Black Friday bike deals 2024: The best cycling deals this 'Fake Friday'

Rapha Pro Team Gore-Tex Jacket: $325.00 $243.00 at Rapha
25% off - Not only does our Senior Tech Writer, Will Jones, rate this as the best road cycling waterproof jacket on the market having tried over 50, but it's also made with the soon to be discontinued old Gore-Tex Active membrane, meaning it may well be the best that waterproof cycling jackets ever get. At full price we recommend it wholeheartedly, and with  a quarter off it could well be the best deal of Black Friday already. Just remember you need to use the code BF2024 at checkout.

Wahoo Kickr V6: $1,299.99 $999.99 at Competitive Cyclist
23% off - At full price we think the Kickr V6 is just pipped to the 'best overall' spot by the Elite Justo 2. However, taking into account this $300 discount, we think the Kickr V6 is the best one to buy right now. It's already our top pick for anyone interested in racing indoors, and only really misses out on pedalling analysis.

Garmin Epix Gen 2: $899.99 $419.99 at Amazon
53% off - In the past couple of Amazon Prime Day events we've seen the Garmin Epix Gen 2 at lowest ever prices, and once again it's come down even further. This is the lowest we've ever seen the Epix 2, and with the mind boggling array of features - anything from basic sleep tracking through to cross country skiing dynamics - it's almost certainly one of the tech deals of Black Friday. 

Wahoo Kickr V6: $1,299.99 $999.99 at Competitive Cyclist
23% off - In our smart trainers' buying guide, the Kickr V6 was listed as a close runner-up to the Elite Justo 2, with the caveat that if you can find it on offer, then it's immediately the better one to buy. Here, with 23% off, it's down to under $1000, and although the Kickr Core is still a much cheaper option, if you want WiFi connectivity, increased accuracy, or folding legs, it's the one we'd recommend. 

Garmin Epix Gen 2: $899.99 $419.99 at Amazon
53% off - The Epix Gen 2 is easily one of the best on the market, and this is the cheapest it's ever been. We really like the integration of Garmin Pay and Spotify music, as well as the ability to create your own sports. 

Apple AirPods Pro 2: $249.00 $189.99 at Amazon
24% off - The top-tier wireless earbuds from the tech giant, these Pro 2 headphones offer noise cancelling tech, excellent sound quality, gesture control and more. This price is as good as we've seen them too. 

Sony WH-1000XM4: $348.00 $198.00 at Amazon
43% off - The 1000XM4 wireless noise cancelling headphones from Sony currently have a massive discount, and they're an incredibly popular pair of over-the-ear headphones. They have been cheaper before, but not by much, and we don't expect this price to budge a great deal downwards. 

Apple AirPods 2nd Gen: $129.99 $89.00 at Amazon
Save 23% - The 2nd Gen of the base model AirPods might have a slightly less premium sound quality and come with a slightly shorter feature list compared to the Pro, but if you're after a more affordable option, they're still a great pair.

GoPro Hero12 Black: $399.99 $299.99 at Amazon
25% off - The GoPro Hero12 has been replaced by the 13, but it's still full of bells and whistles. If you're after a basic action camera, there are plenty of deals on older GoPro Hero models at Amazon.

Echelon Connect EX5 Smart Connect Bike: $1,199.99 $899.99 at Echelon
25% off - An impressive discount on the Echelon EX5 for US readers, with the current spring discount offered on Echelon. There are 32 manually adjustable resistance levels, so you can set yourself up to follow Echelon's online classes. Its biggest competitor is the Peloton Bike, which is a touch more expensive. Factor in the yearly Echelon plan to your buying decision though.

S-Works Evade 3 Mips Helmet: $299.99 $209.99 at Competitive Cyclist
30% off - Awarded the best overall helmet in both our guide to the best aero helmets and best road bike helmets, the Evade III is my favourite by far. It tested as the fastest road helmet (excluding the wild TT-styled Poc Procen Air) in our wind tunnel helmet test. It is reasonably lightweight. It's also well vented, comfy, and looks super stylish. 

Giro Empire SLX Cycling Shoes: $374.95 $179.99 at Competitive Cyclist
52% off - The Empire SLX lace-up shoes are quite possibly the most comfortable cycling shoes on the market. They come with adjustable-arch insoles and are pretty lightweight too. They're generally quite an expensive pair, in line with the most premium options, but this discount brings that down by over half!

Gorewear C5 GORE-TEX INFINIUM Thermo Jacket: $220.00 $154.00 at Competitive Cyclist
30% off - The C5 Infinium Thermo jacket is one of the best winter cycling jackets on the market, according to our expert team of product testers. The high neck is super comfortable, as is the fleecy material on the inner face. It's available in multiple colours here, with varying discounts up to 30% off. 

Gorewear C5 GORE-TEX Thermo Gloves: $90.00 $67.50 at Competitive Cyclist
25% off - The C5 gloves are the best overall gloves in our winter cycling gloves buying guide. We really liked the fit, the hardwearing exterior and the high-vis option. They're not cheap at their full price but they've been given a nice saving here. 

Assos Mille GT Ultraz EVO Winter Jacket: $369.00 $295.20 at Competitive Cyclist
20% off - The Mille GT Ultraz jacket received a perfect 5 star review from our expert test team. We especially liked its ability to wick away sweat on hard winter rides, as well as the quality pockets. Even at this price, it's not a cheap jacket, but if you want to ride in comfort this winter, it's an investment you won't regret. 

Giro Aether Spherical helmet: $299.95 $149.98 at Competitive Cyclist
50% off - A highly renowned helmet with MIPS Spherical safety tech used at the highest level. We gave it a full five stars in our Giro Aether MIPS review, so to get it at this price is a great deal. The deal is limited to size S though.

Specialized Torch Road Shoes: $120.00 $59.99 at Specialized
50% off - The Torch 1.0 is Specialized's entry-level road shoe. It borrows trickle-down tech from the multitude of performance road shoes in the brand's range. It represents good value for money at retail price, with a comfortable ride that's stiff enough to get the power down when required, but without causing hotspots.

Giro Republic R Knit Road Cycling Shoes: $149.95 $74.98 at Competitive Cyclist
50% off - Giro was the first major shoe firm to revert to lace-up shoes and its knit Republic shoes continue the trend. The laces ensure even pressure distribution over the forefoot and the knit fabric offers great ventilation and comfort on hot rides. They're not the cheapest shoes on the market, but they're the ones to go for if you're worried about comfort and are riding indoors or in warmer climates.

3T Exploro Race Force AXS: $5,499.00 $3,099.00 at Jenson USA
44% off - The Exploro Race is a progressive gravel bike with a Force AXS 2x groupset, carbon wheels, clearance for up to 61mm tyres, and aero tubes. Two of its stablemates, the original Exploro and the Extrema Italia were both reviewed favourably by our tech team, and we'd happily recommend this one too. The lower spec 3T Exploro Racemax Rival is discounted even more too. 

Orbea Avant H40 road bike: $1,899.00 $1,037.00 at Jenson
45% off - The Avant H40 is a budget-friendly road bike with an alloy frame designed for comfort over long distances. It's equipped with a Shimano Tiagra 2x10 speed groupset, mechanical disc brakes and 28mm tyres. It's not the most premium spec, but it's a great platform to upgrade over time if you want to save money now. 

Specialized Aethos Expert Ultegra: $7,700.00 $4,594.94 at Jenson
40% off - One of the most popular bike launches in the past few years, the lightweight Aethos is refreshingly designed for everyday riding, not for racing. I love the way it rides, and personally love this dark green colourway. The Roval C38 wheels and Ultegra Di2 groupset are additional positive points, and the 40% reduction is the icing on a very tasty cake. 

Co-op Cycles Generation e1.1 Electric Bike: $1,499.00 $898.93 at REI
Save 40% - The Co-op e1.1 is a clever Class 1 city e-bike that is easy to ride, nicely manoeuvrable on tight pathways, and boasts a 350w motor that'll go for 30-40 miles. Complete with 20in wheels wrapped in 2.4in tyres and a front suspension fork, it'll handle rough surfaces when required and can carry your luggage on the large rear rack.

Cervelo Aspero AXS Exclusive: $4,300 $2,900 at Competitive Cyclist
33% off - The Aspero Apex AXS is a racy gravel bike from Cervelo. There's actually a handful of different Aspero 5 models on offer, with different specs and price points, but this particular model is our pick, at 25% off in a good range of sizes.

Time Xpresso 4 Pedals: $90.00 $45.00 at Jenson
50% off - Time pedals are known for being lightweight, with a big pedalling platform. The Xpresso 4 are the most affordable in the range, and at 50% off that is only improved further. A great option for a low-cost entry to clipless pedals. 

Unior Euro Multi-Tool: $26.99 $10.79 at Competitive Cyclist
60% off - The Unior Euro multi-tool features in our best bike multi-tools buyers guide. It has a lovely in-hand feel and super smooth folding action. There are a range of versions here with between 55% and 60% off.

Silca Nastro Piloti Bar Tape: $50.00 $37.50 at Competitive Cyclist
25% off - This premium Silca Nastro Piloti tape currently has 25% off in the white colourway, a great way to freshen up your bike for spring.

Rapha Pro Team Gore-Tex Jacket: £275.00 £206.25 at Rapha
25% off - This is the best waterproof cycling jacket on the market according to our Senior Tech Writer, Will Jones, who has tested in the region of 50 in the last few years. Not only that, but its Gore-Tex membrane is being replaced with one that is better for the environment, but worse in terms of protection, so it's as good as it's ever going to get. With a discount like this it's likely the deal of the whole Black Friday event. 

Features in - Best waterproof cycling jackets

Garmin Epix Gen 2: £619.99 £390.00 at Amazon
37% off - While it isn't the same mega discount you get if you live in the USA, this is the cheapest the Epix 2 has ever been in the UK. If you want to bag what is all but the best smartwatch Garmin makes now is absolutely the time to do so. I can't see it dropping any lower than this. In terms of features it has all you could ever neer, and then some. Sleep tracking and stress monitoring, hydration metrics, all the way through to things like skiing analysis. 

GoPro HERO13 Black: £399.99 £339.99 at Amazon
15% off - It's a relatively modest saving compared to some, but it is rare that GoPro knocks down prices on its top end cameras, tending to stick to discounting the lower models instead. The HERO13 Black is the best of the best, and if you want some tasty on-bike footage in all weathers then it's got to be on your list. It's also a tenner cheaper than it was last week too, so definitely one to keep your eye on. 

GoPro HERO13 Black: £399.99 £349.99 at Amazon
15% off - The Hero 13 is the latest action camera from GoPro, complete with 5.3K video, 27MP photos, 10m waterproofing, great run time, incredible stabilisation, and compatibility with interchangeable lenses for even more shooting power. 

DJI Osmo Action 4: £379.00 £199.00 at Amazon
47% off - You don't have to stick to GoPro nowadays for excellent action cams. This DJI sees a lot of use from Senior Tech Writer Will Jones, and he thinks it's easily as good as the equivalent GoPro, with an easier app too. 

Magicshine SEEMEE300 rear light: £59.99 £41.79 at Amazon
30% off - We rate this as the best rear light on the market, straight from our guide to the best bike lights. It's got a whopping 200 hour battery life, smark brake sensor, and a downward projecting LED light for 360 degree visibility. 

Cateye AMPP900 front light: £78.49 £65.99 at Amazon
16% off -  Another pick from our guide to the best bike lights, and while the discount is modest it is a light we rate as the best budget option already. An easy mount compatible with most bars - even aero bars - and added side visibility help keep you safe. 

Garmin Epix Gen 2: £619.99 £390.00 at Amazon
37% off - It's not as good as discount as you'd get in the states, but this is as cheap as the near range-topping Epix 2 has ever been in the UK. It's god every feature you could ever want and is about as good as smartwatches get.

Pinnacle HC Smart trainer: £700.00 £210.00 at Evans
70% off - Offering 2500 watts of resistance, 20% gradients, and accuracy within 2%, this is a well-specced smart trainer. At its usual retail price it's outshone by the Wahoo Kickr Core but thanks to this Evans Cycles deal, it's easily the best-value smart trainer available right now.

Garmin Edge 1040 GPS Solar: £630.00 £561.30 at Sigma Sport
11% off - The Edge 1040 Solar, like the standard Edge 1040, comes with a massive touchscreen, smartphone responsiveness, 70-hour battery life, and the ability to track every metric you're ever likely to need, but it also adds solar panels to the screen, meaning it will charge while you ride.

Garmin Fenix 7X Solar: £649.99.99 £427.00 at Amazon
31% Off - Down to its best-ever price, if you're looking to treat yourself to an absolutely feature-packed smartwatch, I don't think you'll find a better watch at this price (or a better price for this watch). This isn't the cheapest we have ever seen this model, but the 20% off still represents a good deal.

Castelli Espresso GT gloves: £140.00 £109.00 at Sigma Sports
22% off - Described as the 'best all-around performance gloves' in our best winter cycling gloves guide, the Espresso GT might not be the cheapest gloves around, but they're certainly worth it, given the protection and comfort they offer. This discount will help a little on the price too!

Gorewear C5 Thermo jacket: £200.00 £79.00 at Sigma Sports
60% off - One of the best winter cycling jackets as featured in our guide. We really like this as a high-performance product for hard riding. The only gripe is the narrow pockets sit quite high on the back, but the collar is excellent and the brushed fleece lining feels plush against the skin.

Castelli Perfetto Ros 2 short sleeve: £185.00 £98.00 at Sigma Sports
47% off - As race-ready winter-friendly jerseys go, Castelli was the pioneer and the Perfetto Ros 2 is a great product. The short sleeves might make it less versatile, but given the unseasonably warm-but-wet autumn we're having so far, it the conditions couldn't be more suited to it. 

Giro Aries MIPS Spherical helmet: £299.00 £199.00 at Sigma Sports
33% off - The Aries MIPS is a revered road helmet, used by the Visma-Lease a Bike team. It tested well in our wind tunnel helmet test and features in our buying guide as the runner-up, only coming behind the Evade III. 

Specialized S-Works Evade 3 helmet: £250.00 £150.00 at Sigma Sports
40% off - Our pick as the best road bike helmet on the market, the Evade III came second in our wind tunnel test - beaten only by the wild-looking POC Procen Air. It's well vented, super comfy, lightweight and it looks great. It's usually quite an expensive helmet but this deal brings the cost down a bit. 

Universal Colours Mono SS jersey: £120.00 £45.00 at Sigma Sports
63% off - It might be the wrong time of year to think about summer jerseys, but this might be one to buy now while it's cheap ahead of next summer. The Mono jersey features nice modern long sleeves, a good torso fit, and is made using environmentally-friendly BlueSign fabrics. 

Castelli Entrata bib shorts: £99.00 £54.00 at Sigma Sports
45% off - A more entry-level bib short, don't be fooled into thinking the Entrata is low quality. Castelli's reputation as one of the best in the business doesn't come without merit. The Kiss Air2 seat pad is a favourite of multiple testers here in the CN team, and the overall fit of the Entrata is comfortable, lightly compressive and true to size. 

Universal Colours Mono LS jersey: £120.00 £60.00 at Sigma Sports
50% off - The Mono long sleeve jersey is currently available with 40% off in six different colours, or a slightly lower discount in another two. Befitting of the brand's reputation, it is a stylish, comfortable and well-equipped jersey with recycled fabrics, reflective details and a compressive but stretchy fit that works with all body types. 

Universal Colours Mono socks: £14.00 £5.00 at Sigma Sports
64% off - A pretty simple set of socks, but a good one nonetheless. The biggest discount is in the gold colourway, but there are plenty of options here in multiple sizes. 

Cannondale Synapse Carbon 4: £2,400.00 £1,449.00 at Sigma Sports
40% off - The Synapse Carbon 4 comes with Shimano's 10-speed Tiagra groupset, alloy wheels and a carbon fibre frame built for long-distance comfort. It might not be the highest level of spec, but it will be easy to maintain, stand the test of time, and it'll be a great platform to upgrade when the time comes. 

Specialized Roubaix SL8 Comp Disc: £4,250.00 £2,999.00 at Sigma Sports
29% off - The Roubaix SL8 Comp Disc comes with a Shimano 105 Di2 groupset, alloy wheels and tech-filled carbon frame that's designed to maximise compliance. It's available in most sizes, and the biggest discount comes in this dark blue colourway. 

Cannondale Synapse Carbon 3: £1,100.00 £799.00 at Sigma Sports
27% off - A budget-friendly version of an excellent platform, the Synapse 3 is made from aluminium, with mechanical disc brakes and a Shimano Sora groupset. At under £800, the spec isn't going to set the world alight, but Shimano is well respected so you can trust it'll be well made.

Cervélo S5 Force eTap: £9,599.00 £6,299.00 at Sigma Sports
34% off - This very bike, the S5 with Force eTap was among the fastest bikes in our recent wind tunnel superbike test. At zero yaw - common at high speeds - it was the outright fastest. It's not the cheapest of bikes, but it's ready to race from the box, and currently has over a third off. 

Specialized Tarmac SL7 Sport 105: £3,250.00 £1,999.00 at Sigma Sports
38% off - The Tarmac SL7 is one of the most popular bikes around. This one comes with Shimano's 105 mechanical groupset, alloy wheels and a semi-integrated front end. It's available in all sizes at the time of writing, in three colours, with a very healthy discount of 38%. 

Cannondale Topstone Carbon 3: £3,200.00 £1,899.00 at Sigma Sports
41% off - The Topstone is a do-it-all gravel bike. It's targeted more towards the adventure end of the spectrum but from personal experience I know it can race well too. It's equipped with Shimano's GRX 12-speed groupset, WTB wheels and tyres, and the comfort-enhancing carbon frame. 

Cervélo S5 Red eTap: £12,500.00 £7,999.00 at Sigma Sports
36% off - Want one of the very best bikes on the market right now? The Cervelo S5 aero bike with the latest Red AXS groupset, Reserve wheels and Vittoria tyres has to be up there, and with over a third off, it's now a smidge under £8000. That's still a big chunk of cash, I know, but anyone on the hunt for a class-leading bike in every regard will know such a wishlist will usually cost around £12k. 

Cervélo Soloist Rival eTap: £4,999.00 £2,899.00 at Sigma Sports
42% off - The Soloist is a great all-rounder road bike with WorldTour chops and decent tyre clearance. It's equipped with SRAM's Rival AXS groupset, Fulcrum wheels and Vittoria tyres. All of which are well respected by our testers. 

Cannondale CAAD Optimo 2: £1,150.00 £699.00 at Sigma Sport
39% off - The CAAD Optimo 2 is an entry-level road bike perfect for beginners or those on a budget. It comes with an alloy frame, and a 10-speed Shimano Tiagra groupset, and is available in 51,54, 56 and 58cm sizes.

Orbea Orca M31 Team: £4,599 £2,999.00 at Sigma Sports
35% off - This Orbea Orca has a decent discount in sizes 51 and 55. For under 3.5k you're getting a solid carbon frame and fork, integrated cockpit and wireless, electronic Sram Rival AXS groupset.
