Blog buddies...



We forgot to mention it before, but the guys at Inspired have set up a cool new blog featuring news, team riders interviews, pictures, videos and more!  You can check that out here, where there are a bunch of interviews and footage up from the recent Dressler Camp.  I really should've gone this year...  Next year it is!

New 24" rubber!

The 24" trials market has been taking off of late, although the main limiting factor seemed to be the lack of suitable tyres for the rear of more trials-orientated bikes.  Schwalbe have produced a few different options, although they've been a little tricky to get hold of in the UK.  Fortunately, we've managed to pick up some of their Fat Albert tyres which are a good bet if you'd like a larger volume, lighter 24" rear tyre.




The new Inspired Skye

Danny MacAskill's signature Inspired Skye 24" Bike has had a couple of little tweaks here and there for mid-2012, bringing it bang up to date.  The Hope brakes fitted to the bike now feature the 'Evo' version of the HopeTech levers fitted to new Hope Trial Zone calipers, braking onto the latest Hope Trial Zone Rotors to deliver even greater braking power than before.

As an extra little bonus the bikes are also now fitted with updated Inspired Lock-On grips that feature a new grub screw-style lock-on system rather than the traditional pinch collar system.
