Started poking around Random Bike Parts and found some EXTREMELY solid mid-priced bike deals I like a lot. Maybe you’ll agree. Snap one of these up before the winter leftover stock is gone.
First up, some from Blue Competition Cycles.
Blue makes some great bikes. Used to focus on aero TT style bikes, but branched out, ran into financial trouble, reemerged and now headquartered in Wilmington, DE – or at least incorporated there. Money where my mouth is: my wife has an older carbon bike from Blue, lovely bike, excellent build. My son and I both have Blue Norcross cyclocross bikes which I posted here last year. Great quality, really solid, have taken a beating, ride this one more than any others. Let’s go from low price to high:
Blue Prosecco AL 53.5cm 700c Gravel Cyclocross Road Bike Shimano 105 11s Disc $686 shipped, https://www.randombikeparts.com/c…5-11s-disc
Totally solid specs, Shimano 105 11 speed bike with proper CX 46/36 chainwheels and a carbon fork, 23 lbs. The only ding is the mechanical disc brakes which should be replaced immediately with TRP Hy/Rd or the TRP Spyre calipers. With that one change you’d have a for-real CX race bike for under $1000. Only size 53.5 available, good to maybe 5’8 to maybe 6′ with a bit of fitting.
Blue Axino carbon road bikes in a couple flavors. Note that these use T700 carbon fiber which is pretty high end. These are NOT low end carbon frames.
Shimano 105 in 56.3cm for $1313 shipped. Taiwanese carbon frame weighing under 18 pounds. Wow. https://www.randombikeparts.com/c…ew-blemish I’d call to ask about the ‘blemish’.
Shimano Ultegra build in 53 and 56 cm, under 17 pounds for $1607 shipped
https://www.randombikeparts.com/c…d-700c-new Actually, a bunch of sizes with slight price variations, so look around the website.
Blue Aero AC1 EX Ultegra Di2 in 50.5cm for $1764. OMG! It’s even in my size. This is the Ultegra ELECTRONIC shifters on a lovely aero bike frame. The DI2 Ultegra groupset goes for what, maybe $1200 by itself? https://www.randombikeparts.com/c…-pre-order Amazing deal for the right person.
Finally, Dura Ace mechanical groupset, multiple sizes available, under 16 lbs, for $2391 shipped. Rotor crankset. This is serious stuff for the money. https://www.randombikeparts.com/c…s-700c-new
Ok, gonna finish with one more
Marin carbon fiber with Ultegra 10 speed in 52.5 cm for $1312 shipped. This one must have been hanging around the warehouse, but an Ultegra bike for this price? Even if it’s a 10 speed instead of 11, it’s a solid deal at this price. https://www.randombikeparts.com/c…ra-10s-new
That’s all for now. I’ve got bike fever bad with this cold weather. Happy cycling!
