Aldi kit

[VeloSpeed]

Popped into Aldi at lunch time today to pick up some cheap walking poles. Came out with a £1.99 mini pump and a black cycling gilet for £5.99 both absolute bargains ...but are they any good? I'm sure the pump will self destruct on first use but the gilet looks really good. Anyone alse riding in Aldi kit? Should I be keeping and eye out for the weekly specials?

Cheers

picked up a short sleeve jersey at a different Aldi last night too signed up for the news letter too. Now I just have to resist the temptation of cheap BBQs etc

Just bought a gilet in Aldi for €9.99. Looks pretty decent quality. They also have jerseys for €6.99.

In Australia this week they're selling a great allen key set. Long handles, every metric size from 1.5 to 10mm included. $7.
