We now have in stock the new Ultegra Di2 groupset and i have to say it is a thing of beauty. The ergonomics are just right and the shift is smooth and quick, it even self trims the front mech so it doesn't rub on the chain! We are also a Shimano Di2 test center give us a call on 01228 523142 for more info.

Buff

A Buff is a tube of material that comes in various patterns and colours. A very versatile garment the Buff can be used for warmth in the winter when worn under your helmet or around the neck. In the summer they are great for keeping the sun off your neck or again worn under the helmet as a sweatband. Joe has a worryingly large collection!!!

New Hope Technology Products, fitted and tested!

Hello all we recently got the new hope chainrings and bash guard. I I was the lucky one to test it.
I am running a single speed setup but this ring is ideal for and 1x9 or 1x10 as well. It's about a fifth of the weight of my old one and looks AWESOME! The laser etched design is a very nice touch. All that said I am a very big fan of this setup after using it. 10/10

Just have to wait for the setup used with a front mech.
