Sickgreen Crosslight Pro6 Here Soon




The Crosslight Pro6 CX frameset for disc-brakes was an instant success, but one request that I heard again and again was “Can we have it in the SickGreen from the Crosslight EVO5?”

So, because we listen to what you want and try to respond with product changes where possible, here it is, the Crosslight Pro6 in the rather lovely metallic ‘SickGreen’!

This is the first sample flown in ahead of the main stock, we should have them in our warehouse by the end of Jan. [This colour will replace the 'Deep Red' as shown on the site at the moment].

New MacAskill Signature products from Lezyne

December 19th 2012 –Lezyne and Danny MacAskill renew their cooperation for another two years. Reason enough for Lezyne to launch its new MacAskill Signature products:

The MacAskill Block Tool and the MacAskill Travel Drive Pump. For a trained bike mechanic like Danny, who now enjoys bike maintenance in his down time, partnering up with the high-grade tool manufacturer Lezyne is a great pleasure.

Danny hit the nail on the head with Lezyne: the quality of their tools and their stylish design are the main reasons, why the Scottish YouTube wonder kid chose to enter into a partnership with Lezyne which started their cooperation in 2012.

A co-operation YouTube-project already well over the million-click benchmark and shows Danny returning to his old work place, a small bike-shop in the city center of Edinburgh, where he tries out his new Lezyne-equipment for the first time

Pivot Mach429 Carbon Test Winner


429C1

This carbon speed machine has taken a smoothly neutral suspension design and bolted it into one of the stiffest 29er frames we’ve ever ridden.
When you add a full all-mountain/future-proofing feature list that includes extensive frame armouring, the result is a super precise, trail tough, high velocity weapon that aggressive riders will love.
Final group test verdict
All bikes on this test score highly, but if we had to pick a favourite frame from the foursome though it would have to be Pivot’s new 429 Carbon.
It’s not heavy, but it’s perfect proof that weight isn’t everything when you’re trading it for proper trail toughness and jaw dropping stiffness. 
Add super controlled suspension and a spot-on handling balance and you’ve got a bike that’ll properly reset your flat-out riding limits.
