NEW Item: Contour Connect View

We have added a very cool product to our inventory. The Contour Connect View is a small blue tooth adapter that allows your iPhone to work as a view finder for your ContourGPS

If you have had a helmet camera before you already know what a pain it can be to set it up correctly: Is it capturing the view crooked? Is it recording? Should I retake the scene? Etc...
This contraption, along with the beauty of Bluetooth, allows your iPod/iPhone to be used as a view finder. You get live video feed and you can change shutter speed, video, and sound settings in the camera - all this from your phone and on the trail! How cool is that!?

Bad news: this is only for the iPod & iPhone

Good news: Android owners are not being left out. Contour says there is one on the works and it will be coming out soon.

Besides the iPhone/iPad and Contour GPS, you will also need to download and install an application for your handheld. Here is a link to the app needed.

"I just had to write a quick note to let you all know how pleased I am with my recent purchase. I placed my order online yesterday and the package arrived today! It is unbelievable to receive a web order that quickly, especially with standard ground shipping. I am leaving for a trip this weekend and hoped to get these items in time -- Pricepoint way exceeded my expectations. Thank you for running such a smooth and efficient operation. I am already a repeat customer and will definitely be back soon. "
-Allison S.

"I want to thank your entire staff for your commitment to excellence. I shop all the online bike sites and find that Price Point consistently has the best price, availability, and shipping. Tracking my packages is easy. My purchases arrive quickly and on time. They’re packaged carefully. What I get is exactly what I ordered and backorders are rare... What I appreciate most is that you treat me as a truly valued customer. That’s an increasingly rare experience. Keep it up."
-Rich R.

"I have purchased what I would like to think is quite a bit from your site and have been more than happy almost every time, for the odd occasion when something isn’t right. Your staff has been more then helpful; promptness, politeness. Amazing I don’t know what you are doing but nowhere else have I received service and been more happy with the outcome, every time. Thanks again for being my number one site for bike parts and accessories!"
-Kush N.

"Guys – You have NO idea how INSANELY happy I am with my choice of the SETTE PRIMO frame for my new road bike build. I have been on an aluminum LeMond FOREVER. I bought my wife an Orbea Opal in March for close to $4000 – it is super sweet, don’t get me wrong. But it was finally time for me to build a new bike, I decided on this frameset. I got the frameset last Friday and all of my remaining parts from you guys – went to dinner, drank a jumbo margarita, got home and finished the build about 1AM. Did my first ride Saturday AM after some dt tuning…I wanted to cry, it rides so amazing….quick, responsive, stiff – I feel like I have built an unbelievable bike for less than $2K- I would put this against any $3600-$4000 range carbon machine out there. The fit, setup and feel is just truly wonderful. I will do some posts etc on my local sites because I feel like this is just a wonderful product. WOW is all I can say…I am super happy. Thanks again for super quick, fast shipping etc etc and a little phone help on headset choice…you guys rock big time – no S%&^!!!!!! Thanks!"
-Todd Rosser

"I have to tell you that I think that your company is awesome! I placed an order at 1:00 p.m. on Wednesday. I check my email Thursday morning at 6:00a.m., and the UPS website says that it is going to be delivery today. This order was not a small item like shoes or gloves, is was a single bike rack and a double bike rack, which was listed as a oversized item. Your guys definitely have a customer for life. Keep up the good work and spread this email company wide. You guys all deserve a pat on the back."
-DJ B.

"I would just like to state that you guys are hands down, some of the most efficient people I have ever dealt with. All my orders go out in a timely manner, and your people have always been great to talk with. If you check my history , I have been using you for a while. I have used some other suppliers for some older stuff that you guys may not have, and it has been a nightmare. Keep up the good work."
- Jerry A.

"I just want to let you and the rest of the PricePoint team know that I think you all are doing a great job in selling great products at reasonable prices, keep up the great work."
- Skip K.
