We've found great Easter deals on clothing, Garmins, bikes and more
We've scoured the stores to bring you a host of online shopping bargains
Lockdown continues across the UK as we head into a sunny Easter weekend - but sticking to social isolation rules doesn't mean missing out on bank holiday weekend deals.
A host of retailers are advertising savings to celebrate the four day weekend, with online shopping and delivery meaning you can enjoy the savings without risk.
We've trawled the stores to find the very best savings, highlighting kit that the Cycling Weekly tech team truly rates. Where we've tested the kit in-house, we've added a link to the most recent review so you can read up before taking the plunge.
With each product is a ‘Buy Now’ or ‘Best Deal’ 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.

Elite Direto-X OTS direct drive smart turbo trainer - was £769.99 now £679
Ok, so to manage expectation - you can't buy it now and have it arrive tomorrow, this is a pre-order trainer, available from May 1.
However, turbo trainers are flying off the shelves - with some second hand models on sale for MORE than the RRP - so this is a good deal worth investing in. This model has a max power output of 3,250 watts (good luck hitting that!) replicates climbs as steep as 18 per cent and has a 1.5 per cent accuracy rate.

4iii Precision 2.0 3D power meter 105 - was £379 now £269.99
The 4iii power meter adds just 9g to your bike, is easy to install and in testing we found it to be accurate and consistent enough for our needs, with only small inaccuracies at high power - which could have been down to the single sided nature, and there is scaling available for that if you know you've got an inbalance. This power meter earned a stellar 9/10 in our assessment.

It doesn't matter if you're doing your training indoors or out, saddle comfort is crucial to enjoyment and sustainability.
The Power saddle is a hugely successful model - with many users finding it offers great comfort over long and short rides. It's a 'stubby design' that tends to lock a rider into place. If you prefer to move around, check out the Romin Evo.
