Rain, rain, go away...

It's still winter (at least it certainly feels it today), and spring with all it's lovely rain is just around the corner. Chances are if you step out to go riding it's going to be raining, so it may be worth spending £10 on one of these bad-boys. Some more detailed photos on site, and a range of sizes from XXXS to XL, so get to it. As usual whenever Gav is modelling things get a little... er... 'fruity', so here are some alternative angles we got.







Fresh orange juice available seperately.

Benito.

This is why he keeps winning things, and also why he's one of the best riders in the world. No-one comes close.



That's from Little Limelight 3 in case any of you are wondering!

Koxx Sky 2 Bikes

The Sky 2 bikes are now online - the Sky 2 26" is here and the Sky 2 20" is here. Some pretty nice details on them!

Forxx.

Yet more new Try-All parts - this time the 26" 4-Bolt Forxx. 770g, 405mm long, 30mm offset.



Observation?

As some of the more observant of you may have noticed, Adam's running the 2011 Try-All Carbon Risers which are now up on the website! Same geo (9 back, 12 up) as last year, same width (730mm), and same total rise (90mm). Same uber low weight of 211g, and with a lower price-tag too...

Shiny Pt. 6...

Been wanting to ride a bit of 26" again, and after building one of these frames up for a customer I couldn't resist any longer! This is pretty much the perfect frame for me - weight, geo, colour, disc only... and they are no longer being produced, so I couldn't miss out.

Built it up with some existing parts and some new ones, with durability and rideability in mind rather than going as light as I could.

Geo is: 1090, +45, 380, 72, full bike weight 9.08kg.

The newest addition to the TartyBikes Team, James Hyland, is now up on the website. James has been well known throughout the trials scene for years, and with his degree finishing in May James will have even more time to focus on his riding.

Tech Levers are Tech.

As you'd expect, I suppose?

Anyway - if you have a Tech lever firstly "Congratulations!", and secondly we now have coloured replacement Lever Blades and Master Cylinder Lids (Or Reservoir Caps if you're like us...).





Plenty more products going up in the next few days too, so keep your eyes peeled!

Someone's also in the workshop right now building up a new frame from one of our latest shipments, but whoever could it be, and what wheel size could it be? Answers on a postcard...
