Summer is winding down, which means retailers are starting to clear out warm-weather gear before fall takes over. REI Outlet already has some pretty aggressive markdowns right now, with select cycling gear, shoes, apparel, and even an ebike discounted by roughly 25% to 50%.

Labor Day is one of the last major opportunities of the year to score meaningful discounts on current and outgoing-model-year ebikes before the holiday shopping season begins.
