While our Amazon Prime Day cycling deals hub has all the best deals from the world's biggest online megastore, the best cycling deals are actually to be had away from the clutches of Uncle Jeff. Amazon tends to focus on tech for its sale events - think Airpods, smartwatches, and bike computers - while actual cycling retailers tend to offer discounts concurrently on all sorts.

Luckily for you I've trawled all the usual suspects and found what I think are the best deals going, better than those on Amazon, split into USA and UK to make life even easier.

Pirelli PZero Race TLR Tyres:$99.99$74.95 at Mike's Bikes25% off 

Pirelli PZero Race TLR Tyres: $99.99 $74.95 at Mike's Bikes
25% off - A truly race ready set of tyres, tubeless ready too, and discounted in both the 26c and the likely more useful 28c width. 

Sportful Fiandre Norain arm warmers:$49.99$28.77 at Mike's Bikes42% off 

Sportful Fiandre Norain arm warmers: $49.99 $28.77 at Mike's Bikes
42% off - Get ready for Fall with a set of really decent arm warmers. These feature a great DWR coating that's basically the same as that found on Castelli's Nano Flex products, and can shrug off a moderate shower with ease. 

Cannondale SuperSix Evo Hi-Mod (2022):$13,049.99$9,199.95 at Mike's Bikes30% off 

Cannondale SuperSix Evo Hi-Mod (2022): $13,049.99 $9,199.95 at Mike's Bikes
30% off - Sure, you're going to need to be able to ride a size 60 bike, but if that is you then this could well be a mad deal. The geometry is identical to the latest version, so you're really not losing much in terms of performance by opting for an older model, and you're saving thousands of dollars.

BMC URS 01 Three:$7,199.99$4,289.95 at Mike's Bikes40% off 

BMC URS 01 Three: $7,199.99 $4,289.95 at Mike's Bikes

Garmin Varia rear radar:$200.00$149.99 at REI25% off 

Garmin Varia rear radar: $200.00 $149.99 at REI
25% off - One of the best things you can buy if you want to feel safer out on the road. The Varia is a rear facing radar that warns of approaching vehicles from the rear, along with how fast they are bearing down on you. It can even automatically brighten the built-in light when a vehicle is noticed to make you more visible. 

This is the older version, and while it lacks the built in camera that the latest one offers, it's actually a time where we probably think the older version is better.

Tacx Neo 2T Smart Trainer:$1,400$999.99 at REI28% off 

Tacx Neo 2T Smart Trainer: $1,400 $999.99 at REI
28% off - Up your indoor cycling setup with 2,200 watts of resistance (c'mon, that's enough for all of us!), and an accuracy of +/- 1%. The motor is quiet, and it includes either a SRAM or Shimano cassette. 

POC Myelin helmet:$100$49.93 at REI50% off 

POC Myelin helmet: $100 $49.93 at REI
50% off - Bike helmets are notoriously hard to recycle, with differing materials glued together. The POC Myelin, in order to tackle this, has been designed specifically to be recycled and uses no glue in its construction. One for the sustainable urbanist.

Specialized X Fjallraven Frame Bag:$100$59.93 at REI40% off 

Specialized X Fjallraven Frame Bag: $100 $59.93 at REI

WTB Nano gravel tyres: $76.95 $52.93 at REI
31% off - Given how knobby they look the Nano is a surprisingly fast rolling gravel tyre, especially in this version that has the light and fast casing. One to fit if you want a year round tyre that favours bite.

Altura Icon Jersey: £70.00 £56.00 at Tredz
20% off - A jersey fresh from our guide to the best cycling jerseys on the market, and a good buy at full price but not with a decent discount. A gravelly aesthetic and a relatively sturdy fabric make it prime for smashing doan musky bridleways.

Specialized Chisel hardtail: £2,300 £1,349 at Tredz
41% off - Yes, it's a mountain bike, but it's a hell of a deal, and it's available in both a medium and a large so will fit a good range of bodies. A whippy XC hardtail with a 12sp Sram NX Eagle drivetrain and a 100mm RockShox Judy fork make it prime for smashing laps at warp speed.

Pirelli PZero Race TLR tyres: £66.99 £39.99 at Tredz
40% off - This discount is only for those of you still clinging onto the 26c width, but given there are plenty of rim brake bikes out there it's worth shouting about. The PZero Race is a fast, grippy tyre, and at this price it's a cheap performance win.
