Fancy a ride with Cipollini
This April the Cipollini Grand Fondu hits the UK for 200 lucky people. This event will involve a sit down meal on the 21st April followed by an interview with the man himself. The following morning we will depart on a 70 mile ride through some fantastic scenery and lovely climbs to wake us all up. This will not be like a standard U.K sportive there will be motorcycle support, two very nice food stops a chat with the Lion King as he cruises through the field and a Cipo jersey at the finish. And if you take to much of a liking to the cakes at the food stops the broom wagon will catch you at the back.
Some details are still to be finalised so keep an eye here for up to date information or follow us on Facebook and Twitter for updates as we get them. Anyone who purchases or orders a Cipollini bicycle or frame-set between now and April the 1st will receive free entry to this event via ourselves but dont hang around as this ride will sell out very quickly.
Please contact us for full details.

Campagnolo EPS has arrived
After 20 years of trial and error Campagnolo one of the most famous names in cycling components has released it’s first true production electronic groupset. The EPS system (electric power shift) has been under the microscope and leaked in the press over the last 2 years as it neared completion and Campagnolo are now happy with the end product and that it meets all of their requirements in reliability, looks and performance. First impressions are also great after the crew at Bicycle took a day out to try the system for themselves. The shift is fast and smooth with a very positive feel to the shift lever and thumb trigger. You can view battery charge level and enter adjustment mode without taking your hands off the hoods, there is a multi shift on offer as well as single gear and even a ride home mode if you should ever be unlucky enough to get caught out by a flat battery. This is an incredible groupset of typical campy standard, pop in for more info or give us a call.
Cannondale and Evolution
Well Cannondale have stayed true to their word and delivered us the 2012 Evo early. In store and receiving huge attention at present is the SRAM red model and although it is the entry level Evo it is one light bicycle. There are 5 models in total with the Evo ultimate at the top of the list weighing in at an incredible 4.95kg for a complete bike. One question we put to Cannondale is why the EVO doesn’t have the aero look about it that everyone else seems to be doing and quite simply it’s because anyone can make a fast LOOKING frame but we pride ourselves on making a frame that PERFORMS and DELIVERS when you need it to. For a closer look at the bike that has everyone talking pop in to the store or for information on pricing and spec’s just drop us a line.
