Cicerone cycle guide books Cicerone Press: 01539 562069
PUBLISHERS OF outdoors-y literature Cicerone has a number of new guides for mountain bikers. Costing £14.95, three of the highlights now available to bike and book retail cover the Pennine Bridleway, Yorkshire Dales and the popular European region of Chamonix. Each is illustrated with photography, with the first two carrying Ordinance Survey mapping and information on everything from how long you’ll be off-road, the elevation you’ll cover and details of pubs and cafes along the way. The Chamonix guide, which is targeted at all outdoor enthusiasts, even details the locations of lifts and routes up rock faces for the climbers out there.
All come with a tough laminated cover, so each will remain pristine when thrown into rucksacks.
Cube pumps Cube direct: 01905 798692
CUBE HAS a number of new pumps this year, from snug in a backpack hand pumps, through to full-on high pressure floor pumps that wouldn’t be out of place, and more importantly, will last the abuse of workshop use. If you’ve an account with the Dutch bike brand, look out for the HPA pump and the Floor pump. The latter of the two is the lighter unit, at 1,100 grams and comes with the Schrader and presta reverse head that you’d expect. Then there’s the large base- mounted gauge for keeping track of your PSI, of which you can unload 160, during inflation. Look in your catalogue for product number 40408. For customers seeking a new hand pump, Cube
has produced an ever-popular extendable hose unit, capable of hitting 80 PSI. and CNC machined in a tidy blue and black colourway.
Singletrack II glove Endura: 01506 497749
MADE FROM breathable four-way stretch mesh and featuring pre-curved fingers, this pared down performance glove is easy to pull on and off thanks to the elasticated Jacquard cuff with pull-off tab. There’s a double layer of fabric on the palm for
durability, and a silicone overlay provides extra grip. The index finger and fore finger have silicone detailing as well, to ensure safe and precise handling of brake and shift levers. What’s more, the light padding at the heel of the palm takes pressure off the main contact point between hands and bars and reduces trail buzz. Perforations allow for ventilation, so hands don’t get sweaty in the saddle. The new Singletrack II Glove is available in two
colour ways (black with ultramarine details and black and white with green highlights) in sizes small through extra large and retails at £26.99.
Time Trial cranksets Campagnolo: Various distributors
CAMPAGNOLO HAS unveiled a raft of new components for the triathlon and time trial markets. Among the new goods are two cranksets. First up, the Bullet Ultra Crankset (weight 815g) features a full carbon fibre spider, with the shape of the chainring mount designed for maximum aerodynamic efficiency as well as boosting the overall stiffness of the crankset. XPSS is touted as an exclusive design of eight up-shift zones and two down-shift zones of the chainring, with profiled teeth and zones dedicated to upward and downward chain movement for fast and precise shifting. Additionally, the Bora Ultra Crankset (795g)
features XPSS and CULT tech (see above) but also boasts titanium axle and screws with left-handed thread, reducing the overall weight of the crankset by 40 grams. Ultra-Hollow Tech hollow cranks and spider also shave weight off (and maximise weight to stiffness ratio).
