Ozonys Curve HS33/Disc...

As a partner for the dual HS33 model we put yesterday, here's the HS33/Disc model!  Pretty light at 9.000kg (gotta love those precision weights too), with a good spec overall - not to mention the pimpin' colour-coded Hope TrialZone setup!

New video and new tool...

New product and new video too - Gav and Mark went for a ride in Blackpool last weekend, and Gav made this video of the day. 



Team rider Flipp has also been getting up to a bit of riding, here's a photo from Mike Judson of him doing a reverse bar manual tuck?  As you do!

















We've also got a new multi-tool in from BBB - the Maxifold.  A whole load of features on a pretty dinky tool - it basically features almost everything you'll need if you get caught out on a ride!


If you happen to need a bag to carry said tool in, we also have some new bags from Try-All which may come in handy!

5x5 with Flipp and Stan

A few weekends ago, a group of us headed to Shipley Glen for a ride.  Flipp and Stan both managed to bag 5 clips each, and here they are.  It's cool to see two people go at riding in such different ways!

Lezyne pumps now in stock

Lezyne make some awesome products, and we now have some of them in stock!  You may remember them as the brand behind the recent "Lezyne Presents:  Danny MacAskill" video:



Aside from sponsoring great riders they also make great products, and here's one of them - the Tech Drive HV pump.






High quality CNC-machined aluminium construction, a higher volume resulting in it requiring 30% fewer strokes to achieve inflation than conventional pumps and a low weight make it an ideal mini pump!

Titanium goodness...

Trialtech's Ti bolts are always a thing of beauty, and they've now revised their bolts to make them even nicer!  The M6 x 25s in particular are pretty sweet - cool detailing on the bolt head, and even a little recess on the tip of the bolt that helps drop a touch more weight too.  They're now 0.1g lighter than previously which, although it doesn't sound like much of a difference, is pretty good going on a bolt that weighs 3.1g in total...

Trashzen: Your Complete Guide to Trials Riding

Launched today, Julien Happich's excellent book Your Complete Guide To Trials Riding is a great resource for anyone who wants to learn more about trials, it's history, and techniques for riding.  At 240 pages it's got plenty to get stuck into, and with plenty of full colour photographs supporting the writing it looks great too.

Bashing supplies from Echo.

We all make mistakes, and sometimes that can include getting up stuff while out riding.  Fortunately, Echo have you (and your freewheel/sprocket) covered thanks to two new products - the Urban 2012 Bashring and the Mini Bashplate.




The Urban bashring is a slight re-design from their long-standing older model, with the new 18t bashring weighing the same weight as the previous 16t model.  Not bad!  They look pretty cool too. 



The Mini bashplate is designed specifically for 2012 and newer Echo Lite and Lite SL frames with the slightly stumpier bash mount design.  These won't fit older models (or any other brand, including the new Koxx Sky 2 bikes)!

Big ENO!


The White Industries ENO Trials freewheels have been a mainstay of the trials world for a long ol' time now (I still remember being excited when my own turned up 7 or 8 years ago), and after quite a few years of only being around in the popular 18t size they've now been upsized!  We've got the 20t (below) and 22t (above) models available now, for £89.00.

Stan Shaw Summer 2011

Stan somehow managed to get an entire videos-worth of clips lying around on his hard-drive from last summer, so now they're being given an airing!  Some tech riding all with his trademark smooth style. 

And yeah, it's a carbon fibre top tube, and no you can't buy them like that...

Mike Steidley

Mike Steidley has been one of our team riders for a pretty long time now, doing countless shows all around the US (and further afield!) as well as taking part in the US trials comps.  He recently took a trip to France, and here's the video from the time he spent there!  If you'd like to keep up with Mike's travels, click here to check out his Fan page.

What goes around comes around...

2 years or so ago, our very own Ali C starred in a Gatorade advert with Olympian and world champion cyclist Victoria Pendleton, which you can check out here:



Now, we've got some Gatorade Pro Series products in stock!  We've got a Pro Series Starter Pack, the Prime 01 drink, Perform 02 powder sticks and the Recover 03 drinks in stock.  I'm a pretty big fan of the orange flavour - easily the nicest energy drink I've tried!
