"crap" for short - I think it's the stuff wrapped around tubes that
makes it look like carbon fibre composite.

That is, extra weight for no benefit.

Well I certainly wouldn't buy a bike from them, but their bike clothes are
exceptionally good value, work well and wash well.

Not true. It helps you get much more use from your insurance than you might
otherwise.

Err not quite, I tried to lift one up last year, I think the deep
freezes they keep pizzas in are a bit lighter ;-)

But it's got "Double wall alloy rims with alloys" -- that's alloys but
TWICE!

Personally, I can't wait. Do you think they'll let me test ride one?

A far as the checkout, yes. I like the way on real carbon frames they
leave little ovals out of the paintwork so you can show it off,
unfortunately the gas pipe frame manufacturers make stickers the same
shape ;-)

Probably a stupid question but....

Is this stuff only in Aldi after Jul 15th - or is it there now?

Thanks
