They have great prices, but the shipping to the US has been so high that it offset that. Free shipping means bargains.
For example: Fulcrum 900 wheels for $84! These are nice training/rain/commuter wheels.
Jobsworth Torque Wrench for $23
etc

The-House.com is going out business, they have some decent pricing on their site now. There's a 40% off coupon 'SAVINGS' that you can use. I picked up some spare helmets for the kids and some new mountain shoes for next to nothing.

Not sure if this qualifies, but in the clearance aisle at the local Enormous Asterisk:

Sorry, "Enormous Asterisk" doesn't suggest anything to me. The picture makes it seem brick-and-mortar, but the only enormous sporting goods store around here is Dick's.

At storefront size, the asterisk alone is large enough to modify thousands of sentences.

A... spark, you say. Not that you might have any sort of affinity for that particular term, huh?
At least I've learned something new today...

Regardless of where those shorts are sold, I would say that $13 for the shorts is $12 too much. Based on packaging alone, those look like they would do more harm than good on a 50mi ride.

They might be fine for 1hr ride on the trainer I suppose. Given where they're sold, maybe they're using a Rapha chamois? 
Going way OT.. were these premium bikes ever launched and does anyone own one?

Specialized RBX shorts and Bibs are on sale, almost everywhere. Specialized site has the shorts for $42, the bibs for $54. Most other retailers who sell this short/bib are also similar priced for these shorts and bibs.
It's a great short, I have a pair and they are one of the most comfortable I have.
They have a longer leg length / inseam, but the fit is excellent for me. The fabric is really nice and conforms well. The general cut is great, but sizing is more 'fit' than full. I'm a 33 waist and lean legged, no butt, the Medium just fits nicely, but if I was more like my 'softer' 34-35 days, The M would not fit. So size appropriately
Leg fit and grip is great, the waist is more unobtrusive than any other short I've owned, or own. The waist band is wide and only 2/3 of it is elasticized (the rear and sides). The from of waist band is non-stretch material and doesn't dig in. Fabric grade is top class.
Can't comment on the bids. But if the short bottom is same as the shorts, and the shoulder straps are good, they must be just as great !
Undetermined how long this will be available... I ordered some more
Ride On
