While I might be a little suspicious of a first-timer to AM-
B posting about a deal, it's certainly fine by me, Blaine.

I grabed one of those Topeaks before they all went away.
Major sale at REI yesterday.

Spammer. Actually, I think good bike deals are newsworthy.
It would only be spam if you worked for REI, and even then,
if it was a really good deal...

It's bike related, and you are not selling it, so I would
say go for it. There's always the marketplace group too....

Spammer!

j/k.

Since you aren't related in any way to REI or Topeak (I
ASSume), I dunno how it could be spamming. Just "sharing
good news."

Yeah, go with that.

You post what you want Mr. B. I don't understand why folks
spend so much energy giving a ration of sh*t about what
others post, instead of ignoring them.

I for one like to be made aware of good deals out there, if
I'm not interested, I don't open it.
