Whilst a lot of focus has been on the Amazon Prime Day sales for the last day or so, there are still plenty of other good deals to be found out there at the moment. 

Competitive Cyclist has a sizeable sale on at the moment and I've taken some time to take a look at some of the winter cycling kit on offer as we head into the fall and winter time, depending on where you live in the world. Sometimes the right piece of winter kit can really boost your motivation and get you out and on the bike. 

Rapha Pro Team Training bibtights$250 $200 at Competitive Cyclist

Rapha Pro Team Training bibtights: $250 $200 at Competitive Cyclist
For milder temperatures, these are my favourite bibtights. Incredibly light, super comfortable and deceptively warm, plus they are really stylish. On the Rapha site they are now the 'Pro Team lightweight tights' but are the same product.

Want to take things up a notch in cold weather? The GT Ultraz bibtights also feature in our best cycling bibtights guide.

Wear it with a base layer in warmer temperatures, layer up underneath and it will look after you in sleet and snow.

Gore-Tex Shakedry jacket$300$225 at Competitive Cyclist

Gore-Tex Shakedry jacket: $300 $225 at Competitive Cyclist
Something of a curve ball to finish up with, the C7 Shake Dry jacket from Gore-Tex has been discontinued but is arguably the best rain jacket ever made. Superlight, with fantastic water resistance. If you want a quality rain jacket, grab one while they are still around as they're never going to be made again.

Tech writer

Tom joined the Cyclingnews team in late 2022 as a tech writer. Despite having a degree in English Literature he has spent his entire working life in the cycling industry in one form or another. He has over 10 years of experience as a qualified mechanic, with the last five years before joining Cyclingnews being spent running an independent workshop. This means he is just as happy tinkering away in the garage as he is out on the road bike, and he isn’t afraid to pull a bike apart or get hands-on with it when testing to really see what it’s made of. 

He has ridden and raced bikes from an early age up to a national level on the road and track, and has ridden and competed in most disciplines. He has a keen eye for pro-team tech and enjoys spotting new or interesting components in the wild. During his time at Cyclingnews, Tom has already interviewed some of the sport's biggest names including Mathieu van der Poel, Tadej Pogačar and Alberto Contador. He's also covered various launches from brands such as Pinarello, Ridley, Specialized and more, tackled the Roubaix Challenge sportive aboard his own rim-brake Cannondale SuperSix Evo, tested over 20 aero helmets in the wind tunnel, and has created helpful in-depth buying advice relating to countless categories from torque wrenches to winter clothing.
