2 Carbon Wasp Truffle
Carbon Wasp has launched its new 29er trail bike, featuring 120mm rear travel and a carbon frame hand built in England.
The Carbon Wasp Truffle is designed to be a combination XC/ trail bike, with a lightweight frame and modern geometry, to be strong on both the uphills and the descents. The Truffle has taken three years
to develop and to establish the supply chains, with the frame made from pre-preg carbon fibre (already impregnated with resin) sourced in the UK, and painted locally. Fully sealed cartridge bearings
have been included to tough out the British weather, while the dropouts are a flex pivot system to reduce weight. The Truffle also includes
downtube storage, clearance for a dropper posts, chain guide mounts and a BSA threaded BB shell. There is also full internal cable routing, and
a Boost 148mm rear axle, all coming with a five-year repair or replace warranty. In terms of geometry, the large
size frame has a 480mm reach, 65.5 degree head angle and 440mm chainstays. RRP: Frame and Cane Creek DB Air Shock available worldwide for £2,800, or just the frame for £2,400
3 Raleigh Centros e-bikes
Raleigh has announced the launch of its new and improved Centros e-bike range. For 2022, Raleigh has introduced
a new and bigger Bosch Powertube battery to sit alongside the Bosch Performance Line Motor. The new model provides a 625WH of electric assistance. A Purion Display lets riders
switch between four different modes. The handlebar-handy unit
also gives riders eyes on their speed, battery life and remaining range. Also new in 2022 is the
introduction of a Modular Rail System. Situated in the inside of the top and down tubes, the Centros’ MRS allows users to switch between accessories like the range extender, as well as Fidlock magnetic bottle, bike packing bags, and locks. Switching from 700c to 650B wheels, the new Centros models offer additional control and comfort on off-road trails. The Raleigh Centros electric bike also comes kitted out with full SKS mudguards, a Racktime rear carrier, integrated rear light, built-in rear-wheel lock and kickstand as standard. Raleigh also continues to use Shimano gearing on both models, using an Altus nine-speed system on the rear derailleur model, and a Nexus eight-speed on the hub gear. RRP: From £2,999 to £3,099
