With the rain setting in again post-Beast from the East, it's back to business as usual for the British winter weather – and we've found some incredible reductions on the jackets you'll need if you want to get out there and get the miles in on your local loop.

Even after Black Friday, Cyber Monday and Christmas, it still looks as though the big online retailers such as Wiggle, ProBikeKit and Leisure Lakes are reducing stock pretty heavily. When else would you see Assos's top rain jacket at almost half price, for example?

Cycling Weekly's experienced tech team have picked out these deals. There's nothing here that we wouldn't ride ourselves.

With each product is a ‘Buy Now’ link. If you click on this then we may receive a small amount of money from the retailer when you purchase the item. This doesn’t affect the amount you pay.

40% off Assos rs.SturmPrinz EVO jacket at Wiggle

Wiggle is offering 40 per cent off Assos's ultimate rain jacket. Assos designed the SturmPrinz to be the absolute best with no compromises and no corners cut, which is why at its full price it's super expensive. It's been Assos's top rain jacket for some time now – we reviewed it in 2014 and had to mark it down for the price – but with this deal that's not a factor any more.
