Black Triday — Are you ready?
The best places to pick up deals for triathletes
Black Friday, a US-inspired phenomenon, is a day of discounts. Fortunately in the UK, most of the shopping takes place online which means you can pick up bargains from the comfort of your sofa and avoid unnecessary injury from mass starts:
Some retailers have started running Black Friday offers in the run up to the actual day, the 24th November. In this case, products are discounted until they are sold out so there is a sense of urgency if you spy something you need.*
To help you snag the best deals, we have outlined our Black Triday hot-spots:
Wiggle
With new deals announced each week, Wiggle is discounting a whole range of products from bikes to lights and everything in between. We are still waiting for the final week of deals but right now there is some tempting reductions on clothing — perfect motivation to keep you riding through the winter!
Two hot deals not to be missed 🔥
- Pick up a Garmin Edge 1000 for £275, a whopping 44% discount!
- Ladies, 2XU’s X-Vent Y back Tri Suit is a steal at £49.50 (55% discount)
BlueSeventy
Wetsuit, swimwear and triathlon gear provider, blueseventy will be running various Black Friday offers at the end of this month. There will be discounts across their products on items such as goggles, swimwear, buoyancy shorts and accessories.
We advise checking out:
- Reaction Wetsuit — a high end wetsuit designed for athletes who are not necessarily from a swimming background, or want the extra buoyancy assistance around the legs and hips.
- New jazzy swimwear — to help you look forward to hitting the pool!
Also, as friends of BlueSeventy, we have a discount code that will enable you to benefit from Black Friday deals ahead of the public. To get the code, head over to our Facebook page — like us and send us a DM.
SigmaSport
If you’re looking for bikes, components and accessories, Sigma Sport has a plethora of offers for you to browse — and most of them are available now!
In the coming months, as it gets colder and the weather becomes unpredictable, having the correct kit is paramount.
Here’s how Sigma could help ☔️
- Castelli Gabba, £75 — 50% off
- Threo Running Leggings, £44.99 — 31% off

Amazon
With so many departments and products, Amazon approaches Black Friday like a shopping channel. Products will be discounted for a limited time, during which there is only a certain number of each in stock. There are also daily deals, which are the ‘headliner’ of the day.
Today’s deal is one worth looking at (as every triathlete needs a decent coffee before a session):
There are also plenty of handy accessories for the winter available including foam rollers, resistance bands and more.
