Nicolai

Our German friends have added two exciting new frames to their line up recently, the 140mm travel Helius AC, and it’s big brother. the 160mm travel Helius AM – we’ve got demo bikes of both to try.

Dialled

Alpines and Love/Hates are both back in stock, and with great new colours – the ivory Love/Hate is nice, but we really love the green Alpine. Again, we’ve got both as demo bikes.

Singular

Another new frame, the Hummingbird, designed to work as a rigid 69er (26” rear wheel, 29” front), or a regular 26” wheel bike with 100mm travel fork. And yes, we’ve got a demo bike built.

Trek

Trek’s trail bike, the Fuel EX, has been so popular that this year we’re running demos in two sizes, small and large, which means we can show off both colour ways too, a nicely contrasting black and white.

And if you like riding fast, then you might want to try the Top Fuel, their 100mm travel cross-country full-sus, that we’re running as demo bike this year too.

Alfine Hubs

We’ve been big fans of Rohloff internal gear hubs for some time now, but at £1000 a go, they’re not cheap. The more affordable alternative is the 8 speed Shimano Alfine, and we’ve got this running on two of our demo bikes this year, the 29er Singular Swift and the Dialled Love/Hate.

So if you want a winter bike without breaking the bank, come and give them a try.
