Hi everyone! This weeks Snapshot Sunday is a first look at the new Kona HeiHei Race DL 29. The 2017 HeiHei features full carbon frame that weighs in at around 1800g (size M) and features the Fuse Independent Suspension design, eliminating the need for a pivot at the chainstay seatstay. The bike continues to feature a low standover with SRAM Centerline / GX / Guide components and Maxxis Maxlite 29 Tyres. The suspension setup is 100mm front and rear with the RockShox Monarch RL and Reba RL.
This HeiHei joins the race line mid range, and is ready to handle anything from technical XC courses to the local trails. One benefit that is extremely basic yet super important for most riders is frame space for a bottle cage, by comparison with the Process range which only allows a bottle under the frame. This bike will be Thomas's training bike in the coming months, and I am looking forward to seeing more of this years 2017 Kona range especially the other HeiHei Trail and Race bikes. More soon!

Hi everyone! This weeks #snapshotsunday is some fresh shots of the new 2017 Five Ten Hellcat Pro in Pink. I took these shots a few weeks ago and I thought the same week as Eurobike would be a good opportunity to share them.
The shoes feature the same popular stealth sole, however the sole design is completely new, with the recess for the cleat being ofset to provide riders with a wider stance on the bike and so increased stability. The upper material looks durable and weather resistant, with the laces and velcro combination to keep feet secure. This weekend was Scottish Champs Enduro and lots of photos to edit - more soon! Hi everyone! Today is the release date for the new colour Ride It jersey from their ever popular women's range. Falling alongside their existing Purple and Mint options, this jersey in Pink is made of the same high quality and durable material, with the mesh underarm material to help in these warmer summer days. The jersey has also retained their unique detail of the lens cleaner for glasses (and cameras!) in addition to a side zip pocket which is big enough to fit an iPhone 6.
Head over to RideIt now to take a look at their full range (and see me featured in their women's clothing section!). More soon! |
