Pro-Carbon Racing Downtube Protector

Brand new in, the Pro-Carbon Racing Downtube Protector is a super lightweight way of making your frame last longer. Stan's been (unintentionally!) hammering his for weeks now, and it's held up amazingly well. Just watch the video for proof!



More details available here.

New products!

As you may of noticed on the TartyBikes homepage we have been busy updating the website with lots of new products.

One of the highlights include the new Neon Bow headset which looks great, is very light and amazing value.

Banners!

We've been stocking Koxx related banners for a while, but we now also have some Trialtech, Inspired and TartyBikes banners up for sale! Great for jazzing up a room or workshop...







...in other news, we've now got the new Echo TR pads in 'watermelon' and 'grape' flavours (or "Pink" and "Green" to use the proper names).

Ti Snail Cams, the nicest snail cams around?



Echo Cage Pedals with Titanium axles and bolts. The lightest Trials pedals on the market and by some way too!



Finally, not so much titanium, just a very pimp and well thought out lever to fit HS33 brakes.

Born bars



Born's new carbon fibre risers are out. They're... er... "inspired" by another bar out there, but fractionally narrower. Available in red, yellow and (not available yet) white.

New French rubber (Pt.1)

Pt.1? Yeah, well, got the new Try-All tyres in too so they'll be up imminently. In the mean time, Michelin have a couple of new tyres that we reckon would go pretty well on a stock - the Wild Rock'r 2.4" rear and the Wild Grip'r 2.1" front. Good compound, pretty light, good reviews from riders using them so far - check 'em!

26" Holy Rollers

The 24" Holy Rollers are one of our most popular 24" tyres - and with good reason. Super grippy, great profile, great impact absorption, which are 3 good characteristics for your tyres to have. For that reason they found themselves on the wheels of Danny Mac's bike and indeed the bikes of all the 24" riders here at TartyBikes. Not wanting to miss out, Ali C wanted to have a pop at the 26" versions, so we've now got some in stock. Ali's initial impressions of the 26's are as favourable as our's of the 24's. Available for the same price and in the same 2.4" width, the 26" Holy Rollers are available now.

Stan's new video

We've been filming here and there with Stan for a couple of weekends now, and with a change of frame Stan's decided to put this little edit out so he's not mixing up footage on different frames. All Echo, all brakeless, all good.

"I'm a male model, not a male prostitute"

Yep, direct Handsome Boy Modeling School quote steal in the title. If you've not heard them before, hear them now!

Anyways, we now have some pretty swish Koxx Jackets on the go. Riding tested by Adam, dog-walking tested by Claire. Gav is the spruce and dapper model lurking within the coat - here's a few out-takes.

Classy.
