FIX AND NOOKIE Fix Distribution has added Nookie Bikes to its portfolio of bike and components brands, with stock now available. For 2014 there are four complete bike builds in the range, all built around a super-clean and dialled, 100 per cent cromo hardtail frame. Prices range from £529.99 for the base-spec'd, rigid forked Rogue 4, up to the top end Rogue 1 at £1,199.99, with top-drawer parts throughout. The mid-range Rogue 2 and 3 models at £849.99 and £649.99, respectively. All the bikes are built with a mixture of Nookie, Halo and Gusset components. Bikes are due to land on these shores


around the end of April, but Fix is already taking pre-orders. See fixdistribution.com for prices and pre orders on 07974 198664.


EXTRA AND CRANK BROTHERS Revealed just prior to Core Bike, Extra has become the source for all Crank Brothers goods going forwards. Extra UK has partnered with the Selle


Royal Group for many years and the synergies already in place led to the inking of the new deal. Extra UK replaces 2pure who has


distributed Crank Brothers for many years. The former distributor was praised for its contribution to the growth of the brand. 01933 672170


MADISON AND BLISS Madison has taken on exclusive distribution in the UK and Ireland of the Bavarian brand Bliss Protection, known for its advanced range of protective gear. The brand will be unveiled at Madison’s


trade-only show iceBike* on February 25th to 27th 2014, with stock becoming available during March. Bliss has pioneered its Armourgel


System (ARG), which forms the basis of much of the Bliss product range. It Armourgel absorbs and dissipates energy,


greatly reducing impact forces transmitted to the body.


The special structure of Armourgel allows the material to absorb 80 per cent of the impact energy and unlike PU or EPS foams, Armourgel can be subjected to multiple impacts onto the same point without being destroyed. www.madisonb2b.co.uk
