Updated Dec 24th, 2016: Last day for many sales, especially Garmin ones!
It’s that time of year again when there are tons of sales on all sorts of sports technology items. Everything this year is pointing to earlier sales than normal, as manufacturers and retailers alike try to lock in your dollars ahead of time.
The typical ebb and flow of this time period is:
Pre-Thanksgiving deals: These are everything ahead of the US Thanksgiving, on November 24th. These are and will be more pronounced this year than in past years.
Black Friday deals: These are tied to Black Friday (BF), on November 25th. Some span that weekend. Generally speaking most retailers have access to the same major deals (i.e. Garmin, Fitbit, etc…).
Cyber Monday deals: These are on Monday, November 28th. Occasionally they spill into that Tuesday as well.
General December deals: We tend to see ‘repeats’ of some deals in the mid-December time-frame (usually around the 10th-15th). These are rarely better than BF deals, but usually quite good.
Most deals aren’t announced until a few days prior, if any prior announcement at all. Some deals have a specific quantity of items attached, which may be a few or a ton. And others are very time-limited, like Amazon deals. Note that while many deals are US-focused, in recent years we’ve seen Europe really get into the Black Friday/Cyber Monday side. So definitely good news there!
With that – let’s get into it! I’ll update the list and cross things off as we move through the season:
Current Deals!
Here’s what’s currently active. The ones I feel are the best bang for the buck, have a little * at the front of them. Of course, many of these are great deals if you’re in the market for it already. It’s just the ones with the stars are exceptionally unusual.
Garmin Deals:
You can also find all Garmin product deals here and all general Holiday Deals here.
Garmin 2016 Holiday Deals
Note I do not expect any further Garmin deals this season beyond these. And obviously, don’t expect any new product announcements from anyone at this point. The time is over for new products. The next time that train arrives at the station is CES 2017 (first week of January).
Here’s my very brief notes on why you see some of these products and whether they make sense to purchase.
Forerunner series: With the FR230/235/630 only a year old, I don’t see a near term replacement there. This to me just seems like a typical Black Friday type sale of a 1yr+ old product. With the FR920XT, that’s two years old. Given the FR735XT came out this past summer (not an exact replacement, but kinda close), I think we’ll see Garmin continue to wait on a direct FR920XT replacement for the near-medium term.
Fenix3 series: Garmin has pretty much established a yearly cadence of Fenix series units. 2014 saw the Fenix2, 2015 saw the Fenix3, 2016 saw the Fenix3 HR, and I suspect 2017 will bring whatever is next. In all recent cases, these products were announced at CES in early January, but not available until the February-April timeframe (depending on exact product).
Vivo Series: These are Garmin’s favorites to discount, since they have a much wider appeal. I see these sales as ‘simply keeping up with everyone else’s sales’, and by ‘everyone else’, I mean Fitbit. I wouldn’t read into these too much other than being good deals. Oh, and for Vivofit Jr, that was just announced last month – so these sales are just a vehicle to get more exposure there.
Edge Series: While the Edge 1000 may be due for an update, any release cycle there would likely be tied to late Spring (i.e. Sea Otter announcement), which Garmin has favored in recent years for announcing products. In the meantime, it continues to get new features on a near monthly basis. As for the Edge 20, not sure there, seems like it just came along for the ride.
TomTom Deals:
TomTom Runner – $69 (normally $129)
*TomTom Spark – $89 (normally $149)
TomTom Spark Music – $129 (normally $199)
*TomTom Spark Music + Cardio – $174 (normally $249)
TomTom Spark Music + Cardio w/headphones – $224 (normally $299)
Note that the ‘Cardio’ version means it has optical HR in it. My review of all these watches can be found here (Runner) and here (Spark). Note, I see absolutely no logical reason why you’d get the older Runner vs the Multisport Spark, given they are the same price and the Spark has more features.
Everything else!
And then there’s a ton more things:
| Product | Sale Price | Amazon | Sale Notes | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 | HoverAir X1 Drone - $80 off! | $349 | Amazon | Note: There's virtually always a $80 coupon that can be clicked on the Amazon page. |
Top Deals You Ordered Weekend:
I thought it’d be fun to list the Top 10 Sports Tech items people ordered over the weekend, using links from the site. They are:
Fitbit Charge 2
Garmin Forerunner 920XT
Garmin Fenix3
Garmin Vivoactive HR
Garmin Vivofit Jr. (WTF?)
Garmin FR235
Garmin Vivosmart HR+
PowerTap P1s power meter pedals
PowerPod power sensor
Scosche Rhythm+ optical HR sensor
The major pattern was basically the most heavily discounted options. The Vivofit Jr was definitely the surprise there, as was the P1s (which is the left-only one). The others made sense, as they were all major discounts on things. All of these are linked above, and all of them as of Monday, are still on-sale for quite a discount.
European Deals!
What’s that? You’re not in the US and still want a deal? No problem! First off, you should note that some retailers do send some items overseas. For example, Clever Training can send many products overseas, and do so at a flat-rate $29USD shipping cost. You’ll want to check the individual item. For some deals, that could be a huge savings!
Beyond that, I’ll be tracking Euro-specific deals here. These will include both Clever Training Europe (UK) as well as Amazon European deals.
Woot – important! The Clever Training Europe deals below can be combined with the DCR 10% discount coupon code DCR10BTF. Boom! So yes, another 10% savings on top of these prices! Plus free shipping in Europe for orders over 75EUR (almost everything in the list from CT).
Note: On Amazon Europe deals, generally speaking you can order from any Amazon European country site (i.e. Amazon France) and have it shipped within the EU (i.e. Spain). Thus, many times deals are duplicates across the sites.
European Deals
Didn’t find what you wanted?
No worries, you can still save a bundle, or help support the site. With Clever Training you can get 10% off everything they sell (except most sale/clearance items). You’ll just use the DCR coupon code DCR10BTF and boom, good to go! Plus, you’ll get free US shipping over $75. For a handful of items you may need to use the DCR/CT VIP program to get points back instead, but it only takes a moment to sign-up.
In addition, you can support the site with purchases from any of the below three retailers – no matter if it’s sports tech, or toilet paper. Just click on the link and you’re off!

| Product | Sale Price | Amazon | Other site | Sale Notes | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 | Garmin Index S2 WiFi Scale - 20% off $149 | $119 | Amazon | I use this scale, merely for the weight tracking functions (not body fat). It works just fine, and integrates with the rest of your Garmin data. If you aren't in the Garmin ecosystem, there's plenty of cheaper options. | |
 | Garmin Forerunner 955 Solar: $100 off! $499/$599 | $499 | Amazon | REI | See everything I said above on the Forerunner 955 base, except this one also has solar. |
 | Garmin Forerunner 255/255S Music - $100 off! | $299 | Amazon | REI | This is Garmin's mid-tier running watch, and is a very polished option with good multi-band GPS, and of course, a boatload of running metrics. This model also includes offline music such as Spotify and Amazon Music. |
 | Garmin Forerunner 55 - $30 off $199 | $169 | Amazon | REI | This is a good little running watch, though, it also supports plenty of other sport types as well. This is the normal sales price. |
 | Garmin Epix (Gen 2) & Sapphire - $300 off $899/$999 | From $549 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ This deal is back, and at $549 for the base edition, and a mere $599 for the Titanium/Sapphire editions, it's a very strong deal. Sure, not as stong as Uncle Amazon back during Black Friday at $449, but those days are gone. Also, this Epix series just got another huge slate of new features this past week, and continues to get equal new features to the Epix Pro units. |
 | Tacx NEO 2T Smart Trainer (+ Free Motion Plates) - $400 off! $1,399 | $999 | Amazon | Pros-closet.sjv | ⚡ This deal is back, except now they've sweetened it by adding in the $300 Tacx Motion Plates for free (via rebate). So, in the event you didn't pick up before, go forth. |
 | Apple Watch Series 9 - $106 off! $399/$499 (cellular) | $292 | Amazon | I have no idea why this specific Apple Watch Series 9 combo is on sale this much more than the other editions (which are on sale to $320), but hey...the one I've linked to is the Midnight Aluminum Case with Midnight Sport Loop, and is currenetly listed as new at $293. Else, it's $329 ($70 off). | |
 | Garmin Forerunner 955 - $100 off! | $399 | Amazon | Pros-closet.sjv | This is one of Garmin's most popular running watches, and it's back down to the lowest price ever. I often use this in my accuracy testing comparisons when validating other watches, due to it's very strong GPS performance. Note this is the base edition without solar. It'd be hard to find any better deal in sports watches today, from any company (given this has full mapping, tons of new features even this week, etc...) |
 | Samsung Galaxy Watch6 Classic - $100 off | $299 | Amazon | This is a reasoanbly solid deal for this watch, which came out last summer. | |
 | Garmin Instinct Crossover - $50 off | $349 | Amazon | ||
 | Garmin Instinct 2X - $50 off | $399 | Amazon | REI | This is the second we've seen the Instinct 2X on sale, and since announcement it's received a huge slate of firmware updates and new features. It's best thought of as an Instinct 2.5, given the slightly different internals compared to the rest of the Instinct 2 series. |
 | Samsung Galaxy Watch6 - $50 off | $249 | Amazon | ||
 | Google Pixel Watch 1 - $150 off | $199 | Amazon | While the new Pixel Watch 2 just came out last fall, the Pixel Watch 2 got almost all the software features via software update. The Pixel Watch 2 does have a slightly better optical HR sensor, and better battery life, but otherwise is relatively similiar. In fact, the Pixel 1 just got another pile of software updates last week. | |
 | Polar Pacer - $70 off! | $166 | Amazon | This is about as low as it gets price-wise for the Polar Pacer (base unit). | |
 | Polar Pacer Pro - $70 off! $329 | $269 | Amazon | ||
 | Garmin Instinct 2 Series - $60+ Off | From $238 | Amazon | REI | ⚡The Instinct 2 base is from $238 (on Amazon), a very solid deal - especially with all the major software updates it's had over the last year. It's also from $249 at REI. |
 | Garmin Forerunner 255/255S - $100 off | $249 | Amazon | REI | This is Garmin's mid-tier running watch, and is a very polished option with good multi-band GPS, and of course, a boatload of running metrics. |
 | Hydrow Rowing Machine - $500 off | $1,995 | Amazon | This is one of the other more popular display-laden rowing machines. I haven't tried this, but my sports-tech reviewing buddy DesFit has (linked at side) and liked it. | |
 | Peloton Bike - $350 off | $1,095 | Amazon | I believe this is the lowest price we've ever seen on the original/base Peloton Bike model (without a bundle required). This is still a solid bike, and actually one that I use at home (I have the newer Peloton Bike+ at the office). Both my wife and I use these bikes interchangeably, and while the Bike+ has a bigger screen and better accuracy, there's very little difference in the core Peloton experience. I'd still recommend this model to most people. Note Peloton has stated/confirmed there will be no 'bigger discounts' on products during this holiday period. | |
 | Peloton Row - $250+ off | $2,745 | Peloton Site | Peloton has the Peloton Row on sale, both this base unit here, but also various bundled units as well. This is the first times we've seen the base unit (non-bundled) on sale. | |
| Tacx NEO 2T Smart Trainer - $500 off! $1,399 | $899 | Amazon | REI | ⚡⚡ Holy crap, this is an incredible deal. Get this while it's hot and lasts. Note that you can also pair this with the NEO Motion Plates, which would give you a slight bit of forward/back rolling motion. |
 | Tacx Flux 2 Smart Trainer - $300 off $899 | $599 | Amazon | REI | |
 | Garmin Fenix 7 Pro Solar Sapphire Series (7S/7/7X Pro) - $200 off! $799+ | $699 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ This is the first time we've seen the new Fenix 7 Pro series on sale, and it's a nice strong sale. The smaller Fenix 7S Pro watch has become my wife's go-to watch since it came out, for all of her training and 24x7 usage. |
 | DJI Avata Bundle - $300 off! | $899 | Amazon | The DJI Avata is DJI's smaller form factor FPV drone, and one of my favorites to fly. I don't use it all the time, but more for very specific things requiring a bit more agility (whereas most of the times I'll use the DJI Mini 4 Pro, Air 3, or Mavic 3 Pro). | |
 | Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen with USB-C) - $60 off | $189 | Amazon | I've been using these the past few months, after years of using the Beats Studio Buds...man, these things rock. My wife has already started stealing them, which means she'll probably get a set for Christmas so she'll stop sealing them. | |
 | Peloton Bike+ is $400 off | $1,995 | Amazon | This is a solid deal for the Bike+. Both my wife and I use both the Peloton Bike+ and the regular Bike (one at home, one at office) on a weekly basis. We like both. The Bike+ is more accurate than the regular bike, and also has a bigger screen and automatic resistance control. That said, the core Peloton experience isn't any different between the two - it's the same platform there. Note Peloton has stated/confirmed there will be no 'bigger discounts' on products during this holiday period. | |
 | Garmin Epix Pro Series (Sapphire Editions) - $200 off! | $799 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ This is the first time we've seen the new Epix Pro series on sale, and it's a nice strong sale. I'd say this is probably my go-to watch these days (middle-sized one), with the singular reason I tend to choose it over the Forerunner 965, being the built-in flashlight for night. |
| Fenix 7 Pro Solar Series (7S/7/7X Pro) - $200 off! $799+ | $599 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ This is the first time we've seen the new Fenix 7 Pro series on sale, and it's a nice strong sale. The smaller Fenix 7S Pro watch has become my wife's go-to watch since it came out, for all of her training and 24x7 usage. |
| Garmin Epix Pro Series - $200 off! $899/$999 | $699 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ This is the first time we've seen the new Epix Pro series on sale, and it's a nice strong sale. I'd say this is probably my go-to watch these days (middle-sized one), with the singular reason I tend to choose it over the Forerunner 965, being the built-in flashlight for night. |
| Garmin Instinct 2 Series - $50 Off | $299 | Amazon | REI | This is a good deal, especially considering the Instinct 2 series got Training Readiness and a host of other new features over the course of just this year alone. |
 | Wahoo POWRLINK ZERO (Dual-sided) - $200 off! $649/$999 | $799 | REI | ⚡ This is a very solid deal that happens twice a year, if you were looking at the Wahoo power meter pedals, grab these before this disappears (and it usually disappears). As with the Garmin Rally pedals, I continue to use Wahoo power meter pedals for accuracy testing of other brands/units. | |
 | Wahoo POWRLINK ZERO (Single-sided) - $130 off! | $520 | REI | ⚡ This is a very solid deal that happens twice a year, if you were looking at the Wahoo power meter pedals, grab these before this disappears (and it usually disappears). As with the Garmin Rally pedals, I continue to use Wahoo power meter pedals for accuracy testing of other brands/units. | |
 | Insta360 Go 3 - $20 off | $379 | Amazon | I actually quite like the Insat360 Go 3 and the combo of tiny form factor when you want it, and screen-box when you don't. I'm not sure $20 off is a sale worth jumping out of your seat for, but hey...a sale is a sale. | |
 | Fitbit Sense 2 - $50 off | $249 | Amazon | This isn't quite the biggest sale we've seen, so I'd expect it to go a bit lower over Black Friday. | |
| Samsung Galaxy Watch6 - $20 off | $279 | Amazon | ||
| Samsung Galaxy Watch6 Classic - $70 off | $330 | Amazon | This is a reasoanbly solid deal for this watch, which came out this past summer. | |
 | Wahoo ELEMNT ROAM V2 - $80 off $399 | $329 | Amazon | ||
 | Garmin Tactix 7 Pro - $200 off! | $1,099 | Amazon | This is the first time we've seen the Tactix 7 Pro on sale. Note the other Tactix 7 Pro units/variants are also on sale for $200 off too! | |
 | Garmin Fenix 7 Series (All Models/Styles) - $200 off! $699+ | $499 | Amazon | REI | ⚡This is a strong deal if you don't care about the new optical heart rate sensor (including ECG) of the newer Fenix 7 Pro, especially given the Fenix 7 series has received virtually all of the Fenix 7 Pro's new software features, keeping them essentially identical. |
| Garmin Forerunner 955 Solar: $100 off! $499/$599 | $499 | Amazon | REI | This is one of Garmin's most popular running watches, and this is now the lowest price we've ever seen on it. I often use this in my accuracy testing comparisons when validating other watches, due to it's very strong GPS performance. This is the SOLAR edition. |
 | Garmin Epix Sapphire Titanium (Gen 2) - $400 off! | $449 | Amazon | ⚡⚡⚡ This is a crazy super strong deal, with Amazon having it as low as $499 for Sapphire edition (insane). Note that the Epix Gen 2 has continued to receive virtually all of the Epix Pro new features firmware updates. | |
 | GoPro Hero 12 Black - $50 off! | $349 | Amazon | This is the first time we've seen a sale on the GoPro Hero 12 Black. It's not massive, but hey, it's a good start! | |
 | DJI Mini 3 Fly More Combo with DJI RC-N1 Bundle - $60 off | $659 | Amazon | ||
 | Garmin Forerunner 255/255S Music - $100 off! $349/$399 | $299 | Amazon | REI | This is Garmin's mid-tier running watch, and is a very polished option with good multi-band GPS, and of course, a boatload of running metrics. This model also includes offline music such as Spotify and Amazon Music. |
 | 9th Gen Apple 10.2-inch iPad (Wi-Fi, 64GB) - $100 off! | $229 | Amazon | ⚡ This is an awesome deal. I use my iPad primarily for TrainerRoad as well as Zwift when not with a larger display. I also occasionally use it for other apps, namely Wahoo SYSTM, Rouvy, and Peloton. But I pretty much test every smart trainer app on it. For all these cycling apps, the graphics capabilities is really pretty irrelevant, so having the absolute top-end/latest model won't make any difference. I prefer the budget options. | |
 | 4iiii Precision Ride-Ready Power Meters - $100 off! | $235 | 4iiii Site | This is for their non-drive power meter, in either the 'Ride-Ready' config (they send you a completed unit), or $50 off for the factory-install (where you send in your crank arm). The Ride Ready option is really a solid deal, considering you get a reliable power meter for $235. Ride Ready R7000 - 30% off Ride Ready R8000 - 20% off Factory Install - 20% off | |
| Garmin Forerunner 255/255S - $100 off | $249 | Amazon | REI | This is Garmin's mid-tier running watch, and is a very polished option with good multi-band GPS, and of course, a boatload of running metrics. |
 | Withings Body+ WiFi Scale - 30% off | $69 | Amazon | I've long been a fan of the Withings WiFi scales, especially since they can connect/push data to so many platforms, including Zwift! Note that the Body+ simply includes more data. | |
| Garmin Epix (Gen 2) - $350 off! $899/$999 | From $449 | Amazon | ⚡⚡⚡ This is a crazy super strong deal, with Amazon having it as low as $449 (insane). Note that the Epix Gen 2 has continued to receive virtually all of the Epix Pro new features firmware updates. Also note: This deal is *STILL* available. Sometimes you'll have to click to show other retailers (on the right side), but it's still live. | |
 | Garmin Fenix 6 Pro Series $549-$1,149 | $329 | Amazon | [Note: This is a renewed unit] Obviously, the Fenix 6 isn't the latest anymore, but these are still very capable watches and frankly, at $329, there's absolutely nothing from any of their even brand-new competitor watches (COROS, Polar, Suunto, etc...) that can even remotely compete with the features here. Heck, not even Garmin's own pricing for their Fenix 7 Pro can compete with this. Fwiw, all Garmin renewed units go back to the same factory original units came from. Frankly, there's virtually no difference. If you're on a budget, this is where it's at. | |
 | Garmin Edge 1040 Solar - $50 off | $699 | Amazon | The Pro's Closet | This is a modest deal, but hey, a deal is a deal. |
 | Hammerhead Karoo 2 - $140 off! $399 | $259 | N/A | The Pro's Closet (TPC) | ⚡The Karoo 2 is down to $299 ($100 off), but you can use DCR coupon code DCRAIN40 to get an additional $40 off, bringing it down to $259!!! A very solid deal given all the software updates it's received! |
 | Polar Ignite 3 - $75 off! $329 | $256 | Amazon | ||
 | Garmin inReach Messenger - $50 off | $249 | Amazon | REI | |
 | Garmin Varia Radar (RTL515) - $50 off | $149 | Amazon | The Pro's Closet | This is Garmin's standalone radar+taillight option, and $149 is pretty much the standard sale-price. |
 | DJI Mini 4 Pro Fly More Combo with DJI RC2 - $140 off! | $959 | Amazon | ⚡ This is the first time we've seen the DJI Mini 4 Pro on sale, for a product DJI rarely discounts so soon after release. This is a great drone, and my go-to unit now for most trips. | |
 | Apple Watch Ultra 2 - $70 off! | $729 | Amazon | This is really the first slate of sales we've seen on the Apple Watch Ultra 2, and the lowest price to date. Note: It'll show $739, and then to get the full extra $10 more off, you have to check that 'Apply Coupon' button under the price. | |
| Apple Watch Series 9 - $70 off $399/$499 (cellular) | $329 | Amazon | This is Apple's latest Apple Watch model, and did quite well in my review when it launched about two months ago. Especially notable is all the new sports/fitness features it got this year, such as cycling power meter/sensor support. | |
 | Fitbit Charge 6 - 38% off! $159 | $99 | Amazon | Given this is barely two months old, this is a pretty substantial deal - especially if you don't utilize the built-in GPS side of the device. | |
 | Whoop 4.0 with 1-year subscription - 17% off | $199 | Amazon | This brings down the 1-year price to $17/month, which is the lowest it's been (only way to get that is normally a 24-month membership). | |
 | Amazfit Cheetah Pro - $30 off! | $269 | Amazon | ||
 | Garmin Forerunner 965 - $50 off! | $549 | Amazon | REI | This is the first time we've seen the Garmin FR965 on sale since launch. While it's not a huge sale, it's something! |
| Google Pixel Watch 1 - $100 off | $250 | Amazon | While the new Pixel Watch 2 just came out a month ago, the Pixel Watch 2 got almost all the software features two weeks ago via software update. The Pixel Watch 2 does have a slightly better optical HR sensor, and better battery life, but otherwise is relatively similiar. | |
 | Wahoo KICKR Core Smart Trainer - $120 off! $899 | $479 | N/A | REI | ⚡⚡ This deal is back, and it's a pretty incredible deal. It's the Wahoo KICKR CORE down to $499, which REI briefly did this past June. Nobody else seems to be offering this deal, and even though the KICKR CORE got the price reduced to $599 recently, it's virtually unheard of to see these trainers below the $500 marker. |
 | Garmin inReach 2 Mini Satellite Communicator (2-way) - $100 off | $299 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ This is my defacto satellite communicator when out of coverage area, and I've used it on a number of major treks over the past two years when well outside of cellular service, both in a 24x7 tracking mode for friends and family, but also there in case of emergency. Would strongly recommend for anyone doing anything in the wilderness. |
 | Suunto Vertical - $100 off! | $529 | Amazon | REI | This is the first time we've seen the new Suunto Vertical on sale, and especially notable given the huge firmware update it got this past week with tons of new features from the also-new Suunto Race watch. |
| Garmin Instinct 2X - $100 off! | $349 | Amazon | REI | This is the first time we've seen the Instinct 2X on sale, and since announcement it's received a huge slate of firmware updates and new features. It's best thought of as an Instinct 2.5, as it has almost enough features to really be more of an Instinct 3 (which doesn't exist at this point). |
| Garmin Forerunner 55 - $30 off $199 | $169 | Amazon | REI | This is a good little running watch, though, it also supports plenty of other sport types as well. |
 | Garmin Forerunner 265 Series - $50 off! $449 | $399 | Amazon | REI | |
 | Lasko High Velocity Pro-Performance Fan (U15617) - 23% off | $73 | Amazon | This is one of the most popular indoor trainer fan companies out there, which rivals the Wahoo Headwind fan but cost a fraction of the price. Of course, it lacks ANT+/Bluetooth integration, but realistically if you really want that you can add a smart outlet for $10 to toggle it on/off from your phone if need be. I've actually got this fan in the DCR Cave recently on advice of many people. | |
 | DJI Mini 3 Fly More Combo with DJI RC - $100 off! | $699 | Amazon | ||
 | Garmin Instinct 2S Solar $100 off! | $199 | Amazon | REI | This is a great deal at $199 for the smaller 2S units, especially considering the Instinct 2 series got Training Readiness and a host of other new features over the course of just this year alone. Plus of course all the existing triathlon/power meter/etc support it has built-in. |
 | Apple Watch SE (2022/2nd gen) - $70 off $249/$299 (cellular) | $179 | Amazon | ⚡This is now the lowest price we've ever seen the Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen) - a very solid deal, especially with the new WatchOS 10 features adding in offline topo mapping, power meter support, and plenty more. | |
 | Garmin Edge 1040 - $50 off | $549 | Amazon | The Pro's Closet | This is a modest deal, but hey, a deal is a deal. |
 | Garmin Venu SQ - 40% off $199/$249 with Music | $149 | Amazon | This is a so-so deal, previous 2021 and 2022 Black Friday's have put it all the way down to $119USD. So...I'd hold. | |
 | Apple Airpods (2nd Gen) - $40 off! $159 | $89 | Amazon | These aren't the latest anymore, that's the newer 3rd gen units. But if budget is in mind, it's hard to beat these. It's still what my wife uses as her daily driver, including tons of time on the indoor trainer/bike. | |
 | Polar H10 Chest Strap (Dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart) - 24% off $89 | $67 | Amazon | This is a great dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart (with two Bluetooth Smart connections) chest strap that you'll often find me using as a reference strap in heart rate sensor testing. We only tend to see deals on it around Black Friday, always topping out around 20%. Note, the medium- size is the one on sale. | |
 | GoPro Hero 11 Black Mini - $100 off $399 | $249 | Amazon | This is the lowest price we've seen on the GoPro Hero 11 Black Mini to date! | |
 | Garmin Venu 3 - $50 off! $449 | $399 | Amazon | This is the first time we've seen this unit on sale since it launched a couple months ago, so this is a solid deal! | |
 | BOB Revolution Flex Running Stroller - 20% off | $439 | Amazon | There's just no competition in our minds on the best running stroller - it's what we used with all three of our kiddos for everyting from intervals to 20-mile long runs. In fact, we actually have two of them - one at home in Europe, and one with family in Canada that we picked up used. Go Bob Go! | |
 | Jackery Portable Power Station - $85 off! | $154 | Amazon | This is something I use frequently when shooting out and about and I need to re-charge a crapton of drone batteries, action cameras, or just cameras and such. I also use it on trips to Eurobike and elsewhere to keep equipment charged. I've even bought a solar panel to hook up to it (surprisingly effective). Heck, I've even powered a KICKR trainer ride from it! | |
| Polar Pacer Pro - $70 off! $329 | $259 | Amazon | ||
 | Wahoo RIVAL GPS Watch - 50% off $199 | $99 | Amazon | ⚡ At some point, everything becomes a steal. While the Wahoo RIVAL struggles to be comepetitive with higher-end watches, at $99, it's a pretty crazy deal - especially for triathletes where Wahoo does some cool stuff around automatic transitions. | |
 | Garmin HRM-PRO Plus - 25% off! $129 | $97 | Amazon | This strap is one of the two straps I use constantly for other HR sensor accuracy comparisons (alongside Polar H10) | |
| Garmin Forerunner 965 - $50 off! $599 | $549 | Amazon | This is the first time we've seen the Garmin FR965 on sale since launch. While it's not a huge sale, it's something! | |
 | Samsung T9 SSD (1-4TB) - up to 43% off | $109 | Amazon | I use a literal flotilla of these small SSD's for all my photo/video projects until they get moved off to the NAS system (Synology) for longer term storage. I have T5/T7 units, and are picking up a few of the larger T9 ones given the sale prices. Love them, incredibly fast and reliable. | |
 | SONOS Roam - 25% off | $134 | Amazon | We have a few SONOS speakers around the house and DCR Cave (the Ikea variants at DCR Cave), but by far our favorite is the Roam, which we take outdoors into the garden during the summer, beach vacations, AirBNB's, etc... It has a battery in it, and also connects to both WiFi and Bluetooth. Love, love, love | |
 | Nest Cam Outdoors - $60 off | $119 | Amazon | We use one of these and so far after just about five years, it's working great for us. Love it, and works better than trying to stick a regular Nest Cam out the window (since it'll reflect both during daytime and at night with the IR sensor). | |
 | Google Nest Cam Indoors - 30% off | $69 | Amazon | We have more Nest cam's than I can count. No really, we have half a dozen at the DCR Cave alone, plus more at home. We love them. Nest Cam's really only go on sale about 1-2x per year. | |
 | SanDisk 256GB Extreme PRO SD Cards - 52% off | $29 | Amazon | ⚡I use the SanDisk Extreme Pro SD Cards exclusively for all my video/photo shooting on my Panasonic GH5 and Nikon cameras (video and stills), including up to 6K recording with the GH5. I've mostly used 128's, but more and more lately I'm filling up cards faster with higher bitrates, so this sale is gonna have me pickup a bunch of the 256GB ones instead. The 128GB/ 512GB/1TB ones are also on sale too viathe same link. Note that usually I wait till these are about $40-45, so this is a fantastic deal and I'll be filling up. | |
 | Ooni Fyra 12 Wood Fired Outdoor Portable Pizza Oven - $105 off! | $244 | Amazon | ⚡ I know, I know, I still owe everyone a review. Nonetheless, 2+ years later, I love this thing. We use it for more than pizza too, notably steaks (to get a really crispy sear). But a lot of pizza. It's completely portable, even easily fitting on our cargo bike. Note that I went with this model, the cheapest one they make, as I realized that buying the higher-end models that that support gas didn't make much sense for me. I have a gas grill already (and could easily just put a stone on it). Similarly, while a large 16" is appealing, realistically I've found this 12" more than enough for pretty substantial personal pizzas (and it makes it easier to handle). Full in-depth review pretty soon...probably. Also, $244 appears to be the lowest price ever. | |
 | Google Nest Mesh WiFi Router - 55% off two-pack | $119 | Amazon | These are the WiFi mesh access points I use both at home and the DCR Cave. Love them - I don't need to dork with them, they just work. Sure, there are fancier 'Pro' versions now, but really, I just have zero issues. | |
 | Stages Power Meters - Most 20% off units | $267 | Competitivecyclist | Stages is offering 20% off most of their non-drive-side power meters. | |
 | Polar Vantage M2 - $100 $299 | $197 | Amazon | This appears to be the lowest price I have on record for the Poalr Vantage M2, which makes it pretty compelling as a starter triathlon watch! | |
 | DJI Mini 3 Pro with DJI RC - $150 off! | $767 | Amazon | Up till the Mini 4 Pro came out, this was my go-to drone. It's what I shot almost all my drone footage from, and is great for both cycling and hiking (or trail running with a hydration pack to hold it), as it's super lightweight and includes everything you need. | |
 | Oura Ring Products - Up to $100 off | $269 | Amazon | Oura Site | Oura has various products on sale, at various discounts, starting from $269, and up to $100 off depending on the model. |
 | Nespresso Vertuo Next Coffee & Espresso Kit - 30% off | $118 | Amazon | ⚡ Let's be honest: This place runs on Nespresso (or, well, the knock-off pods we buy). But, the machine is Nespresso. Without it, reviews most definitely would not get done (and certainly not on time). This is a pretty sweet deal if you ask me! | |
| Polar Pacer - $70 off! | $169 | Amazon | This is about as low as it gets price-wise for the Polar Pacer (base unit). | |
 | Polar Grit X Pro - $70 off $499/$599 | $449 | Amazon | This isn't realy the best deal we've seen for this watch, as it was down to $338 last year for Black Friday. Maybe we'll see it go lower this year. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 955 - $100 off! | $399 | Amazon | REI | This is one of Garmin's most popular running watches, and this is now the lowest price we've ever seen on it. I often use this in my accuracy testing comparisons when validating other watches, due to it's very strong GPS performance. Note this is the base edition without solar. |
 | Therabody Theragun Elite - $30 off | $289 | Amazon | This is arguably my wife's favorite sports tech gadget. She uses it pretty much daily. Thus, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention this deal. Also, please don't tell her, she might just buy another one... | |
 | Apple AirTags (4-Pack) - 20% off! | $79 | Amazon | ⚡I make no secret how much I utilize AirTags, mainly, cause they've saved my butt numerous times already. We have them in every suitcase, and every backpack, and every bike bag. They're also hidden in most of our bikes (sometimes two of them). We were able to get our cargo bike back when it disappeared, as well as figure out when all our suitcases went missing during an annual family vacation where they were (for 5 days!), and plan appropriately. Seriously, just get them. | |
 | Therabody Theragun Prime - $110 off! | $189 | Amazon | My wife uses the Theragun Elite, which is just slightly more expensive than this model at $299 on sale right now. But hey, I hear good things about all of these. | |
 | DJI Mini 2SE Drone - $40 off! $499 ($549 combo) | $299 | Amazon | There's definitely something cool about seeing a sub-$300 drone. And there's nothing wrong with this drone, it's very good. Just be careful though, because it's lack of 360* obstacle avoidance means it's pretty easy to get yourself in a pinch for a beginner drone. | |
 | FORM Swim Goggles (with heads-up display) - $70 off! | $179 | Amazon | This includes both the goggle, and a 1-year membership to their training/coaching platform. | |
 | Hyperice Normatec 3 Leg Recovery System - $100 off | $699 | Amazon | While this isn't something I've personally used, I know a ton of you do very much love it. Go forth! | |
 | GoPro Hero 12 Black Bundle Combo Kit - $100 off! | $349 | Amazon | This is a solid little bundle, with the GoPro Hero 12, two Enduro batteries, a floating handle, a head-mount, and a carrying case. | |
 | Stages Bike SB20 - $500 off! $2899 | $1,999 | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ A very solid deal, making it the least expensive smart bike out there. Note that while the deal is marketed as being 37% off, most of the time the bike floats between $2,500 and $2,800. Still - $1,999 is very solid. | |
 | Wahoo BOLT V2 - $50 off $279 | $229 | Amazon | REI | This is a good little deal on the Wahoo BOLT V2. |
 | CORE Body Temperature Sensor - 20% off | $227 | CORE Website | Both myself and my wife used these this past summer and fall, in particular as she was training for Kona and preparing for the heat. | |
 | Withings Body Cardio WiFi Scale - 30% off $59 | $129 | Amazon | ||
| Garmin Forerunner 255/255S Music - $100 off! | $299 | Amazon | REI | This is Garmin's mid-tier running watch, and is a very polished option with good multi-band GPS, and of course, a boatload of running metrics. This model also includes offline music such as Spotify and Amazon Music. |
 | Favero Assioma Duo Power Meter Pedals - 120EUR off! $459/$719 (single/dual) | €579 | N/A | Favero Site | ⚡ This is a strong deal from Favero, who is offering their Favero Assioma Duo pedals for 200EUR off. You'll pay the current exchange rate. The exact deal will vary based on which country you're shipping to. |
 | DJI OSMO Action 3 - $50 off | $279 | Amazon | Obviously, the newer Action 4 is now out, but that was a relatively modest upgrade from the Action 3 - so this might fit your budget a bit better. | |
 | Wahoo CLIMB Accessory - $140 off! $599 | $559 | N/A | REI | This simulates the up and down motion on most KICKR trainers (including KICKR CORE & SNAP), moving your bike up and down. |
 | Elite Suito-T Smart Trainer - $200 off! $799 (incl cassette) | $399 | Amazon | ⚡ This is by far the lowest price we've ever seen on the Elite Suito or Suito-T trainers. Note: The Suito-T is the same exact trainer as the Suito, except without the cassette pre-installed. Also, no idea why it says normally $473, as it's definitely not. | |
 | Wahoo Headwind Fan - $60 off! (In Stock) $249 | $240 | Amazon | REI | |
 | Garmin Vivoactive 5 - $50 off! $299 | $249 | Amazon | REI | This is notable in that it's the first time we've seen a sale on the Vivoactive 5, which is essentially a slightly cut-down Venu 3. |
 | Wahoo KICKR 2022/V6 - $300 off! $1,299 | $999 | REI | ⚡This is the best deal we've seen on thge Wahoo KICKR V6 to date! | |
| Garmin Venu 3 - $25 off $449 | $425 | Amazon | Well, I guess we have to start somewhere. This is the first discount we've seen on the Garmin Venu 3 series. It's not a big one, just $25 off, courtesy of Uncle Amazon. But hey, better than nothing! | |

| Garmin Epix (Gen 2) - 40% off! $899/$999 | $449 | Amazon | This price floats at $449-$499 the last few days, an incredible deal. | |
| Garmin Instinct 2 Series - $50 Off | $299 | Amazon | ⚡Given the fact that the Instinct 2 just got Training Readiness and other Instinct 2X software features in beta this past week, this starts to make this a very solidly priced unit. | |
| GoPro Hero 11 Black Mini - 30% off $399 | $279 | Amazon | I believe this is the lowest price we've seen to date on the Hero 11 Black mini | |
 | Beats PowerBeats Studio Buds - 40% off! $149 | $89 | Amazon | ⚡I've been using these for two summers now (since 2021), primarily on my indoor workouts, but also on some of my runs (for example, in testing out most watches with music). I like them and they've become my go-to buds. | |
 | Garmin Edge 1030 Plus - 50% off! $599 | $319 | Amazon | ⚡⚡This is a great deal for Garmin's largest bike GPS. While the newer Edge 1040 is out, the Edge 1030 Plus got a boatload of features, and is still an incredible unit. At this price it's cheaper than the newer/smaller Edge 540 and Edge 840. | |
 | Apple Watch Series 8 - $60 off $399/$499 (cellular) | $329 | Amazon | This is pretty much the normal price, almost perpetually on-sale for this amount on Amazon. | |
| Hammerhead Karoo 2 - $180 off! $399 | $219 | N/A | The Pro's Closet (TPC) | ⚡This isn't an Amazon deal, but heck, it's better than most. The Karoo 2 is down to $259, but you can use DCR coupon code DCRAIN40 to get an additional $40 off, bringing it down to $219!!! A very solid deal given all the recent software updates. |
 | GoPro Hero 11 Black - $150 off $499 | $349 | Amazon | ⚡This deal does NOT require the GoPro subscription, thus, is a very solid deal for the action cam I use daily. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 955 Solar: $90 off! $499/$599 | $511 | Amazon | This makes the price basically a wash with the non-Solar edition. But more notably, just last night the Forerunner 955 got a new beta version with the first slate of Epix Pro & Fenix 7 Pro feautres, including Endurance Score & Hill Climb. Solid! | |
 | Fitbit Charge 5 - 33% off $149 | $99 | Amazon | This is more or less the normal discount price we see on the Fitbit Charge 5. | |
 | Garmin Edge 830 Sensor Bundle - $150 off | $349 | Amazon | While this isn't a big sale, it's actually the lowest price the unit/bundle has been offered in the 3 years since release. | |
| Jackery Portable Power Station - $70 off | $219 | Amazon | This is something I use frequently when shooting out and about and I need to re-charge a crapton of drone batteries, action cameras, or just cameras and such. I also use it on trips to Eurobike and elsewhere to keep equipment charged. I've even bought a solar panel to hook up to it (surprisingly effective). Heck, I've even powered a KICKR trainer ride from it! | |
| DJI Mini 3 Pro with DJI RC - $220 off! | $693 | Amazon | ⚡This is a great deal for my go-to drone. It's what I shoot almost all my drone footage from, and is great for both cycling and hiking (or trail running with a hydration pack to hold it), as it's super lightweight and includes everything you need. | |
| Polar Grit X Pro $499/$599 | $388 | Amazon | This is more or less the standard sale price for the Grit X Pro. | |

| Fitbit Sense 2 - $70 off | $229 | Amazon | This is about the normal sale price for the Fitbit Sense 2 | |
 | Fitbit Inspire 3 - $20 off | $79 | Amazon | This is more or less the usual sale price for the Fitbit Inspire 3 | |
| Garmin HRM-PRO Plus - 20% off $129 | $103 | Amazon | A solid little deal for this strap, if you're in the Garmin ecosystem and want a dedicated chest strap. | |
 | Samsung Watch5 - 40% off | $179 | Amazon | ⚡This is by far the lowest price we've seen for this unit. Samsung did announce just last week that they plan to announce new products on July 25th, and it's heavily likely a Watch6 is one of those products, thus the probable reason for this extreme discount. | |
 | Samsung Galaxy Watch5 Pro - $70 off | $379 | Amazon | This watch is somewhat always on sale, but hey, it's still on-sale. | |
| Apple Watch Series 8 - $120 off $399/$499 (cellular) | $279 | Amazon | ⚡This is now by far the lowest price we've seen to date on the Apple Watch Series 8 - a very solid deal, especially with the new WatchOS 10 features releasing soon adding in offline topo mapping, power meter support, and plenty more. | |
| Apple Watch SE (2022/2nd gen) - $50 off $249/$299 (cellular) | $199 | Amazon | ⚡This is now the lowest price we've ever seen the Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen) - a very solid deal, especially with the new WatchOS 10 features releasing soon adding in offline topo mapping, power meter support, and plenty more. | |
| Google Pixel Watch - $100 off | $249 | Amazon | ⚡This is the lowest price we've seen to date. The watch also got some new sports/fitness/health features just a few weeks ago as well. | |
| Garmin Venu SQ & Venu SQ Music - 40% off $199/$249 with Music | From $119 | Amazon | The newer Venu SQ 2 is out but at $119, it's hard to beat this deal as an entry/gateway into the Garmin ecosystem. | |
| Peloton Bike+ is $350 off | $2,145 | Amazon | This is a reasonable deal for the Bike+. Both my wife and I use both the Peloton Bike+ and the regular Bike (one at home, one at office) on a weekly basis. We like both. The Bike+ is more accurate than the regular bike, and also has a bigger screen and automatic resistance control. That said, the core Peloton experience isn't any different between the two - it's the same platform there. | |
 | Suunto 9 Peak Pro - $150 off $549 | $399 | Amazon | The Suunto 9 Peak Pro is one of Suunto's top watches. While the new top-dog is the just released Suunto Vertical, the software remains essentially the same for the Suunto 9 Peak Pro, which just last week got Strava Live Segments and other new features recently. | |
| Garmin Edge 1030 Plus - 50% off! $599 | $299 | Amazon | ⚡⚡This is a great deal for Garmin's largest bike GPS. While the newer Edge 1040 is out, the Edge 1030 Plus got a boatload of features, and is still an incredible unit. At this price it's cheaper than the newer/smaller Edge 540 and Edge 840. | |
 | Garmin Vivoactive 4 - Still on sale $299 | $169 | Amazon | There's argueably no device in Garmin history that Garmin has put on sale more times than the Vivoactiv 4. Yet, here are, agian on sale. Realistically, there won't be a successor to the Vivoactive 4 in a MIP display (that the Venu series, in AMOLED). So if you own a musuem of MIP display watches, and want to ensure you have Vivoactive 4 units for decades into the future - nows your best price to date. | |
| Garmin Fenix 7 Series (All Models/Styles) - $100 off! $699+ | From $599 | Amazon | ⚡Most of the Fenix 7 series, especially the Fenix 7 Saphire models, are at least $100 off, with some upwards of $300 off (depends on exact model). | |
 | Peloton Guide - 15% off | $165 | Amazon | I used it here and there, and actually kinda of like it. This seems like a reasonable price for it. | |
| Garmin Epix (Gen 2) - $300 off $899/$999 | $599 | Amazon | ⚡⚡This is a very solid deal for the Epix, and I think the lowest price to date. While the Epix Pro just came out, hardware-wise that merely added a flashlight and made multiband GNSS standard. All the new software features are coming to the Epix Gen 2 in a software update later this summer, with beta likely in the next few days/weeks. | |
| Garmin Epix Sapphire Black Titanium (Gen 2) - $130 Off | $869 | Amazon | ⚡The white edition is $300 off, whereas the black sapphire edition is only $130 off. Thus, this is an good but not as incredible deal for the Epix sapphire black. While the Epix Pro just came out, hardware-wise that merely added a flashlight and made multiband GNSS standard (which this Sapphire edition already had multiband). All the new software features are coming to the Epix Gen 2 in a software update later this summer, with beta likely in the next few days/weeks. | |
 | Garmin Epix Sapphire White Titanium (Gen 2) - $300 Off | $699 | Amazon | ⚡⚡This is a very solid deal for the Epix, and I think the lowest price to date. While the Epix Pro just came out, hardware-wise that merely added a flashlight and made multiband GNSS standard (which this Sapphire edition already had multiband). All the new software features are coming to the Epix Gen 2 in a software update later this summer, with beta likely in the next few days/weeks. | |
 | Garmin Venu 2S - $100 off | $249 | Amazon | This is part of the Garmin Venu series that directly competes with the Apple Watch. While the Venu 2/2S is one version behind, the main differences the more expensive Venu 2 Plus has (also on sale) are around voice/speaker/calling. | |
 | Garmin Venu 2 Plus - $100 off $449 | $349 | Amazon | This is Garmin's main competitor to the Apple Watch series, and this is their latest edition. It's likely due for a refresh this fall (almost always has annual refreshes), but this is still a very solid watch that's extremely popular. | |
 | Garmin Instinct - $50 off $299 | $142 | Amazon | This is a pretty solid price, but it's also a pretty old unit at 5 years old. Still, it's better than a heck of a lot of its newer competitors, and is generally quite dependable. Note that while the 'discount amount' shows higher on Amazon, it normally floats around $190-$200. | |
| Ooni Fyra 12 Wood Fired Outdoor Portable Pizza Oven - $70 off! | $279 | Amazon | ⚡ I know, I know, I still owe everyone a review. Nonetheless, two years later, I love this thing. We use it for more than pizza too, notably steaks (to get a really crispy sear). But a lot of pizza. It's completely portable, even easily fitting on our cargo bike. Note that I went with this model, the cheapest one they make, as I realized that buying the higher-end models that that support gas didn't make much sense for me. I have a gas grill already (and could easily just put a stone on it). Similarly, while a large 16" is appealing, realistically I've found this 12" more than enough for pretty substantial personal pizzas (and it makes it easier to handle). Full in-depth review pretty soon...probably. | |
| Wahoo BOLT V2 - $50 off $279 | $220 | Amazon | ⚡This is a good little deal on the Wahoo BOLT V2, which continues to see solid upgrades includes Wahoo's free-ride Summit Segments this past spring. | |
 | DJI Air 2S Fly More Combo - $260 off | $1,039 | Amazon | While this is a fine drone and a fine deal, I'd either spend a fraction and get the DJI Mini 3 Pro - which is better in some ways, or the DJI Mavic 3 Pro (minus the combo pack) for far better stuff. Just my two cents. | |
 | Wahoo ELEMNT ROAM V1 - $40 off $379 | $159 | Amazon | While this is not the newer ROAM V2, this is still a great unit, and still gets solid firmware updates. For $159, seems pretty solid to me. | |
| Tacx NEO 2T Smart Trainer - $280 off! $1,399 | $1,120 | Amazon | This is Tacx's current top-end trainer, and while sales have been more frequent the last year, this is still a solid deal for a solid trainer. | |
 | Apple AirPods Max Wireless Headphones - 18% off | $449 | Amazon | So here's the thing about this whole section: It's all the geeky gadget things I love. Excpet, in this case, I haven't bought these yet. Just like the rest of the section is for you to try and resist the temperation, this item is for me to see if I can resist the price point. Realistically, I don't need it. My old/existing Surface headphones mostly work just fine. But, I also don't need Bikes N+1... May the force be with you. | |
 | Insta360 ONE RS Twin Edition (360 camera) - $90 off | $359 | Amazon | ||
| Apple AirTags (4-Pack) - 11% off! | $88 | Amazon | ⚡I make no secret how much I utilize AirTags, mainly, cause they've saved my butt numerous times already. We have them in every suitcase, and every backpack, and every bike bag. They're also hidden in most of our bikes (sometimes two of them). We were able to get our cargo bike back when it disappeared, as well as figure out when all our suitcases went missing during an annual family vacation where they were (for 5 days), and plan appropriately. Seriously, just get them...for everything. | |
| SanDisk 256GB Extreme PRO SD Cards - 52% off | $29 | Amazon | ⚡I use the SanDisk Extreme Pro SD Cards exclusively for all my video/photo shooting on my Panasonic GH5 and Nikon cameras (video and stills), including up to 6K recording with the GH5. I've mostly used 128's, but more and more lately I'm filling up cards faster with higher bitrates, so this sale is gonna have me pickup a bunch of the 256GB ones instead. The 128GB/ 512GB/1TB ones are also on sale too viathe same link. Note that usually I wait till these are about $40-45, so this is a fantastic deal and I'll be filling up. | |
 | Elite Direto XR-T Smart Trainer- 55% off $1,000 | $359 | Amazon | ⚡This is a crazy out of left field deal. Seriously, it's a very solid direct drive trainer, and now FAAAR cheaper than either the Zwift Hub or Wahoo KICKR CORE. The "-T" part of the naming simply means it doesn't come with a cassette (as many trainers don't), but that's easy enough to add. Really solid deal to consider. | |
 | Rode Lav GO Mic - 20% off | $59 | Amazon | Kinda a random item, but I use these mics in conjunction with the DJI Mic as my main lav mic for all my videos. I don't tend to see it on sale much...so...here we are. | |
| Lasko High Velocity Pro-Performance Fan (U12104) - 27% off | $47 | Amazon | This is one of the most popular indoor trainer fan companies out there, which rivals the Wahoo Headwind fan but cost a fraction of the price. Of course, it lacks ANT+/Bluetooth integration, but realistically if you really want that you can add a smart outlet for $10 to toggle it on/off from your phone if need be. I've actually got this fan in the DCR Cave recently on advice of many people. I have the pictured U15617 above, but this is a slightly newer model - the U12104. | |
 | Google Pixel Buds A Series: 50% off! | $59 | Amazon | Well that's a pretty crazy price drop. | |
| Whoop 4.0 with 1-year subscription - 17% off | $199 | Amazon | This is the first time we've seen an Amazon Prime Day deal on Whoop, mainly because they only joined Amazon a few months back. Either way, this brings down the 1-year price to $17/month, which is the lowest it's been (only way to get that is normally a 24-month membership). | |
| Insta360 ONE RS 4K Edition - $60 off | $229 | Amazon | ||
| Peloton Bike - $300 off! | $1,145 | Amazon | This is basically the standard Peloton Bike 'sale' price/deal. | |
| FORM Swim Goggles (with heads-up display) - 28% off | $179 | Amazon | This includes both the goggle, and a 1-year membership to their training/coaching platform. | |
 | Synology 5-bay DiskStation DS1522+ (Diskless) - 20% off | $599 | Amazon | ⚡ I use Synology NAS units for all my file storage at the DCR Cave. This unit is a slightly smaller variant of what I use (DS1817), but mainly just with less storage space. The D1522+ linked here is a solid deal at 20% off. Also, remember you'll need to add disks. | |
 | DJI Action 2 Dual-Screen or Magnetic Combo Editions - 24% off | From $240 | Amazon | ||
| Nespresso Vertuo Plus Coffee & Espresso Kit - 31% off | $110 | Amazon | ⚡ Let's be honest: This place runs on Nespresso (or, well, the knock-off pods we buy). But, the machine is Nespresso. Without it, reviews most definitely would not get done (and certainly not on time). This is a pretty sweet deal if you ask me! | |
 | Garmin Fenix 7X Solar - $300 off! | $599 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ While most of the Fenix 7 series is $100-$200 off, this particular unit (the 7X Solar Sapphire) is $300 off, which is a massive savings! Keep in mind that while the Fenix 7X Pro just came out, the Fenix 7 series is getting all the software updates in the coming days/weeks via beta, and then in production by later this summer. Since the Fenix 7X already had the flashlight, that's one less hardware bit. | |
 | Garmin Varia RCT715 Camera Radar - $80 off | $319 | Amazon | Note, you'll need to check the little "$30 off" coupon box to get the full $80 off! | |
 | Samsung T7 Portable SSD 1-2TB - 23% off | $99 | Amazon | I use a small fleet of these T7 SSD's for various video projects, alongside the Sandisk SSD's. I literally have one of each color, just to keep things simple. They work great for quick storage. Note: Different colors have different sale prices - I don't understand why. Also, the 1TB are only $69, 50% off. | |
| Polar H10 Chest Strap (Dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart) - 25% off $89 | $75 | Amazon | This is a great dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart (with two Bluetooth Smart connections) chest strap that you'll often find me using as a reference strap in heart rate sensor testing. We only tend to see deals on it around Black Friday, always topping out around 20%. Note, the medium- size is the one on sale. | |
| Wahoo KICKR Core Smart Trainer - $450 off! $899 | $449 | Amazon | REI | |
 | Garmin HRM-DUAL (ANT+/Bluetooth Smart Strap) - 35% off! $69 | $45 | Amazon | This is Garmin's ideal strap if you just want an affordable dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart option, especially when it's on sale like this - it really becomes the best deal out there right now for a multi-connection strap. | |
| Samsung Galaxy Watch5 Pro - $100 off | $399 | Amazon | This watch is somewhat always on sale, but hey, it's still on-sale. | |
 | Apple Watch Ultra - $98 off! | $701 | Amazon | ⚡This is the lowest price to date on the Apple Watch Ultra we've seen since launch! | |
| Garmin Vivoactive 4 - $100 off $299 | $199 | Amazon | REI | This watch is *well* past its prime, now coming up on 4 years old, but hey, I guess if you've decided it's the watch for you now - it's on-sale (again - apprixmately the 32nd time). |
| Garmin Instinct Crossover - $100 cheaper now | $399 | Amazon | While this watch just came out two months ago, it's now been price-reduced by $100. In fact, Garmin actually seemed to test the new lower price about a month ago in a temporary sale, and clearly the reduced price worked out. Thus, the official retail price is now $399 for the base, and $449 for the Solar. | |
| Garmin Instinct 2 Series - $100 Off | From $249 | Amazon | REI | ⚡The Instinct 2 base is from $249 (on Amazon), a very solid deal - especially with all the major software updates it's had over the last year. A very strong deal. |
| Garmin Venu 2/2S - $100 off | $299 | Amazon | REI | |
| Garmin Venu 2 Plus - $50 off! $449 | $399 | Amazon | ||
| Apple Watch Series 8 - $60 off $399/$499 (cellular) | $329 | Amazon | This is pretty much the normal price, almost perpetually on-sale for this amount on Amazon. | |
| Apple Watch Series 8 - $60 off $399/$499 (cellular) | $329 | Amazon | Note you'll need to check that box to apply the $60 off at checkout, but it's there! | |
| Garmin HRM-PRO Plus - 23% off! $129 | $99 | Amazon | ⚡This is by far the lowest price we've seen on this strap, and is my daily driver alongside the Polar H10. Solid deal! | |
| Samsung Galaxy Watch5 Pro - $50+ off! | $320 | Amazon | Depending on which high-water mark you use, this is one of the lower prices we've seen it - down to $320. | |
 | Garmin Edge 830 Cycling GPS - $50 off $399 | $349 | Amazon | REI | Obviously, Garmin just released the Edge 840, which starts at $449. Functionality-wise, the single biggest difference is the 840 has free-ride ClimbPro, and the 830 doesn't/won't get it. There's tons of other features, but that's realistically the main one worth paying for. And on the hardware side, the 840 has a better touchscreen in the rain, and added buttons. |
 | Garmin Edge 530 Cycling GPS - $50 off! $299 | $249 | Amazon | REI | Obviously, Garmin just released the Edge 540, which starts at $349. Functionality-wise, the single biggest difference is the 540 has free-ride ClimbPro, and the 530 doesn't/won't get it. There's tons of other features, but that's realistically the main one worth paying for. |
| Garmin Varia Radar (RTL515) - $50 off | Amazon | REI | This is Garmin's standalone radar+taillight option, and $149 is pretty much the standard sale-price. | |
| Wahoo KICKR Core Smart Trainer - $200 off! $899 | $699 | Amazon | REI | This has been the mainstay price on the KICKR CORE for a while. While the new Zwift Hub came out that's relatively similar and cheaper, the KICKR CORE is a better option if you want to combine it with the Wahoo CLIMB, or, if you need multichannel Bluetooth. |
| Garmin Instinct Crossover - 20% off! | $399 | Amazon | This is an oddly unexpected sale since this watch only just came out. But hey, take it and run! | |
| Wahoo KICKR 2022/V6 - 11% off $1,299 | $1,149 | N/A | REI | This is for the current model Wahoo KICKR 2022/V6, which includes built-in WiFi. This has mostly been on sale for a while, which doesn't mean there's a new variant coming, but rather likely just trying to get people to buy into a trainer towards the end of the winter season. |
| Apple Watch Ultra - $70 off! | $730 | Amazon | This is actually one of the lower prices we've seen for the Ultra. Note that there's a checkbox on the Amazon page to add another $50 discount to get it to the $730 price. This seems to work for most Apple Watch Ultra band editions. | |
| Elite Direto XR Smart Trainer- $400 off! $1,000 | $599 | N/A | REI | |
| Apple Watch SE (2022/2nd gen) - $30 off $249/$299 (cellular) | $219 | Amazon | ||

 | DJI Mini 3 with DJI RC - 13% off | $609 | Amazon | ||
| Wahoo POWRLINK ZERO (Dual-sided) - $200 off! $649/$999 | $800 | REI | ⚡ This is a very solid deal that happens twice a year, if you were looking at the Wahoo power meter pedals, grab these before this disappears (and it usually disappears). As with the Garmin Rally pedals, I continue to use Wahoo power meter pedals for accuracy testing of other brands/units. This deal is via REI for REI members using the coupon code MEMBER23. | |
| Garmin Rally RK200 (LOOK KEO Dual Sided) - $220 off | $880 | N/A | REI | ⚡ This is a very solid deal that happens twice a year, if you were looking at the Look KEO Rally setup (which can be swapped between pedal types), grab these before this disappears (and it usually disappears). This deal is via REI for REI members using the coupon code MEMBER23. |
| Garmin Rally XC200 (SPD Dual Sided) - $240 off! | $959 | N/A | REI | ⚡ This is a very solid deal that happens twice a year, if you were looking at the Shimano MTB SPD Rally setup (which can be swapped between pedal types), grab these before this disappears (and it usually disappears). This deal is via REI for REI members using the coupon code MEMBER23. |
| Garmin Rally RS200 (SPD-SL Dual sided) - $220 off! | $880 | N/A | REI | ⚡ This is a very solid deal that happens twice a year, if you were looking at the Shimano road SPD-SL Rally setup (which can be swapped between pedal types), grab these before this disappears (and it usually disappears). This deal is via REI for REI members using the coupon code MEMBER23. |
| Tacx NEO 2T Smart Trainer - $280 off! $1,399 | $1,120 | N/A | REI | This is Tacx's current top-end trainer, and while sales have been more frequent the last year, this is still a solid deal for a solid trainer. This deal is via REI for REI members using the coupon code MEMBER23. |
| Wahoo POWRLINK ZERO (Single-sided) - $130 off! | $520 | REI | ⚡ This is a very solid deal that happens twice a year, if you were looking at the Wahoo power meter pedals, grab these before this disappears (and it usually disappears).

 | Saris MP1 NFinity Motion Platform - $440 off! | $759 | N/A | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡This is by far the lowest normal sale price we've seen to date, save for their 'everything must go' clearance sale |
 | Wahoo KICKR SNAP - 40% off $499 | $299 | N/A | Competitive Cyclist | This is lowest we've ever seen the KICKR SNAP priced. While the trend has moved towards wheel-off/direct drive trainers, this is still really solid deal if your budget it tight. |
| Garmin Fenix 7 Series (All Models/Styles) - $100 off! $699+ | From $599 | Amazon | REI | ⚡This is the first time we've seen the Fenix 7 series on sale! This sale is $100 off all Fenix 7 series models, be it in the Fenix 7S/7/7X or any of the Sapphire/Solar variants. |
 | Wahoo KICKR Bike - $500 off! $3,499 | $1,999 | N/A | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡⚡⚡ This is an incredible deal, by far the lowest the KICKR Bike has ever been. Especially given the just-announced V2 bike is even more expensive now at $4,000. And frankly, aside from built-in WiFi, there's not much otherwise on the newer V2 bike. I plan to take advantage of this deal and finally buy one for myself, this is astounding. |
| Garmin Edge 530 Cycling GPS - $50 off! $299 | $249 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ This matches last year's Black Friday sale, and is the lowest price to date on the Edge 530. This is one of the main units I use for my day-to-day riding and testing. |
| Tacx NEO 2T Smart Trainer - $280 off! $1,399 | $1,120 | Amazon | Competitive Cylicst | This is Tacx's current top-end trainer, and while sales have been more frequent the last year, this is still a solid deal for a solid trainer. |
 | Beats PowerBeats Pro Wireless Sport Headphones - $100 off $249 | $149 | Amazon | ⚡ I like the PowerBeats Pro with the over-the-ear design, for more security in workouts, than my Beats Studio Buds. I use these as well as my Beats Studio Buds (and have used the PowerBeats Pro ones longer). $100 off is a solid deal. | |
| Apple Airpods (2nd Gen) - $50 off! $159 | $79 | Amazon | ⚡These aren't the latest anymore, that's the newer 3rd gen units. But if budget is in mind, it's hard to beat these - seriously, at $79 it's the lowest price these have ever been. | |
| 2021 Apple 10.2-inch iPad (Wi-Fi, 64GB) - $70 off! | $269 | Amazon | I use my iPad primarily for TrainerRoad as well as Zwift when not with a larger display. I also occasionally use it for other apps, namely Wahoo SYSTM, Rouvy, and Peloton. But I pretty much test every smart trainer app on it. For all these cycling apps, the graphics capabilities is really pretty irrelevant, so having the absolute top-end/latest model won't make any difference. I prefer the budget options. | |
 | Apple Airpods Pro (2nd Gen) - $50 off! $249 | $199 | Amazon | ||
 | Suunto 9 Peak - $170 off $569 | $399 | Amazon | While Suunto recently released the newer Suunto 9 Peak Pro, this existing model still benefits from many of the software updates. | |
| Beats PowerBeats Studio Buds - $60 off $149 | $89 | Amazon | ⚡I've been using these since last summer (2021), primarily on my indoor workouts, but also on some of my runs (for example, in testing out most watches with music). I like them and they've become my go-to buds. | |
| Garmin Edge 1030 Plus - $200 off $599 | $391 | Amazon | ⚡While the newer Edge 1040 came out this past summer, the Edge 1030 Plus is still an incredibly solid bike computer - arguably the 2nd best bike computer (behind the Edge 1040). | |
 | Suunto 5 Peak - $60 off! $299 | $239 | Amazon | This is Suunto's mid-range/budget multisport GPS unit, and at $239 it's a solid deal. | |
 | DJI Mavic 3 - $150 off $999 | $2,049 | Amazon | This is the second time we've seen the DJI Mavic 3 on sale (for a non-bundled deal). With all the firmware improvements since the fall, it's finally getting to a more stable place in terms of features. Of course, you can also now get the DJI Mavic 3 Classic for a fair bit cheaper, minus the zoom lens. Albeit, I personally think the zoom lens is handy (if used correctly). | |
| Google Pixel Buds Pro - Noise Canceling Earbuds (All Colors) - $50 off! | $149 | Amazon | ⚡This is the first time we've seen a sale on these, given they were just announced about 5 weeks ago. | |
| Garmin Fenix 7X Solar Sapphire - $150 off! | $849 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ While most of the Fenix 7 series is $100 off, this particular unit is $250 off, which is a massive savings! | |

| Therabody Theragun Prime - 34% off | $198 | Amazon | My wife uses the Theragun Elite, which is just slightly more expensive than this model at $299 on sale right now. But hey, I hear good things about all of these. | |
| Nespresso Vertuo Next Coffee & Espresso Kit - 30% off | $118 | Amazon | ⚡ Let's be honest: This place runs on Nespresso (or, well, the knock-off pods we buy for our Nespresso machine). But, the machine is Nespresso. Without it, reviews most definitely would not get done (and certainly not on time). This is a pretty sweet deal if you ask me! | |
| Garmin HRM-PRO Plus - 22% off $129 | $101 | Amazon | ⚡This is the first time we've seen this on sale - and so it's actually pretty notable. I don't even think it's supposed to be on sale, but this is just Amazon doing Amazon. This is one of the two main HR straps i use these days (alongside the Polar H10). Either way, definitely take this and run! | |
 | Polar Grit X - 17% off $429 | $357 | Amazon | ||
 | Quarq DZero DUB (Road) PM Spider - 40% off | $250 | Amazon | Competive Cyclist | ⚡This is a major deal. SRAM has allowed retailers to put things on sale that were never allowed before, including power meters. This is the road/gravel variant of the MTB one I use (the XX1). |
 | Elite Sterzo Smart - 40% off | $74 | Amazon | REI | This is Elite's steering block, for steering in apps like Zwift. |
 | Quarq DZero DUB XX1 PM Spider - 40% off | $449 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡This is a major deal. SRAM has allowed retailers to put things on sale that were never allowed before, including power meters. This is the same exact model I use on my mountain bike. Works well. |
| Elite Direto XR Smart Trainer- $400 off! $1,000 | $599 | Amazon | REI | ⚡This is by far the lowest price we've seen on this trainer to date! |
| Therabody Theragun Elite - $100 off | $299 | Amazon | ⚡ Thi . s is arguably my wife's favorite sports tech gadget. She uses it pretty much daily. Thus, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention this deal. Also, please don't tell her, she might just buy another one.. | |
 | Garmin Instinct 2/2S Surf - $100 Off | From $299 | Amazon | REI | |
 | Apple TV 4K (32GB) for Zwift - $50 off | $79 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ I use this for almost all my Zwifting. This is a fantastic deal, which runs Zwift, RGT, FulGaz, Rouvy, and more. While Apple just released their newest version (2022), virtually no cycling apps have taken advantage of it yet. And thus for now, the edition on sale for $79 seems like a steal. | |
| Garmin Instinct 2 Series - $100 Off | From $249 | Amazon | REI | ⚡This is the first time we've seen the Garmin Instinct 2 series devices (all variants) on sale. The Instinct 2 base is from $249 (on Amazon), a very solid deal - especially with all the major software updates it's had over the last year. |

 | DJI FPV Combo - $300 off! | $899 | Amazon | ⚡This deal is on DJI's larger FPV drone, the original one. They've also got the smaller but less powerful one too - Avata, which isn't on sale. This is for the FPV combo deal, saving you $400. This includes the drone, FPV goggles, and controller. | |
 | Skydio 2+ Starter Kit - $200 off! $999/$1349 | $899 | N/A | Skydio Site | In terms of autonomy and self-following from a drone, nothing beats Skydio today. |
 | Elite Tuo Smart Trainer - $233 off! $580 | $347 | Amazon | REI | ⚡This is by far the lowest price we've seen on the wheel-on Tuo. While most trainers have shifted towards direct drive, this is a good option at the lower end. |
 | Scosche RHYTHM+ 2.0 - 44% off! $79 | $49 | Amazon | ||
| Garmin Instinct 2/2S Solar - $50 Off | From $399 | Amazon | REI | |
 | Wahoo KICKR AXIS Feet - 40% off | $47 | REI | This is the lowest price we've ever seen on the Wahoo KICKR AXIS feet, which, if on a hard surface like concrete, will give your KICKR bike slightly more movement side to side. Note these come built-in to the KICKR 2020/2022, but you can install the AXIS feet on all Wahoo KICKR units (not CORE/SNAP). | |
 | Saris H3 (Hammer 3) Smart Trainer - $260 off! $1,099 | $639 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | While not quite as low as some of the crazy clearance deals this past summer, this is still a good deal overall. |

| Wahoo ELEMNT ROAM V1 - $200 off $379 | $199 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡This is the slightly older ROAM V1, which isn't quite as fancy as the new V2. Still, $200 off is a very solid deal, and it, recently got the new Wahoo Summit Segments feature, as well as other features - so it's still getting the majority (if not all) new firmware features. |
| Elite Suito-T Smart Trainer - $340 off! $799 (incl cassette) | $509 | Amazon | REI | This is by far the lowest price we've ever seen on the Elite Suito or Suito-T trainers. Note: The Suito-T is the same exact trainer as the Suito, except without the cassette pre-installed. |
| GoPro Hero 11 Black - $100 off $499 | $399 | Amazon | ⚡ Amazon now has the Hero 11 Black for $100 off the retail price of $499. This does *NOT* require the GoPro subscription (previously called GoPro Plus). The Hero 11 has become my daily action cam (well, actually, I bought two of them). | |
| Polar Pacer Pro - $80 off! $329 | $219 | Amazon | ⚡I believe this is the first time we've seen the Polar Pace Pro on sale. Note - specifically the red/white one is $219, the others are $230-$240. | |

| Garmin inReach 2 Mini Satellite Communicator (2-way) - $75 off | $327 | Amazon | REI | This is the first time we've seen this unit on sale, as it only came out earlier this year. It's my defacto satellite communicator when out of coverage area, and I've used it on a number of major treks this year out of cell range already. |
 | Saris H3 Bundle - $280 off! | $719 | REI | While not quite as low as some of the crazy clearance deals this past summer, this is still a good deal overall. Bundle includes pre-installed cassette, sweat guard, and ANT+ USB stick. | |
 | Therabody Theragun Mini - 21% off | $159 | Amazon | My wife uses the Theragun Elite, which is a bit larger than this Mini model, and also includes more tips. But, as noted - people seem happy with all these models. | |
| Polar Pacer - 15% off! | $170 | Amazon | I believe this is the first time we've seen the Polar Pace (base unit) on sale. Note - specifically the black/grey people. | |
| Samsung T7 Portable SSD 1-2TB - 36% off | $89 | Amazon | I use a small fleet of these T7 SSD's for various video projects, alongside the Sandisk SSD's. I literally have one of each color, just to keep things simple. They work great for quick storage. Note: Different colors have different sale prices - I don't understand why. | |
 | Little Tikes Pelican Explore & Fit Cycle - 38% off | $59 | Amazon | ⚡So, the Three Peanuts (girls ages 3/5/6) have used this for over a year now, abd they love it. It's silly simple (there's no real connectivity here), and the videos they ride with are also absurdly laughable. Yet, they love it. Seriously, they fight over it. | |
| Polar H10 Chest Strap (Dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart) - 40% off $89 | $54 | Amazon | ⚡So this has been fluctuating all day between $54 and $75. So it's a bit of luck of the draw. Either way- these are super low prices and great straps. This is one of my main chest straps I use as a reference device in testing. Works great! | |
| Stages Bike SB20 - $700 off! $2899 | $1,799 | N/A | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ A very solid deal, making it the least expensive smart bike out there, despite being probably the best built one. (Note: While this sale is marked as 43% off, the reality is most of the time the price hovers around $2,300-2,500) - still, by far the lowest price we've ever seen). |
 | Tacx NEO Bike Smart V1 - $470 off! $3,199 | $2,719 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | This is the V1 version, whereas the new Tacx NEO Bike Plus came out this past week with some very minor tweaks, however, that bike is $3,999 ($1,300 more than this!). Thus, this kinda looks like a steal. |
 | Polar Ignite 2 - 22% off $229 | $179 | Amazon | While the Polar Ignite 3 just came out, this is a reasonable deal on the older model. | |
| Garmin Fenix 7 Solar Sapphire - $250 off! | $751 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ While most of the Fenix 7 series is $100 off, this particular unit is $250 off, which is a massive savings! | |

| SanDisk 256GB Extreme PRO SD Cards - 18% off | $51 | Amazon | I use the SanDisk Extreme Pro SD Cards exclusively for all my video/photo shooting on my Panasonic GH5 and Nikon cameras (video and stills), including up to 6K recording with the GH5. I've mostly used 128's, but more and more lately I'm filling up cards faster with higher bitrates, so this sale is gonna have me pickup a bunch of the 256GB ones instead. The 128GB/ 512GB/1TB ones are also on sale too viathe same link. Note that usually I wait till these are about $40-45, so this is a good, but not yet fantastic deal. | |
| Garmin Varia Radar (RTL515) - $50 off $199 | $149 | Amazon | REI | This is Garmin's standalone radar/taillight option, and $149 is pretty much the standard sale-price. This product is universally loved, and works with Garmin/Wahoo/Stages/Hammerhead/Bryton, and other bike computers. |
| Apple Watch Ultra - $50 off! | $749 | Amazon | ⚡This is only the second time we've seen the Apple Watch Ultra on sale, and appears to be for all band styles as well! And it's not only in-stock, but even for same-day delivery in some areas. | |
 | Panasonic LUMIX GH6 Digital Camera - $500 off! | $1,697 | Amazon | I use two of the previous edition of this (the GH5) as the workhorses for all of the video production I do in the DCR Cave. One is my main camera (A-cam), and one is my overhead/b-roll camera (B-cam). I'm not quite ready to upgrade those cameras yet, but, the last time I did, I did it with a Black Friday sale. It was an expensive day. | |
| Peloton Bike - $300 off! | $1,145 | Amazon | This deal is direct with Amazon, rather than Peloton. It doesn't include the weights like the bundle from Peloton directly, though, it does offer basically next-day free delivery. | |
 | Withings ScanWatch - Hybrid Smartwatch & Activity Tracker - 20% off | $239 | Amazon | ||
 | RunScribe Red Gait Lab Footpods - 20% off | RunScribe Site | While RunScribe has transitioned from a consumer-focused running efficiency company to more of a pro/labs-focused company, consumers do still buy and use their products. They're offering 20% off for Black Friday. Use discount code RED20. | ||
 | Peak Designs Universal Bar Mount - 10% off | $44 | Amazon | ⚡We use this as a floater bike mount for the Peak Designs case. Sometimes i use it on my road bike, mountain bike, and just commuter bikes. | |
| Garmin Venu SQ & Venu SQ Music - 40% off $199/$249 with Music | From $119 | Amazon | ||
| Garmin Vivoactive 4 - $150 off $299 | From $176 | Amazon | REI | |
| Garmin Edge 830 Cycling GPS - $50 off $399 | $349 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ While this isn't a big sale, it's actually the lowest price the unit has been offered in the 3 years since release - matching Black Friday from this past year. |
 | Garmin Fenix 6 Sapphire - $280 off | $470 | Amazon | ||
 | Garmin Forerunner 245 - $80 off $299/$349 | $220 | Amazon | ||
 | Garmin Fenix 6S Pro Solar - 43% off | $339 | Amazon | ⚡This is really an incredible deal. You've got a full mapping capable and everything-else unit for $339. When you compare that to their competitors, even their newest products - some of which cost $500-$600, it's not even close. Sure, this is last year's model, but man, it's insane. | |
| Wahoo KICKR Core Smart Trainer - $200 off! $899 | $699 | N/A | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡This is the lowest price we've actually ever seen on the KICKR CORE. While the new Zwift Hub came out that's relatively similar and cheaper, the KICKR CORE is a better option if you want to combine it with the Wahoo CLIMB, or, if you need multichannel Bluetooth. |
 | Garmin Fenix 6S Pro - 43% off | $339 | Amazon | ||
 | SAMSUNG Galaxy Buds 2 Pro Earbuds - $40 off! | $199 | Amazon | ||

| Ooni Fyra 12 Wood Fired Outdoor Portable Pizza Oven - $70 off! | $279 | Amazon | ⚡ I know, I know, I still owe everyone a review. Nonetheless, more than a year later, I love this thing. We use it for more than pizza too, notably steaks (to get a really crispy sear). But a lot of pizza. It's completely portable, even easily fitting on our cargo bike. Note that I went with this model, the cheapest one they make, as I realized that buying the higher-end models that that support gas didn't make much sense for me. I have a gas grill already (and could easily just put a stone on it). Similarly, while a large 16" is appealing, realistically I've found this 12" more than enough for pretty substantial personal pizzas (and it makes it easier to handle). Full in-depth review pretty soon...probably. | |
 | Peak Designs Phone Case - 30% off | $27 | Amazon | ⚡This is the phone case both my wife and I use for our phones, and it's got a bike-mount compatible system. I used to use the Quadlock cases, and those are fine, but I just like how slim these ones are, as well as the fact there's no rotation when unlock it from the handlebars. Plus, I like the cloth-look to it. | |
| Garmin Venu 2 Plus - $100 off! $449 | $349 | Amazon | REI | This is the first sale we've seen on the Venu 2 Plus since it launched earlier this year. |
| Garmin Epix Sapphire Black Titanium (Gen 2) - $130 Off | $869 | Amazon | REI | ⚡This is the first time we've seen the Epix on sale! This is Garmin's AMOLED equivalent to the Fenix 7 series, and people continue to be super happy with it since it announced earlier this year. This Sapphire edition includes multiband GPS, for higher levels of accuracy. |
 | Garmin Fenix 6 Pro Solar - 49% off | $382 | Amazon | ||
 | Garmin Quatix 7 Multisport Marine Smartwatch - all models- $100 off | From $596 | Amazon | ||
| Google Nest Cam Indoors - 30% off | $69 | Amazon | We have more Nest cam's than I can count. No really, we have half a dozen at the DCR Cave alone, plus more at home. We love them. Nest Cam's really only go on sale about 1-2x per year. | |
 | Peloton Heart Rate Band - 30% off $89 | $63 | Amazon | Previously, I'd have said the Peloton Heart Rate Band wasn't really worth it at $90 compared to most other options. But at $67 it's basically the same as others, except has the integration with Peloton's Heart Rate Zone (if you have the Peloton app/gear). | |
| Garmin Epix Sapphire White Titanium (Gen 2) - $200 Off | $899 | Amazon | REI | ⚡This is the first time we've seen the Epix on sale! This is Garmin's AMOLED equivalent to the Fenix 7 series, and people continue to be super happy with it since it announced earlier this year. This Sapphire edition includes multiband GPS, for higher levels of accuracy. |
| Garmin Epix (Gen 2) - $100 off $899/$999 | $799 | Amazon | REI | ⚡This is the first time we've seen the Epix on sale! This is Garmin's AMOLED equivalent to the Fenix 7 series, and people continue to be super happy with it since it announced earlier this year. |
 | Garmin Venu 2 - $100 Off $399 | $299 | Amazon | REI | |
| Garmin Venu 2S - $100 off | $299 | Amazon | REI | |
| Garmin Edge 1040 Solar - $50 off | $695 | Amazon | This is the first time we've seen the Edge 1040 Solar on sale, so while $50 isn't a huge amount off this device, it is notable. This is Garmin's top-end and just released this past summer, cycling GPS bike computer. | |
| Nest Cam Outdoors - $60 off | $119 | Amazon | We use one of these and so far after I think just about four years, it's working great for us. Love it, and works better than trying to stick a regular Nest Cam out the window (since it'll reflect both during daytime and at night with the IR sensor). | |
 | Garmin Fenix 6X Pro Solar - 40% off | $538 | Amazon | ||
 | Peak Designs Out-Front Bike Mount - 10% off | $62 | Amazon | This i the out-front bike mount we use on our cargo bikes for the Peak Designs case. | |
 | Garmin Forerunner 735XT - $220 off $349 | $129.99 | Amazon | ||
| Fitbit Inspire 3 - 33% off! | $69 | Amazon | ⚡⚡This is a really good deal. First, it's only like 2 months old. Second, it's actually a legit good product. Arguably the best product Fitbit has made in years, in terms of functionality/accuracy/etc... and 3rd, it's priced super well if you want all the features of a Fitbit, without the cost. Note - You don't need a subscription, I did my entire review without one, so you can see what that looks like. | |
 | Garmin Vivofit Jr. 2 - Incl Disney/Avengers/Star Wars variants - 25% off $79 | $60 | Amazon | These are Garmin's kids activity trackers, which all of our kids use (mostly our 5yo, the 6yo uses the Vivofit Jr. 3) | |
 | Apple TV Elago R1 (2021 Edition) Remote Case- 64% off | from $6.39 | Amazon | I use Apple TV for Zwift the vast majority of the time, but also just for watching YouTube/Netflix/etc on the trainer. The Apple TV remote sucks though. This $10 case fixes that, it's a silicone strap that makes it easy to grab, but also has a strap to easily place on the edge of your handlebars. Boom! Note: This one is for Apple TV 4K 2021 Edition! | |
 | Garmin Forerunner 245 Music - $100 off | $249 | Amazon | ||
 | Garmin Forerunner 45/45S - $40 off $199 | $129 | Amazon | ||
 | Saris H4 (Hammer 4) Smart Trainer - $200 off! $999 | $799 | Amazon | This is their newest model that came out this past fall, though, I still don't have a unit to test, due to them having some issues with it. Thus, a bit of buyer beware. | |
 | Garmin Vivoactive 4S - $150 off | From 176 | Amazon | REI | |
| Apple Watch Ultra - 8% off! | $739 | Amazon | ⚡This is the very first sale we've seen on the Apple Watch Ultra, and appears to be for all band styles as well! And it's not only in-stock, but even for same-day delivery in some areas. | |
 | Peloton Bike Bundle - $600 off | $1,145 | Peloton Site | This is the base Peloton Bike, plus some $600 in accessories. Even if you exclude the accessories, it's still about $300 cheaper than the bike by itself. The accessories include the shoes, water bottle, bike mat, workout mat, and two weights. I use the base Peloton Bike quite a bit, in fact, just an hour ago before adding this to the list. | |
 | Cycliq Fly6 & Fly12 Sport (Bundle) - 25% off | $530 | Cycliq Site | This is a bundle with both the Fly6 (2021 edition), and the Fly12 Sport (2022 edition), along with some cases/SD cards/etc... There is also single-unit bundles too. | |
| FORM Swim Goggles (with heads-up display) - 20% off | $182 | Amazon | Form Site | This includes both the goggle, and a 1-year membership to their training/coaching platform. |
 | Fitbit Versa 2 - 34% off | $99 | Amazon | ||
 | Peloton Row - Bundle with $300 in accessories free | $3,320 | Peloton Site | While the Peloton Row just started shipping last week, Peloton has already put a bundle on for sale, inclusive of about $300 in accessories. Well, technically speaking you have to pay $20 extra for those accessories, but hey...close enough. Note Peloton has stated/confirmed there will be no 'bigger discounts' on products during this holiday period. | |
 | 2021 Apple MacBook Pro (14", M1 Pro) - 20% off | From $1,599 | Amazon | This is the exact model I have and use for almost all my video editing (2021 MacBook Pro with 1TB space,). I actually initially bought a 16" M1 Max variant, and then quickly realized it was totally overkill both in size and spec, so I went back and got the 14" M1 Pro and have been super happy with it - even while editing complex drone/action cam videos with 3-4 concurrently 4K streams in a multicam configuration, it has zero issues. | |
| Jackery Portable Power Station - $50 off | $299 | Amazon | This is something I use frequently when shooting out and about and I need to re-charge a crapton of drone batteries, action cameras, or just cameras and such. I also use it on trips to Eurobike and elsewhere to keep equipment charged. I've even bought a solar panel to hook up to it (surprisingly effective). Heck, I've even powered a KICKR trainer ride from it! | |
 | Garmin Vivofit Jr. 3 - 22% off | $69 | Amazon | My oldest daughter (6yo) uses this as her daily watch. She's happy with it. | |
| 4iiii Precision Ride-Ready Power Meters - 15-25% off | $242 | 4iiii Site | This includes the Shimano DuraAce, Ultegra, and 105 units, at between 15-25% off depending on which exact model you select. | |
| Lasko High Velocity Pro-Performance Fan (U15617) - 19% off | $77 | Amazon | This is one of the most popular indoor trainer fans out there, which rivals the Wahoo Headwind fan but cost a fraction of the price. Of course, it lacks ANT+/Bluetooth integration, but realistically if you really want that you can add a smart outlet for $10 to toggle it on/off from your phone if need be. I've actually got this fan in the DCR Cave recently on advice of many people. | |
| Fitbit Charge 5 - 33% off $149 | $99 | Amazon | ||
| Fitbit Sense 2 - 33% off | 199 | Amazon | REI | |
 | DJI Mini 2 Fly More Combo - 20% off ($90 off) | $509 | Amazon | This is a great little drone for quick shots that doesn't weigh much, or take up much space. While the Active Tracking capabilities (for sports) are fairly limited, you can make it follow briefly for creative shots. I've got an entire video on that in my review. Note: Ths is a one-day-only sale. | |
 | Indoor Cycling Desk - 14% off | $102 | Amazon | This is one of my favorite trainer desks, easily beating the Wahoo KICKR Desk, because it's got wheel locks and water bottle holders. Simple things. | |
 | SanDisk Extreme Pro 256GB MicroSD Card - 20% off! | $40 | Amazon | ⚡I use this card in both 128GB and 256GB variety (but mostly 256GB nowadays), and it's perfect for all my drones and action cams, easily recording 4K/60 and 5K/30, as well as 5.7K without trouble. I often pick up these cards when on sale like this, so I have them for later in the year when not on sale. // Update: Since this sale has begun, I've bought 6 of these cards to stockpile for future action cam/drone testing. | |
 | Wahoo KICKR V5/2020 - $400 off! $1,199 | $799 | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡This is by far the lowest price any Wahoo KICKR has ever been (excluding CORE/SNAP obviously). If you don't care about built-in WiFi, there's little reason to spend $1,299 for the newer V6 unit that came out a few months ago. | |
 | CORE Body Temp Sensor - 20% off | $214 | CORE Site | The CORE Body temp sensor measures your body core, and is used by numerous Pro Cycling teams. I haven't gotten a full review up, but have been using it on/off over the last year. It's pretty fascinating stuff. I believe this is the first sale they've had. On the sale side, they also have a bundle with a chest HRM as well that's on sale. | |
 | Garmin Enduro 2 - $200 off! $1,099 | $901 | Amazon | ⚡⚡This is an incredible deal, since this watch just came out three months ago, and is basically the highest end Fenix 7X variant, but with even longer battery life. This is an Amazon-specific sale, not a Garmin one, so I don't expect this to last. | |
| Apple Watch Ultra - 8% off! | $739 | Amazon | ⚡This is the very first sale we've seen on the Apple Watch Ultra, and appears to be for all band styles as well! And it's not only in-stock, but even for same-day delivery in some areas. | |
 | Garmin Venu GPS Smartwatch - $100 off $299 | $199 | Amazon | Officially this is 50% off, but realistically this is like $50-$100 off on a good day. It's now a few revisions behind, but it's still a solid little watch. | |
| Garmin HRM-DUAL (ANT+/Bluetooth Smart Strap) - 36% off! $69 | $45 | Amazon | ⚡ This is one of my go-to straps these days (ANT+ & two concurrent BLE connections). It's floated on and off being on sale, but this is about the lowest we've seen it. | |
 | Beats Fit Pro - 20% off | $159 | Amazon | While I haven't used this myself, they are super popular, and realistically, it's the fitness-focused upgrade variant of my Beats Studio Buds I use. | |
| GoPro HERO11 Black Creator Edition - $150 off | $549 | Amazon | Includes HERO11 Black, Volta (Battery Grip, Tripod, Remote), Media Mod, Light Mod, Enduro Battery, and Carrying Case. | |
 | Fitbit Ace 3 Activity - 38% off | $49 | Amazon | ||
 | Philips Hue Smart Lighting - 20% off | Varies | Amazon | Almost all Hue stuff is 20% off, and what's not seems to have the 15% coupon option offered. So this is a good deal. We use a surprising amount of Philips Hue lights - both at home and at the DCR Cave. Albeit, I'd say it's surgically 'strategic' in how we use them. At home, the entire outside garden is Hue, mainly because it's frankly the easiest way to control a bunch of lights illuminating specific areas/plants from inside our house. Inside the house, we mainly use them in a few rooms that are street-facing, to fake being away. The kids room also have a single color light too, for fun every once in a while. Meanwhile, at the DCR Cave, I use them for set lighting. Both a static set (the Gondola for the QC Corner Series), but also behind trainers for certain scenes, as well as behind various product shots. Again, not everything is Hue, it's highly strategic, and color-focused. White-only stuff is usually the cheaper Ikea. In any case, with this sale I picked up the Hue Go, and some 5-meters of lightstrip for a fun idea. | |
 | Skydio 2+ Battery - Buy one/Get One Free (+$25 discount) | $90 | Skydio Site | This is a pretty impressive deal. This is a $25 discount to $90, then it's buy one, get one free. So $45. Drone batteries are never $45. This is solid! | |
 | DJI Mavic Mini Fly More Combo Kit - 40% off | $299 | Amazon | This is a very solid deal, albeit for an older product. Note the price seems to be fluctuating a bit between $299 an $399 - so just keep an eye out for it. | |
 | Withings Sleep Tracking Pad - 31% off | $89 | Amazon | Fun tidbit: I actually use this. Well, more specifically, I use the far older bedside clock version, but, the sensor is essentially the same. Simply that the new sensor doesn't require a bedside clock anymore. But, if you don't like wearing a wearable to bed, then this will still track all your nighttime stats. | |
 | GoPro Hero 11 Black - $100 off | $449 | Amazon | GoPro HERO11 Black Accessory Bundle - Includes Extra Enduro Battery (2 Total), The Handler (Floating Hand Grip), Headstrap + Quick Clip, and Carrying Case. | |
 | Frontier X2 Smart Heart Monitor - 26% off | $405 | Amazon | Note: I haven't reviewed this yet. It's on my eventual list. | |
 | Stryd V2 Running Pod - $41 off | $228 | Stryd Store | Stryd pretty much only puts their items on once a year at Black Friday, so if you're in the market for one, now's the time. This is their latest gen unit that just announced this past fall. | |
| Favero Assioma Duo Power Meter Pedals - $200 off! $459/$719 (single/dual) | $569 | N/A | Favero Site | ⚡ This is a strong deal from Favero, who is offering their Favero Assioma Duo pedals for $200 off. |
 | Garmin Bounce LTE Kids Tracker - $10 off plus free book | $139 | Garmin Site | This just came out, like, last week. So, $10 off isn't much, but hey, it does come with a free kids sports-focused book. While my review isn't quite out yet, we've been using the Garmin Bounce trackers for a few weeks now with our daughters, and overall it does the job super well. Also, we've been reading the book at night to our girls - they love it. | |
 | InsideRide E-Flex Motion Accessory - $50 off | Varies | Inside Ride | All InsideRide Products are $50 off with DISC50 coupon code. | |
| Garmin Rally RK200 (LOOK KEO Dual Sided) - $220 off | $880 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ This is a very solid deal, and only the third time we've seen it on sale since launch in spring 2021.

| Wahoo POWRLINK ZERO (Single-sided) - $200 off! | $520 | N/A | REI | ⚡This is only the second time we've seen the POWRLINK Zero pedals on sale, and thus far, about 4-5 months since launch - people seem really happy with them. This deal is via REI for REI members using the coupon code GEARUP22 - and ends Nov 21st! |

 | Wahoo KICKR MAT - 20% off | $64 | Amazon | REI | I mean, I guess, if you really wanted this specific mat, it's a perfectly functional KICKR-themed mat. This deal is via REI for REI members using the coupon code GEARUP22 - and ends Nov 21st! |
| Wahoo POWRLINK ZERO (Dual-sided) - $200 off! $649/$999 | $800 | N/A | REI | ⚡This is only the second time we've seen the POWRLINK Zero pedals on sale, and thus far, about 4-5 months since launch - people seem really happy with them (as am I, it's become part of my testing rotation due to strong accuracy).

| Peloton Row - Bundle with $300 in accessories free | $3,220 | Peloton Site | While the Peloton Row just started shipping last week, Peloton has already put a bundle on for sale, inclusive of about $300 in accessories. Well, technically speaking you have to pay $20 extra for those accessories, but hey...close enough. | |
| Ooni Fyra 12 Wood Fired Outdoor Portable Pizza Oven - 70% off! | $90 | Amazon | ⚡⚡⚡ Holy crap - $90??!?! - I know, I know, I still owe everyone a review. Nonetheess, more than a year later, I love this thing. We use it for more than pizza too, notably steaks (to get a really crispy sear). But a lot of pizza. It's completely portable, even easily fitting on our cargo bike. Note that I went with this model, the cheapest one they make, as I realized that buying the higher-end models that that support gas didn't make much sense for me. I have a gas grill already (and could easily just put a stone on it). Similarly, while a large 16" is appealing, realistically I've found this 12" more than enough for pretty substantial personal pizzas (and it makes it easier to handle). Full in-depth review pretty soon....maybe...perhaps. | |
| Apple Watch Series 8 - $50 off! $399/$499 (cellular) | $349 | Amazon | This is the first sale we've seen on the new Apple Watch Series 8, less than a month old! | |
| GoPro Hero 11 Black - $50 off $499 | $449 | Amazon | Amazon now has the Hero 11 Black for $50 off the retail price of $499. This does *NOT* require the GoPro subscription (previously called GoPro Plus). However, if you want to subscribe to that, then you can get the camera for $399 instead. Food for thought. Either way, the Hero 11 has become my daily action cam (well, actually, I bought two of them). | |
| Jackery Portable Power Station - $130 off | $209 | Amazon | This is something I use frequently when shooting out and about and I need to re-charge a crapton of drone batteries, action cameras, or just cameras and such. I also use it on trips to Eurobike and elsewhere to keep equipment charged. I've even bought a solar panel to hook up to it (surprisingly effective).

 | Wahoo BOLT V1 - 25% off $229 | $169 | Amazon | Despite being a 5 year old bike computer, it's a solid little choice that's still actually getting (some) firmware updates. This price seems about right to me. | |
| Garmin Vivofit Jr. 2 - Incl Disney/Avengers/Star Wars variants - 15% off $79 | $59 | Amazon | ||
 | Polar Ignite GPS 1 - 31% off $229 | $158 | Amazon | ||

| Polar Grit X Pro - 32% off $499/$599 | $338 | Amazon | This is the lowest we've seen the Polar Grit X Pro to date, which is essentially Polar's top-end GPS watch. | |
| Garmin Venu SQ - 40% off $199/$249 with Music | $149 | Amazon | This is a pretty solid price on this watch, almost matching last year's Black Friday sale at $129. The Venu SQ 2 came out a few weeks back, hence the lower price here. | |
| SanDisk 256GB Extreme PRO SD Cards - 34% off | $42 | Amazon | I use the SanDisk Extreme Pro SD Cards exclusively for all my video/photo shooting on my Panasonic GH5 and Nikon cameras (video and stills), including up to 6K recording with the GH5. I've mostly used 128's, but more and more lately I'm filling up cards faster with higher bitrates, so this sale is gonna have me pickup a bunch of the 256GB ones instead. The 128GB/512GB/1TB ones are also on sale too viathe same link. | |
| Polar Ignite 2 - 10% off $229 | $209 | Amazon | ||
| Garmin Fenix 6 Pro Series - From $398 $549-$1,149 | $398 | Amazon | Obviously, the Fenix 6 isn't the latest anymore, but these are still very capable watches - and most recently got the new HRV Status as well as a smaller pile of features. | |
| Wahoo RIVAL GPS Watch - 25% off $199 | $247 | Amazon | ||
| Samsung T7 Portable SSD 1-2TB - 21% off | $94 | Amazon | I use a small fleet of these T7 SSD's for various video projects, alongside the Sandisk SSD's. I literally have one of each color, just to keep things simple. They work great for quick storage. | |
| Apple TV 4K (32GB) for Zwift - $70 off | $109 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ I use this for almost all my Zwifting. This is a fantastic deal for the latest edition, which runs Zwift, RGT, FulGaz, Rouvy, and more. | |
| Polar H10 Chest Strap (Dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart) - 25% off $89 | $75 | Amazon | This is a great dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart (with two Bluetooth Smart connections) chest strap that you'll often find me using as a reference strap in heart rate sensor testing. We only tend to see deals on it around Black Friday, always topping out around 20%. Note, the medium- size is the one on sale. | |
| Peloton Heart Rate Band - 25% off $89 | $67 | Amazon | Previously, I'd have said the Peloton Heart Rate Band wasn't really worth it at $90 compared to most other options. But at $67 it's basically the same as others, except has the integration with Peloton's Heart Rate Zone (if you have the Peloton app/gear). | |
| Garmin Vivoactive 4 - $120 off $299 | $189 | Amazon | ⚡ This is Garmin's general-purpose sports/fitness watch, alongside the Garmin Venu 2 series. The Vivoactive 4 is getting a bit old now, but this is also the lowest price we've seen it to date. I've set it as $120 off, while Amazon says $140 off, but practically speaking it usually hovers around $300-$320 | |
| Peloton Guide - 15% off | $250 | Amazon | I've been using this on and off since spring, and I actually kind of like it. | |
| Peloton Bike - $215 off! | $1,230 | Amazon | I believe this is the lowest price we've ever seen on the original/base Peloton Bike model. Or if not the exact lowest, then certainly very close. This is still a solid bike, and actually one that I use at home (I have the newer Peloton Bike+ at the office). Both my wife and I use these bikes interchangeably, and while the Bike+ has a bigger screen and better accuracy, there's very little difference in the core Peloton experience. | |
 | Apple Watch Series 7 (41mm) - $100 off $399/$499 (cellular) | $299 | Amazon | ⚡This is a pretty solid deal. Obviously, we're probably less than a month from new Apple Watch units coming out (usually mid-September), but the Series 7 is getting all the new WatchOS 9 features, including the new triathlon mode and running power. | |
| Beats PowerBeats Studio Buds - $50 off $149 | $99 | Amazon | ⚡I've been using these since last summer, primarily on my indoor workouts, but also on some of my runs (for example, in testing out most watches with music). I like them and they've become my go-to buds. | |
| Apple TV 4K (32GB) for Zwift - $60 off | $119 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ I use this for almost all my Zwifting. This is a fantastic deal for the latest edition, which runs Zwift, RGT, FulGaz, Rouvy, and more. | |
 | Fitbit Luxe - 30% off | $99 | Amazon | ||
| Withings Sleep Tracking Pad - 30% off | $69 | Amazon | Fun tidbit: I actually use this. Well, more specifically, I use the far older bedside clock version, but, the sensor is essentially the same. Simply that the new sensor doesn't require a bedside clock anymore. But, if you don't like wearing a wearable to bed, then this will still track all your nighttime stats. | |
 | Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic - $50 off | $299 | Amazon | This is the latest edition that came out last fall, now on Wear OS. While the Watch 4 Classic has a few quirks, I'd argue it's the best wearable Samsung has made to date. | |
 | Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 - $75 off | $179 | Amazon | This is the latest edition that came out last fall, now on Wear OS, and this is the lowest price to date. | |
| Samsung T7 Portable SSD 1-2TB - 21% off | $109 | Amazon | I use a small fleet of these T7 SSD's for various video projects, alongside the Sandisk SSD's. I literally have one of each color, just to keep things simple. They work great for quick storage. | |
 | Insta360 GO2 Action Cam - 15% off | $262 | Amazon | Both the 32GB and newer 64GB versions are on sale, with the 32GB version being $262 as opposed to the usual $299. | |
 | Synology 4 bay NAS DiskStation DS920+ (Diskless) - $100 off | $449 | Amazon | ⚡ I use Synology NAS units for all my file storage at the DCR Cave. This unit is a slightly smaller variant of what I use (DS1817), but mainly just with less storage space. The DS920+ linked here is a solid deal at $110 off, though, keep in mind if just using for simple storage, the DS418 is cheaper (but doesn't support expansion units). Also, remember you'll need to add disks. I currently find 8TB units are the sweet spot on price vs capacity. | |
 | Garmin Forerunner 945 - $200 Off $599/599EUR | $379 | Amazon | ⚡Officially this is $200 off, but realistically the FR945 (non-LTE) floats at about $520 most of the year, so it's really only about $140 off the norm. Still, it's a pretty solid deal. Keep in mind the FR955 came out last month at $499 though. | |
| DJI Action 2 Dual-Screen Combo Edition - 45% off | $299 | Amazon | ||
 | Fitbit Inspire 2 - 33% off $99 | $66 | Amazon | ||
| Apple TV 4K (32GB) for Zwift - $70 off | $109 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ I use this for almost all my Zwifting. This is a fantastic deal for the latest edition (the lowest we've ever seen), which runs Zwift, RGT, FulGaz, Rouvy, and more. | |
 | Garmin Instinct Solar - $150 off $399/$449 | $199 | Amazon | ⚡ This is the best deal we've seen on the original Instinct Solar edition. Keep in mind the newer Instinct 2 series came out this past February, but at a significantly higher price than this. | |
| Suunto 9 Peak - $114 off $569 | $455 | Amazon | This is one of the first times we've seen the Suunto 9 Peak on sale, which came out last summer. | |
| Garmin Fenix 6S Pro - $200 off | $399 | Amazon | ⚡This is for the Garmin Fenix 6S Pro (which is the smaller one), and has the full maps/music/wifi, which the base model doesn't. At $399, it's the lowest price we've seen it. Keep in mind the Fenix 7 came out earlier this year, and the Forerunner 955 just last month. Still, for $399 it's hard to beat. | |
 | KOM Cycling Trainer Desk - 30% off | $69 | Amazon | I bought and reviewed this desk a year ago, and really like it. In fact, it's still the one I've been using lately (I also like the other ones too, but for no particular reason I never swapped back). It's especially great if you've got a small space. | |
 | Garmin Rally Power Meters - 10% off $649/$1,099 (SINGLE/DUAL) | From $999 | Amazon | This is a reasonably solid deal, since Garmin Rally isn't often on sale. This covers all the variants, so SPD, SPD-SL, and LOOK KEO compatible. | |
| DJI Air 2S Fly More Combo - $260 off | $1,039 | Amazon | This is DJI's latest mid-range drone (the highest-end consumer drone being the Mavic 3, and then the Mini 3 being the budget option that just came out). | |
| Garmin Venu SQ - $30 off! $199/$249 with Music | $159 | Amazon | ||
| Apple Watch Series 7 (45mm) - $120 off $399/$499 (cellular) | $309 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ This is now the lowest price we've seen on the unit, for Amazon Prime Day, down to $309 | |
| Apple TV 4K (64GB) for Zwift - $70 off | $129 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ I use this for almost all my Zwifting. This is a fantastic deal for the latest edition (the lowest we've ever seen), which runs Zwift, RGT, FulGaz, Rouvy, and more. There's no real reason to get the 64GB for Zwift compared to the 32GB, however with the sale, it's still far cheaper to get the 64GB than the 32GB when it's not ons ale. | |
 | SanDisk 256GB Extreme Pro microSD Card - 39% off $39 | $24 | Amazon | This is one of the two variants I use in all my gear (the other being the 256GB version, which doesn't appear on sale quite yet, but if you click this link you can see both variants, often it goes on sale for a few hours at a time). | |
 | Garmin Enduro - $300 off $799-$899 | $499 | Amazon | This is by far the lowest price we've seen on this watch. This is a watch purely focused on long battery life, at the expense of maps and music. | |
| Apple Watch Series 7 (41mm) - $120 off $399/$499 (cellular) | $279 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ This is now the lowest price we've seen on the unit, for Amazon Prime Day, down to $279 | |
| DJI Mini 2 Fly More Combo - 20% off ($120 off) | $479 | Amazon | This is a great little drone for quick shots that doesn't weigh much, or take up much space. While the Active Tracking capabilities (for sports) are fairly limited, you can make it follow briefly for creative shots. I've got an entire video on that in my review. | |
 | Garmin Varia RVR315 Radar - $50 off | $99 | Amazon | ⚡ This is the lowest price to date on this radar. This variant doesn't have a taillight, so it's a bit smaller as a result. Same radar tech though, and compatible with Garmin/Stages/Hammerhead/Wahoo bike computers. | |
 | Garmin Edge 1030 (with HR strap) - $200 off $499 | $449 | Amazon | This really isn't that great of a deal. It's often far less than this, and this unit is now 2 generations behind (Edge 1030 Plus came out two years ago, and the Edge 1040 came out last month). | |
| Garmin Venu 2 - $130 off | $269 | Amazon | ⚡⚡This is by far the lowest price we've seen on the Garmin Venu 2 series, which is Garmin's answer to the Apple Watch. The previous low is only $50 off. The Venu 2 Plus came out back in January, which adds voice/calling features, but otherwise the units are essentially the same. | |
| Garmin Venu 2 - $130 off $399 | $269 | Amazon | ⚡⚡This is by far the lowest price we've seen on the Garmin Venu 2 series, which is Garmin's answer to the Apple Watch. The previous low is only $50 off. The Venu 2 Plus came out back in January, which adds voice/calling features, but otherwise the units are essentially the same. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 245 Music - $50 off | $239 | Amazon | This is the lowest price we've seen to date on the FR245 music (the previous low was $249), though, keep in mind the Forerunner 255 just came out last month. | |
| Wahoo ELEMNT ROAM - $100 off $379 | $299 | Amazon | ⚡This is by far the lowest price we've seen on the Wahoo ELEMNT ROAM, down to $299, from it's usual $399. | |
| Withings Body+ WiFi Scale - 30% off | $69 | Amazon | I've long been a fan of the Withings WiFi scales, especially since they can connect/push data to so many platforms, including Zwift! Note that the Body+ simply includes more data. | |
 | Apple Airpods (3rd Gen) - $40 off! | $140 | Amazon | ||
| Beats PowerBeats Studio Buds - $50 off $149 | $99 | Amazon | ⚡I've been using these since this summer, primarily on my indoor workouts, but also on some of my runs (for example, in testing out most watches with music). I like them and they've become my go-to buds. | |
| Polar Grit X Pro - $120 off $499/$599 | $379 | Amazon | This is one of the first times we've seen the Polar Grit X Pro on sale, which came out last fall. | |
| Garmin Vivoactive 4S - $120 off | $188 | Amazon | ⚡ This is Garmin's general-purpose sports/fitness watch, alongside the Garmin Venu 2 series. The Vivoactive 4 is getting a bit old now, but this is also the lowest price we've seen it to date. I've set it as $120 off, while Amazon says $140 off, but practically speaking it usually hovers around $300-$320 | |
| Garmin Vivoactive 4 - $120 off $299 | $188 | Amazon | ⚡ This is Garmin's general-purpose sports/fitness watch, alongside the Garmin Venu 2 series. The Vivoactive 4 is getting a bit old now, but this is also the lowest price we've seen it to date. I've set it as $120 off, while Amazon says $140 off, but practically speaking it usually hovers around $300-$320 | |
| Garmin Fenix 6 Pro Series - $150 off $549-$1,149 | $449 | Amazon | This is for the Garmin Fenix 6 Pro variants, which means it has the full maps/music/wifi, which the base model doesn't. The Fenix 7 came out earlier this year, and the Forerunner 955 just last month. | |
| SanDisk 256GB Extreme PRO SD Cards - 52% off | $47 | Amazon | I use the SanDisk Extreme Pro SD Cards exclusively for all my video/photo shooting on my Panasonic GH5 and Nikon cameras (video and stills), including up to 6K recording with the GH5. I've mostly used 128's, but more and more lately I'm filling up cards faster with higher bitrates, so this sale is gonna have me pickup a bunch of the 256GB ones instead. The 128GB/512GB/1TB ones are also on sale too viathe same link. | |
 | Apple Airpods Pro - $80 off $249 | $169 | Amazon | ||
 | GoPro Hero 10 Black Battery Bundle - $150 off | $399 | Amazon | This is $399 (without any GoPro subscription required), and includes not just an extra battery, but the dual battery charger. Solid little deal! | |
 | Garmin HRM-PRO - 23% off! $129 | $99 | Amazon | The HRM-PRO is Garmin's top-end chest strap, which transmits Running Dynamics information, running power, as well as saves HR data during swims and other watch-less activities. | |
| Fitbit Charge 5 - $30 off $149 | $104 | Amazon | This is the lowest price we've seen on the Fitbit Charge 5 to date (by far). | |
| Beats PowerBeats Pro Wireless Sport Headphones - $50 off $249 | $199 | Amazon | I like the PowerBeats Pro with the over-the-ear design, for more security in workouts. I use these as well as my Beats Studio Buds (and have used the PowerBeats Pro ones longer). | |
| Saris H3 (Hammer 3) Smart Trainer - $405 off! $1,099 | $694 | Amazon | This is a very solid deal for this trainer, especially for ERG (workout) mode. It's not quite as good of a deal as the $400 price back a month ago in the fire-sale event they did. But hey, can't win em all. Note that Saris did put themselves up for sale two weeks ago. | |
 | Anker PowerCore III 10K Wireless Portable Charger with18W USB-C - 20% off | $39 | Amazon | I bought this unit this past spring and it's worked pretty well in my battery charging arsenal, especially for the summer season. Specifically, I went with this wireless charging bank because in the summer my phone often gets wet (and thus, the wired charging port needs to dry out a bit) - such as at the beach/lake/etc... This solves that, but can still fast-charge things wired too, for days my phone hasn't gone for a swim. | |
 | SanDisk 1-2TB Extreme PRO Portable External SSD - 60% off | $129-$180 | Amazon | ⚡This is one of the two the high speed drives I use to store the footage I'm actively video editing so that I can edit it on both my iMac at the office, and then my MacBook when traveling or at home. The 2TB version is $229 (50% off). | |
| Jackery Portable Power Station - $124 off | $175 | Amazon | This is something I use frequently when shooting out and about and I need to re-charge a crapton of drone batteries, action cameras, or just cameras and such. I also use it on trips to Eurobike and elsewhere to keep equipment charged. I've even bought a solar panel to hook up to it (surprisingly effective). Heck, I've even powered a KICKR trainer ride from it! | |
 | Adobe Creative Cloud (12 months) - $220 off | $479 | Amazon | I use Adobe Creative Cloud daily in editing, both photos as well as tidbits of video. But mostly photos. For video I primarily use Final Cut Pro, but occasionally Premier Pro. Point is, if you use Adobe Creative Cloud, you know this is a very solid deal (note the checkbox on the product page for the Prime savings). | |
| Garmin Epix Sapphire White Titanium - Actually in stock | $1,000 | N/A | REI | This isn't on sale at all, however, it might feel like it. Cause this is the first time since launch the Sapphire Editions are actually in-stock and at list prices. Thus, I figured I'd mention it here. 🤣🤣🤣 |
 | Garmin Forerunner 745 - $150 off $499/499EUR | $349 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ This is a solid deal on a very capable watch. More notably, it's also the watch I've long used when I'm not testing other things (and still use to compare things). While it doesn't have the onboard maps of the FR945, since I'm not traveling as much, it doesn't bother me. Of course, keep in mind that with all the Garmin units on sale, the price differences to map-inclusive units aren't very much. It's also the lowest price we've seen on the FR745 ever. |
| Garmin Feinx 6 Base - Just $299!!! $549-$1,149 | $299 | Amazon | ⚡⚡⚡This is an insane price, and by far the lowest we've ever seen for the Fenix 6 series. In this case it's the base unit, so it lacks music/maps/WiFi, but has Garmin Pay and countless other features. Plus, it's still getting feature updates - even as of last week. | |
| Garmin Varia Radar (RTL515) - $50 off | $149 | Amazon | REI | This is Garmin's standalone radar+taillight option, and $149 is pretty much the standard sale-price. While Garmin just announced their new RCT715 radar that includes a camera and taillight, that's $399 (and not on sale). |
| Garmin Venu 2/2S - $50 off $399 | $349 | Amazon | REI | Not too bad a deal. Nothing crazy, and not on the Venu 2 Plus with calling features. |
| Garmin Edge 1030 Plus - $150 off $599 | $449 | Amazon | REI | ⚡This is the lowest price we've seen to date on the Edge 1030 Plus, far surpassing last spring's $100 off sale. The Edge 1030 Plus came out June 2020, but has continued to receive numerous firmware updates/features, and is Garmin's top-end unit. |
 | Garmin Forerunner 945 LTE - $200 off $649 | $449 | Amazon | REI | ⚡This is by far the lowest price we've seen on the FR945 LTE. The previous sale last Black Friday was only $100 off. So this is solid! |
| Garmin Forerunner 55 - $30 off $199 | $169 | Amazon | REI | Oddly enough, this is actually the first record of a sale I have on the FR55. It's not a bad deal, but also not crazy either. |
| Garmin Forerunner 245 & 245 Music - $75 off $299/$349 | $225 | Amazon | REI | Both the Forerunner 245 & 245 Music are on sale for $75 off. This is neither a huge sale, nor the lowest we've seen them (previous low was $199 last Black Friday). |
| Garmin Forerunner 945 - $200 Off $599/599EUR | $399 | Amazon | REI | ⚡Officially this is $200 off, but realistically the FR945 (non-LTE) floats at about $520 most of the year, so it's really only about $120 off the norm. Still, a fantastic deal. |
| Garmin Epix Sapphire Black Titanium - Actually in stock | $1,000 | N/A | REI | This isn't on sale at all, however, it might feel like it. Cause this is the first time since launch the Sapphire Editions are actually in-stock and at list prices. Thus, I figured I'd mention it here. 🤣🤣🤣 |
| Wahoo POWRLINK ZERO (Dual-sided) - $200 off! $649/$999 | $800 | N/A | REI | ⚡This is the first time we've seen the POWRLINK Zero pedals on sale, and thus far, about 4-5 months since launch - people seem really happy with them (as am I, it's become part of my testing rotation due to strong accuracy). Requires REI membership, using coupon code with REI link here: ANNIV22 |
 | Saris TD1 Trainer Desk - $109 off | $251 | N/A | REI | This is the lowest price ever on this trainer desk with power, at 30% off. |
| Tacx Flux S Smart Trainer - $150 off! $749USD | $600 | N/A | REI | REI 20% sale, REI members use ANNIV22 code with REI link here to support site. |
| Ooni Fyra 12 Wood Fired Outdoor Portable Pizza Oven - $70 off! | $279 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ I know, I know, I still owe everyone a review. Nonetheess, almost a year later, I love this thing. We use it for more than pizza too, notably steaks (to get a really crispy sear). But a lot of pizza. It's completely portable, even easily fitting on our cargo bike. Note that I went with this model, the cheapest one they make, as I realized that buying the higher-end models that that support gas didn't make much sense for me. I have a gas grill already (and could easily just put a stone on it). Similarly, while a large 16" is appealing, realistically I've found this 12" more than enough for pretty substantial personal pizzas (and it makes it easier to handle). Full in-depth review pretty soon. (REI link at side seems to still have stock at the sale price) |
| Tacx NEO 2T Smart Trainer - $280 off! $1,399 | $1,120 | N/A | REI | REI 20% sale, REI members use ANNIV22 code with REI link here to support site. |
| Wahoo KICKR Bike - $270 off! $3,499 | $3,249 | N/A | REI | This is a pretty solid deal on the KICKR Bike, if for no other reason than we haven't really seen much in the way of KICKR Bike sales (except Zwift's clearance event recently). Note officially it lists the retail price as $3,800, but I don't think that's actually the real retail price lately. It's always been $3,500 |
| Garmin Rally XC200 (SPD) - $240 off! | $959 | N/A | REI | ⚡ This is a very solid deal, and only the second time we've seen it on sale.

In the US, it's only their older watches (non-Peak), whereas in Europe it includes the Peak watches. The older watches is pretty much normal everyday 30% off pricing for them (as has been the last 6-8 months). But the Peak ones are solid deals. |
| DJI Mavic 3 - $150 off $999 | $2,049 | Amazon | ⚡This is the first time we've seen the DJI Mavic 3 on sale (for a non-bundled deal). With all the firmware improvements since the fall, it's finally getting to a more stable place in terms of features. | |
| DJI Mavic 3 Fly More Combo - $150 off | $2,849 | Amazon | ⚡This is the first time we've seen the DJI Mavic 3 on sale (for a non-bundled deal). With all the firmware improvements since the fall, it's finally getting to a more stable place in terms of features. This is for the full bundle, which includes extra batteries (3 total), ND filters, extra props, and the battery charging station. Note this does not include the RC Pro remote (but does include the base/normal remote). | |
| DJI Action 2 Dual-Screen Combo Edition - $80 off | $439 | Amazon | All of the DJI Action 2 kits are 15-20% off (depending on the variant you choose), which is the first time we've seen the Action 2 on sale since launch. | |
| Elite Suito Smart Trainer - $170 off $799 (incl cassette) | $680 | N/A | REI | REI 20% sale, REI members use ANNIV22 code with REI link here to support site. |
| Fitbit Charge 5 - $30 off $149 | $129 | Amazon | This is more or less a standard sale for the Fitbit Charge 5. | |
| DJI FPV Combo - $300 off! | $999 | Amazon | This is only the 2nd time we've seen the FPV combo on sale, saving you $300. This includes the drone, FPV goggles, and controller. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 45/45S - $30 off $199 | $139 | Amazon | This is a good deal, though, keep in mind that the Forerunner 55 came out two years ago. So the 'normal' list price of $199 for the FR45 isn't really true anymore (that's the newer FR55 list price). Thus this is roughly $30 off. In any case, it's a great running watch. | |
 | DJI Mavic Air 2 Fly More Combo - $200 off | $799 | Amazon | This is a pretty solid deal, as we don't tend to see discounts this big on DJI drones except Black Friday-ish timeframe. | |
| Apple Watch SE - $30 off $279 | $249 | Amazon | This isn't a super big deal, but hey, if you're in the market, a deal is a deal. | |
| Apple Watch Series 7 - $70 off $399/$499 (cellular) | $329 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ This is now the lowest price we've seen on the unit (as of April 4th), for a one-day sale down to $329. | |
| Garmin Varia RVR315 Radar - $50 off | $99 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ This is the lowest price to date on this radar. This variant doesn't have a taillight, so it's a bit smaller as a result. Same radar tech though, and compatible with Garmin/Stages/Hammerhead/Wahoo bike computers. |
| Garmin Edge 830 Cycling GPS - $50 off $399 | $349 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ While this isn't a big sale, it's actually the lowest price the unit has been offered in the 3 years since release - matching Black Friday from this past year. |
 | Garmin Edge 830 Sensor Bundle - $50 off | $419 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ While this isn't a big sale, it's actually the lowest price the unit/bundle has been offered in the 3 years since release - matching Black Friday from this past year. |
 | Garmin Edge 530 MTB Bundle - $50 off | $319 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ This matches last year's Black Friday sale, and is the lowest price to date on the Edge 530 MTB Bundle. This is one of the main units I use for my day-to-day riding and testing. |
 | Garmin Edge 530 Sensor Bundle - $50 off | $349 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ This matches last year's Black Friday sale, and is the lowest price to date on the Edge 530 Sensor Bundle. This is one of the main units I use for my day-to-day riding and testing. |
| Garmin Edge 830 Sensor Bundle - $50 off | $449 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ While this isn't a big sale, it's actually the lowest price the unit/bundle has been offered in the 3 years since release - matching Black Friday from this past year. |
| Garmin Edge 530 Cycling GPS - $50 off! $299 | $249 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ This matches last year's Black Friday sale, and is the lowest price to date on the Edge 530. This is one of the main units I use for my day-to-day riding and testing. |
 | Suunto 5 GPS Multisport Watch - 40% off! $329 | $179 | Amazon | ⚡ A very strong deal for this complete multisport watch that I really like. Well nailed on price here. | |
| Garmin Instinct - $85 off $299 | $165 | Amazon | ⚡While this isn't quite as good as the $149 prices we saw a week or so ago, it's still pretty solid. Note that different colors vary slightly in prices. | |
| Elite Suito-T Smart Trainer - 10% off! $799 (incl cassette) | $722 | N/A | Competitive Cyclist | Note: The Suito-T is the same exact trainer as the Suito, except without the cassette pre-installed. |
| Polar H10 Chest Strap (Dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart) - 5% off $89 | $85 | Amazon | This is one of my main chest straps I use as a reference device in testing. Works great! | |
 | Garmin HRM-SWIM Strap - $45 off! | $54 | Amazon | This is the slightly older pool-focused HRM-SWIM strap. It's really just designed for the pool and to get accurate HR data. These days it's been replaced by the HRM-PRO, though even that doesn't quite have the same stickiness level as the HRM-SWIM did. | |
| Garmin Varia RVR315 Radar - $25 off | $125 | Amazon | This variant doesn't have a taillight, so it's a bit smaller as a result. Same radar tech though, and compatible with Garmin/Stages/Hammerhead/Wahoo bike computers. | |
 | Skydio 2 - $400 off $999/$1349 | $949 | Skydio Site | ⚡⚡ This is a pretty incredible deal. First, because it's really the first time it's been on sale. Second, because it's $400 off. And third, because it's actually in stock. It's by far the best drone for sports action footage, as it's fully autonomous. It's less ideal for general drone cinematography, however. So you kinda have to decide what you want out of a drone. But for sports, this is the one. | |
 | Wiral LITE Cable Cam with Remote - $100 off | $299 | Amazon | I've been using this nifty cable cam system for years with various action cameras, phones and small mirrorless cameras. It's not an everyday use item, but I do pull it out a handful of times per year for very specific/special shots through the trees (or the studio) where drones can't easily go. Defnitely more in the photo-geeky camp, but that's the camp I live in. | |
| Peloton Bike+ is $200 off | $2,295 | Amazon | This is a solid deal for the Bike+, following a $350 off deal over Black Friday. Both my wife and I use both the Peloton Bike+ and the regular Bike (one at home, one at office) on a weekly basis. We like both. The Bike+ is more accurate than the regular bike, and also has a bigger screen and automatic resistance control. That said, the core Peloton experience isn't any different between the two - it's the same platform there. | |
| Elite Direto XR Smart Trainer- $140 off! (In Stock) $1,000 | $849 | N/A | Competitive Cyclist | |
 | Insta360 One R Action Cam - 15% off | $467 | Amazon | The entire lineup of Insta360 One R action cams are 15% off, including the 1" and 360 variants. Overall it's a good cam with good picture clarity (I've mainly used the 1" 5.3K variant), but I find the software really lets it down. | |
| Apple Airpods Pro - $60 off $249 | $159 | Amazon | ⚡ By far the lowest price to date for this unit. Previously hovered around $179-$199 | |
| Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic - $50 off | $299 | Amazon | This is the latest edition that came out this past summer/fall, now on Wear OS, and the first time we've seen a notable sale on it. While the Watch 4 Classic has a few quirks, I'd argue it's the best wearable Samsung has made to date. | |
| Tacx NEO 2T Smart Trainer - $150 off! (In Stock) $1,399 | $1,249 | Amazon | ⚡ This is a very rare sale for this trainer, if you're in the market, I wouldn't wait around for these units to disappear. Note it was slightly less on Black Friday at $200 off, but hey, a deal is a deal at this point. | |
| SanDisk Extreme Pro 256GB MicroSD Card - 39% off! | $43 | Amazon | ⚡I use this card in both 128GB and 256GB variety (but mostly 256GB nowadays), and it's perfect for all my drones and action cams, easily recording 4K/60 and 5K/30, as well as 5.7K without trouble. I often pick up these cards when on sale like this, so I have them for later in the year when not on sale. // Update: Since this sale has begun, I've bought 6 of these cards to stockpile for future action cam/drone testing. | |
 | Rode Microphones Wireless GO II Mics - 20% off | $279 | Amazon | These are the mics that I use day in and day out for virtually everything, but most notably, when out running/riding (and all my crazy drone wind tests). I used to use the Wireless Go (original) system, but this is great because it has memory in it. So I can record audio on this, and then match it up with the footage later - ideal if I've got GoPro's or drones or such that may not have great on-board audio by themselves. Note that Amazon says this is 20% off, but I think it's more like $20-$30 off the regular price, unless the price has gone up substantially. Either way, I love them. | |
| Google Nest Mesh WiFi Router - 30% two-pack | $200 | Amazon | These are the WiFi mesh access points I use both at home and the DCR Cave. Love them - I don't need to dork with them, they just work. Ironically enough, I literally just installed another one at home tonight (Nov 20th, 2021) to provide better coverage in a dead spot in our 100 year-old home, for realz. | |
 | Amazon Halo View - 38% off | $49 | Amazon | Look, this thing isn't even shipping yet and it's already 38% off. But hey, if you want a good deal on a pre-order product that we don't know much about yet, then here ya go! I have ordered one, and will review it once it comes in. | |
 | Suunto 7 Wear OS Watch - 42% off $399 | $229 | Amazon | Backcountry | ⚡ This is basically the lowest sale price we see for the Suunto 7 Wear OS powered watch. At this price, I'd say it's worth picking up, assuming you know the battery limitations and Wear OS version end of life limitations (meaning, this unit won't see any new versions of Wear OS). |
| Little Tikes Pelican Explore & Fit Cycle - 38% off | $99 | Amazon | So, the Three Peanuts (girls ages 2/4/5) have been testing this the last week, and so far, they love it. It's silly simple (there's no real connectivity here), and the videos they ride with are also absurdly laughable. Yet, they love it. Seriously, they fight over it. In-Depth review coming very very shortly. Until then, it's on sale (note: Add the 'Coupon' that shows up below the price to get the $99 price. | |
 | Fitbit Sense - $100 off! $329 | $199 | Amazon | REI | This is the lowest price to date for the Fitbit Sense, and makes it a deal you should definitely consider versus the Fitbit Versa 3 for the same price (no, really, there's no reason to get the Versa 3 at the same price). |
 | GoPro Hero 9 Black - $50 off $399 | $349 | Amazon | REI | This price makes it a reasonably good deal, and about $100 cheaper than the lowest GoPro Hero 10 price (if you're not a GoPro subscriber). The changes between the Hero 9 and Hero 10 for most people are fairly minor. Whereas if you're pushing the limits (either spec-wise or sport-wise), then the Hero 10 can be worth it. |
| 4iiii Precision Ride-Ready Power Meters - 14% off | $258 | Competitive Cyclist | This includes the Shimano DuraAce, Ultegra, and 105 units, at between 11-14% off depending on which exact model you select. | |
 | Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus Wireless Earbuds - 33% off | $99 | Amazon | ||
 | NordicTrack S22i Indoor Cycle Bike - $700 off | $1,499 | Amazon | This is considered the primary competitor to Peloton, and is generally rated/reviewed very highly. Note that I have not reviewed this bike, or ridden it. But I figured I'd mention it here in case folks are looking for a deal on it. With Peloton's new pricing, the base prices are basically the same - $1,495 for the Peloton Bike. Sorta like politics, people prefer one brand or the other. Also like Peloton - it DOES NOT support any open standards for apps like Zwift, TrainerRoad, etc... Do NOT buy it (or Peloton) for that purpose. | |
| SanDisk 1-2TB Extreme PRO Portable External SSD - 50% off | $129 | Amazon | ⚡This is one of the two the high speed drives I use to store the footage I'm actively video editing so that I can edit it on both my iMac at the office, and then my MacBook when traveling or at home. The 2TB version is $180 (50% off). | |
| Insta360 GO2 Action Cam - 13% off | $269 | Amazon | Both the 32GB and newer 64GB versions are on sale, with the 32GB version being $269 as opposed to the usual $299 | |
| DJI Mavic Mini Fly More Combo Kit - 24% off | $399 | Amazon | ||
| Ooni Fyra 12 Wood Fired Outdoor Portable Pizza Oven - 20% off | $279 | Amazon | ⚡ I love this thing. We use it for more than pizza too, notably steaks (to get a really crispy sear). But a lot of pizza. It's completely portable, even easily fitting on our cargo bike. Note that I went with this model, the cheapest one they make, as I realized that buying the higher-end models that that support gas didn't make much sense for me. I have a gas grill already (and could easily just put a stone on it). Similarly, while a large 16" is appealing, realistically I've found this 12" more than enough for pretty substantial personal pizzas (and it makes it easier to handle). Full in-depth review pretty soon. | |
| DJI FPV Combo - $250 off! | $999 | Amazon | This is the first time we've seen the FPV combo on sale, saving you $250. This includes the drone, FPV goggles, and controller. | |
| Saris H3 (Hammer 3) Smart Trainer - $240 off! $1,099 | $860 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ One of the top three trainers, but by far the top trainer on the market for ERG mode (so if you're a TrainerRoad user - this be the one!). | |
| Garmin HRM-DUAL (ANT+/Bluetooth Smart Strap) - $15 off $69 | $56 | Amazon | ⚡ This is one of my go-to straps these days (ANT+ & two concurrent BLE connections). It's floated on and off being on sale, but this is about the lowest we've seen it. | |
| NormaTec Pulse 2.0 Leg Recovery System - $100 off! | $799 | Amazon | While this isn't something I've personally used, I know a ton of you do very much love it. Go forth! | |
| Elite Tuo Smart Trainer - 7% off $580 | $492 | N/A | Competitive Cyclist | |
| Fitbit Charge 5 - $50 off $149 | $129 | Amazon | This is the first time we've seen the newly released Charge 5 on sale. Also of note is that just this week it got ECG support via a firmware update, and Fitbit Daily Readiness score via firmware update. | |
| Apple Airpods Pro - $53 off $249 | $197 | Amazon | Though, this price fluctuates as low as $159, so double-check the latest price to be sure it's now ower right now. | |
| Withings Body WiFi Scale - 12% off $59 | $52 | Amazon | I've always had a soft spot in my heart for the Withings WiFi Scale, they were the first in this category a gazillion years ago, and frankly, they're still basically the best in terms of partnerships and simplicity. It just works. | |
| Samsung T7 Portable SSD 1-2TB - 24% off | $129 | Amazon | I use a small fleet of these T7 SSD's for various video projects, alongside the Sandisk SSD's. I literally have one of each color, just to keep things simple. They work great for quick storage. | |
| Garmin Instinct Solar - $87 off $399/$449 | $312 | Amazon | There's also the non-solar version for $169, but keep in mind that's got significantly different features. In many ways, the Garmin Instinct Solar is kinda like a Garmin Instinct 2.0. | |
| Apple Airpods (2nd Gen) - $44 off $159 | $114 | Amazon | These aren't quite the newest generation (those came out a month or so ago), but they are $44 off, and the one I personally use myself. | |
| Suunto 9 Baro Series - 40% off $599 (non-baro is $499) | $369 | Amazon | At this point the Suunto 9 Baro has been surpassed by the Suunto 9 Peak. Still, if you prefer a bigger watch, it got most of the firmware updates of the Suunto 9 Peak anyway. | |
 | GoPro Hero 10 Black - $50 off $449 | $449 | Amazon | REI | Amazon now has the Hero 10 Black for $50 off the retail price of $499. This does *NOT* require the GoPro subscription (previously called GoPro Plus). However, if you want to subscribe to that, then you can get the camera for $399 instead. Food for thought. Either way, the Hero 10 has become my daily action cam (well, actually, I bought two of them). |
| Garmin Vivoactive 4S - $80 off | $219 | Amazon | ||
| Garmin Venu SQ - $30 off! $199/$249 with Music | $169 | Amazon | ||
 | Garmin RD Pod (Running Dynamics) - 11% off $69 | $62 | Amazon | Ok, this is a pretty minor deal, but I noticed it so...figured I'd pass it along. Allows you to get not just Running Dynamics metrics, but also running power, on Garmin devices (not all devices, but most devices). | |
| Garmin Vivoactive 4 - $70 off $299 | $229 | Amazon | ||
| Polar Grit X - $110 off $429 | $340 | Amazon | This is for certain editions (namey the white ones at the moment). Keep in mind the Grit X Pro came out a month or so ago, so that may limit new features for the Grit X going forward. | |
| Beats PowerBeats Pro Wireless Sport Headphones - $70 off $249 | $179 | Amazon | ⚡ I like the PowerBeats Pro with the over-the-ear design, for more security in workouts. I use these as well as my Beats Studio Buds (and have used the PowerBeats Pro ones longer). $70 off is a solid deal. | |
| Apple Watch SE - $40 off $279 | $239 | Amazon | This isn't quite the lowest price, but is close for the Apple Watch SE. And perhaps more interestingly, my testing over the last year (I continue to use it, including much of the late summer/early fall timeframe), shows that Apple has clearly worked on improving accuracy of it, with it being far more accurate in GPS than a year ago (HR continues to be very good as it was a year ago). | |
| Garmin Venu 2S - $50 off | $349 | Amazon | REI | This is the first time the Venu 2 has been on sale since its announcement this past spring. It's not a huge deal, but hey, $50 is $50. |
| Garmin Forerunner 745 - $100 off $499/499EUR | $399 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ This is a solid deal on a very capable watch. More notably, it's also the watch I primarily use as my daily sports tracking watch. While it doesn't have the onboard maps of the FR945, since I'm not traveling as much, it doesn't bother me. Of course, keep in mind that with all the Garmin units on sale, the price differences to map-inclusive units aren't very much. |
| Garmin Venu SQ - $70 off $199/$249 with Music | $129 | Amazon | REI | This is by far the lowest price we've seen, at $129USD, or $179 for the music version. |
| Garmin Fenix 6 Pro Series - $250+ off $549-$1,149 | $399 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ This is the biggest deal we've seen on the Fenix 6 Series to date, making it an incredible deal for a watch this full-featured. the base units start at $349, and the Pro units start at $399 (seriously). Pro models have maps/music/wifi, while the base doesn't. | |
| Apple Watch Series 7 - $50 off $399/$499 (cellular) | $349 | Amazon | ⚡This is the most substantial discount we've seen to date on the Series 7, since its announcement and release earlier this fall. | |
| Wahoo KICKR V5/2020 - $100 off! $1,199 | $1,099 | Competitive Cyclist | While not quite the 20% off deals we saw last week, this is as good as it's gonna get for a long while. So grab it if ya want a KICKR V5/2020! Note: Black Friday and Cyber Monday only (but not Saturday/Sunday). | |
| Wahoo KICKR Core Smart Trainer- $100 Off $899 | $799 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | While not quite the 20% off deals we saw last week, this is as good as it's gonna get for a long while. So grab it if ya want a KICKR CORE! Note: Black Friday and Cyber Monday only (but not Saturday/Sunday). |
| Garmin Fenix 6 Pro Solar Series - $250 off! $849 | $549 | Amazon | Backcountry | ⚡⚡ All of the Garmin Fenix 6 Pro Solar series watches get an additional $50 off - so a total of $250 off, making it easily the best prices we've ever seen on a Fenix solar-series watch. This deal continues! |
| Garmin Quatix 6 Multisport Marine Smartwatch - $200 off | $499 | Amazon | This is the variant of the Fenix 6 that's aimed towards boaters, and includes connectivity to various Garmin marine gear. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 245 Music - $50 off | $249 | Amazon | Backcountry | Both the Forerunner 245 & 245 Music are on sale for $50 off. While not a huge sale, it's actually the lowest we've seen either product priced to date. So, that's worth considering. The FR245 Music supports Spotify, Amazon Music, and other streaming platforms. |
| Withings Sleep Tracking Pad - 32% off | $67 | Amazon | Fun tidbit: I actually use this. Well, more specifically, I use the far older bedside clock version, but, the sensor is essentially the same. Simply that the new sensor doesn't require a bedside clock anymore. But, if you don't like wearing a wearable to bed, then this will still track all your nighttime stats. | |
| Polar Vantage M2 - 16% off! $299 | $251 | Amazon | This is the first time we've seen a deal on the new Polar Vantage M2! | |
| Wahoo KICKR SNAP - $50 Off $499 | $449 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | Note: Black Friday and Cyber Monday only (but not Saturday/Sunday). |
 | Lumen Metabolism Tracker - Free Device (with subscription) | $230 | N/A | Lumen Site | This deal is a bit complicated at first glance, but basically the device is normally $199, and now you get the device for free but still need the subscription. So if you purchase the 12-month subscription it's $259USD, but then you can get $30 off using code THE5KRUNNER30, getting you down to $229. Works in Euros/GBP too. Note: I have not tested this device, and am kinda wishy-washy on it. But if you're looking for a deal, there ya go. |
 | COROS Trade-In Program: $200 Credit for trading in APEX 46mm, APEX Pro or VERTIX $699 | $200 off | N/A | COROS Site | If you trade in COROS APEX 46mm, APEX Pro or VERTIX (1), you'll get a $200 credit towards the purchase of any COROS watch on the store. So you could apply that to the COROS Vertix 2, or equally, you could apply that to the COROS Pace 2 and pay nothing (since it's $199). This is in addition to the normal COROS trade-in program for $100 for any watch from any vendor. |
| Garmin Vivoactive 4 - $100 off $299 | $199 | Amazon | REI | |
 | Wahoo KICKR Desk - $25 Off $249 | $224 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ This is one of those units that is undoubtedly expensive - yet everyone who has one loves it. Including myself. Note: Black Friday and Cyber Monday only (but not Saturday/Sunday). |
 | COROS Vertix - $100 off $599 | $499 | N/A | COROS Site | This is the original COROS Vertix, but keep in mind it just got full mapping support a couple weeks ago, and then over the next week gets another slate of solid features. That's pretty impressive. Also of note is that COROS has re-worked the packaging here to be more 'normal' (no crazy case anymore). |
| FORM Swim Goggles (with heads-up display) - $20 off | $179 | Amazon | ⚡ We don't often see deals on the FORM swim goggle (last Black Friday was the last time). So if you're looking to pick this up, this is the time to do so! Additionally, as part of this promo, you can then get 85% off their annual subscription plan (which isn't required to use the goggles) for $25, versus the normal $180. Note: You'll need to tap that little 'Coupon' checkbox on the Amazon page for the lower price. | |
| Wahoo CLIMB Accessory - $65 off! $599 | $539 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | Note: Black Friday and Cyber Monday only (but not Saturday/Sunday). |
| Apple Watch SE - $60 off $279 | $219 | Amazon | This is the lowest price to date for the Apple Watch SE. And perhaps more interestingly, my testing over the last year (I continue to use it, including much of the late summer/early fall timeframe), shows that Apple has clearly worked on improving accuracy of it, with it being far more accurate in GPS than a year ago (HR continues to be very good as it was a year ago). | |
| CORE Body Temp Sensor - 20% off | $216 | CORE Site | The CORE Body temp sensor measures your body core, and is used by numerous Pro Cycling teams. I haven't gotten a full review up, but have been using it on/off over the last year. It's pretty fascinating stuff. I believe this is the first sale they've had. On the sale side, they also have a bundle with a chest HRM as well that's on sale. | |
| Beats PowerBeats Studio Buds - $58 off $149 | $99 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ I've been using these since this summer, primarily on my indoor workouts, but also on some of my runs (for example, in testing out the COROX Vertix 2's music capabilities). I like them and they've become my go-to buds. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 245 - $50 off $299/$349 | $199 | Amazon | Backcountry | Both the Forerunner 245 & 245 Music are on sale for $50 off. While not a huge sale, it's actually the lowest we've seen either product priced to date. So, that's worth considering. |
 | Wahoo TICKR FIT Optical Strap (Dual ANT+/BLE) - 20% Off $79 | $63 | Amazon | ||
| Therabody Theragun Elite - $100 off | $299 | Amazon | ⚡ This is arguably my wife's favorite sports tech gadget. She uses it pretty much daily. Thus, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention this deal. Also, please don't tell her, she might just buy another one... | |
 | Garmin Vivofit Jr - 50% off $79 | $39 | Amazon | ⚡While sometimes we see this down to $29, it's still a good deal at $39. Both my two older girls wear them, with my oldest always having it on, and the middle child mostly having it on. They both love them. | |
| Garmin Enduro - $100 off $799-$899 | $699. | Amazon | This is the first time we've seen the Garmin Enduro on sale since its launch last winter. This is a watch purely focused on long battery life, at the expense of maps and music. The $899 version with the Titanium material is on sale for $799, while the regular $799 version is on sale for $699. | |
| Tacx Flux 2 Smart Trainer - Normally $899 $899 | $799 | Amazon | REI | Also a rare sale on the Flux 2, albeit just a $100 off, it's still not a bad deal. |
| Fitbit Luxe - 30% off | $99 | Amazon | REI | |
| Fitbit Inspire 2 - 40% off $99 | $59 | Amazon | REI | |
| Beats PowerBeats Pro Wireless Sport Headphones - $100 off $249 | $149 | Amazon | ⚡ I like the PowerBeats Pro with the over-the-ear design, for more security in workouts. I use these as well as my Beats Studio Buds (and have used the PowerBeats Pro ones longer). $100 off is a solid deal. | |
| Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 - $50 off | $229 | Amazon | This is the latest edition that came out this past summer/fall, now on Wear OS, and the first time we've seen a notable sale on it. | |
 | Wattbike Smart Bikes - Free HRM & trainer mat with purchase $2,599 | Varies | N/A | Wattbike Site | Get a free Wattbike heart rate monitor and floor mat (worth £75) with all Wattbike Atom purchases* |
| Withings Body+ WiFi Scale - 39% off | $60 | Amazon | I've long been a fan of the Withings WiFi scales, especially since they can connect/push data to so many platforms, including Zwift! Note that the Body+ simply includes more data. | |
 | 4iiii Viiiiva Heart Rate Strap - $25 off $79 | $54 | Amazon | 4iiii Site | |
| Garmin Vivoactive 4S - $100 off | $199 | Amazon | REI | |
 | Stages Dash M50 - $75 off! $249 | $174 | N/A | Stages Site | The Stages Dash M50 & L50 are both $75 off. The L50 is the largest of the two (hence the L in the name), while the M50 is the smaller unit (M for Medium). |
 | Stages Dash L50 - $75 off! $299 | $225 | N/A | Stages Site | The Stages Dash M50 & L50 are both $75 off. The L50 is the largest of the two (hence the L in the name), while the M50 is the smaller unit (M for Medium). |
| Stages Power Meters - Most 30% off units | 30% off | N/A | Stages Site | Stages is offering 30% off their factory install power meters (meaning, the power meter is installed on your existing crankset/crank arm). Plus also 30% off the Cannondale SI units too! |
| Garmin Edge 830 Cycling GPS - $50 off $399 | $349 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ While this isn't a big sale, it's actually the lowest price the unit has been offered in the 2.5 years since release. |
 | Peloton Tread - $250 off accessory bundle | $2,515 | Peloton Site | Like with the base Peloton Bike deal, this isn't lowering the base price, but just included $250 worth of accessories with it (weights, resistance bands, mat, and heart rate monitor). I picked up this model about a month ago and have begun testing. Thus far, I like it. I'm not sure I enjoy it as much as the bike, merely because I enjoy running even on colder and/or wetter days, more than I like cycling on cold/wet days. | |
| Peloton Bike+ is $350 off | $2,145 | Amazon | Peloton Site | This is a solid deal for the Bike+, and the first time we've seen it on discount. Both my wife and I use both the Peloton Bike+ and the regular Bike (one at home, one at office) on a weekly basis. We like both. The Bike+ is more accurate than the regular bike, and also has a bigger screen and automatic resistance control. That said, the core Peloton experience isn't any different between the two - it's the same platform there. |
| Peloton Bike - $200 off Accessory Bundle | $1,495 | Amazon | Peloton Site | Essentially Peloton isn't lowering the price of the bike itself, but is throwing in the accessories for free (saving you $200). Thus making them the most expensive pair of cycling shoes and 5lbs weights known to man. But hey, if you were gonna buy them - then now you get them for free. Note that Peloton DOES NOT support any open standards for apps like Zwift, TrainerRoad, etc... Do NOT buy it for that purpose. It's a great bike that I and my wife use numerous times a week, but just use it for the Peloton platform. |
| Wahoo RIVAL GPS Watch - $80 ff $199 | $299 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | This is the lowest price we've seen to date on the Wahoo RIVAL GPS Watch, edging out the slight sale we saw last summer for a few days. |
| Wahoo KICKR Core Smart Trainer- $90 Off $899 | $809 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | While not quite the 20% off deals we saw last week, this is as good as it's gonna get for a long while. So grab it if ya want a KICKR CORE! Note: Black Friday and Cyber Monday only (but not Saturday/Sunday). |
| Garmin Edge 530 Cycling GPS - $50 off! $299 | $249 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ This matches last year's Black Friday sale, and is the lowest price to date on the Edge 530. This is one of the main units I use for my day-to-day riding and testing. |
| Apple Watch Series 7 - 40mm - $20 off $399/$499 (cellular) | $379 | Amazon | This is the first time we've seen the Apple Watch Series 7 on sale. It's not a huge sale, but then again, I wouldn't expect major discounts here this season. | |
| Stages Bike SB20 - $350 off! $2899 | $2,799 | N/A | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ A very solid deal, as virtually none of the smart bikes are actually on sale right now. |
| Favero Assioma Duo Power Meter Pedals - $90 off! | $549 | Favero Site | ⚡ This is a strong deal from Favero, who is offering their Favero Assioma Duo pedals for 80-110EUR off. You'll pay the current exchange rate. The exact deal will vary based on which country you're shipping to. | |
| Wahoo KICKR V5/2020 - $120 off! $1,199 | $1,079 | Competitive Cyclist | While not quite the 20% off deals we saw last week, this is as good as it's gonna get for a long while. So grab it if ya want a KICKR! Note: Black Friday and Cyber Monday only (but not Saturday/Sunday). | |
| Wahoo Headwind Fan - $25 off! $249 | $225 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | Note: Black Friday and Cyber Monday only (but not Saturday/Sunday). |
| Garmin Fenix 6 Series - $200 all models $549-$1,149 | From $349 | Amazon | REI | ⚡⚡ This is the biggest deal we've seen on the Fenix 6 Series to date, making it an incredible deal for a watch this full-featured. Last year for Black Friday it was 'only' $150 off. This will also be the most you'll see the Fenix 6 discounted, as Garminnever undercuts their own sale later in the holiday (since that'll lead to returns/swaps). The base units start at $349, and the Pro units start at $499. Pro models have maps/music/wifi, while the base don't. |
 | GoPro Hero 10 Black Extra Battery Accessory Bundle - $100 off | $449 | Amazon | ⚡This is an AWESOME deal. Not only is it the $50 off of the other Hero 10 deal, but now you get an extra battery, the dual battery charge (which I use sitting on my desk right now), plus a lanyard you may or may not use (the case seen comes in every GoPro package). So basically, you get an extra battery and the dual charger for the same discount as the other deal. A no-brainer. | |
 | Lezyne Mega-XL Cycling GPS - 30% off (Yellow Edition only) $199USD | $129 | Amazon | If you're looking for a yellow submarine edition of the Mega-XL, this this bright bike computer is all yours for 30% off! | |
| Garmin Varia RVR315 Radar - $50 off | $99 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ This is the lowest price to date on this radar. This variant doesn't have a taillight, so it's a bit smaller as a result. Same radar tech though, and compatible with Garmin/Stages/Hammerhead/Wahoo bike computers. |
| Withings Body WiFi Scale - 25% off $59 | $45 | Amazon | I've always had a soft spot in my heart for the Withings WiFi Scale, they were the first in this category a gazillion years ago, and frankly, they're still basically the best in terms of partnerships and simplicity. It just works. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 945 - $100 Off $599/599EUR | $499 | Amazon | Backcountry | Officially this is $100 off, but realistically the FR945 (non-LTE) floats at about $520 most of the year, so it's really only about $20 off the norm. |
| Garmin Venu 2 - $50 off $399 | $349 | Amazon | REI | This is the first time the Venu 2 has been on sale since its announcement this past spring. It's not a huge deal, but hey, $50 is $50. |
| KOM Cycling Trainer Desk - 20% off! | $69 | Amazon | I bought and reviewed this desk earlier this year, and really like it. In fact, it's still the one I've been using lately (I also like the other ones too, but for no particular reason I never swapped back). It's especially great if you've got a small space. | |
 | 4iiii Fliiiight Smart Trainer- 20% off $599 | $439 | N/A | 4iiii Site | ⚡ This is the totally silent trainer (it uses magnets). This is notable not only for the sale, but because it's basically the first time it's been back in stock in nearly a year. |
| Garmin Instinct Solar - $150 off $399/$449 | $249 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ A strong price for the unit, besting last year's Black Friday sale. There's also the non-solar version for $169, but keep in mind that's got significantly different features. In many ways, the Garmin Instinct Solar is kinda like a Garmin Instinct 2.0. |
 | Elgato Streamdeck - $50 off! | $99 | Amazon | I use the Elgato Streamdeck anytime I do any livestreams, as a way to control everything that's going on. It's super easy, and by far the most popular tool in the streaming world. | |
| Tacx NEO 2T Smart Trainer - $200 off! (In Stock) $1,399 | $1,199 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ This is a very rare sale for this trainer, if you're in the market, I wouldn't wait around for these units to disappear. |
| Oura Ring Gen 3 - $50 off | $249 | Amazon | Oura Site | This is the just released Oura Ring Gen 3. If you buy on Black Friday you get $50 off the price, as well as the usual 6-month subscription included. |
 | Withings Steel HR Hybrid Smartwatch - $60 off | $119 | Amazon | ||
| Garmin Forerunner 945 LTE - $100 off $649 | $549 | Amazon | Backcountry | This is the first time we've seen the new FR945 LTE on sale. The unit came out back this summer, focused primarily on safety and tracking features via LTE connecton. |
 | DJI Mini SE Drone Bundle | $355 | Adorama | This is a bundle with an extra battery, bag, and MicroSD, saving about $35 or so. It's not a huge deal, but it's pretty much the only one I've seen on the Mini SE specifically. | |
 | Tacx Boost Trainer - $50 off | $249 | Amazon | REI | This is a very budget trainer, without any smarts (unless you buy the bundle, and even then, it's still not very smart). It's not my favorite trainer, but if you were trying to find it onsale, this is your chance. |
| NormaTec Pulse 2.0 Leg Recovery System - $150 off! | $749 | Amazon | While this isn't something I've personally used, I know a ton of you do very much love it. Go forth! | |
 | inReach Mini Satellite Communicator - $50 off | $299 | Amazon | REI | This is the second year in a row the inReach Mini has gone on sale for Black Friday, though last year it was $100 off. Solid deal for a great little unit if you travel beyond cellular coverage. Plus, integration with Garmin watches has improved lately too. |
| Apple TV 4K (2021 Edition) for Zwift - $10 off | $159 | Amazon | I use this for almost all my Zwifting, and while $20 isn't huge...hey, a sale is sale. | |
 | Garmin Edge 130 Plus - $50 off! $199 | $149 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | The 'Plus' variant is notable compared to the regular unit for having ClimbPro on it, plus a handful of other tweaks. $149 is a good deal for it. |
| Favero Assioma Duo Power Meter Pedals - $130 off! $459/$719 (single/dual) | $489 | Amazon | Favero Site | ⚡ This is a strong deal from Favero, who is offering their Favero Assioma Duo pedals for 80-110EUR off. You'll pay the current exchange rate. The exact deal will vary based on which country you're shipping to. |
 | Garmin Swim 2 - 93EUR off! $249 | 156EUR | Amazon | This is another fantastic deal on Amazon Germany. | |
 | Stryd V2 Running Pod - $23 off | $197 | Stryd Site | Stryd pretty much only puts their items on once a year at Black Friday, so if you're in the market for one, now's the time.. Use coupon code blackfriday2021 to save 10% | |

 | Garmin Speed Sensor V2 - 20% off | $32 | Amazon | REI | This is Garmin's latest ANT+/Bluetooth Smart speed sensor, but notably, it's also one that can record your rides without being connected to a bike computer, making it perfect for tracking mileage on a commuter bike. Last year during Black Friday I bought a pile of these and outfited all our commuter/cargo bikes for 2021 to see what the mileage/breakdown by trip/etc looks like at the end of the year. Yes, I'm a geek. |
 | Garmin Magnetless Sensors Cadence/Speed Bundle - 20% off | $56 | N/A | REI | This bundle includes both the dual ANT+/BLE Speed & Cadence sensors (V2), and is notable because the speed sensor not only transmits like any other, but also records your rides even when you don't have a bike computer/watch paired to it - making it perfect for commuter bikes.

| COROS Vertix - $150 off $599 | $449 | Amazon | Costco (US) | The Vertix 1 is no longer the most recent Vertix (Vertix 2 came out back in August), but it just got a big firmware update this week to give it mapping, plus plenty of other recent features. It's probably a tough pitch at $449 vs a Fenix 6 Pro at $499, but if mind-boggling battery life is your core requirement, it's hard to beat at this price point. |

| Tacx NEO 2 SE (Special Edition) - 16% off (US) ~€1,100 | $1,170 | N/A | Chain Reaction | The Tacx NEO 2 SE is basically just a NEO 2 but with added native thru-axle compatibility. That's it. Note this is shipped by Chain Reaction, but comes with either a UK or EU power adapter. You can simply use a $1-$2 power adapter without any problems in the US. All Tacx trainers are dual-voltage (and in fact, I regularly use $1 adapters with trainers when companies send me out of country units to test). |
| Polar Grit X - 20% off $429 | $350 | Amazon | Given my post this past week, seems like something might be coming up here shortly. Still, a good watch for the reduced price. | |
| Beats PowerBeats Studio Buds - 17% off $149 | $125 | Amazon | I've been using these since earlier this summer, primarily on my indoor workouts, but also on some of my runs (for example, in testing out the COROX Vertix 2's music capabilities). I like them. | |
| Apple Airpods Pro - $70 off! $249 | $179 | Amazon | It's been a while since we've seen them this low (and the last time they were any lower was last Black Friday at $80 off - so not much difference). | |
| Apple Airpods (2nd Gen) - $30-$50 off $159 | $109 | Amazon | I use AirPods primarily when I'm traveling just to listen in airports, planes, etc... I don't tend to use these for workouts due to them falling out. | |
| GoPro Hero 9 Black - $50 off | $399 | Amazon | REI | This is the camera I use for all my daily shooting during sports. Actually, I've bought a few of them. Note that if you're a GoPro Plus Subscriber, then it's a bit cheaper at $349 from GoPro directly, but otherwise, it's $449. |
| Tacx NEO 2T Smart Trainer - $100 off! (In Stock) $1,399 | $1,299 | Amazon | CompetitiveCyclist.com | ⚡ Hey, it's on-sale. Which, basically hasn't happened in a long long time. Nor has it been in stock half the time. So getting it both on sale, and in-stock is impressive. |
 | Garmin Forerunner 935 $499 | $269 | Amazon | ⚡ Sure, it's not the latest edition, but the FR935 is the staple of many triathletes and runners, and it still an incredibly solid watch. We saw this a bit lower last summer on Amazon Prime Day ($239) - but beyond that, this is pretty darn low. Also, I say $100-$200 off, because the 'base' price fluctuates a bit these days. Sometimes retail is $399 sometimes $499. | |
| Garmin Vivofit Jr - $40 off $79 | $29 | Amazon | ⚡I believe this is the lowest price we've ever seen this for. Either way, $29 is kinda crazy. Both my two older girls wear them, with my oldest always having it on, and the middle child mostly having it on. They both love them. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 45/45S - $50 off $199 | $149 | Amazon | If you're looking for a runners focused watch, this is a pretty good deal, about 25% off. The FR45 basically packs all the features of the previous generation FR235...just now in the FR45 series. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 745 - $100 off $499/499EUR | $399 | Amazon | ⚡ This is the best deal we've seen to date on this watch, arguably one of my favorite watches (if not my favorite watch). | |

I've gotta believe this is semi-targetted at undercutting COROS's latest Veritx 2 even further, but this brings down the base Fenix 6 model to $449, and the Fenix 6 Pro from $549 (including maps/music/wifi). This also includes the newer Fenix 6/6S Solar units from last summer (so basically, all solar variants too) |
| Garmin Edge 130 Plus - 25% off! $199 | $149 | Amazon | The 'Plus' variant is notable compared to the regular unit for having ClimbPro on it, plus a handful of other tweaks. $149 is a good deal for it. | |
| Garmin Venu GPS Smartwatch - $50 off $299 | $269 | Amazon | Officially they say $80 off, but realistically it's about $50 off, maybe a touch less. Remember the Venu 2 came out this past spring. | |
| Garmin Venu SQ - $50 off $199/$249 with Music | $149 | Amazon | ||
 | Garmin Lily Sport - $50 off $249 | $149 | Amazon | ||
| Garmin Vivoactive 4 - Up to $100 off $299 | $249 | Amazon | Not the best price we've seen (that was back in June at $189), but still good. | |

| Wahoo KICKR SNAP - 10% off! $499 | $449 | Amazon | CompetitiveCyclist.com | |

| Wahoo KICKR V5/2020 - $120 off! $1,199 | $1,079 | N/A | CompetitiveCyclist.com | A very strong deal for the KICKR V5/2020 - and really one of the first sales we've seen since launch a year ago (as most US retailers didn't discount Wahoo trainers over the last year). |
| Wahoo KICKR AXIS Feet - $8 off | $72 | N/A | CompetitiveCyclist.com | |
| Wahoo KICKR Desk - $25 Off $249 | $224 | N/A | CompetitiveCyclist.com | |

| Wahoo KICKR Bike - $350 off! $3,499 | $3,149 | N/A | CompetitiveCyclist.com | This is the first time we've ever seen the Wahoo KICKR Bike permitted to be on sale, that's huge! Seriously, this is an incredible deal. |
| Wahoo Speedplay Comp Pedals - 20% off | $120 | N/A | CompetitiveCyclist.com | |
| Garmin Forerunner 245 - $50 off $299/$349 | $249 | Amazon | Both the Forerunner 245 is on sale for $50 off. While not a huge sale, it's actually the lowest we've seen either product priced to date. | |
| Apple AirPods Pro - $60 off! $249 | $189 | Amazon | ||
 | Fitbit Charge 4 - $50 off! $149 | $99 | Amazon | Currently the best deal we've seen to date, matching only the Black Friday deal last fall. | |
 | Apple AirPods with Wireless Charging Case - $50 Off! | $149 | Amazon | ⚡ I use AirPods primarily when I'm travelling just to listen in airports, planes, etc... I don't tend to use these for workouts due to them falling out. Personally, I just use the basic model. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 945 - $83 off $599/599EUR | $515 | Amazon | Backcountry | Not a bad deal, the price seems to fluctuate between $80-$85 off (official Garmin sale price currently). |
| Garmin Vivofit Jr. 3 - 38% off | $49 | Amazon | This deal easily beats Black Friday last year, making it the lowest we've seen on the Vivofit Jr 3 series. | |
| Garmin Edge 1030 Plus - $110 off $599 | $490 | Amazon | ⚡ I don't think this particular discount will last long. It seems a bit quirky the way it's worded on Amazon's page. Note that the Edge 1030 Plus was on sale for $100 off till last week, so in some ways this is just a continuation of that for a tiny bit longer/more. | |
 | Polar Vantage M - $50 off $279 | $223 | Amazon | This isn't the latest model anymore, but it's still a really solid multisport watch. | |
| Synology 4 bay NAS DiskStation DS920+ (Diskless) - $110 off | $439 | Amazon | ⚡ I use Synology NAS units for all my file storage at the DCR Cave. This unit is a slightly smaller variant of what I use (DS1817), but mainly just with less storage space. The DS920+ linked here is a solid deal at $110 off, though, keep in mind if just using for simple storage, the DS418 is cheaper (but doesn't support expansion units). Also, remember you'll need to add disks. I currently find 8TB units are the sweet spot on price vs capacity. | |
| DJI Mavic Mini Fly More Combo Kit - 24% off | $399 | Amazon | ||
 | Apple Watch Series 6 - (40mm) - $120 Off $399/$499 (cellular) | $279 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ The strongest deal yet on the Apple Watch Series 6! Note, this price is fluctuating constantly throughout the day, so keep checking back if it's not showing the lowest price. | |
| Polar Ignite GPS - $40 off $229 | $159 | Amazon | This is a good deal for a good unit. As with the Polar Vantage M deal, it's no longer the most recent version of this watch, but it's still got a ton of features packed into it. | |
 | Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 - 35% off | $279 | Amazon | This is almost the lowest price I've seen on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 | |
| Suunto 7 Wear OS Watch - $128 off $399 | $270 | Amazon | This is the lowest price we've ever seen the Suunto 7 Wear OS powered watch at. Plus, it continues to get new features too! | |
| Apple Airpods (2nd Gen) - $30-$50 off $159 | $99-119 | Amazon | I use AirPods primarily when I'm traveling just to listen in airports, planes, etc... I don't tend to use these for workouts due to them falling out. Note: Price fluctuating between $99-$119 throughout day. | |
| Garmin Fenix 6 Series - $100 all models $549-$1,149 | $100 off | Amazon | ⚡ This deal is back! A variant of the $100-$150 off Fenix range deal shows up each May/June ahead of Fathers day and past Amazon Prime Day, and this is no different. This also includes the newer Fenix 6/6S Solar units from this past summer. | |
| Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus Wireless Earbuds - 43% off | $84 | Amazon | ||
 | Nurvv Running Insoles - 40% off $299 | $179 | Amazon | This is a pretty new product, just launched this past fall that sits inside your shoe and even has GPS built into the pod sidewalls. However, just last week (mid-June) it got an update that now includes a new footstrike coach/target system. | |
| Garmin Venu GPS Smartwatch - $130 off! $299 | $219 | Amazon | ⚡ This is about the lowest we've seen yet for the Garmin Venu GPS (by far), which includes an AMOLED display as well as music (even Spotify offline). Solid deal. Note, the Venu 2 did come out last month. | |
| Garmin Instinct Solar - $150 off $399/$449 | $249 | Amazon | ⚡ By far the best deal we've seen on the Instinct Solar edition, which came out last summer. | |
| Garmin Varia RVR315 Radar - 23% off | $104 | Amazon | N/A | This is Garmin's latest gen Varia radar, without the light portion. This is also by far the best deal we've seen on it. |
| Garmin Forerunner 245 Music - $60 off | $289 | Amazon | Both the Forerunner 245 Music is sale for $60 off. While not a huge sale, it's actually the lowest we've seen either product priced to date. The FR245 Music supports Spotify, Amazon Music, and other streaming platforms. | |
| Garmin Venu SQ Music - $60 off $199/$249 with Music | $189 | Amazon | This is a good deal on the music edition, making it the lowest price we've seen to date. | |
 | Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 - 36% off | $159 | Amazon | ||
 | Lacie 2TB & 4TB Ruggedized USB Drives - 41% off | $91 | Amazon | These are the drives I primarily use for large piles of storage with my laptop and daily use before offloading to a file server. I also sometimes edit videos off these too (though, for multiple 4K streams in video it can be a tiny bit slower than SSD drives). But still, definitely recommend these. | |
| Jackery Portable Power Station - $100 off | $199 | Amazon | This is something I use frequently when shooting out and about and I need to re-charge a crapton of drone batteries, action cameras, or just cameras and such. I also use it on trips to Eurobike and elsewhere to keep equipment charged. Technically you can even hook a solar panel up to it. Heck, I've even powered a KICKR trainer ride from it! | |
 | Apple iPad - Latest Model 8th Gen (32GB) - 10% off | $299 | Amazon | I use my iPad primarily for TrainerRoad as well as Zwift when not with a larger display. I also occasionally use it for other apps, namely The SufferFest - but I pretty much test every smart trainer app on it. (US AMAZON DEAL ONLY). | |
| Fitbit Inspire 2 - 40% off $99 | $59 | Amazon | ||
 | Garmin Instinct Esports Edition - 40% off | $179 | Amazon | This is actually the first time we've seen a deal on this quirky little variant of Garmin Instinct, meant to pair up with its own special app for transmitting data to streamers. | |
 | Garmin Fenix 6 Sapphire (Pro) - $300 off | $499 | Amazon | ⚡⚡⚡ This is probably the best deal of the day for this Fenix 6 Pro Sapphire edition, which includes the maps/music/Wifi, and is discounted far more than the rest of the lineup. Update: Deal appears to be dead, however, I'll leave this here for folks to keep checking (many, if not most of the time, it comes back alive). | |
| Garmin Fenix 6S | Amazon | ⚡⚡ This is a strong deal for the Fenix 6S Pro, and the best we've ever seen. This includes the maps/music/WiFi. | ||
| Fitbit Sense - 40% off $329 | $199 | Amazon | This is the lowest price to date for the Fitbit Sense (by far), and makes it a deal you should definitely consider versus the Fitbit Versa 3 for the same price (no, really, there's no reason to get the Versa 3 at the same price). | |
 | Fitbit ACE 2 Activity Tracker for Kids - 57% Off | $29 | Amazon | Umm, this is an incredible. So incredible that I've almost gotta wonder if this product line is going to be kept around. Fitbit never discounts this much. But hey, they also never drop support on things - so it frankly doesn't matter much if there's not an ACE 3 or something. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 745 - $25 off $499/499EUR | $475 | Amazon | The FR745 multisport GPS watch has music support (including Spotify), and is otherwise a full triathlon watch. This is only the second time we've seen it on sale since release. So $25 off is better than nothing off. | |
 | Garmin Instinct Tactical- $120 Off | $179 | Amazon | This is the lowest this watch has been ($120 off, and down to $197). Note that this is the non-Solar version, so do keep that in mind. | |
| SanDisk 1-2TB Extreme PRO Portable External SSD - 36-45% off | $169 | Amazon | This is one of the two the high speed drives I use to store the footage I'm actively video editing, so that I can edit it on both my iMac at the office, and then my MacBook when traveling or at home. | |
 | Amazon Echo Dot - 53% off | $19 | Amazon | I use these around the studio and home - and for $18, it's kinda incredible what kind of technology they can pack into that price. | |
 | All Amazon Kindles: 33-45% off | Varies | Amazon | Both myself and The Girl have Kindles for reading. In her case, she uses hers daily. In my case, it ends to be more vacation/weekends. We both recently upgraded are crazy-old ones to the newer Paperwhite editions. We don't need much fancy. | |
| Nest Cam Outdoors - $50 off | $149 | Amazon | We use one of these and so far after I think just about three years, it's working great for us. Love it, and works better than trying to stick a regular Nest Cam out the window (since it'll reflect both during daytime and at night with the IR sensor). | |
 | Jaybird Vista Wireless Headphones - 12% off! $179 | $149 | Amazon | ||
| Withings Body+ WiFi Scale - 31% off | $69 | Amazon | I've long been a fan of the Withings WiFi scales, especially since they can connect/push data to so many platforms, including Zwift! Note that the Body+ simply includes more data. | |
| Wahoo TICKR FIT Optical Strap (Dual ANT+/BLE) - 25% Off $79 | $59 | Amazon | This is a good all-around optical HR sensor band (for the arm). It doesn't have memory on it, so it's purely transmission only, but that makes it like most HR straps anyway. It's been nearly 2 years since we've seen this on sale. Note: You have to add to cart to get the 25% off. | |
| Garmin Vivoactive 4/4S - $100-150 off $299 | $189 | Amazon | ⚡ This is Garmin's current offering to compete with the Apple Watch series (alongside the Garmin Venu/Venu 2), and is currently the lowest price we've seen to date, even better than Black Friday last year. Historically Garmin refreshes this lineup the last week of August this year, but who knows what the future holds. | |
| Withings Sleep Tracking Pad - 30% off | $69 | Amazon | Fun tidbit: I actually use this. Well, more specifically, I use the far older bedside clock version, but, the sensor is essentially the same. Simply that the new sensor doesn't require a bedside clock anymore. But, if you don't like wearing a wearable to bed, then this will still track all your nighttime stats. | |
| Garmin Varia Radar (RTL515) - $30 off | $169 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | This seems to go on sale about once per year, and this be that time. If you're looking to pick one up, I wouldn't expect any further deals till probably Black Friday timeframe. |
 | Schwinn IC Bike Series - All 20% off | $799 | Amazon | This is one of the most popular alternatives to buying a Peloton Bike, but using the Peloton App with it. All Schwinn IC Bikes are 20% off for Amazon Prime Day, *which shows up when you add it to your cart*. I haven't personally reviewed this (though, have ridden it briefly). But it gets very consistently high reviews across the board. | |
 | Tile Trackers - All 30% off | $24+ | Amazon | I use a blend of Tile Trackers and AirTags to track all sorts of things, notably all my bikes, wallet, and keys. All Tile Trackers are 30% off, including the combo packs too! | |
| Nespresso Vertuo Next Coffee & Espresso Kit - 30% off | $118 | Amazon | ⚡ Let's be honest: This place runs on Nespresso (or, well, the knock-off pods we buy). But, the machine is Nespresso. Without it, reviews most definitely would not get done (and certainly not on time). This is a pretty sweet deal if you ask me! | |
| Polar H10 Chest Strap (Dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart) - 30% off $89 | $62 | Amazon | This is a great dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart (with two Bluetooth Smart connections) chest strap that you'll often find me using as a reference strap in heart rate sensor testing. We only tend to see deals on it around Black Friday, always topping out around 20%, and I think 30% off is the lowest I've ever seen it! | |
 | Garmin Fenix 5X (with maps) - 51% off $599 | $296 | Amazon | ⚡ Down to $299 is a very solid deal for the Fenix 5X (non-Plus), so don't expect anything in the way of new feature updates (it's now 3 generations back). But still, at that price it's still a very solid and capable watch. Note: The Fenix 5X in this series actually does include mapping, whereas the other Fenix 5 (non-Plus) units don't have it. | |
| Insta360 One R Action Cam - 5% off | $469 | Amazon | The entire lineup of Insta360 One R action cams are 15% off, including the 1" and 360 variants. Overall it's a good cam with good picture clarity (I've mainly used the 1" 5.3K variant), but I find the software really lets it down. | |
 | GoPro Hero 8 Black w/32GB card, GoPro Shorty Stick, Extra Battery, Headstrap- $70 Off | $289 | Amazon | The Hero 8 is still a great camera, so if you don't need the extra bits of the newer Hero 9, this saves you a $110 in comparison. Plus, this includes an extra battery, shorty strick/tripod, head mount, and 32GB MicroSD Card | |
| Beats PowerBeats Pro Wireless Sport Headphones - $55 off $249 | $144 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ These are my daily driver headphones that I use for all my trainer rides, and anything else sport related. While they're not perfect (namely the charging case), it's what I keep going back to every day because of the seamless Apple ecosystem integration (iPad/Apple TV/iOS/Mac). NOTE: You have to add to cart to get the *EXTRA* $25 off beyond the sale pricing (bringing it to $144). | |
| Suunto 9 Baro Series - $100 off $599 (non-baro is $499) | $499 | Amazon | This isn't quite as good a deal as a few weeks ago when it was 42% off (basically $200 off), but it's still a deal nonetheless. | |
 | Amazon Halo Wearable Band - 30% off | $69 | Amazon | ||
 | KOM Cycling RPV2 Full Motion Rocker Plate - $300 off! | $499 | Amazon | ⚡⚡⚡ Woah, this is a HUGE deal. This just came out about two months ago, building upon the success of the base model. This model moves in both forward/back sliding, as well as side to side tilting. That's an incredible price. UPDATE: DEAL BACK ON! | |
| Nest Cam Indoors - 23% off | $99 | Amazon | We have more Nest cam's than I can count. No really, we have half a dozen at the DCR Cave alone, plus more at home. We love them. Nest Cam's really only go on sale about 1-2x per year. | |
| Google Nest Mesh WiFi Router - 30% two-pack | $205 | Amazon | These are the WiFi mesh access points I use both at home and the DCR Cave. Love them - I don't need to dork with them, they just work. | |
| Wahoo SPEED & RPM Sensors Bundle - 25% off | $52 | Amazon | This is a bundle of both the speed and cadence sensors, which are dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart. Both are magnetless, so they just take about 3.8 seconds to install. Note: You need to add to the cart to see the 25% off. | |
| Apple TV 4K (2021 Edition) for Zwift - $29 off | $169 | Amazon | I use this for almost all my Zwifting. This is the first major deal we've seen on something barely a month old. Also, the 32GB model is on sale too, from the same link. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 45/45S - $20 off $199 | $139 | Amazon | This is a good deal, though, keep in mind the Forerunner 55 just came out. So the 'normal' list price of $199 for the FR45 isn't really true anymore (that's the new FR55 list price). Thus this is roughly $20 off. In any case, it's a great running watch. | |
| Garmin Edge 130 Plus - 30% off! $199 | $139 | Amazon | ⚡ This is the lowest we've seen the Edge 130 Plus on sale. The 'Plus' variant is notable compared to the regular unit for having ClimbPro on it, plus a handful of other tweaks. $139 is a great deal for it. | |
| inReach Mini Satellite Communicator - $50 off | $299 | Amazon | Backcountry | This is the third year in a row the inReach Mini has gone on sale ahead of Fathers Day. The only other time it was on sale was during Black Friday. Solid deal for a great little unit if you travel beyond cellular coverage. Plus, integration with Garmin watches has improved lately too. |
| Garmin Edge 1030 Plus - $100 off $599 | $499 | Amazon | Fun fact: This is the first time we've seen the Edge 1030 Plus on sale (seriously), plus, it is only a year old and still receiving new feature firmware updates... Take it and run! | |
| Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 - 23% off | $329 | Amazon | Not as good a deal as it gets (down to $238 earlier this May), but hey, a deal is a deal. | |
| Garmin Instinct - $130 off $299 | ~$169 | Amazon | Backcountry | Sure, the new Solar variants came out last summer with a few new features, but at their core the Instincts are mostly the same. $199 is still a good price for this watch (lowest was $149 last October). |
| Garmin Instinct Tactical- $100 Off | $197 | Amazon | This is the lowest this watch has been ($100 off, and down to $197). Note that this is the non-Solar version, so do keep that in mind. | |
| Garmin Instinct Solar - $75 off $399/$449 | $325 | Amazon | Backcountry | ⚡ This is a solid deal on the Instinct solar family, though not the first or best time to date. Last November & December the units were $100 off. Still, it's as good as you're likely to get till next Black Friday. |
| Garmin Forerunner 45/45S - $50 off $199 | $149 | Amazon | Backcountry | If you're looking for a runners focused watch, this is a pretty good deal, about 25% off. The FR45 basically packs all the features of the previous generation FR235...just now in the FR45 series. |

| Saris H3 (Hammer 3) Smart Trainer - $200 off! $1,099 | $799 | Amazon | Backcountry | ⚡⚡ One of the top three trainers, but by far the top trainer on the market for ERG mode (so if you're a TrainerRoad user - this be the one!). Last sale of the year likely. Click through and you can add the 20% coupon to reduce price to $799. |
| Garmin Venu SQ - $50 off $199/$249 with Music | $149 | Amazon | REI | This is by far the lowest price we've seen, at $149USD, or $199 for the music version. |
| Saris H3 Bundle - $220 off! (In Stock) | $879 | N/A | Backcountry | ⚡⚡ Bundle includes pre-installed cassette, sweat guard, and ANT+ USB stick. Backcountry 20% sale, I do not expect this deal to last very long at all. Click through and you can add the 20% coupon to reduce price to $879. Given the scarcity of cassettes these days, if you don't have one handy, I'd just get this bundle rather than buying one. It's a wash price-wise then (plus you don't need tools, and you get an ANT+ stick and sweat guard thingy). |
| Garmin Rally RK100 (LOOK KEO Single Sided) - 20% off | $520 | N/A | REI | ⚡⚡ This is a solid deal, and the first time we've seen it on sale.

| Suunto 9 Baro Series - 42% off $599 (non-baro is $499) | $349 | Amazon | Backcountry | ⚡ This is as good as we'll typically see for the Suunto 9 series and sales, sometimes Europe gets a touch bit higher to around 46% off, but 42% off is solid for sure.. Obviusly, the Suunto 9 Peak just came out a couple days ago, but at twice this price for the higher end variant. |
| Fitbit Sense - $80 off! $329 | $249 | Amazon | REI | This is the lowest price to date for the Fitbit Sense, likely joining the typical fitness/wearables sale period |

| Garmin Vivoactive 4/4S - $80 off $299 | $269 | Amazon | This is Garmin's current offering to compete with the Apple Watch series (alongside the Garmin Venu), and this is a good price, though, it does go lower from time to time (not since Black Friday 2020). | |
 | Fitbit Versa 3 - $30 off $229 | $199 | Amazon | This isn't too bad a deal on the Vera 3, it was cheaper earlier in May - but hey, a deal is a deal. | |
| Fitbit Versa 3 - $50 off $229 | $179 | Amazon | REI | This is the first time the Versa 3 has been on sale. |
| Apple Watch Series 6 - 40mm RED - $70 off $399/$499 (cellular) | $329 | Amazon | This is a very solid deal on the Apple Watch Series 6. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 935 $499 | $269 | Amazon | ⚡ Sure, it's not the latest edition, but the FR935 is the staple of many triathletes and runners, and it still an incredibly solid watch. We saw this a bit lower last summer on Amazon Prime Day ($239) - but beyond that, this is pretty darn low. Also, I say $100-$200 off, because the 'base' price fluctuates a bit these days. Sometimes retail is $399 sometimes $499. | |
| Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 - 43% off | $238 | Amazon | This is the lowest price I've seen on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3, which typically is 'only' on sale for about 30% off. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 745 - 10% off $499/499EUR | $452 | Amazon | The FR745 multisport GPS watch has music support (including Spotify), and is otherwise a full triathlon watch. This is notably the first time we've seen it on sale since release. So $50 off is better than nothing off. | |
 | Garmin Edge 130 Plus Bundle - 20% off! | $199 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | This is the first time we've seen the Edge 130 Plus on sale. The 'Plus' variant is notable compared to the regular unit for having ClimbPro on it, plus a handful of other tweaks. This bundle includes a heart rate chest strap as well. |
| Garmin Edge 130 Plus - 25% off! $199 | $149 | Amazon | REI | This is the first time we've seen the Edge 130 Plus on sale. The 'Plus' variant is notable compared to the regular unit for having ClimbPro on it, plus a handful of other tweaks. $149 is a good deal for it. |
| Garmin RVR315 Varia Radar - Save 20% | $120 | Amazon | Competitive Cyclist | I believe this is the first sale of the Garmin Varia RVR315 cycling radar. This unit doesn't have a taillight, so it's a bit smaller as a result. Same radar tech though, and compatible with Garmin/Stages/Hammerhead/Wahoo bike computers. |
 | GoPro Max - $50 off $499 | $449 | Amazon | REI | |
| Garmin Forerunner 245 - $37 off $299/$349 | $313 | Amazon | Both the Forerunner 245 is on sale for $37 off. While not a huge sale, if you were in the market, it's definitely something. | |
| Garmin Venu GPS Smartwatch - $50 off $299 | $299 | Amazon | This has somewhat become the new baseline for Venu. Sometimes it's $349, but a lot of the time it's $299. Either way, it's a great watch for $299. | |
| Saris TD1 Trainer Desk - $66 off (In Stock) | $263 | N/A | REI | REI 20% sale, REI members use code MEMBER21 - Also, dear god, do not buy this. My final/full review will be coming soon, but for those that saw my Instagram story rants (or the DCR Supporter Quarantine Corner Episode 19, you'll note it's been a long time since I've been this frustrated with a product). But hey, if you still want to buy it...using the link here would be spiffy. |
| Elite Sterzo Smart - 20% off! | $100 | N/A | REI | REI 20% sale, REI members use code MEMBER21 |
 | Elite Sterzo *NOT SMART VERSION - 20% off | $55 | N/A | REI | REI 20% sale, REI members use code MEMBER21 - Note again, this is the version that does NOT have any smarts in it, so effectively just a plate to move your front wheel. |
| Saris MP1 NFinity Motion Platform - $240 off! (In stock) | $959 | N/A | REI | REI 20% sale, REI members use code MEMBER21 |
| Garmin Instinct Solar - $50 off $399/$449 | $349 | Amazon | Backcountry | This is a moderate deal on the Instinct solar family, though not the first or best time to date. Last November & December the units were $100 off. Still, as with the Fenix 6 Solar sales - $50 is $50 - so if you were in the market for one anyway... |
| Garmin Fenix 6X Pro Solar - $50 off | $899 | Amazon | Backcountry | This appears to be a semi-random out of cycle spring sale for Garmin (usually their Fenix sales are a bit closer to May, and usually for around $100-$150 off). Still, we haven't actually seen the newer solar models on sale yet - so if you're in the market, $50 is still $50. |
| Garmin Fenix 6 Pro Solar - $50 off | $749 | Amazon | Backcountry | This appears to be a semi-random out of cycle spring sale for Garmin (usually their Fenix sales are a bit closer to May, and usually for around $100-$150 off). Still, we haven't actually seen the newer solar models on sale yet - so if you're in the market, $50 is still $50. |
| Garmin Fenix 6S Pro Solar - $50 off | $749 | Amazon | Backcountry | This appears to be a semi-random out of cycle spring sale for Garmin (usually their Fenix sales are a bit closer to May, and usually for around $100-$150 off). Still, we haven't actually seen the newer solar models on sale yet - so if you're in the market, $50 is still $50. |
| Garmin Fenix 6 Series - $50 all models $549-$1,149 | $50 off | Amazon | Backcountry | |
| Hammerhead Karoo 2 - Up to $170 trade-in value $399 | Varies | N/A | Hammerhead Site | Hammerhead is doing a promo where you trade-in your older bike computer for up to $170/170EUR off your Karoo 2. You can trade-in some surprisingly old devices, like the 12 year old Garmin Edge 500 for example. Though, that almost has museum-grade potential these days... Either way, the Karoo 2 continues to impress me in terms of new features via its constant stream of firmware updates. |
 | Garmin Vivoactive 3 Music - $50 off $169 | $149 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ Very solid deal, and remember, this includes Spotify support too! | |
 | Amazon Echo Dot - 35% off! | $38 | Amazon | We've got a couple of Echo's around the DCR Cave, and mostly just use it to play music, but also more recently for some integrations. I don't have a specific need to pickup another one this year, but it's kinda incredible what kind of technology they can pack into that price. | |
| Samsung Galaxy Buds True Wireless Earbuds - 39% off | $79 | Amazon | This are obviously super popular, and having them be 31% off ought to make them even more popular. Wireless Charging Case included. | |
 | Panasonic LUMIX GH5 4K Digital Camera - $700 off! | Amazon | This is my main shooting cameras for video (they make great stills too, but I mainly got this for video), and I've bought two of them. $700 off is an awesome deal. In my case I got the kit. And in case it's even more of an endorsement, both GPLAMA & DesFit also use this camera too! | ||
 | Garmin Foreruuner 35 - $50 off $169 | $92 | Amazon | If you're looking for a solid budget GPS running watch, it's hard to go wrong here. Sure, it's a few years old now, but it'll track your race just fine and upload to Garmin Connect and all the other Strava-like sites as well. | |
| Apple Airpods (2nd Gen) - $50 off $159 | $99 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ This is the lowest price AirPods have ever been - this is solid! I use AirPods primarily when I'm travelling just to listen in airports, planes, etc... I don't tend to use these for workouts due to them falling out. Also, with the wireless charging case for $50 off. Personally, I just use the basic model. | |
| Apple Watch Series 6 - (44mm)- $50 Off $399/$499 (cellular) | $379 | Amazon | This is now the best deal we've seen on the Apple Watch Series 6. | |
| GoPro Hero 8 Black Camera Bundle - $70 off! | $279-$299 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ The Hero 8 is still a great camera, so if you don't need the extra bits of the newer Hero 9, this saves you a $100 in comparison. Plus, this includes an extra battery, shorty stick/tripod, head mount, and 32GB MicroSD Card. Note: Price seems to fluctuate a bit between $279 and $299. |
| GoPro Hero 8 Black Camera - $100 off | $249 | Amazon | This s a great price for the camera, though, also keep in mind for $50 more you get the extra battery, shorty stick, SD card, head mount. | |
 | DJI OSMO Action (Action Cam) - Normally $329 $199 (launched at $349) | $199 | Amazon | ⚡ This is a very solid price for the DJI OSMO Action, and it's a very strong first contender from DJI to compete with the Hero 7 Black (realistically, except for the dual-screen, it simply doesn't compete with the Hero 8 or Hero 9). I really like a lot of elements on the OSMO Action, but especially the dual-screen. Check out my full review for comparative thoughts. While I would have said that maybe we'd see a new OSMO Action sometime this past spring (an annual refresh cycling), I'm pretty sure COVID19 has killed any chance of that happening for a while. | |
| Apple Watch Series 6 - (40mm)- $50 Off $399/$499 (cellular) | $349 | Amazon | This is now the best deal we've seen on the Apple Watch Series 6. | |
 | Garmin Vivoactive 3 $129 | $119 | Amazon | ⚡ Obviously this is the previous edition, but dang, it's still a good price for a great little GPS watch. This has mostly been on sale at this price range for a while now, however, I've included it in the list merely because if you're looking for a deal then this is probably one of the best deals out there. | |
| Garmin inReach Mini Satellite Communicator (2-way) - $100 off | $249 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ This is a great deal on this unit which can send messages back and forth when there's no cellular service. It also connects to the Garmin Edge devices plus the Forerunner & Fenix devices for sending urgent messages sans-cell signals |
| Garmin Edge 530 Cycling GPS - $25 off $299 | $274 | Amazon | There hasn't been any sales on the Edge 530...since...well...anytime this year (save a few random retailers for a few hours). This, would be one of those random retailer details. Published Dec 26th, 2020 - probably won't last till tomorrow. | |
| Fitbit ACE 2 Activity Tracker for Kids - $20 Off | $49 | Amazon | ||
| Garmin HRM-PRO - $10 off! $129 | $119 | Amazon | ||
| Garmin Forerunner 245 Music - $50 off | $299 | Amazon | REI | Both the Forerunner 245 Music is sale for $50 off. While not a huge sale, it's actually the lowest we've seen either product priced to date. The FR245 Music supports Spotify, Amazon Music, and other streaming platforms. |
| Fitbit Charge 4 - 33% off! $149 | $99 | Amazon | ⚡ This just came out earlier this year, so this is a pretty solid deal for sure! | |
| Polar Ignite GPS - 12% off! $229 | $201 | Amazon | It's a good watch, and the 12% brings it down to roughly where it should be priced at anyway. :) | |
| Suunto 5 GPS Multisport Watch - 35% off $329 | $199 | Amazon | Backcountry | ⚡ A very strong deal for this complete multisport watch that I really like. Well nailed on price here. |
 | Garmin Forerunner 945 Bundle (with HRM-TRI & HRM-SWIM) - $80 off | $669 | Amazon | This is a good deal, in fact, the best deal on the FR945 we've seen in 2020. I don't anticipate this lasting long | |
| Fitbit Sense - $50 off! $329 | $279 | Amazon | REI | This is the first time we've seen the brand new Fitbit Sense on sale. Not a bad deal at all! |
| Suunto 7 Wear OS Watch - 30% off $399 | $349 | Amazon | Backcountry | ⚡ This is now the lowest price this watch has ever been at - and definitely a price to pick it up if you were in the market for it. |
| Google Nest Mesh WiFi Router - 18% off | $139 | Amazon | These are the WiFi mesh access points I use both at home and the DCR Cave. Love them - I don't need to dork with them, they just work. | |
| Garmin Vivofit Jr. 3 - 25% off | $59 | Amazon | Sale includes all Vivofit Jr 3 variants. | |
| Garmin Swim 2 - $50 off $249 | $199 | Amazon | This is only the 2nd time we've seen the Garmin Swim 2 on sale. And as part of my in-depth review I found it easily the most accurate openwater swim watch GPS-wise I've ever tested. Which, is good, since most pools seem to be closed these days. :-/ | |
| Fitbit Inspire 2 - 30% off $99 | $69 | Amazon | REI | |
 | Manfrotto Compact Tripod (MKCOMPACTACN) - 34% off $69 | $51 | Amazon | This is my main tripod I use day in and day out, and during all my travelling. It's probably got 500,000-800,000 miles of travel on it, and it still looks like new - despite the fact that I treat it like crap. It's out in the salt spray waves often, in the mud and rain, etc... It just rocks. I just bought another one to have one permanently setup in the studio (+ one for traveling). | |
| Garmin Magnetless Sensors Cadence/Speed Bundle - 24% off | $53 | Amazon | This bundle includes both the dual ANT+/BLE Speed & Cadence sensors (V2), and is notable because the speed sensor not only transmits like any other, but also records your rides even when you don't have a bike computer/watch paired to it - making it perfect for commuter bikes. Both sensors are fully compatible with basically every app/watch/bike computer out there. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 735XT - $70 off $349 | $219 | Amazon | This is still a really good deal for a full featured triathlon watch. Sure, it got down to $169 for Amazon Prime Day, but this is still a solid price. | |
| Garmin Instinct - $80 off $299 | $149 | Amazon | ⚡ Sure, the new Solar variants came out this summer with a few new features, but at their core the Instincts are mostly the same. Still, $149 is the lowest price the Instinct has ever been at. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 245 - $50 off $299/$349 | $249 | Amazon | REI | Both the Forerunner 245 is on sale for $50 off. While not a huge sale, it's actually the lowest we've seen either product priced to date. |
| Garmin Edge 1030 - $150 off! $499 | $399-$469 | Amazon | ⚡ This is a pretty solid deal for this unit, especially since it's getting a number of the recently announced 1030 Plus features later this year. Note: This price keeps floating up/down hourly. | |
 | Garmin Forerunner 645 Music $399/$449 (with music) | $257 | Amazon | This isn't a bad price per se, but for $20 more you'll get so much more watch out of the FR935 deal. However, that doesn't include music, whereas this FR645 Music Deal Does. Also, the 51% off is per list, but realistically we're talking about $70 off normal prices. | |
| Fitbit Versa 2 - $50 off | $129 | Amazon | REI | ⚡ If you don't need the new features of the Versa 3 (of which, there are almost none except for built-in GPS), then this is a great option. |
| SanDisk 1TB Extreme PRO Portable External SSD - 39% off | $169 | Amazon | This is the high speed drive I use to store the footage I'm actively video editing, so that I can edit it on both my iMac at the office, and then my MacBook when travelling or at home. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 45/45S - $50 off $199 | $149 | Amazon | REI | If you're looking for a runners focused watch, there's no better deal on the market than this. Period. The FR45 basically packs all the features of the previous generation FR235...just now in the FR45 series. Seriously, this is a solid deal. |
 | Apple Watch Series 3 (38mm) $169-$179 | $169 | Amazon | This is the lowest price we've ever seen for the Apple Watch Series 3. While the Series 6 is the new one, the Series 3 has almost all the same features (and still gets all the updates). It's dipped a few times to $179, but rarely $169. | |
| Garmin Vivoactive 4/4S - $65 off $299 | $235 | Amazon | REI | This is Garmin's current offering to compete with the Apple Watch series (alongside the Garmin Venu), and this is a good price, though, not as low as we saw for Amazon Prime Day at $199. |
| Garmin FR935 - $100-$200 off $499 | $289 | Amazon | ⚡ Sure, it's not the latest edition, but the FR935 is the staple of many triathletes and runners, and it still an incredible solid watch. We saw this a bit lower last month on Amazon Prime Day ($239). Also, I say $100-$200 off, because the 'base' price fluctuates a bit these days. Sometimes retail is $399 sometimes $499. | |
| Garmin Speed Sensor V2 - 18% off! | $32 | Amazon | This is Garmin's latest ANT+/Bluetooth Smart speed sensor, but notably, it's also one that can record your rides without being connected to a bike computer, making it perfect for tracking mileage on a commuter bike. I'm super tempted to pickup a few of these and outfit all our commuter/cargo bikes for 2021 to see what the mileage/breakdown by trip/etc looks like at the end of the year. Yes, I'm a geek. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 945 - 5% off $599/599EUR | $568 | Amazon | Hey...some discount is better than no discount! | |
| Garmin Venu GPS Smartwatch - $100 off! $299 | $249 | Amazon | REI | This is about the lowest we've seen yet for the Garmin Venu GPS, which includes an AMOLED display as well as music (even Spotify offline). Solid deal. |
| Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 - $60 off | $339 | Amazon | This is a pretty new watch, so $60 off is a solid discount! | |
| Insta360 One R Action Cam - 15% off | $466 | Amazon | The entire lineup of Insta360 One R action cams are 15% off, including the 1" and 360 variants. Overall it's a good cam with good picture clarity (I've mainly used the 1" 5.3K variant), but I find the software really lets it down. | |
| Garmin Fenix 6 Series - $150 all models $549-$1,149 | $150 off | N/A | REI | ⚡⚡ This deal is back! This is a great deal that showed up last spring, and it also includes the newly launched Fenix 6/6S Solar units from this past summer |
 | Garmin Tactix Charlie - $150 off | $599 | Amazon | The Tactix Charlie is essentially a Fenix geared towards military folks (Amazon Prime Days) | |
| Suunto 9 - 46% off! $599 (non-baro is $499) | $346 | Amazon | Backcountry | This is about a good a deal as we've ever seen in the US for the Suunto 9. |
| Garmin Instinct Solar - $100 off $399/$449 | $299 | Amazon | Backcountry | This is the first time we've seen a deal on the Garmin Instinct Solar, and the best deal I expect we'll see for a while. |
| Apple Watch SE - $30 off $279 | $249 | Amazon | ||
| Beats PowerBeats Pro Wireless Sport Headphones - $50 off $249 | $199 | Amazon | ⚡ These are my daily driver headphones that I use for all my trainer rides, and anything else sport related. While they're not perfect (namely the charging case), it's what I keep going back to every day because of the seamless Apple ecosystem integration (iPad/Apple TV/iOS/Mac). | |
 | Polar OH1 Plus Optical Sensor - 20% off! $79 | $63 | Amazon | ⚡ I love this little sensor, and you'll see it in almost every one of my watch/HR sensor reviews as a comparison/reference strap. It's just so darn accurate and so easy to use. Every optical HR sensor (and app with it) should aspire to be what this thing is. | |
| Withings Body+ WiFi Scale - 30% off | $69 | Amazon | I've long been a fan of the Withings WiFi scales, especially since they can connect/push data to so many platforms, including Zwift! Note that the Body+ simply includes more data. | |
| Withings Body WiFi Scale - 20% off $59 | $47 | Amazon | I've always had a soft spot in my heart for the Withings WiFi Scale, they were the first in this category a gazillion years ago, and frankly, they're still basically the best in terms of partnerships and simplicity. It just works. | |
 | Withings/Nokia Health Body Cardio WiFI Scale - 20% off $149 | $119 | Amazon | This is the highest end scale that Withings makes, which includes additional metrics - specifically heart rate. Though, honestly, I'm not sure why you need to know your heart rate standing on your scale. | |
| Lezyne Mega-C Cycling GPS - 33% off! $199USD | $133 | Amazon | This is a great deal for the Mega-C, which is also a great full-featured bike computer. It's got full Bluetooth/ANT+ sensor support, the ability to give turn by turn directions, and plenty more. | |
| PowerBeats Pro Wireless Sport Headphones - $75 off! $249 | $174 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ These are my daily driver headphones that I use for all my trainer rides, and anything else sport related. While they're not perfect (namely the charging case), it's what I keep going back to every day because of the seamless Apple ecosystem integration (iPad/Apple TV/iOS/Mac). | |
| Nurvv Running Insoles - 30% off $299 | $199 | Amazon | This is a pretty new product, just launched this past fall that sits inside your shoe and even has GPS built into the pod sidewalls. I'm still in the midst of testing it currently, and expect a review sometime in December. | |
 | Sonos One Smart Speaker - $50 off | $149 | Amazon | Sonos One SL | I use a blend of SONOS speakers at home and at the office. Love them, and the sales are few and far between! I use the microphone-less version (Sonos One SL), which is also on sale and a bit cheaper. Same internals, just without a microphone. |
 | Kinetic Smart Control Trainer Resistance Unit - 20% off | $279 | Amazon | So this is a smart trainer (ANT+/BLE) resistance unit that fits on *ANY* Kinetic trainer frame, even those ones that are like 15 years old. It's a great way to turn an old 'dumb trainer' Kinetic frame into a new smart trainer frame - especially for 20% off. | |
 | NPE Heartbeatz - $10 off! | $39 | NPE Store | This little pod will re-transmit out your Apple watch heart rate as standard ANT+/Bluetooth Smart, Note the base sale price is 10% off, and then you'll add coupon code THE5KRUNNER to get another 10% off that price. | |
| Stryd V2 Running Pod - $20 off | $199 | Stryd Store | Stryd pretty much only puts their items on once a year at Black Friday, so if you're in the market for one, now's the time. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 945 - $80 off $599/599EUR | $519 | Amazon | This is a good deal, in fact, the best deal on the FR945 we've seen in 2020. I don't anticipate this lasting long | |
| Apple iPad - Latest Model 8th Gen (64GB) - $64 off! | $334 | Amazon | I use my iPad primarily for TrainerRoad as well as Zwift when not with a larger display. I also occasionally use it for other apps, namely The SufferFest - but I pretty much test every smart trainer app on it. This is the latest iPad that was just announced barely two weeks ago, so not too bad to see it on sale already (US AMAZON DEAL ONLY). | |
| SanDisk 256GB Extreme PRO SD Cards - 43% off | $56 | Amazon | I use the SanDisk Extreme Pro SD Cards exclusively for all my video/photo shooting on my Panasonic GH5 and Nikon cameras (video and stills), including up to 6K recording with the GH5. I've mostly used 128's, but more and more lately I'm filling up cards faster with higher bitrates, so this sale is gonna have me pickup a bunch of the 256GB ones instead. The 128GB/512GB/1TB ones are also on sale too viathe same link. | |
 | Garmin Forerunner 935 Tri Bundle- $100 Off | $399 | Amazon | ⚡ Sure, it's not the latest edition, but the FR935 is the staple of many triathletes and runners, and it still an incredible solid watch. This bundle includes the HRM-TRI and HRM-SWIM chest straps. | |
| Lacie 2TB & 4TB Ruggedized USB Drives - 27% off | $109 | Amazon | These are the drives I primarily use for large piles of storage with my laptop and daily use before offloading to a file server. I also sometimes edit videos off these too (though, for multiple 4K streams in video it can be a tiny bit slower than SSD drives). But still, definitely recommend these. | |
| Garmin FR935 - $100-$200 off $499 | $269 | Amazon | ⚡ Sure, it's not the latest edition, but the FR935 is the staple of many triathletes and runners, and it still an incredible solid watch. We saw this a bit lower last month on Amazon Prime Day ($239). Also, I say $100-$200 off, because the 'base' price fluctuates a bit these days. Sometimes retail is $399 sometimes $499. | |
| Jaybird Vista Wireless Headphones - 44% off! $179 | $99 | N/A | Backcountry | ⚡ I like these headphones quite a bit, and tested them a while back. A very solid deal for sure here! |
 | NPE CABLE - $5 off! $59 | $44 | N/A | NPE Store | This sensor is rarely on sale...so take any cash off ya can! Note the base sale price is 10% off, and then you'll add coupon code THE5KRUNNER to get another 10% off that price. |

| Polar H10 Chest Strap (Dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart) - 19% off $89 | $72 | Amazon | This is a great dual ANT+/Bluetooth Smart (with two Bluetooth Smart connections) chest strap that you'll often find me using as a reference strap in heart rate sensor testing. We only tend to see deals on it around Black Friday, always topping out around 20%. | |
 | Garmin Forerunner 235 Running Watch $249 | $119 | Amazon | ⚡Look, this isn't the latest generation watch (the FR245 is, released last year). But, in terms of a damn-solid running watch, the FR235 absolutely fits the bill. You'll find it on many runners wrists in running races (ya know, once those happen again). | |
| Garmin Forerunner 735XT $349 | $169 | Amazon | ⚡ If one were to have a 'Yo mama' joke in here somewhere, the FR735XT has been around longer than Yo Mama, however, at $169...that's compelling if you just simply want a basic triathlon watch that still supports more sports features than most of its competitors. | |
| Garmin Fenix 5X - 50% off $599 | $299 | Amazon | ⚡ Down to $299 is a substantial deal for the Fenix 5X (non-Plus), so don't expect much in the way of major firmware updates. But still, at that price it's solid - incredible really. Note: The Fenix 5X in this series actually does include mapping, whereas the other Fenix 5 (non-Plus) units don't have it. | |
| FORM Swim Goggles (with heads-up display) - $20 off | $179 | Amazon | ⚡ We don't often see deals on the FORM swim goggle (last Black Friday was the last time). So if you're looking to pick this up, this is the time to do so! | |
| Garmin HRM-DUAL (ANT+/Bluetooth Smart Strap) - $15 off $69 | $56 | Amazon | ⚡ This is one of my go-to straps these days (ANT+ & two concurrent BLE connections). It's floated on and off being on sale, but this is about the lowest we've seen it. | |
| Garmin Edge 830 Cycling GPS - 8% off! $399 | $369 | Amazon | ⚡It's a rare day to see the Garmin Edge 830 on sale - so rare to date in fact that I don't have any record of it being on sale previously. This appears to be an Amazon-specific sale, so I don't expect it to last long. | |
| Nest Cam Outdoors - 10% off | $185 | Amazon | We use one of these and so far after I think just about three years, it's working great for us. Love it, and works better than trying to stick a regular Nest Cam out the window (since it'll reflect both during daytime and at night with the IR sensor). | |
| Stages Dash L50 - $90 off! $299 | $209 | N/A | Backcountry | The Stages Dash M50 & L50 are both 30% off, in addition, all Stages Dash accessories are 30% off. |
 | DJI Mavic Mini - 10% off $499 ($549 combo) | $359 | Amazon | ||
 | NPE Runn Treadmill Sensor for Zwift - 19% off | $80 | N/A | NPE Store | This sensor is rarely on sale, and my favorite for treadmill use. Love it. Note the base sale price is 10% off, and then you'll add coupon code THE5KRUNNER to get another 10% off that price. |
| Apple Watch SE - $50 off $279 | $229 | Amazon | This is the first time we've seen the Apple Watch SE on sale, and $50 off is a heck of a solid deal considering the far more expensive Apple Watch Series tends to only be on sale for $15-$25 off at a time. | |
| Apple Watch Series 3 (38mm) - HOLY COW DISCOUNT! $169-$179 | $119 | Amazon | ⚡⚡⚡ Holy cow, this is an incredible deal for the Apple Watch Series 3, $119USD - it's never been anywhere near this low. This is the lowest price we've ever seen for the Apple Watch Series 3. While the Series 6 is the new one, the Series 3 has almost all the same features (and still gets all the updates). It's dipped a few times to $169. | |
| Garmin Edge 530 Cycling GPS - $50 off! $299 | $249 | N/A | BH Photo | ⚡ This is the the lowest price we've ever seen on the Edge 530, and only from a handful of retailers. This is one of the main units I use for my day to day riding and testing. It's also an B&H specific sale and is highly unlikely to last long (B&H is the largest photo gear retailer out there, but also does a strong Apple & Garmin side business). |
| Garmin HRM-PRO - 23% off! $129 | $99 | Amazon | ⚡ If you're in the market for the HRM-PRO, this seems like a no brainer to pickup on sale. Especially since it just came out and isn't actually on the 'approved' list of Garmin sale items, so I suspect this is a short-term Amazon one-off. Take it while its there! | |
| Apple Airpods Pro - $80 off! $249 | $169 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ This is the lowest AirPods Pro has ever been, even lower than the Amazon Prime Day Deals. ***NOTE: YOU MUST ADD IT TO YOUR CART TO SEE THE $169 SALE PRICE**** | |
 | Stages Dash L10 - $75 | $75 | N/A | Backcountry | ⚡ This is a fantastic price on this unit. This is a full featured power-meter supporting cycling GPS unit, packed with structured-workout features. Seriously, nothing comes close at this price. |
| Polar Ignite GPS - $45 off! $229 | $183 | Amazon | This is a very solid deal for this unit, and about the lowest we've seen it. Note that the price varies slightly based on the exact color band you select. But either way, it's a great deal. | |
| Synology 4 bay NAS DiskStation DS920+ (Diskless) - $110 off | $439 | Amazon | I use Synology NAS units for all my file storage at the DCR Cave. This unit is a slightly smaller variant of what I use (DS1817), but mainly just with less storage space. The DS920+ linked here is a solid deal at $110 off, though, keep in mind if just using for simple storage, the DS418 is cheaper (but doesn't support expansion units). Also, remember you'll need to add disks. I currently find 8TB units are the sweet spot on price vs capacity. | |
| Bontrager Flare/Ion RT Lights (ANT+ Connected) - 20% off | From $47 | N/A | REI | Bontrager was one of the first companies to make connected bike lights that pair up to Garmin's bike computers and watches. And these tiny little units are still among the best for road bikes as daytime running lights. Love em'. They'll automatically turn on/off when you start/stop your Garmin. |

But still, at that price it's solid - incredible really. Note: This is still the watch my wife uses as her daily watch, even for her run this morning. | |

| Lasko High Velocity Pro-Performance Fan (U15617) - 16% off | $59 | Amazon | This is one of the most popular indoor trainer fans out there, which rivals the Wahoo Headwind fan but cost a fraction of the price. Of course, it lacks ANT+/Bluetooth integration, but realistically if you really want that you can add a smart outlet for $10 to toggle it on/off from your phone if need be. I've actually got this fan in the DCR Cave recently on advice of many people. | |
| Suunto 9 Baro Series - $100 off $599 (non-baro is $499) | $449 | Amazon | This isn't quite as good a deal as for Amazon Prime Day when it was 46% off (basically $200 off), but it's still a deal nonetheless. | |
| SanDisk 256GB Extreme PRO SD Cards - 34% off | $66 | Amazon | I use the SanDisk Extreme Pro SD Cards exclusively for all my video/photo shooting on my Panasonic GH5 and Nikon cameras (video and stills), including up to 6K recording with the GH5. I've mostly used 128's, but more and more lately I'm filling up cards faster with higher bitrates, so this sale is gonna have me pickup a bunch of the 256GB ones instead. The 128GB/512GB/1TB ones are also on sale too viathe same link. | |
| Garmin Fenix 6 Pro - 10% off $549-$1,149 | $630 | Amazon | The Fenix 6 Pro (not the S or X variants) is on sale by Amazon for 10% off, or basically saving $70. This is a good deal, though obviously not an incredible deal. The last time we saw Fenix 6 deals was back in May 2020, for $150 off. | |
| Suunto 7 Wear OS Watch - $50 off $399 | $449 | Amazon | The Suunto 7 floats on and off sale occasionally, but usually not more than 20% off. | |
| Jackery Portable Power Station - $50 off | $249 | Amazon | This is something I use frequently when shooting out and about and I need to re-charge a crapton of drone batteries, action cameras, or just cameras and such. I also use it on trips to Eurobike and elsewhere to keep equipment charged. Technically you can even hook a solar panel up to it. Heck, I've even powered a KICKR trainer ride from it! | |
| Withings Body+ WiFi Scale - 11% off | $89 | Amazon | I've long been a fan of the Withings WiFi scales, especially since they can connect/push data to so many platforms, including Zwift! Note that the Body+ simply includes more data. | |
| SanDisk 1TB Extreme PRO Portable External SSD - 32% off | $189 | Amazon | This is the high speed drive I use to store the footage I'm actively video editing, so that I can edit it on both my iMac at the office, and then my MacBook when travelling or at home. | |
| Garmin Fenix 5 - 30% off $599 | $249 | Amazon | This is a good deal if you don't care about features like music, maps, or contactless payments on the newer Fenix 5 Plus Series or Fenix 6 series. Keep in mind you are buying an older products, so don't expect any feature updates. But there are still likely millions of Fenix 5 watches on peoples wrists every day running and riding. | |

| Garmin Vivomove HR with leather band - 50% off | $169 | Amazon | This is a good deal, though not incredible deal. The Vivomove HR has been replaced by the Vivomove Luxary series, so, it's not quite as new, but still has many of the same core features. | ||
| Garmin Fenix 5X - 30% off $599 | $299 | Amazon | This one - the Fenix 5X does have mapping, whereas the Fenix 5/5S do not. This is a good deal if you don't care about features like music, or contactless payments on the newer Fenix 5 Plus Series or Fenix 6 series. Keep in mind you are buying an older products, so don't expect any feature updates. But there are still likely millions of Fenix 5 watches on peoples wrists every day running and riding. | |
 | Garmin Fenix 5X Plus $699/699EUR | $399 | Amazon | This is a strong deal for the Fenix 5X Plus as well, which is the largest of the three sizes. It includes payments, music, as well as well as PulseOx. | |

 | Samsung Galaxy Active - 30% off $199 | $139 | Amazon | This is the original version, though, it did get most of the updates of the Samsung Galaxy Active 2 edition. | |
| Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 - $30 off | $399 | Amazon | This is a pretty new watch, so any discount is a good discount! | |
| Samsung Galaxy Buds True Wireless Earbuds - 31% off | $89 | Amazon | This are obviously super popular, and having them be 31% off ought to make them even more popular. Wireless Charging Case included. | |
| Garmin Fenix 5S Plus $699/699EUR | $349 | Amazon | This is a great deal on the Fenix 5S Plus (the smaller of the variants), and includes music as well as contactless payments. And, fun fact, it's still my wife's daily watch. Amazon Prime Days) | |
| Garmin Edge 1030 - $300 off! $499 | $299 | Amazon | ⚡⚡⚡ Holy crap that's an incredible deal. But the real kicker to remember is that the Edge 1030 is getting almost all of the Edge 1030 Plus's new features (plus it already got all the new Edge 530/830 features). Seriously, this is probably the best deal of the day. This deal probably won't last! UPDATE: YOU NEED TO CLICK "VIEW OFFER" on right side. ALSO, DEAL SEEMS TO BE ON/OFF, KEEP CHECKING BACK. | |
| Polar Vantage M - $50 off $279 | $223 | Amazon | ⚡ This is a great deal on the Polar Vantage M, which is a solid mid-range triathlon/multisport watch. | |
| Garmin Fenix 5 Plus $699/699EUR | $349 | Amazon | And finally, the Fenix 5 Plus (non-S/X) joins the sale fray, also at $349 - which is a fantastic deal for all three of these units. Again, all of the Fenix 5 Plus units have music/maps/contactless payments. | |
| Lacie 2TB & 4TB Ruggedized USB Drives - 30% off | $105 | Amazon | These are the drives I primarily use for large piles of storage with my laptop and daily use before offloading to a file server. I also sometimes edit videos off these too (though, for multiple 4K streams in video it can be a tiny bit slower than SSD drives). But still, definitely recommend these. | |
| Suunto 9 Baro Series - 40% off $599 (non-baro is $499) | $359 | Amazon | ⚡ This is as good as we'll typically see for the Suunto 9 series and sales, sometimes Europe gets a touch bit higher to around 46% off, but 40% off is solid for sure. | |
| Suunto 7 Wear OS Watch - $70 off $399 | $433 | Amazon | The Suunto 7 floats on and off sale occasionally, but usually not more than 20% off. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 935 - $260 off $499 | $239 | Amazon | ⚡ Sure, it's not the latest edition, but the FR935 is the staple of many triathletes and runners, and it still an incredible solid watch. (Amazon Prime Days) | |
| Apple Watch Series 6 - 44mm $399/$499 (cellular) | $15 off | Amazon | It's not the biggest deal ever...but hey, it's a deal (and the only deal!). | |
| DJI Mavic Mini Fly More Combo Kit - $100 off | $399 | Amazon | ⚡ This is a great deal, and the lowest we've seen to date. Note deal is *ONLY* on Oct 13th and 14th at Amazon. | |
| Garmin Edge 130 $199 | $99 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ Woah, that's a solid deal, we've never seen it this low (Amazon Prime Day) | |
 | Withings Body WiFi Scale - 20% off | $47 | Amazon | I've long been a fan of the Withings WiFi scales, especially since they can connect/push data to so many platforms, including Zwift! | |
| Synology 4 bay NAS DiskStation DS920+ (Diskless) - $110 off | $439 | Amazon | I use Synology NAS units for all my file storage at the DCR Cave. This unit is a slightly smaller variant of what I use (DS1817), but mainly just with less storage space. The DS920+ linked here is a solid deal at $110 off, though, keep in mind if just using for simple storage, the DS418 is cheaper (but doesn't support expansion units). Also, remember you'll need to add disks. I currently find 8TB units are the sweet spot on price vs capacity. (P.S - Thanks to Jose down below in the comments for finding this deal and asking my thoughts - more discussion there.) | |
| Garmin Forerunner 645 Music $399/$449 (with music) | $219 | Amazon | This isn't a bad price per se, but for $20 more you'll get so much more watch out of the FR935 deal. However, that doesn't include music, whereas this FR645 Music Deal Does | |
| Garmin Tactix Charlie - $350 off | $399 | Amazon | The Tactix Charlie is essentially a Fenix geared towards military folks (Amazon Prime Days) | |
 | Fitbit Versa Lite $169 | $69 | Amazon | DEAL MIGHT BE GONE NOW ⚡⚡ I don't even understand how this watch is only $69, but seriously, that's a great price to get a smartwatch from Fitbit (Amazon Prime Days). | |
 | Fitbit Aria Air Connected Weight Scale - $30 off | $34 | Amazon | I haven't used this one yet, though have used past Fitbit Aria scales and if you're in the Fitbit ecosystem they work great (Amazon Prime Days) | |
| Garmin Instinct - $100 off $299 | $149 | Amazon | ⚡ Sure, the new Solar variants came out this summer with a few new features, but at their core the Instincts are mostly the same. $149 is the lowest price to date we've seen on them. (Amazon Prime Days) | |
| Amazon Echo Dot - 60% off | $18 | Amazon | I use this around the studio - and for $18, it's kinda incredible what kind of technology they can pack into that price. | |
 | Microsoft Surface Headphones 2 - $50 off! | $199 | Amazon | Ok, done and ordered. I'd been waiting a while (2-3 years) to order a new pair of headphones. I'm still using an older pair of Bose headphones that I've replaced the pads/everything on multiple times. But I'm tired of using AAA batteries. However, I really wanted USB-C charging. Donezo, ordered! | |
| Fitbit Versa 2 - $50 off | $127 | Amazon | ⚡ If you don't need the new features of the Versa 3 (of which, there are almost none except for built-in GPS), then this is a great option. | |
| PowerBeats Pro Wireless Sport Headphones - $75 off! $249 | $174 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ These are my daily driver headphones that I use for all my trainer rides, and anything else sport related. While they're not perfect (namely the charging case), it's what I keep going back to every day because of the seamless Apple ecosystem integration (iPad/Apple TV/iOS/Mac). | |
| Polar OH1 Plus Optical Sensor - 20% off! $79 | $63 | Amazon | ⚡ I love this little sensor, and you'll see it in almost every one of my watch/HR sensor reviews as a comparison/reference strap. It's just so darn accurate and so easy to use. Every optical HR sensor (and app with it) should aspire to be what this thing is. | |
| Withings Body+ WiFi Scale - 30% off | $69 | Amazon | I've long been a fan of the Withings WiFi scales, especially since they can connect/push data to so many platforms, including Zwift! Note that the Body+ simply includes more data. | |
| Garmin Vivoactive 4/4S - $100 off $299 | $199 | Amazon | ⚡ This is Garmin's current offering to compete with the Apple Watch series (alongside the Garmin Venu), and is currently the lowest price we've seen to date. (Amazon Prime Days) | |
| Garmin RTL510 Varia Cycling Radar | $119 | Amazon | ⚡ This is a great deal for the Varia Radar. While it's not the newest variant released this spring, frankly, it doesn't matter. Almost nobody supports the new features (Bluetooth connectivity), and Wahoo/Stages/Hammerhead/Garmin all support this existing version fully. (Amazon Prime Days) | |
 | Wahoo KICKR + CLIMB Bundle - $200 off! | $1,599 | N/A | Competitive Cyclist | This is a simple bundle of the Wahoo KICKR 2018 + the KICKR CLIMB, for $1,599 (versus the normal cost of $1,799). |
| Garmin Vivoactive 4 - 31% off $299 | N/A | Backcountry | ⚡ This is by *FAR* the lowest price I've seen for the Garmin Vivoactive 4. A very solid deal. My guess here is that they're just trying to offload some inventory, as I don't expect a replacement given Garmin just announced it's Venu SQ (and typically Garmin would concurrently announce the Venu/Vivoactive series at the same time). This unit has music (with Spotify), and an always-on screen. This is $61 lower than any price I've seen. | |
| DJI OSMO Action (Action Cam) - Normally $329 $199 (launched at $349) | $199 | Amazon | ⚡ This is by far the lowest price we've seen on the DJI OSMO Action, and it's a very strong first contender from DJI to compete with the Hero 7 Black (realistically, except for the dual-screen, it simply doesn't compete with the Hero 8 or Hero 9). I really like a lot of elements on the OSMO Action, but especially the dual-screen. Check out my full review for comparative thoughts. While I would have said that maybe we'd see a new OSMO Action sometime this past spring (an annual refresh cycling), I'm pretty sure COVID19 has killed any chance of that happening for a while. | |
 | GoPro Hero 8 Black - $100 off! $399 | Amazon | ⚡ This is a great deal - and the lowest we've ever seen the GoPro Hero 8 down to, and it's been this way for a few months now. GoPro does tend to release new cameras each year in late September/Early October. | ||
| Garmin Instinct - $100 off $299 | Amazon | This is a solid deal on a solid watch. It's flirted with $199 here and there at various sale prices, but with the Instinct Solar coming out last month, this might be the new norm. Either way, it's a solid price. | ||
 | Fitbit Inspire HR - $30 Off $69 | $69 | Amazon | ||
| Fitbit Versa Lite - $60 Off $169 | Amazon | |||
| Fitbit Charge 4 - $20 off $149 | $129 | Amazon | ||
 | Wahoo KICKR Direct Connect Adapter - 20% off | $79 | N/A | Competitivecyclist | |
 | Apple Watch Series 5 - $100+ off $399/$499 (cellular) | Amazon | I believe this is the best deal we've seen to date on the Apple Watch Series 5, at $100 off. I wouldn't expect a new Apple Watch anytime soon (typical release timeframe is fall, but who knows this year). This is for both the 40mm and 44mm versions. | ||
| Garmin Forerunner 735XT - 40% off (EUROPE DEALS) $349 | N/A | Wiggle | ||
| Garmin Vector 3 - 24% off (EUROPE DEALS) $999 | N/A | Wiggle | ||
| Garmin Forerunner 945 - 13% off (EUROPE DEAL) $599/599EUR | €516 | N/A | Wiggle | |
| Garmin Edge 1030 - 42% off! (EUROPE DEAL) $499 | N/A | Wiggle | This is a pretty solid deal for this unit, especially since it's getting a number of the recently announced 1030 Plus features later this year. | |
| Garmin Fenix 6 Series - 9% off (EUROPE DEALS) $549-$1,149 | €631 | N/A | Wiggle | |
| Polar Vantage M - 15-19% off (EUROPE DEAL) $279 | N/A | Wiggle | ||
| Suunto 9 Baro Series - 46% off (EUROPE DEALS) $599 (non-baro is $499) | N/A | Wiggle | Note: This does appear to be out of stock at the moment, so perhaps keep checking back? | |
| Garmin Forerunner 45/45S - $50 off $199 | $149 | Amazon | If you're looking for a runners focused watch, there's no better deal on the market than this. Period. The FR45 basically packs all the features of the previous generation FR235...just now in the FR45 series. Seriously, this is a solid deal. | |
| Stages Bike - Free Stages Dash M50/L50 with purchase $2899 | Save $250+ | Once you add a Stages Dash M50 or L50 to your cart with a Stages Bike, it'll automatically detect the cost of the Dash (so, saving you $250+). Deal ends Sunday, June 28th. | ||
| Garmin Swim 2 - $50 off $249 | $199 | Amazon | This is the first time we've seen the Garmin Swim 2 on sale. And as part of my in-depth review I found it easily the most accurate openwater swim watch GPS-wise I've ever tested. Which, is good, since most pools seem to be closed these days. :-/ | |
 | DJI OSMO Pocket - $100 off | Amazon | This is the tiny little hand-held gimbal. I actually use this from time to time at tradeshows to shoot b-roll primarily. | ||
| Suunto 9 Baro Series - 30% off $599 (non-baro is $499) | Amazon | |||
| Garmin Forerunner 945 - $50 off $599/599EUR | $549 | Amazon | Not quite as good a deal as the Fenix 6 Series at $150 off, but hey, can't look at gift horse in the mouth. Or, something like that. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 245 & 245 Music - $50 off $299/$349 | $249 & $299 | Amazon | Both the Forerunner 245 & 245 Music are on sale for $50 off. While not a huge sale, it's actually the lowest we've seen either product priced to date. So, that's worth considering. The FR245 Music supports Spotify, Amazon Music, and other streaming platforms. | |
| Suunto 5 GPS Multisport Watch - 17% off $329 | $279 | Amazon | This is a very solid deal for this complete multisport watch. It's gonna be hard to find another device on the market today priced at $230 that works well for triathletes. | |
| GoPro Hero 8 Black Bundles with three batteries + SD Card $399 | Amazon | ⚡ There's some great deals in here. The base GoPro Hero 8 Black is down to $299, but this adds in two extra batteries, plus an SD card, plus a microSD card reader. Food for thought. | ||
| Garmin Vivoactive 4/4S - $60 off $299 | Amazon | Deciding on the 'correct' non-sale price is honestly a bit tricky. It floats between $299 and $349 with such regularity that one could realistically call either the non-sale price. But it does stick at $349 often for a month or so. Thus, if you wanted the VA4, being at $289 is solid. | ||
| Garmin Forerunner 945 Bundle (with HRM-TRI & HRM-SWIM) - $50 off | $699 | Amazon | Not quite as good a deal as the Fenix 6 Series at $150 off, but hey, can't look at gift horse in the mouth. Or, something like that. | |

| Garmin Venu GPS Smartwatch - $50 off $299 | Amazon | This has somewhat become the new baseline for Venu. Sometimes it's $349, but a lot of the time it's $299. Either way, it's a great watch for $299. Deal ends May 16th, 2020. | ||

 | Garmin Forerunner 35 GPS Watch | $99 | Amazon | This is amazing deal for a high-quality GPS watch. No, it's not crazy fancy. It has the basics, including intervals and an optical HR sensor (and the usual activity tracking/etc...). It's been a while since we've seen a Garmin watch under $100. | |

 | CycleOps Hammer (Original) - $200 off $1,199USD | $599 | N/A | This is a solid deal if you don't mind the slight racket that the original CycleOps Hammer makes. Note that basically there's virtually no feature differences between the H1/H2/H3 - just different colors of paint and on the H3, a different belt that makes it quieter. They're already running near identical firmware (the original Hammer got a big firmware update Aug 2019 to bring them all inline). | |

 | All Pioneer Power Meters & Bike Computer Gear Clearance! $999 | 40% off | Amazon | This is a Pioneer-wide clearance deal for everything power meter and cycling computer from them, following the acquisition by Shimano this past week. Note that Pioneer (as well as Shimano) have stated that warranties/etc will remain in place, as well as support. So risk-wise this is super-low risk. There are some challenges with the 8000 & 9100 based cranksets and accuracy, but Pioneer has options that don't include those cranksets. Note that Clever Training doesn't have a ton of extra inventory here, so most of this stuff won't last very long. | |
| Tacx NEO 2 Smart $999 | $998 | N/A | ⚡ This is a great deal, especially considering there's such little difference between the NEO 2 and the NEO 2T. We saw this deal back in the fall, and it looks like Tacx found another pile of original NEO 2's to clearance out. | |
| Elite Direto X Smart Trainer - Normally $899 $899 | $799 | Amazon | This is a solid deal for this trainer, and aside from generic 20% deals we saw over Black Friday, this is probably one of the better deals out there. The 'bonus' to Direto X is that I've seen virtually no issues with it in terms of early teething bits like the Elite Suito. | |
| Garmin Venu GPS Smartwatch - $100 off! $299 | Amazon | This is a very solid deal on this, and brings us back to Black Friday pricing. Now technically speaking this both a sale and a price reduction. Garmin has officially lowered the MAP price of Venu to $349 (from $399), and then there's $50 off sale atop that. Either way, this is in a much more price-appropriate ballpark for this watch. | ||
| Fitbit Versa 2 - $50 OFF! | Amazon | |||
 | Fitbit Products - Most $50 off! $149 | Amazon | I'm honestly too lazy to enter in the approx 27 different Fitbit SKU's that are on sale right now. So here's a link to all of them. Basically almost everything is about $50 off. Some things a bit more, some things a bit less, but in general - $50 off. | ||
| Garmin Vivoactive 3 - Normally $249 $129 | $116-$129 | Amazon | ⚡⚡⚡ This was as low as $99 over Black Friday weekend, which is absolutely crazy. However, even at sub-$150 it's still an incredible deal. | |

| GoPro Hero 8 Black w/32GB card, GoPro Shorty Stick, Extra Battery, Headstrap- $50 Off $399 | Amazon | ⚡⚡⚡ This is an amazeball deal. You've got not only the new Hero 8 at $50 off, but the GoPro Shorty Stick (my favorite accessory, Then you get an extra battery, and a headmount you won't ever use. Oh, and the 32GB card you might use before you buy a bigger card. | ||
| DJI OSMO Action (Action Cam) - Normally $329 $199 (launched at $349) | Amazon | ⚡ This is the lowest price we've seen on the DJI OSMO Action, and it's a very strong first contender from DJI to compete with the Hero 7 Black (realistically, except for the dual-screen, it simply doesn't compete with the Hero 8). I really like a lot of elements on the OSMO Action, but especially the dual-screen. Check out my full review for comparative thoughts. | ||
 | DJI Mavic 2 Mavic 2 Pro - 20% off $999 | $1,379 | Amazon | This is a very solid drone, and realistically the best DJI has in terms of sports-focused active tracking (Active Track 2.0). Check my full review for complete details on how well it does. | |
| Garmin Venu GPS Smartwatch - $100 off! $299 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ This is a very good deal - and the first time we've seen the Venu on sale. I've been using it for more than two months now, and it's largely pretty stable for me at this point and working well. It's Garmin's first go at a high-end AMOLED display. | ||
| Garmin Forerunner 35 - $60 Off $169 | $99 | Amazon | ||
| Garmin Edge 530 Cycling GPS - 11% off! $299 | $265 | Amazon | ⚡ ⚡ This is the first sale we've seen on this unit, which only came out this past spring. It's also an Amazon-specific sale and is highly unlikely to last long. This is one of the main units I use for my day to day riding and testing. | |
| Beats PowerBeats Pro Wireless Sport Headphones (Renewed) $249 | Amazon | ⚡ These are what I've been mostly using lately for workouts, primarily indoors. They're great, though, I'm not a huge fan of the charging case. The fact that they're $50 for getting a factory reconditioned seems like a solid deal to me. | ||
| Garmin Forerunner 945 - $100 Off $599/599EUR | $499 | Amazon | ⚡⚡ This is a super hot deal - first time we've seen the FR945 on sale. | |
| Kinetic R1 Smart Trainer with Motion (+ cassette included) - 20% off $949 | $759 | N/A | Note: Clever Training is now including an 11-speed cassette in the bundle as of Nov 22nd. | |
 | Apple Watch Series 4 - $100 off! $399/$499 (cellular) | $299 | Amazon | ⚡ This is a pretty darn strong deal. While the Series 4 doesn't have the always-on display of the Series 5, it has everything else, including a heck of a lot better battery performance/life. Note: Like the other Apple deals, this seems to come and go - so I'm leaving it here since it's like an every other day thing. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 645 and 645 Music - 45% off $399/$449 (with music) | Amazon | ⚡⚡ This is a great deal for this watch. Sure, it's nearly 2 years old - but it's gotten a ton of updates since it was launched, including Spotify and Amazon Music support. | ||
| Polar OH1 Plus Optical Sensor - $18 off $79 | $61 | Amazon | ⚡ This is one of my favorites, and I use it constantly for HR accuracy testing comparisons. | |
| 4iiii Fliiiight Smart Trainer with Viiiiva dual ANT+/BLE HR strap bundle - Normally $599 $599 | Amazon | |||
| Polar Vantage V GPS Multisport Watch - 30% off $499 | 316EUR | Amazon | N/A | ⚡ This is a reasonably good deal for the Vantage V, which has seen a number of updates over the last year (and more slated in December). |
| Apple Watch Series 3 (38mm) $169-$179 | $169 | Amazon | ⚡ This unit recently got reduced to $199, and now it's down to $169...though it seems to come and go on Amazon - so keep your eyes watching! | |
| Polar Vantage V GPS Multisport Watch - 30% off $499 | $349 | Amazon | ⚡ This is a reasonably good deal for the Vantage V, which has seen a number of updates over the last year (and more slated in December). | |
| GoPro Hero 8 Black w/32GB card, GoPro Shorty Stick, Extra Battery, Headstrap- $50 Off | $299 | Amazon | The Hero 8 is still a great camera, so if you don't need the extra bits of the newer Hero 9, this saves you a $100 in comparison. Plus, this includes an extra battery, shorty strick/tripod, head mount, and 32GB MicroSD Card (Disabled by martinv) | |
| Apple Watch Series 5 - $20 off $399/$499 (cellular) | Amazon | It's a note a huge deal, but I also don't think we're going to see any huge deals this season on the new Series 5. | ||
| Garmin RD Pod (Running Dynamics) - 17% off $69 | $57 | Amazon | Allows you to get not just Running Dynamics metrics, but also running power, on Garmin devices. | |
| Polar Vantage M GPS Multisport Watch - Normally $279 $279 | Amazon | ⚡⚡⚡ Woah - this is probably the deal of the year for wearable tech. This is a great little watch that includes full multisport mode (for triathletes), as well as things like full power meter support and more. Very very solid deal. | ||
| Tacx NEO 2 Smart - $200 off! $999 | $1049 | N/A | Competitive Cyclist | ⚡ This is a great deal, especially considering there's such little difference between the NEO 2 and the NEO 2T. |
 | Garmin Vivosport GPS Band - Normally $169 $169 | $119 | Amazon | If you want a band (as opposed to a watch-form factor), and if you want GPS - then frankly there's no better GPS sport option than this one. And hey - $50 off ain't too shabby! | |
 | GoPro Hero 7 Black with 32GB- $30 Off $329 | $299 | Amazon | ||
| CycleOps Hammer (Original) - $200 off $1,199USD | $599 | Amazon | This is a solid deal if you don't mind the slight racket that the original CycleOps Hammer makes. That said, with the H3 at $799 right now, if you can stretch it, having the H3's much lower noise profile for $200 more might be worth. If you're wearing headphones...nevermind. Note that basically there's virtually no feature differences between the H1/H2/H3 - just different colors of paint and on the H3, a different belt. They're already running near identical firmware. | |
 | Garmin Cadence Sensor Gen2 (Dual ANT+/Bluetooth) - $5 off | Amazon | Note: This is a random Amazon deal that will probably disappear. But, it's a great sensor for Zwift usage as it's not just dual ANT+/BLE, but dual-BLE atop that (so it can do two concurrent Bluetooth connections and unlimited ANT+ connections). | ||
 | Garmin HRM-RUN (with Running Dynamics) - $20 off $99 | $79 | Amazon | N/A | This is the odd (and unheard of) Amazon sale. This strap includes Running Dynamics, but is ANT+ only. Honestly, unless you really want Running Dynamics, I'd recommend getting the HRM-DUAL instead (it's dual ANT+/BLE). |
| Garmin Speed Sensor Gen2 (Dual ANT+/Bluetooth) - $5 off | $35 | Amazon | ⚡ This isn't a huge deal per se, but it is my favorite speed sensor for a commuter bike as it just quietly tracks all your mileage in the background and syncs it to your phone. Also, this falls in the bucket of 'random Amazon deals that will probably disappear'. | |
 | Anker PowerCore+ Mini USB Battery Pack | Amazon | I use this exact one often when I'm out for a long hike or trail run and want to have a battery backup that easily fits in my CamelBak. Also useful for attaching to action cams too. | ||
 | Fitbit Inspire - $10 Off $69 | $59 | Amazon | ||
| Amazon Echo Dot - 50% off! | Amazon | We've got a couple of these, both at home, and the office, and mostly just use it to play music for the kids. I don't have a specific need to pickup another one this year - but at | ||
| Garmin Vivofit Jr - 50% off $79 | $39 | Amazon | I believe this is the lowest price we've ever seen this for. | |

| Garmin Fenix 5 Plus (5/5S/5X) - $200 Off $699/699EUR | N/A | ⚡⚡⚡This is a strong deal on the Fenix 5 Plus series from Clever Training. This is for all models/variants. Obviously, the Fenix 6 came out two months ago, so don't expect major new feature updates on the Fenix 5 Plus - but still, it's a strong option. Add coupon code FENIX50 to save an additional $50 (bringing it down to $399 | ||

| Tacx NEO Bike Smart - $700 off (brand new but scratched units) $3,199 | $2,499 | N/A | N/A | ⚡⚡⚡ If you're in the market for one of these indoor bikes, this is a steal of a deal. Normally $3,199 - Garmin/Tacx are marking $700 off after a batch of them got sent (brand new) across the pond with some "cosmetic" scratches. You can see the pictures in the sale link, and honestly, I'd take that $700 for a couple of very minor scratches. Plus, they ship within a few days. |

 | SanDisk SD & MicroSD Cards - 50% off | 50% off | Amazon | Look, I have a storage problem. As in, I constantly buy SD & MicroSD cards. Mostly because I'm constantly sticking new MicroSD cards in new cameras/drones/etc to test. So when I see deals like this for 50% off - I jump. Generally speaking I use 128GB cards for action cameras, and a blend as 128GB & 256GB cards for my main DSLR/etc cameras. I almost exclusively use SanDisk cards, though you'll find a few other brands from time to time. | |
| Garmin Forerunner 735XT GPS Multisport Watch $349 | Amazon | ⚡ This is a fantastic deal right now. The price on Amazon is fluctuating a bit, but either way - by far the lowest we've seen.

I'll be picking up another with this sale, mostly to replace some much older Dropcam's (Nest before Nest was renamed). Nest Cam's really only go on sale about once per year. Update: I bought three more of them this year. | ||

| Panasonic LUMIX GH5 4K Digital Camera | Amazon | I've often rented this camera (or stole friends) over the last year or so, but I finally bit the bullet on a variant of this sale last week. These are now my main shooting cameras for video (they make great stills too, but I mainly got this for video). $700 off is an awesome deal. In my case I got the kit. And in case it's even more of an endorsement, both GPLAMA & DesFit also use this camera too! | ||
| Garmin Fenix 6X Pro $549-$1,149 | 666EUR | Amazon | A slight discount, but one nonetheless on this new unit, where it's still hard to find both in stock, but in stock with a discount. | |

| DJI OSMO Action (Action Cam) - Normally $329 $199 (launched at $349) | Amazon | ⚡ This is the lowest price we've seen on the DJI OSMO Action, and it's a very strong first contender from DJI to compete with the Hero 7 Black (realistically, except for the dual-screen, it simply doesn't compete with the Hero 8). I really like a lot of elements on the OSMO Action, but especially the dual-screen. Check out my full review for comparative thoughts. | ||

The standard video box lights are connected to regular wall outlets on the ceiling, but no switch connected to them, so this solved that for me. Geeky solution I suppose, but functional. | |

| Syrp Genie Mini | $199 ($50 off) | Amazon | n/A | I love these little things. They rotate around but are controllable via phone app. I use them for both rotating the camera, but also actually rotating platforms that I put objects on to get shots from all angles (you can see this in my Fitbit Ionic main video actually). I also use the companies Genie 1 (wish I could justify a Genie 2). | |
| Panasonic GH5 Mirrorless Camera | $500 off | Amazon | So I'm ***THIS CLOSE**** to finally pulling the trigger and getting this to serve as my main video camera.

| Suunto Watches (All Models) | 30% off | A very solid deal, especially for some of the lesser expensive options like the Spartan Trainer Wrist HR (down to $223 then!) | |||
| Garmin Edge 520 $229 | $50 off! (now $199) | Amazon | ⚡Woah, this is the lowest price we've seen on this unit, which is now sub-$200. Obviously this is driven by the new Edge 520 Plus that was announced a month ago (at $279). | |
| Garmin Edge 25 $169 | $50 off | Amazon | $50 off both base and bundle units. I suspect with the (far more functional) Edge 130 recently announced at $199, it makes the $169 Edge 25 a bit pricey looking. | ||
| Suunto Watches (All Models) | 30% off | A very solid deal, especially for some of the lesser expensive options like the Spartan Trainer Wrist HR (down to $223 then!) | |||
| Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR $279 ($329 for metal bezels) | 20% off ($223USD) | Amazon | ***This is a FANTASTIC deal on this unit. It was already my favorite for a budget tri watch (that still has all almost the features of a higher end Suunto watch), and now being $223 is awesome. Solid option, and interesting the one I actually use as a reference in many running/swimming tests. Also, the metal band ones are included, and go from $329 to $263. | |

| GoPro Hero 5 Black + 32GB SD Card $199 | $249 | Amazon | |||
| Garmin Forerunner 735XT $349 | Amazon | This is a pretty annual sale on multisport watches. I don't see it as a sign of a FR735XT replacement, as I think Garmin may be struggling on how to differentiate such a watch in the future since it's main difference was lack of baro altimeter, but that's standard on even the cheapest wearables these days. | ||
| Garmin Forerunner 935 $499 | Amazon | This is a pretty annual sale on multisport watches, but is actually the first time the FR935 has officially been on sale in the US (ever). I don't see it as a sign of a FR935 replacement, since they typically operate on 2-3 year cycles and it's only been a year. | ||
| Garmin Varia Radar (both base and bundle) $199 | $50 off either one | Amazon | This puts the base radar unit at $149, and the bundle at $249 | ||

| *Garmin Varia UT800 Lights | $30 off | Amazon | I actually like this deal, mostly because I actually like these lights. Slim but powerful, and still controlled by your Garmin automatically (though, you don't have to have them controlled by it). | |
| Garmin Forerunner 35 - Permanent Price Drop $169 | Now $169 | Amazon | Was previously $199, now $169. Seems mostly fair. | |
| Fitbit Alta $99 | $30 off | Amazon | ||
| Garmin FR235 - Permanent Price Drop $249 | Now $249 | Amazon | Was $329...which was horribly overpriced against the Vivoactive series. Still, while this is a 'OK price' for this running-specific unit, I feel like it's a bit old now, especially since the Vivoactive 3 is the same price and has contactless/NFC pavements and boatloads of other sports. | |

| Garmin Vivoactive 3 $129 | $50 off | Amazon | ⚡ Awesome deal $50 off the base unit (thus $249), or $50 off the Slate unit (thus $279). The slate has an extra resistant coating on the band which his why it costs more. This is a superb deal for a unit that came out a mere 2 months ago. | |

Suunto Ambit3 Series: Suunto virtually always puts the previous edition of their Ambit lineup on sale at Black Friday each year. This year is no exception. With the Spartan series being the new variant, the Ambit3 becomes the old variant, thus the sale variant. The Ambit3 Sport at sub-$200 is very solid for that particular device. For the Ambit3 Peak (which nets you barometric altimeter access), it’s a good deal, but not a great deal in light of the FR920XT being at $199 above.

Thanks for reading and supporting the site! And remember to keep checking back regularly. I’ll be posting updates to Twitter, so that’s probably the best place to follow for new updates.
One of the sellers on Amazon is Clever Training. Does this mean that buying through Amazon supports the site twice as much?
It’s all about doubling down!
Nah, only singular support for me that way. Though, it does help Clever Training in the general sense of having more volume (which in turn could help them with prioritization down the road in new product releases). It’s all handled as with any other Amazon Prime purchase, so to you, no diff.
Whats the difference between the 920xt US and EU versions. Been looking to get one for a while but the deals aren’t half as good in the EU. What would I loose out on if I went with the US version? Thanks
Nothing. No difference other than markings on the box.
Thanks!
I just saw something on Facebook that the kickr snap is $100 off does that change anything with your recommendations
It’s marketed as a $100 off sale, but it actually reflects a permanent price adjustment to bring it in line with the competition.
Correct, just a permanent price adjustment.
Since you don’t live on this side of the pond any more:
Thanksgiving Day is the 24th, which makes Black Friday the 25th.
Sorry, brain farted dates mixing up Cyber Monday/BF.
Will Garmin Connect (easily) merge steps/HR from a wrist unit with an Edge cycling computer into one profile? If so, that would make the Vivosmart and Vivoactive better deals. Last I checked, this was still a PITA?
It’s still a PITA. The current plan is for multi-device merge/sync/etc to be released prior to the end of the year.
Garmin appeared to roll out multi device support yesterday looking at the update to the iOS Connect Mobile app I received yesterday!
Do you know if Clever Training will have comparable deals in Europe?
They’re working on deals for the Black Friday time period. This specific deal this week isn’t offered there.
Thank you! I can’t wait!
Going through the feature chart for the 920xt and Fenix3 and I don’t see that much of a difference. Fenix3 has somewhat better battery life, and you can charge it while in use.
So yes, looking at the Fenix3 pricing this is a rediculous good deal!
I noticed link to privatesportshop.fr will have a Garmin sales starting the second of november (they advertise 45% off) That should take care of us european folks 🙂
Hi Ray
The deal for e.g. the Garmin FR920XT is only available on Clever Training US and NOT Europe.
Is this normal since living in Belgium I would have to pay customs etc. Do you know if Clever Training Europe will also present similar discounts?
The link to Amazon informs you that the Garmin FR920XT is currently unavailable!?
Thanks for answering.
Krgds
Edwin
Correct, it’s normal for US and Europe to have separate deals – since unfortunately Garmin forces retailers into doing it that way.
With Clever Training Europe, you wouldn’t have any customs payment upon arrival, since VAT is included in the purchase price and is handled intra-EU.
For the Amazon links, depending on which country you’re in, it may be forcing you to a local Amazon page (vs Amazon US). Most of the times the links workout when it does that, but sometimes it fails. 🙁
That said, if you are on Amazon US and it’s showing unavailable, it’s likely because it’s sold out due to the sale. My understanding is Clever Training placed another huge order of 920XT yesterday, which are being overnight-ed today. While they expected high demand, not quite this of of demand. No worries, it should be good again tomorrow (and CT lists via Amazon as well).
For Canadians, Amazon.ca has now put the 920 on sale as well ($260 without the HRM).
Is this all you expect from Garmin this year? They always slash prices in the Oct/Nov time period each year (usually you can get an even bigger discount through REI). I was hoping the Edge 520 would be included with the introduction of the Edge 820.
ok so i need something which will show me on screen in real time while riding normalized power and avg.normalized power next to other regular things. i still have 310xt and its just fine. i was thinking of getting edge 500 just cause of that reason but my question is what do u suggest? and even if i decide to go with 920xt should i still wait with spending money untill next spring cause ill spin next few months indoor only and for that i use trainer road. do u think it will be possible to get it for 200 on spring? thanks 🙂
Wait, the 920xt is still 350 on Amazon. Where is the 199 deal?
I think Clever Training (who was selling for $199) sold out, and therefore is not listed on Amazon right now. If you look at all the sellers, one is (as of writing this) selling new for $219. My guess is that once more come in stock, the price will drop back down to $199, or you can buy on Clever Training for $199 and they will ship once it comes back in stock.
Thanks Kyle. I just saw it on Amazon for 249 w/the HR bundle which is totally worth it.
Kyle is correct. Others are also able to sell through Amazon (including Amazon themselves) at that price, but those also sold out within a few hour instantly.
CT’s inventory should arrive tomorrow, which will also be exposed via Amazon. I’m not sure if that means inventory will be updated later tonight to show the arrival/shipping tomorrow, or tomorrow (on Amazon).
no fenix 3 optical sale? makes the 920xt that much more fun
Thanks for the heads-up, been waiting for the next wave of sales to pull the trigger… $260 in Canada, which is a bit better than the exchange rate for a change!… Time to retire the trusty old 310xt! 🙂
Been having this same debate myself. Definitely want to upgrade the 310XT, and want a Fenix but the price is almost double the 920XT (and exchange is actually on our side with this sale :p)
920xt white and red + hrm on amazon germany for 189,80 euro.
Hello
Please mail the link because Amazon.de is only showing € 331,32 as best price.
Thanks.
Edwin
Sold out I guess
Looks like it’s still there:
link to amazon.de
Sorry, I have just seen further comments below…
Fenix 3 HR on amazon germany 248,80 euro (ray-affiliate link I think) link to amazon.de
Damn I am sitting here in the UK waiting for those deals to materialise 🙂
Still not sure about the accuracy of that sensor though. Especially comared to my Mio which performs flawless
Just order in Germany, have them ship to mailboxde.com and forward them to the UK (did the same because they only ship to Germany, not Belgium)
Only one left though.
Hm, they actually seem to ship to the U.K. (At least there was no error message). It’s a new seller on amazon but since amazon has pretty good customer service I don’t expect any problems or I’ll just get my money back.
Thanks for the tip. Wasn’t in the market for a new watch but this deal is too good considering that I bought all my past watches used for over 200€ when they were ok the market for a long time and a potential Felix 4 will run 400+++€\£.
Oh and finally I got to support ray with this purchase 🙂
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I’m pretty confident that sale price is scam.
Similar deals been popping up on amazon.co.uk for over a month and only last for a day or so before they disappear (presumably taken down). Each time from a different seller but with the same dodgy info “contact us before purchasing etc etc”.
The one that’s on amazon.de currently has a review saying it’s a scam.
Yea, my order my cancelled tonight by the seller. It did sound too good to be true but on Amazon it’s not a big risk since they have good customer service.
Ditto, my to good to be true order on Amazon Germany was also cancelled.
Waiting for the EU-deals 🙂
Ray, do you expect price movement on the 735XT around Black Friday? I have a 910XT and want to upgrade, but can’t decide whether to take 920XT deal or wait for a price drop on the 735XT. Thanks for all of the great information!
I do not.
Thanks. (And thanks again for all of the great content on your site and on the podcast!)
Thanks for the great reviews of the FR920XT and FR230! What are the differences between the two? They seem similar in functionality. I just got the FR230 and use it for running and biking, but now this deal on the FR920XT is giving me buyer’s remorse. Is it just differences in design and target marketing (FR seems more runner centric)? This is my first GPS watch, so I’m still figuring out how it fits into my training. Your insight is much appreciated!
Hi,
I was looking at getting the Garmin 235 for running. Would you recommend the Garmin FR920XT for $199 over the 235?
Thanks in advance!
It just depends on whether you want an optical HR sensor, or whether you want more multisport functionality.
Optical sensor HR – it’s trash. It does not work properly.
Hey,
I’m looking to buy the FR 230/FR 235 for running purposes and am based in Europe. Do you anticipate these items will be subject to heavy reductions in the BF and Cyber Monday sales?
They haven’t been heavily reduced online on recent months.
Thanks
Hard to say, though being a year old puts them in the prime camp for typical Black Friday sales. Whether or not those also come to Europe is a secondary piece.
Sounds reasonable. Thanks for your response. Love the website. Keep up the good work!!
the 920xt offer is now gone?
At present, yes.
its just gone back up
Yup! Check out this page for all the huge deals: link to dcrainmaker.com
I’ve gotta convert them onto this post as well (running a bit behind today).
Any thoughts on the chance of the Edge 520 going on sale anytime soon?
I don’t expect that to happen.
Vivoactive HR has now even with a better discount (199$ or 20% discount) at both Amazon and Clevertraining. So you should consider moving them back to Active deals from Expired.
Hi Ray, how likely do you see the 2017 versions of the Tacx Neo or Wahoo Kickr going on sale in Europe around Black Friday? I see the Neo currently for around €1100, but I’d kick myself if it was several hundread Euros cheaper in a few weeks.
Cheers!
I don’t know yet, but I’d think 1100EUR is a pretty safe/good price. I can’t imagine it being much cheaper, if it goes on sale.
really like the forthcoming discount on the Vivoactive HR, but sadly this product isn’t even on the CT Europe site and I’d get clobbered with VAT + Import Duty + handling fee if buying from the USA CT site.
I know this may be hard to predict but what’s the lowest UK price you’d expect for the 230? £155 and £185 for watch only and with HR strap respectively is what I’ve seen. Could it get lower or is that already pretty low?
Wahoo TICKR / TICKR X and Speed Cadence sensors are on sale now @ Amazon, but not @ TC:
Wahoo RPM Speed and Cadence Sensor – 55$ instead of 70$
Wahoo TICKR X – 80$ instead of 100$
So looking over the smart trainer recommendations I keep bumping up against a question, and I hope someone could help me out here. I have a Stages power meter, and want to get a trainer that can be controlled by apps, but don’t really need them to transmit power in theory since I already have that meter. What would be the most cost effective trainer to go with just for smart control, but not worrying about the power side since I already have that covered?
I use a Quarq PM in conjunction with both a Wahoo Kickr and a Tacx Vortex Smart. Generally, you are correct IF the app you are using is controlling the trainer with respect to grade or a generated course. Probably the most popular example is Zwift where you can pair both your Stages for power and the trainer for resistance changes associated with the “course”. All is well for me in this scenario and both my trainers are great even though the Kickr reported power is much closer to my Quarq data than is the Tacx, which requires much more calibration fiddling.
However, if you are wanting to do structured workouts such as intervals with specified power levels, the power the trainer thinks is being produced is still important. Virtually all workout apps (including Zwift’s workout mode) will NOT control the trainer based upon a separately paired PM. Generally, they just tell the trainer “set xxx watts” and the trainer sets resistance to what IT thinks is xxx watts, not what your Stages is reporting. TrainerRoad is the only workout app I’m aware of that has an option to control the trainer based upon a separate power meter, and even so, I’ve seen many forum threads reporting issues with its “Power Match” function.
Just my experience and two cents…
Target in-store and online has the Vivoactive HR for $169.99. There’s a discount code valid today only “TECH” that takes off 10% bringing it to $153. 5% Red card discount stacks on top as well. Better than Black Friday price!
Leo – Thanks!
Rays,
Sorry, I would have used one of your links, but the Target deal (32% + another 10% off) was too good to pass up. I still have a new cycling computer + probably the Garmin Virb 30 Ultra to give you some affiliate love.
Keep up the great site
Ray, As always sincere thanks for fantastic information. Are flash sales included in the marketing/sale price limitations? I benefitted from an Amazon flash sale on the 910xt years past at significantly less than the otherwise discounted BF price. Is there no possibility of this type of limited quantity opportunity this season for the 920xt?
Individual retailers can work with Garmin for an approved sale, and sometimes we do see flash sales from Amazon on things. Typically speaking it’s not super new stuff or super high-end stuff. Vivo things are the most common.
Any thoughts on power2max’s BF sale?

Hesitant to jump on a type S with the NG so close to arrival
To clarify, I’m not interested in getting myself an NG, but rather I’m interested on how it will affect the pricing and availability of the type S.
One would think they will only get more aggressive in trying to move their “old” product.
It’s not a bad deal. The language is confusing at the bottom though – is it valid or not valid on the NG? :-/
Sorry- I am sure you will get this question lots!
Any view on what may be available in the UK ? I have promised my 7 yr old a GPS watch when she hits 50 parkruns, and she’s getting close! My 10yr old has a tomtom runner, but if I can get the Spark for a decent price then I’ll go for that.
Apparently, the TomTom Spark Deal is no longer available on Clever Training
Ray- did you ever get clarification on the BestBuy ad for the Fenix3HR at $399 vs $449?
Is it a typo, or will Garmin let CleverT match it?
And on a separate note- at one time Garmin seemed to release a *silver* version of the F3HR. Where the heck are they? I like the stainless colored bezel.
big fan. 🙂
Yup, just added in updates there (and other updates, more coming shortly).
In short, it was a Best Buy ad typo. Clever Training will indeed honor that price as long as Best Buy is still showing inventory on their site. Once Best Buy pulls inventory, then CT will go back to the intended sale price at $449.
If I remember correctly on colors, there was a nuance where the Silver F3HR was in Europe, and the plain black in US. Or the inverse. One of those two.
FYI: The VA HR @ $169.99 is already live on amazon and target
Cheers.
There is a sale of the Recon Jet:
link to store.reconinstruments.com
Of course given they are now part of the imploding as we speak wearables division of Intel, chances are high you’re going to get a full MSRP refund within 6 months.
I just want to give Clever Training a huge shout-out for treating customers the right way. Now a happy PowerTap P1 customer.
Does the Fenix 3 HR $399 deal start at midnight tonight?
Yes, though, they may wait to validate Best Buy’s listing goes live at $399. If so (on US EST), then at midnight – so in about 5hrs and 29 minutes. Roughly.
They have staff up all night watching things over.
Thanks Ray, purchased it at Clever Training. Also it doesn’t look like Best Buy has listed the watch at $399 yet.
Target is $119 on the Vivosmart HR+
Currently looking for a good bike trainer. Have you seen any that are discounted for holiday sales/Black Friday?
CycleOps has all their stuff 20% off, except the new Magnus and Hammer. See the links up above.
Unfortunately, you missed the 20% off all trainers deal by Clever Training that ended last weekend. 🙁
Oh, man!
I really hope that CT Europe will have some deals on Friday for us in Europe, because I’m really getting jealous going through your list…
Thanks, Ray for info on all the deals!
Goran
I just got the final list, and will have them added to above listing by mid-morning European time. The deals will run Nov 25th (Fri) to 28th (Monday). I’ll update here in the comments once I get it done.
They include on the FR230/630/630 bundle, Edge 820, Varia Vision, Varia Radar, and Scosche. They will also be stackable with the DCR coupon codes.
Cheers!
Thanks, Ray!
Goran
FYI for everyone waiting for the Fenix 3 HR at $399, it is now listed at that price on Clever Training.
The link above for Fenix3HR is linking to Fenix3… and I cannot find the F3HR in Clever Training… did I miss out sth stupidly?…
On the Fenix3 page, there’s a drop-down on the right side, which lists all the 98 versions of Fenix3 units. Within that list is the Fenix3 HR, the optical one.
Still seeing it as $450 on clever training at 6 am central time. Amazon and best buy still showing it as $399. I’d like to support everyone here, so hoping it gets adjusted…
Best buy has the Fenix3HR curently for $399.00. I just ordered mine. Thanks DC for all you reviews.
No problem. Clever Training should have it back to $399 pretty shortly here.
Any heads up on a gopro hero 5 deal for Europe? Clever training don’t stock them over here.
No, you won’t likely find any Hero5 deals. At least not in the US. You’ll see some Hero4 deals out there. On the European side, you might see deals (not at CT though) because retailers can set their own GoPro prices, which they can’t do in the US.
Withings seems to have dropped the price on scales/activity trackers here in Canada (Bestbuy).
Body scale $99 (-$50)
Go tracker $60 (-$30)
When did the Fenix 3 HR go on sale for $399 at CT? I have been checking that page all night and it has been $449 for the Sapphire Gray with Optical HR since 9pm Pacific. This was both before and after it went on sale for $399 at Best Buy.
Doesn’t matter the browser or machine I use, all of them show $449. Sucks as I’d rather spend my money at CT and support both a DC Rainmaker sponsor and DCR himself / itself.
It was on sale starting at midnight (ET) for about 30 minutes,and then went back to $449 as Best Buy hadn’t matched yet (some folks already got the deal at $399 as noted in the comments). You should see it back to $399 shortly, since Best Buy is now back to $399.
Thanks for the update, Ray. I obviously missed that little window, but I’ll keep checking.
You’re definitely doing yeomans work here following all of the deals and what is and isn’t happening. We should definitely start paying you more. 🙂
I bought a best buy “insurance” fenix 3 and will take back if Clever Training will follow suit….
Ordered the vivoactive hr for my wife via CT though….
Hey folks!
The Fenix3 HR at Clever Training is back at $399 now: link to clevertraining.com
Simply use the drop-down on the right side, and then choose the optical HR version.
Thanks for the support!
Ordered at 6:50 am central time. Thanks!!
Ordered just as you were putting up your post. Woo hoo!!
Let’s see if the European deals can keep up with the US…
Thanks, Ray for updating this page with European deals.
I’m really disappointed with CT, FR630 is on sale at 13% savings and compared to US deals (43%), this is a joke.
I’d rather risk waiting for possible sales with my domestic retailers, which if they even happen will certainly be 20%.
Goran
It’s actually at ~23%, because as the note above the table notes – you can stack the 10% discount on top of it. So you save another 10%.
As for differences between US and Euro deals, unfortunately, that’s just the reality of MAP policies. Within the US, Garmin and others subsidize these sales. Outside of the US, that generally doesn’t happen. So it’s the retailers taking impact of the cost.
On the flip-side, in the US, retailers can’t generally make sales up as they see fit, which they can do in Europe. So Europeans tend to get better prices year-round on items that US folks don’t get.
You’re right, it’s 23%.
Bur I don’t get it: if I order FR230 from CT with DCR10% and free shipping it’s just 17£ less than full price with my domestic retailer.
So i think I’ll skip CT’s Black Friday deals and hope for the best around the holidays
Goran
The $399 Fenix 3 HR deal is live on bestbuy.com right now.
It’s also available on Amazon (I just ordered mine there)!
I ordered the Fenix3HR from CleverTr- and paid $449 for it, and sent them a note. Even 14 hours later, Best Buy still has them in stock at $399 as does Amazon. Haven’t heard back from CT yet (although it’s still a holiday), so I’m assuming that they’ll credit the difference…. because Ray said they would.
Even at $399, isn’t better to go for the performance bundle that comes with the hr strap for more reliable data?
Am I missing something?
Thanks
With that bundle you don’t get the optical sensor, so you don’t get 24×7 HR. If that doesn’t matter though to you, then yup, it’s better.
Assuming you want the features of the hrm run strap and don’t already own one and want a new one, yes.
Hey Ray, Happy Thanksgiving, C,a va bien?
I was not clear enough, I meant the HR bundle at $487, vs $399, since the straps sort of are round $100 alone?
Related question: Can the swim (blue strap) be used for running with good results? I am wondering since I’ve seen bundles of the Tri strap and swim also the red and blue straps together.
I wish the Clever Training $399 was alive on Amazon since I have a birthday certificate, ha!
Thanks and Cheerio!
Ahh, gotchya.
No, the totally blue pool strap is miserable for running. However, the tri strap (which is a blue pod), is great. I often use it. The red-pod, which is the HRM-RUN, is identical, just…some different internals inside the pod (lacks storage of blue pod).
Ray, thanks that is great info. I will then go for the Tri-HRM as I do run, and cycle a lot, but also swim, albeit a lot less frequently.
I read that the Garmin – HRM-Swim is made for resisting pool chemicals but the tri is not. The tri is for open water – no chlorine.
You have news if there any deals on the trainers coming out tomorrow? Tacx? Wahoo?
I wouldn’t expect anything.
Thanks!
Amazon U.K. Have just removed the start times for both the fr230 and fr630 probably too many watchers lol
What was the start time? There isn’t a deal showing anymore.
Right now Clever Training is planning on starting the Garmin deals at 5:00AM UK time. Though, I’m working to get that closer to midnight UK time.
Also note, they are listed under European deals: link to dcrainmaker.com
Further, remember that you get another 10% off that price with the DCR Coupon code DCR10BTF
07:10 fr230 and 18:20 ft630. Phone alerted me they had been withdrawn
I’ve confirmed Clever Training UK will now list these deals at midnight UK time. I’ll circle back once live.
Thanks both. So either Amazon UK have decided they can’t beat what’s already out there or will be an all day thing/ another day lightening deal.
I’ll have a look at Clever Training when their deals go up.
Heads up that Target in the US has GoPro Hero 5 Black at 399 with a $60 gift card while supplies last (BF deal started at 6pm EST). I went ahead and got it thinking that may be the best price we will see for the holidays given GoPro is not likely to allow price reductions.
Just as a heads up to European folks:
Clever Training UK has now lit up all of the CT UK Garmin deals. Again, remember to add the DCR Coupon Code for another 10% savings (it’s DCR10BTF).
Also, I just added in a crapton of Amazon Europe deals. I’ll continue working my way to the rest of the Amazon country sites, though they tend to mirror each other. All of which have been added to the European section above: link to dcrainmaker.com
As quite a few have referenced the Garmin 735XT. Not to take any business away but Slane Cycles in UK has a good offer on Garmin 735XT https://www.slanecycles.com. Just purchased run bundle for 275GBP. With code SUBSCRIBE5 you get an additional 5GBP off. International delivery is free of charge.
How did you get £275? Its now £329.99.
Edge 520 bundle has a good deal too: £249.99
David – strange ….
I see still right now the following pricing (note that it is pounds sterling not USD):
Garmin Forerunner 735XTGarmin Forerunner 735XT
£262.49 (reduced from £299.99)
Garmin Forerunner 735XT Triathlon Bundle
£324.99 (reduced from £374.99)
Garmin Forerunner 735XT Run Bundle
£274.99 (reduced from £324.99)
Is it possible you look at cached information? Initially it also showed to me the full amount. When added to the shopping cart it got reduced.
By the way I am not affiliated whatsoever to this shop (live in Asia) so have no clue on their offerings or how it works ….
Maybe it depends on country. When UK is chosen:
Garmin Forerunner 735XT Run Bundle
£329.99 (reduced from £389.99)
However if Singapore is chosen:
Garmin Forerunner 735XT Run Bundle
£274.99 (reduced from £324.99)
Wahoo has the original Kickr refurb model for $649. Do you feel the new model is worth spending double that amount? I also considered the Snap version as I’m trying to stay within a budget. Which one would you buy right now?
Thanks!
How did you get £275? Its now £329.99.
Edge 520 bundle has a good deal too: £249.99
Sorry wrong post!
it’s 799€ in Europe for the refurb model, that is a cheek, $190 more than in America!
If it cost just over 600€ here, I would buy it, but I guess I will wait for the Tacx flux instead.
RE: KICKR Refurb
I’d say that’s a fantastic deal. I have no issues purchasing refurb stuff, since it’s literally like new again. And that’s a great price, vs either the old or new KICKR.
How about european clever training (or other sites in Europe) discount on power meters like the powertap p1 or garmin vector 2(or the bepros, quarq dzero, powertap c1)?
The only one i´ve found is 10% on powermeter24.com
CT has it for 10% off as well using the DCR Coupon Code.
Absolutely but that’s not Black Friday specific. Great anyway though
Hi Ray,
For the european deals, I think prices are mixed up for some products between regular price/saving/new price (ex garmin vivoactive, polar M400….).
Thanks, fixing!
Which is the better deal from the below?
Fenix 3 £234 (€275)
Fenix 3 HRM £290
735xt HRM £275
920xt normal/HRM £160/£201 ($199/$249)
It will be used for running on roads (lots of tall buildings) and trail. The Suunto Ambit 3 Sport has some really good deals, £155 with HRM, but the lack of being able to create interval workouts is a problem.
In Europe Runner Inn / Bike Inn has 15% blackfriday deal on almost everything.
735xt is for 313€
Got the Tri bundle for 415€
Thanks Ray for updating the post with the European deals.
I was waiting for the discount you had announced for Scosche Rhythm+ at Clever Training Europe (£49) but I see it continues at its regular price (£59).
Hmm, odd. I’ll get someone on it. No worries it’ll get fixed shortly!
Thanks for your help.
Also waiting on the Scosche price update.
Also you claim ‘free delivery on all items’ but on clever training it states minimum amount of 75€ before you’re eligible for free delivery. One Scosche will be slightly below that, will there still be free shipping to European countries?
As always, thanks for keeping us updated on the sales, much appreciated!
Oops, good point, forgot that it’d slide below that. I don’t believe it’ll be free shipping on that item then*. I’ll fix the wording.
*Of course, you could buy something else to push it over.
Now that I’ve been using the Scosche for a few months (having previously worn a Wahoo chest strap), I don’t know that I’ve even care about the price point of the Scosche — it’s that much more comfortable/pleasant to wear! The charging is a bit of a bummer, but I’m used to plugging everything in anyway (eTap batteries, lights, garmin, Di2….), so one more device isn’t going to matter.
Really, try a Scosche and you’ll probably love it. For me, the DCR review was the final convincing I needed to ditch the chest strap.
Hi Ray, I’m also waiting for the price update as this is on top of my “must-have” list 😉
thx
Just a quick update – they’re working on it and trying to figure out why it’s not showing correctly. I’ll update as soon as it is. Sorry!
Ok folks – the Scosche pricing issue on Clever Training UK has been fixed. The person responsible for fixing it received a lollipop as a reward.
Thanks for the support!
Ordered. Thanks again for your help Ray.
Well nice job, but seems they are already “out of stock”
A bit of a let down, first I wait for the correct price, but once corrected it’s gone within minutes? Thanks for contacting them though. Seems like I won’t be able to get one after all.
Out of stock !!!
It makes me wanna cry…
Looks like someone will have to give his lollipop back… oh wait!
Fixed again! Lollipop given back.
Ordered! May he enjoy his lollipop as I will enjoy my new gadget!
Thx Ray!
In Denmark there is a really good offer for the Garmin 735xt
link to joyrun.dk
link to intersport.dk
The price is 201 euro /171 pounds!
And the Fenix 3 HR Silver at 2200DKK ~296€ / 323$
link to intersport.dk
That is the non-saphire version
Pusure.dk then have very god discounts on the HRM-Swim and TRI
link to pulsure.dk
Seems the Danish stores don’t ship internationally, pity because those prices are really good.
Morten – your chance for setting up a side business. I would have bought an extra one for that price. But I cannot even create a login account and as P pointed out, no international shipping.
Great find though for the Danish amongst us!
Correct me if I’m wrong, but all F3 HR has Safire, don’t they???
No the silver is not – it is newer than the claim that the all were… You can fint it in the comments section of in depth review
I bought the fenix 3 hr for myself from intersport and the swim belt from pulsure.dk
Time to upgrade from my almost 5 year old 910 XT 🙂 I was torn between the FR735 and fenix since i’ll mainly use it for swimming and cycling (and as my daily activity tracker, replacing and old vivofit.
The postage of sending things from denmark to just the rest of EU is expensive if you want a tracked and insured packet. <1KG will cost 200DKK ~27 EUR as i found out when i sold a "Bragi The Dash" BT headset to UK last week.
Intersport still list 728 fenix 3 hr in stock and 337 fr 735 – prices valid until sunday, Does not seem to be a limit on order – for fun added 100 of each to the basket
Pris i alt (inkl. moms) 36999000 DKK ~50000 Euro 😉 Migh be a buisness opportunety on ebay but …
Pulsure.dk has the edge 520 bundle at 1599 DKK ~215€ with postage of 175,- DKK ~23.5€ to many europeans countries(free in DK) – Also a solid deal.
Yes … I don’t understand why. It is sooooo sad 🙁
You list the varia vision as £109 down from £159. I think something has gone wrong as when I click on the link it shows £23well.
Sorry, my predictive text thought that when I typed the 9 at the end of £239 I actually meant to type “well” and I hit publish before seeing it.
And I obviously meant “varia radar” not “varia vision”. That one was all me
Yup, it’s the Varia Radar, and only the base package.
I am trying to buy the Varia Tail light but I just can’t add it to the basket 🙁 With the bundle it works fine, so it might be out of stock already? I sent an email to CT still waiting for a response.
Ok, Varia issue should be fixed now. Sorry about that!
Scosche issue still being worked out. Thus far, three people have been fired over it. Don’t worry, they were probably gonna be fired anyway.
Scicon bags are 50% off.
link to us.sciconbags.com
On the GoPro4 on amazon.es: it’s only on the Spanish version. What does that mean? How does it differ from the German or English version? Is it the interface’s language? I’d think this would be changeable in the system settings?
Many thanks! I’ve never owned a GoPro so would love to know if I wouldn’t end up with a GoPro that only “speaks” Spanish.
No impact, the menu allows you to change it as you see fit. 🙂
There’s also a BKOOL deal for the week-end –
– Bkool Go + 1 year Premium Subscription for only 329€: link to goo.gl
– Bkool Pro + 1 year Premium Subscription for only 449€: link to goo.gl

@Ray: considering the price, do you think that’s a good deal compared to other Black Friday deals for trainers. I’d be happy to go for a Kickr snap, but is that worth the price difference? (I have a Edge 520 so can broadcast with FE-C)
Those are indeed good prices. The advantage of the KICKR SNAP though is that for iOS based apps, everyone supports the KICKR SNAP via Bluetooth. Whereas people pretty much only support the Bkool trainers via FE-C (not available on iOS). So for example, Zwift on the iPad is KICKR only
Hi everyone
Great job Ray, Thanksgiving went well.
Any word on TrainingPeaks discount code?
Nothing that I’ve seen yet, but I think they’ve done something every year.
I just got an email from them reading:
Cyber Monday Only: Save 25% on TrainingPeaks Premium and WKO4. You will need to go on their website on Monday and I guess the discount will be applied then?
Great & thanks
Cyber Monday only:
TrainingPeaks 25% off code – cyberpremium
WK04 software 25% off code – cyberwko4
I think the Canadian deal on the VAHR is better than the US one on Amazon… its 40% off (199 down from 330).
Looks like Power2max has also discounted all their powermeters – € 100,- for the most models, up to € 320 for the pricy ones with crank (like from 1595,- to 1275,- ).
Could find no mention if this was a “black Friday” deal, and how long it will last.
Bertram
But they don’t continue with the power2max NG for 1 euro(299 later)?
Joel
Regarding EU Amazon deals – planning to buy FR 235 and Amazon Italy deal looks great. Am I safe to order it to another country (I’m not from Italy) or should I rather get it from a local seller? I guess warranty isn’t worldwide, any other differences?
No issues, it’s global warranty.
I had the same problem.
I wish I saw Ray’s reply earlier….
Goran
The link for the WAHOO RPM+SPEED BUNDLE (DUAL ANT+/BLE) is incorrect. The second “0” has been omitted.
Got an email from Training Peaks this morning saying that you can get 25% off Premium upgrades and WKO4 software. Cyber Monday only.
Amazon Germany are selling the Fenix 3HR for €318.99
920XT or VAHR? Better training tool vs sleep tracker? The price is so close!
If you like training more: Garmin
If you like sleeping more: the other one.
That was my poor attempt of a joke as I did not know what VAHR stood for until I checked it just now. I’d go with the latter.
I’ve keep going back and forth. It’s the multisport mode and battery life that has me swaying 920XT. Do people even find the sleep mode on these watches useful? Or just gimmick-y?
It’s interesting for trending sleep durations, but I wouldn’t overthink the actual data during the night.
I don’t use the sleep tracking data much, it’s interesting but really doesn’t tell you anything new.
VAHR has optical HR. If that’s really important I would go with that. 24/7 heart rate can be interesting (elevated the day before I get sick for example).
If you often do things where you need longer battery (over 11-12h) life then I would go with 920xt. If you often do triathlons then go with 920xt.
Hi guys before pulling a trigger on the fenix 3 HR, anyone think that the price will go lower than $399?
Zero chance. The $399 was already a mistake, it was supposed to be $449. Even if a new model happens in Q1 per historicals, I wouldn’t see the F3HR going below $399 till next summer at earliest. Essentially following similar pricing patterns as 920XT.
Fenix 3 HR silver for around $315 at link to loparshop.se
Swedish version of a Danish online store.
Amazon.de also had a Lightning Deal at 318€… not anymore but they still have it at 369€
Re European deals
I checked the Spanish Amazon page for Fenix 3 HR, but the price was already much higher than in the table above. Thanks for God I made a glance on both amazon.co.uk and amazon.de, and I could buy a Fenix 3 HR for EUR319 on the latter. With free shipping within EU. It was just a brief time slot, afterwards the price jumped up to EUR369
So it seems that even if fairly rarely but one can find a better European Black Friday deal than a US one.
Sorry I meant that I checked amazon.es for Fenix 3 (without optical HR), but the price was like 369, and I could buy a Fenix 3 with optical HR indeed for EUR 319 on amazon.de.
Yeah, there’s often some really good Black Friday deals on Amazon’s Euro sites for a handful of hours at a time.
Tomtom Runner 69.99 clever training
Add another 920XT sale for Ray (via Amazon.ca)! REALLY want a Fenix3 but with exchange its $499 Cad for the base model (unfortunately not riding that much anymore) that’s a bit outside my weekend warrior budget. The 920XT with Scosche Rhythm+ (which will be purchased once the calendar turns and called #birthdaygift) comes to $325 Cad total (+ 13% tax #thanksfreehealthcare).
Nice find – just added that in!
Thanks Ray! Finally went ahead and picked up the Scosche Rhythm+. The folks at Clever Training were exceptionally gracious.
Thanks for the support Melanie!
Do I understand correctly that the last day when I can buy a Garmin FR920XT Triathlon Bundle discounted price of $349, it’s December 24th?
Yup, that’s correct. Definitely a bit odd – but I triple-checked it.
I think the logic is that rather than doing on again, off again, sales like Garmin has done the last few years (i.e. on for a week prior to Black Friday, then on again for Black Friday to Cyber Monday, then on again from Dec 10th to Dec 20th), they’re just keepin’ the darn thing on the whole time.
Ray:
I am Christmas shopping for scales. Withings.com has the Wireless Scale
Smart Connected Scale $49.95. Is that the WS-30 that lists for $99.95?
Now the tough question what is a better deal Withings Body for $77 or WS-30 for $50.
I am pretty much a Garmin centric.
Thanks
John
It’s essentially the same scale. They renamed it, and tweaked one portion of the outer shell. But otherwise, same-same.
Ray, unless it’s a really lousy deal, you may have got some figures mixed up on the European Vivoactive deal… 🙂
Thanks!
I just found this Spanish website that shows the sales going on in Europe. I don’t speak Spanish but just look under Marca to see the brands. link to buscopulsometro.com
Amazon UK have the 230 at £149.99 and the 235 at £199.99
When is Zwift scheduled to release the run update?
Looking for the best deal for the Edge 520. Slanecycles selling 185.65 US$+12.73US$ Shipping to the US. Seems too good to be true. Anyone else come across this? Thoughts?

Anyone else seeing a price of EUR 299,95 instead of EUR 224 for the
GARMIN EDGE 520 BUNDLE – AMAZON SPAIN ??
link to amzn.to
Bummer, looks like it’s been changed. I’ll tweak.
GARMIN EDGE 520 BUNDLE – AMAZON SPAIN now at 239.95 euro. Still a good deal. Just bought one! 🙂 Would you recommend buying the silicone cover when using the Edge 520 on a mountainbike?
Target in the US is having an additional 15% off sale through today. It even is working on Garmin items, but it is Target, so they dont have all of the fun stuff
GARMIN FENIX3 HR (OPTICAL) – AMAZON GERMANY is also back at EUR 449
Fenix 3 HR has been €318 on BF and was €369 yesterday on amazon.de so it seems the true discount has been gone. But for all things send/sold by amazon themselves there’s a discount code “Welkom” for €10 discount.
Thanks guys, added in!
Also the Fenix 3 Hr is up to 449 instead of 369 on Amazon.de
RE: Wtf on the Vivofit Jr. I can tell you that activity trackers have become huge in the affluent suburban school that my kids attend. Lots of kids have them as hand-me-downs from their parents, and it’s at the top of my ten-year old’s Hanukkah wish list this year (but he insisted that the Vivofit Jr. was for younger kids than him!).
Garmin Forerunner 235 WHR on amazon.de – 188,99 EUR (flash deal)
How does the waiting list work on Amazon for lightning deals?
You’re in a queue in case someone doesn’t complete their purchase.
Thanks
I tried, I really did. None of the stuff I’m wanting for Christams presents has been reduced.
So when something I’ve been tempted by, since its launch, was reduced. I just had to step in and buy something, for myself. I now have a Garmin Varia radar wending its way to me. Thanks for the discount code.
Ray — Am I doing something wrong, or is the Vivosmart HR deal dead, like failing to use a required code? You’ve got it listed at $69 with an unknown expiration date, but yesterday is was $85 and then $95, and now it’s $120.
Thanks.
Indeed, the deal is dead. Or at least, different now. As of 12:01AM it’s now $119 ($30 off). The schedule I have says it’s now good at that price till Dec 10th.
I should have all these finished cleaned up by the end of the day. Kinda a mess, as I stupidly used three different table formats (Garmin-Suunto, European, Everything Else), so when moving them to Expired, they don’t mesh anymore and I end up with three different expired tables. So I’m manually recoding them which is taking some time.
But, i like having the ‘What were the deals’ from a historical perspective year after year, so I think it’s long-term worth it.
Thanks. Do you think there’s a reasonable chance the price will get better before Christmas, or do you recommend buying before December 10?
FYI – If tracking expired deals, the Vivosmart HR+ (with GPS) was generally $119 over the weekend, but when I went to order from Amazon yesterday, the price had dropped to $101, which is what I purchased at. Now up to $169.
Wow… $101 is an incredible deal. I ordered it from CT (together with a Scosche Rhythm) for $119. Unfortunately, the DCR code did not seem to work so I was not able to support Ray (and get the additional 10% off.. :-)) but I guess that’s ok for the sales…
Yeah, the $99 was the approved price until 12:00AM last night. Now the approved sale price is $119.
I don’t know if we’ll see anything more beyond the 10th, though historically Garmin has renewed sales around then, but usually not re-dropped prices further than before. The reason is that often causes headaches for retailers who then have to deal with either refunds or the like.
Thanks for the support all!
I hate this site. It makes me addicted to electronic running gadgets and is a disaster for my wallet. Thanks to this awful post I couldn’t resist buying a scosche rhythm + on clever training Uk. Guess I’ll be eating old bread and water for the rest of the year.
Anyway :p , thanks for the great reviews on this site and the useful buyer’s advice, the sports realm is a better place thanks to this site and I couldn’t imagine buying my electrronic gadgets without this site. Very pleased I could support this site with my purchase.
Thanks for the support!
I continue to hope you hate the site! 😉
I also realized this addiction of mine. And you know what I did? The next day after I bought a Fenix 3 HR at a glorious price of EUR 319 on amazon.de I cancelled my order. I did the same with two items bought on amazon.co.uk. I had a strange, mixed feeling, but was happy that I was able to relinquish them.
I have been looking at this for a while; am I the only one noticing that the Garmin Fenix 3 “Regular Price” is wrong ($499 vs. $599) and that there is a “<" to properly close the HTML tag after the Vivofit 3 name? Am I the only one with OCD? :))
Anyhow, thank you for this list. Invaluable. I am a somewhat reluctant owner of the fenix 3 HR now; classic impulse buy, fully aware of the fact that I will regret it in January when the 5 comes out.
Thanks – fixed on both!
Thank you so much for this Ray. I want to get my wife the Vivo smart HR. I see you have it listed twice, one for 119 and one for 169. I cannot find the 119 anywhere. Is that maybe the one without HR? Thanks.
There are two versions of the Vivosmart HR.
Vivosmart HR: This is with optical HR
Vivosmart HR+: This is with optical HR *and* GPS
The Vivosmart HR is $119, whereas the Vivosmart HR+ is $169.
Both are on sale though – so a good deal either way. Hope this helps!
Here’s my dilemma. I bought the Garmin Vivoactive HR for $169 and then I also bought the Fenix HR 3 for $399.
I currently have the 910XT and love the device! I also want the daily activity tracking bits as well, so I need to upgrade.
I had the Fitbit One and still have the Aria Scale, and want to go Garmin only. I like Connect the best…
I run a little, hike, am fairly active and just want to really love the F3HR… I mean I really do, it offers everything I want. My only concern is the next iteration probably being right around the corner, F4/5HR/S whatever.
So do I:
A) Rock the F3HR at a great price and be stoked?
B) Sport the Vivoactive for the daily tracking/sleep bits and continue using my 910XT for running/workouts?
C) Return them both and wait for the successor to the F3HR?
Thanks for the input!

I have thought long and hard about the Fenix 3 HR. I also bought the Vivoactive HR, and it has become my everyday watch. I am a personal trainer and gym owner, so I teach multiple classes a day and have personal training sessions as well. For my personal workouts, I use the MyZone chest strap or Scosche Rhythm + for greater accuracy. The Vivoactive provides loads of information, displays incoming calls and texts, and it even lets me control the music in the gym. It is light, has great battery life, tracks a ton of activities, and it lets me customize data screens for each one.
So, why am I considering the Fenix 3? Because it looks so damn good! I missed my $399 window, so I’ll probably wait to see if there is a similar Christmas discount. If not, I’ll hold off until CES to see if a new model is announced. If it is, they’ll probably discount the Fenix 3 even more.
Bottom line is, I’d recommend keeping the Vivoactive. If you explore all the features and customizations, you may end up retiring the 910XT (although it is a great watch). I’d return the Fenix 3, and wait for the next product announcement. Then again, if you’re like me, you’ll keep everything. Although the Vivoactive is my daily watch at the moment, I still use my TomTom Spark 3 Cardio and Suunto Ambit 3. The only brand I have completely dropped from the rotation is Fitbit (Charge and Surge).

Interesting that FR 235 is now discounted to $AU 296 (approx $US 220) across numerous retailers in Australia. That’s quite a bit lower than anything I’ve seen on US/UK sites. Seems like a permanent cut or the product is doing particularly bad Down Under.
where do you put the Scosche on your arm. still trying to get any the of consistency with it
I put it on my bicep, so basically just to the edge of where a t-shirt would cover on my upper arm.
I wear it on the outer edge of my forearm, just below the elbow. Bicep works too, but for me, it is less susceptible to movement on the forearm when I’m doing a strength workout.
Hi, Ray!
Is CT EU preparing any Xmas deals with Scosche Rythm+ ?
Unfortunately, I found out too late that my order was declined by their fraud system.
It is a complete mystery to me why this happened.
I hope their future sales will be less ‘conservative’ compared to CT US sales.
Goran
How did you find out it was cancelled?
My order has not been dispatched yet (placed on 25th for rythm+ which had 5-7 business days delay).
I sent them an email today, but nobody got back yet.
Aris
Hi, Aris
Although i received an e-mail confirming my order, they didn’t send me the e-mail with a number to track my order. So after a few days i logged into my account on their website and under ‘My orders’ i saw that it was declined by their fraud system.
In a way i’m kinda glad that it happened because their EU sale offers were poor compared to the US ones.
Goran
Can anyone advise if Garmin 920xt from US Amazon carries international warranty?
Generally speaking Garmin service centers globally will service any product from any country.
Do you have recommendations for a GPS watch that will display distance, time, pace all at one time? With or without HR, budget to mid range price. Thanks!
That’s pretty much all of them I think! I can’t think of GPS watch that won’t do that…. So take your pick from the excellent writeup above. I have a fenix 3 and love it, my daughter has a tomtom runner and is perfect for her – so from the bottom to the top of the cost spectrum, you have some great choices.
Thanks! I will check these out. I know they all do this but not all put all 3 items on 1 screen view. Some of the budget models make you scroll through screens to get different combos of data.
Have the 910xt triathlon pkg. will 920xt work with my 910 triathlon pkg (hrm strap and cadence sensor?
Yup, 100%.
yeah man! My 910xt’s on/off button doesnt work which is kinda BS!
Quick correction: you have the one-day sale price of the Elemnt accidentally transposed: it’s $296, not $269. I almost fell off my chair when I saw $269, but too good to be true. . .
Thanks, fixed!
Has anybody heard about any one day sale in Europe?
Either today or in the near future?
I haven’t, I don’t think that’s in the cards at this point. :-/
FYSA – Amazon has both the Withings Body and Body Cardio discounted. Body (with additional 25% discount) is running about $68, and the Body Cardio is sitting at $129
The Coupon code WELKOM for 10Euro discount doesn’t work, Any Idea?
Either the product you selected wasn’t sold and delivered by Amazon.de or the code has expired, also the code only works once per account.
Fyki even if the code does not work you can get a Fenix3 HR at a fair price. On amazon.it it has been selling for EUR 399 since 15th December.
And since the Italian VAT is higher by 3 percentage points than in Germany, your final price will be less by an extra 9 compared to a purchase in Germany.
I mean that in case of same prices in these two amazon sites the displayed Italian gross price always means a lower net price. To cut a long story short I saved 59 euros for you 😉
And amazon.fr joined, the price is EUR399 there, too.
It seems that it will be the new price level in the mid-term.
I just saw a holiday deal at Eastern Mountain Sports (EMS) for the Fenix 3 in Red/Silver for $250. Would rather shop through Amazon or Clever Training (to support the site) but this seemed like a good last minute present for someone…
I just noticed that clever training (US) listed garmin varia radar for $150, 25% off. Not sure if the VIP points work, but great price.

Does anyone know if there is ever “boxing day” sales on sports tech? I don’t see it referenced anywhere and wondering if anything will pop up again post CMAS. Thanks.
None that I’ve seen unfortunately.
Wiggle has the Wahoo Kickr on sale at 20% off (£799) for today only in the UK.
Any idea of deals for the New Year ? With comdex coming I would think they would start to clear out excess inventory
In Europe there is a game with the price of Fenix 3 HR. If you regularly check European amazon sites you can see that eg today both amazon.it and amazon.de lowered the price to EUR379. Then amazon.it increased the price over 400. Amazon.de sells still at 379.
