bright in daylight, not just after dark
- USB-C charging and honest run times
- A mount that won’t rattle loose
- Good to know
- The Highway Code (rule 60) says you must have white front and red rear lights lit at night, plus a red rear reflector and amber pedal reflectors on bikes made after October 1985.
Mudguards
- What we look for
- Enough clearance for your tyre width
- Full guards if your frame has eyelets, clip-ons if it doesn’t
- A long rear flap for whoever’s on your wheel
- Good to know
- We don’t make anyone fit them. But the rider behind you on a wet Sunday will quietly love you if you do.
Overshoes and gloves
- What we look for
- Overshoes sized to your actual shoe size
- Windproof gloves that still let you work the shifters
- A thinner pair for those bright, cold mornings
- Good to know
- Cold hands and feet end more winter rides than tired legs. This is where a small spend goes furthest.
Gilets, jerseys and base layers
- What we look for
- A windproof gilet that packs into a pocket
- A long-sleeve jersey with a decent collar
- A merino or synthetic base layer
- Good to know
- Layers beat one big jacket. When the sun finally turns up near Empingham, you can peel one off.
Black Friday Garmin Deals: Which Edge to Watch
Garmin launched the Edge 1060 on 20 October, which usually means the model it replaces starts getting cheaper. Here’s how the current range stacks up, with launch prices so you can tell a real deal from a dressed-up one.
I personally can’t live without my Garmin 540. I’ve set it up so it works with my Shimano 105 Di2 and can control the screens from my shifters. Here’s how I set it up.
| Model | Screen and controls | Launch price | Best for | Black Friday |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Edge 550 | 2.7in bright screen, buttons only | £379.99 | Riders who set it up once and mostly record rides | Watching |
| Edge 850 | 2.7in touchscreen plus buttons | £469.99 | Most road riders who charge it after each ride | Watching |
| Edge 1060 | 3.5in touchscreen plus buttons, voice control | £699.99 | Big-screen navigation and longer battery life | Brand new, so don’t expect much off |
The one we’d keep an eye on
The outgoing Edge 1050 is already being discounted. If you want a big screen without paying launch money, that’s where we’d expect the best Black Friday price.
A good deal is one that’s lower than it’s been all autumn, not just lower than the launch price. Check the price history before you click buy.
Worth a look too: rear radar
A radar rear light tells you when a car’s coming up behind on the narrow lanes, and it doubles as a bright daytime rear light. If you’re choosing between a new computer and a radar this winter, it’s a fair question to ask.

Shimano and Wear Parts: Stock Up, Don’t Splurge
Black Friday is a good time to buy the boring bits you’ll need anyway. Winter grit chews through drivetrains, and a spare chain and brake pads in the drawer can save a Sunday.
What to check before you buy
- ChainsMatch your drivetrain’s speed. A 12-speed chain won’t play nicely on an 11-speed bike, and a cheap chain checker tells you when it’s time.
- CassettesOnly if a stretched chain has worn the cassette too. Check the speed and the range you’re running.
- Brake padsRim or disc, and for discs, resin or metal. Check what your calipers take before you add to basket.
- TyresA bit more puncture protection makes sense on gritty winter lanes. Check your frame clearance before going wider.
Running Di2?
The 105 Di2 shifters run on CR1632 coin cells, and they’re surprisingly hard to find in Stamford. Black Friday’s a good time to put a spare pack in the drawer. Here’s how I replaced mine, and how to check your Di2 battery level.
Action Camera Deals for Filming Club Rides
What I learned filming two club rides
In July I filmed two club rides with a DJI Osmo Action 6 and a DJI Mic 3, with my phone as backup. The honest takeaway: you can film a ride or enjoy it, not both.
Action cameras and mics
- What we look for
- Bundles that include spare batteries (you’ll need them)
- A mic with a windshield for the faster stretches
- A mount you trust on a bumpy lane
- Skip if
- You just want a nice ride on a Sunday. Leave the camera at home.
Black Friday Cycling Deals We’d Skip
Not every Black Friday price is a bargain. When Which? tracked 208 Black Friday products, 98% were the same price or cheaper at some point in the six months either side. So here’s what we’d leave in the basket.
- A full indoor bike when you’ll ride indoors once a monthTry the free ROUVY trial on what you’ve already got. If you’re still on it in January, then upgrade.
- A “saving” against a price nobody ever paidIf the “was” price is an RRP the product never really sold at, the saving isn’t real. Check what it cost in October.
- Unbranded lights with huge lumen claimsIf a £15 light says 2,000 lumens, it doesn’t. Buy a known brand with honest run times.
- A new bike in the wrong size because it’s 40% offA bike that doesn’t fit is the most expensive deal on the internet. Get measured, or ask a local shop first.
- A top-end computer just to follow the odd routeIf you mostly record rides and follow a route now and then, an Edge 550 or 850 does it all for less.
- A year’s supply of energy gelsThey go out of date, and you’ll find a flavour you hate. Buy enough for the winter.

How We Pick These Deals
The offers marked Ad come from brands we’ve partnered with as an affiliate partner. We only partner with brands whose products we use in the club, so what you see here is kit we know from our own rides, not a round-up of whatever happens to be on sale.
Kit we know
We’re an affiliate partner of the brands behind our Ad offers, and we use their products in the club, from planning every route on Strava to our Thursday ride on ROUVY. So you’re getting kit we know, not kit we’ve read about. Anything still waiting on a good price sits on our watch list, marked Watching.
Prices we’ve seen
Every price is checked on the retailer’s own page before it goes up. “Normal price” means what it usually sells for. If we can’t verify a saving, we don’t show one.
Updated or taken down
Deals move fast in November. If a price changes or an offer ends, we update it or take it down, and the date at the top changes too.
Ad means Ad
Links marked Ad may earn us commission. It never changes your price and never decides what makes the list. It does help keep every club ride free.
