We have some spanky new stock in store that we’ve been dying show off for a while, so here it is: from leatherheads Brooks saddles, to steal crushing Surly bikes and tarpaulin teamsters Ortlieb Bags.
Brooks
Now Brooks is the type of brand that you always want but never get round to buying. It comes across as a brand that aims only to the tweed wearing pipe smoking history teacher we all had in school, but in reality it’s not just for the boutique bicycle world but for everyone who loves comfort and high quality. I’ve had a few Brooks saddles for over a decade and personally would never buy another saddle; once you go Brooks you don’t go back. One of their most popular styles the B17 comes in lots of colours but the aged, honey and brown are probably the more popular ( and what we have right now in stock). Brooks are extremely comfortable for touring, commuting or anything but do take a while to break in. That said, once you got your bum groove worked into the leather you can expect a comfy saddle ride for years and years.
Saddles start from €100.
We have plenty of B17 in stock along with grips and bar tape that adds a little decadence to your humble steed.
Surly
Brooks and Surly are the type of brands that go well together. Both are high quality, strong and robust against slips and spills. The Surly Steamroller frame has been mainstay frame to cycle couriers all over the world since it appeared over a decade ago and is still going strong. It’s pretty much the type of bike frame you can treat really badly and will still love you back no matter what. Along with the track frames Surly are famous for their touring bikes and commuting bikes with the Straggler and the Long Haul Trucker being their most famed. A no nonsense high quality and long life brand, your Surly is probably going be around longer than you are.
Frames only start €499.
Back packs
Ortlieb
Probably not the easiest bag company brand to pronounce but these German made bags with 5 year warranty are one of the most super strength and durable bags out there. The company produce all types of bags including panniers, backpacks, rucksacks, messenger bags, accessories and even have a cool urban line for the boutique cyclists too. The bags come with insane waterproof quality that come with specially bonded seams and zippers that score huge points when compared to waterproof camping equipment. Perfect for touring but also with their urban line ideal for those who need to get laptops and other delicate goods in and out of the office without fear that the next puddle will be their last. Prices start from €80.
Panniers
We have tons of the above stocked in store in loads of different styles but if you’re looking for something not listed here than give us a call and we’ll see what we can do.
Happy Cycling…
