Welcome to Velo Deals. We review the retail landscape to bring you deals that deserve your attention. It could be a discount or simply a product so good that you should buy it. Either way, if it’s worth it, you’ll see it here. If you want to see the rest of the category, check out all of our Bike Offers blanket.
Amazon Prime Day may be the most cynical holiday ever. Despite this, if you were going to buy something anyway, you might as well save some money. I went looking for products that I know and love that are also on sale. I managed to find 11 Prime Day cycling deals on gear I’d tell you to buy any day of the year, now offered for less. There’s a bit of tech in Prime Day, so you’ll see that represented here, but I also have a bit of cycling nutrition in the mix.
Wahoo Bolt 3 – 36% off
Wahoo bike computers are synonymous with simplicity. They’re simple to use but don’t skimp on what you need. The final piece of the puzzle that Wahoo was missing was self-training from the bike computer, and there is now access to the Wahoo and Coros training dashboards. The ELEMNT Bolt 3 will likely be my best budget bike computer in future best bike computer buying guides, and at 36% off, nothing else competes.
SHOKZ OpenRun Pro 2 – 31% off
If you like to listen to music while you ride, the best way to do that is with bone conduction headphones, and SHOKZ is the market leader. You can always hear what’s going on around you, and on top of that, they can’t fall, they have great battery life, and if you want to stop your music, a simple press of a button makes them disappear without having to put them in a pocket.
Apple AirPods Pro 3 – 28% off
The only challenge with bone conduction headphones is that they aren’t the best choice outside of cycling and the mic performance is universally poor. If you’re looking for something that will stay secure on the bike (use just one earbud) and work well in normal life, then Apple users want the AirPods Pro 3. I also tested them on a trainer with a fan in front of my face, and for the Apple ecosystem, that’s what you want.
Wahoo Fitness KICKR CORE 2 ZWIFT COG and Click – 27% off
Winter is coming and that means Zwift for many people. Wahoo is by far the market leader when it comes to indoor trainers, but the brand has a bit of a challenge ahead. The deals have gotten so good over the years that it’s hard to recommend the most expensive options. Adding Cog and Click makes adding your outdoor bike even easier. I considered it the best smart trainer for Zwift in my best smart trainers buying guide and that means the best in my mind. Take advantage of a great deal now before winter really sets in.
Skratch Labs Energy Chews – 25% off
One of the keys to eating enough on long trips is to mix textures and flavors. I usually drink my calories while riding, but I always carry chews so I can stop briefly and chew something.
Tailwind Nutrition Endurance Fuel – 20% Off
As I said, I tend to prefer to drink my calories on the bike, and this is my preferred choice. There’s a decent amount of sodium and a flavor profile that’s sweet, but not sickly. You can also choose a caffeinated option if that is your preference.
SaltStick Energy Chews Energy Gummies – 20% off
There is science behind the idea that cramps come from an overexcited motor neuron that repeatedly misfires and locks up the muscle, rather than simple dehydration or electrolyte imbalance, and that it is possible to stop them with a shock to the vagus nerve. This shock comes from sour foods, which is why I also carry sour salt stick energy gummies with me. To be clear, Salt Stick doesn’t make this claim, and its gummies may not be sour enough. I’m not too worried because they still taste delicious and the cramping relief is just a potential bonus. You also get 130 mg of salt per sachet, which also helps with cramps.
Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 – 22% off
If you’re not in the Apple ecosystem, I find the choice of headphones perfect for getting on and off the bike to be much more open. I’ve gone back and forth with different companies that offer a little more of this or that, but in the end I always come back to the Pixel Buds Pro 2 because the mic is really good and the Gemini is so easy to access. For Android users who want headphones that will work just as well on the bike as on the bike, these are my choice.
Insta360 GO Ultra – 16% off
If you like the videos I post for Velo, this is one of two cameras I use. Insta360 has a huge range of fantastic products, but I chose the GO Ultra as my second camera, which I attach to my jersey for a second point of view. It’s also a fantastic choice for everyday life, as you can use it as a small travel camera/video camera when connected. You can read my full Insta360 GO Ultra review for more information.
GoPro Mission 1 Pro – 14% off
The other camera I use for shooting video is the Mission 1 Pro. As good as Insta360 and DJI are, nothing else currently rivals the quality of the Mission 1 Pro. This is a professional-level tool for anyone who cares about the best quality content. You can learn more in my full GoPro Mission 1 Pro review.
Garmin Venu X1 – 13% off
One of the best things about Garmin is how the ecosystem lets you switch between devices seamlessly. I don’t need to wear a bracelet or watch while riding because I have a Garmin cycling computer (not on sale for Prime Day). When I get off the bike and put the watch on, the data changes seamlessly so everything is uninterrupted in Garmin Connect. This does open up a little need for something different in my watch though. I want something that looks good and functions as much as a smartwatch as it does a fitness watch. This is where the Garmin Venu X1 comes in.
Bonus – DJI RS 4 Mini Combo – 33% off
I’m putting this one on the list because I’ll probably grab one myself while it’s on sale. I can’t really make this specific to cycling, but if you want to know how I get the silky smooth B-roll of the bikes you see in the videos, I use the DJI RS 3 Mini. The 4 folds flat for travel and the combo version follows suit. I’ve been thinking about this for a while, so maybe this is my time. I found another offer that you took advantage of and I’m not including it, drop it in the comments.
