Vittoria Zaffiro Pro Home Trainer Tire: $35 (31% off)

Smart trainers chew through quality race tires. That is, unless they’re purpose-built to take the beating. The Zaffiro’s nylon sidewall construction prioritizes wear-resistance over speed, serving as a “pennies per virtual mile” cost-saver that keeps your race-day rubber in prime condition.

Backcountry Slickrock 3L Hip Pack: $48 (30% off)

Rough descents expose every flaw in a hip pack’s stability, where the Slickrock stays locked in place without loosening the belt to grab a phone. Stretch-woven construction eliminates unwanted bounce that plagues cheaper packs, while dual bottle pockets and a raised mesh back panel keep trail riders hydrated and cool.

Vittoria Mazza XC-Trail 29in Tire: $46 (51% off)

Built from years of athlete feedback, the Mazza is not just built to shine in one condition. That’s the point of this do-it-all that balances siped center lugs, which lower rolling resistance, with aggressive side lugs that bite into loose corners. The 4C Graphene compound stays supple and flat-resistant across mixed XC and trail terrain.

Rapha Core Lightweight Jersey – Men’s: $61 (35% off)

Part of Rapha’s Core line, this high-value, hot-weather jersey trades nothing on breathability. A mesh front panel and dense knit back panel manage heat and sun exposure, while a full-length zip dumps heat on humid summer rides.

Vittoria Rubino Pro G2.0 Clincher Tire: $31–$41 (up to 49% off)

Riders who don’t want to swap tires for race day will appreciate a build that bridges training miles and race performance on the same platform. A foldable bead sheds weight over the standard Rubino, while 3C Graphene 2.0 compound and a 150 TPI casing keep puncture resistance high through everyday training.

GOREWEAR Phantom GORE-TEX INFINIUM Jacket – Men’s: $110–$120 (up to 45% off)

One piece, two jobs. This softshell weather barrier turns into a vest the moment temps climb, thanks to zip-off raglan sleeves that stash into the rear pockets. GORE-TEX INFINIUM construction blocks wind without trapping heat, making it a go-to layer for unpredictable spring and fall rides.

Burley Cub X Bike Trailer: $547 (50% off)

This Burley’s burly aluminum frame is light enough to hitch solo, while reclining dual seats and a 55L cargo capacity make it a one-trailer solution for two-kid family rides. Bonus: the stroller kit ships in the box, so there’s no extra purchase needed for the bike-to-stroller switch.

Reynolds TR 309/289 XC 29in Boost Wheelset: $864 (40% off)

This deliberate XC race design features a wider 30mm front rim for cornering grip, paired with a narrower 28mm rear rim for keeping rolling speeds high where it counts. The carbon construction and Reynolds TR MTN hubs round out this aggressive, race-focused wheelset.

Pinarello Grevil F7 GRX 820 Gravel Bike: $3,400 (35% off) 

Pinarello’s aero-focused gravel race bike is built on the same aerodynamic obsession as its flagship road race machine, in a category where most competitors don’t bother. A Carbon T900 UD frame, flat-back tube profile, and Twin Arms rear triangle combine stiffness, vibration damping, and genuine aero gains for riders racing gravel to win.
