In case you hadn’t noticed, stores are kicking off their holiday deals early this year and everyone – from local bike shops to online retailers – is offering something for mountain bikers. Here’s the low down on places to save some green on MTB gear this weekend.

Local Bike Shops

You’ll have to check with your local shop but based on what we’re hearing, there should be some great deals out there this weekend. A couple shops near us are offering 12-month, zero interest financing on large purchases and Andy Jordan’s in Augusta is offering $50-$1000 off select bikes plus a 20% off coupon for Camelbak products. Get on your local bike shop’s email list to keep up with the latest deals!

HucknRoll Festivus Sale

HucknRoll has some huge deals this month like 60% off the Six Six One Evolution helmet and 50% off Maloja Freeride shorts. You can also find complete bikes from Santa Cruz, Yeti, Kona, and Rocky Mountain at HucknRoll at up to 40% off (like the Rocky Mountain Element 30 MSL for $1,750, normally $2,999).

Performance Bike: 20% off everything

Performance Bike has more than 100 stores in 18 states and this Friday through Sunday they’re offering 20% off everything in the store between 9am and 2pm. The company is also offering select Black Friday deals like $14.99 jerseys and shorts and a $39.99 Bell Delirium MTB helmet.

Pricepoint End of the Year Blowout

If you can view the Pricepoint End of the Year Blowout ad without going into seizures you’ll find there are some good deals in there. The ad claims savings up to 97% on 800+ items from frames to pedals and brakes. If anyone happens to find the 97% off item(s), let us know – we want in!

REI: Winter Sale

REI is running their winter sale through Monday and in addition to discounts up to 30%, they’re also offering a daily deal on the website. Sadly it’s too late to get the Niterider MiNewt Mini 150 for $69.99 (normally $120) but there are still five days of deals remaining (today’s deal: a Columbia half zip top for $39.99). Take a look at these cycling-specific deals available during the Winter Sale.

Singletracks: $10 off Memberships

Our first ever Black Friday / Cyber Monday deal! Get $10 off your Pro, Trail, or Training membership through midnight Monday, November 28 when you use this link and enter the code GRAVY1.

I’m not really much of a shopper but when I hear “bike gear deals” my ears tend to perk up. Here’s a quick run down on deals to be had on Black Friday, November 27, 2009.

REI is giving away gift cards and reusable shopping bags to the first 300 customers through the door Friday morning. The gift cards will range in value from $5 to $100 and doors open at a leisurely 8 am. Sweet.

JensonUSA has put together some online Black Friday deals that will be available starting at 12:01 am Pacific time (that’s 3:01 am for us east coasters). Not sure exactly what the deals will be but be sure to check the JensonuUSA homepage early to see what’s on sale!

Performance Bike is offering 20% off to customers who shop between 9am and 12 noon on Black Friday (and also on Saturday and Sunday). The discount seems to cover EVERYTHING including bikes so if you’re thinking of getting a new rig, now may be the time. In addition Performance is giving customers 20% off online purchases over $75 today and Thanksgiving day. Nashbar.com is offering the same online discount.

HuckNRoll doesn’t seem to have a Black Friday deal per se but they have put together a slick looking holiday gift guide. Also be sure to check out their Spring & Summer gear sale where stuff is up to 50% off.

Pricepoint.com is holding their “Biggest Sale of the Year” through December 31 but then again, they always seem to be having a sale.
