REI Link Seat Pack: Was $79.95, Now $22.83

A velcro strap around your seatpost and a clip strap to your saddle rails secure the pack to your bike.
Adidas Gravel Cycling Shoes: Was $200.00, Now $139.93
30% off - There are sizes and half sizes from 6 to 13 available for Adidas's gravel shoes at REI. You don't need to have these lairy red ones either, as there are black and blue options too. A high cuff keeps grit out of your shoes and a reinforced nylon sole with rubber grips helps you get along on and off the bike.
Bontrager Aeolus RSL Saddle: Was $315.00, Now $219.93
30% off - Upgrade your saddle comfort and reduce your bike's weight with this top-spec Bontrager saddle in 155mm width. Sitting on carbon rails, it weighs just 146g and the wide cut-out helps keep you comfortable in a more aero ride position.
Craft Core Bike SubZ Women's Jacket: Was $139.95, Now $80.73
42% off - Craft's windproof and waterproof jacket is brushed for extra insulation to help keep you riding through winter and there's also a discount on the women's long-sleeved jersey. REI members can get an extra 25% off both items until 2 December.
Topeak Joe Blow Booster Reservoir Pump: Was $219.95, Now $131.93
40% off - If you're a convert to tubeless, you'll know that getting a tyre to seat can be a hit and miss affair. The Joe Blow Booster is one of our go-to tools to consistently seat and inflate tubeless tyres, delivering a big blast of air at up to 160psi through its Smarthead connector.
Sealskinz Bodham All-Weather Gloves: Was $70.00, Now $48.93

Smith Network MIPS helmet: Was $170.00, Now $101.93
40% off - You can get a 40% discount on the Network MIPS helmet in this funky colourway at REI, although there are also lower discounts on other colours. The helmet includes Koroyd as well as MIPS for impact resistance, although the 20 vents remain open for good airflow.
Peaty's Foaming Degreaser: Was $25.00, Now $11.93
52% off - Keeping your bike clean has to be one of the worst aspects of winter riding. This 1-litre degreaser from Peaty's will get the dirt off your chain and expensive drivetrain components fast, helping them to survive the onslaught of damp, salty roads.
WTB Tubeless Tyre Sealant: Was $24.95, Now $17.39
30% off - Tubeless tyres require a regular sealant top-up and this WTB 32 fluid ounce option is claimed to seal holes up to 1/4 inch across. WTB has reduced the antifreeze content, which it says improves performance at temperatures above 15F. It's ammonia-free and made with synthetic latex, so it should be less irritant.
Crankbrothers M19 Multi Tool: Was $37.00, Now $25.89
30% off - REI has a few different Crankbrothers multi-tools on offer. This M19 includes a good range of hex heads, a crosshead screwdriver and a Torx wrench, as well as a chain tool in a compact package that's easy to stash.

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.
