The Singletrack bar caps have touched down. Made by the guys over at Straitline Components. Online in the STW Shop shortly - only available to our lovely Subscribers.
Buying and wearing our sustainable merch is another great way to support Singletrack
Giro Atmos with "interesting" colouring upon its rear.Bontrager's new range of shoes have arrived in the UK.
Â
Piing! clip-on bell from Zefal. We like little things like this just as much as the big toys.
Â
Shimano XT Rapidfires for Benji's Cannondale Prophet. Hopefully they'll sit next to Hope Tech V2 levers better than Sram triggers.
Â
Ashima are a new name to these shores. Started by an Englishman in the Far East. Here's their lightweight rotor and dual compound SOS disc pads (sintered-organic-sintered - geddit?)
Â
Bontrager are now doing Slime-filled tubes. Quite hefty things they are as well.
Â
Prologo Vertigo Max complete with Union Jack motif (it's also been embroidered with "Singletrack" on the rear - thanks chaps!)
yee ha! I want a bar top please! when will they be on the shop?

those Ashima look interesting, do they do 200’s?
can’t work out if the dual compound is a particularly good idea though?
any blue bar ends?
Bar end caps will become available after the issue 48 has come out ( March 2nd) and will be available to subscribers only to begin with as there are only 24 pairs available. Get in line now 🙂
Bar end caps available in black/blue/red/white.
MrNutt – Yep, we have a pair of Ashima rotors in 180mm and 203mm on test.
that picture of the box of bontrager tubes is piss-poor.
C- lazy, must do better.
I actually thought I’d deleted that one :-/
mmm ok, consider the line joined! (white or blue if available) oh and if you’re stuck for someone to test those 203 rotors! 😉 😆
look forward to hearing reviews on those Ashima pads. interesting combo of compounds.
An Englishman making aftermarket brake pads in the far East. What could possibly go wrong? 😉
Well it’s nice to know I wasn’t the only one who found a top-out clunk with their Thor…
I’ve been running the 203mm Ashima rotors for a few months now, (edinburghbicycle have had them in stock for a while :)) I popped them on my DH wheels – cos they needed some rotors.
They are excellent, in a word. They clear brilliantly in mud, and the bite is, I reckon, better than the standard Hope floating rotors on the Mono M4. They’re lighter as well, IIRC.
Slime filled tubes – how hefty (in grammes) is “hefty” please?
those shades would be a perfect colour for my bike, but in general im wondering people would prefur ‘go- faster’ ‘red’ ?
i run slim tubes on both bikes now for over a year, not 1 flat yet so a big thumbs up from me. only down side choose your pressure right as letting air out gets you all mucky
Dibs for bar ends please… gold if poss………..
Anybody can order custom laser etched bar caps from Straitline, lots of colours avaiable too. why anybody would be frothing over STW ones is beyond me? Design yer own!!!
