After a nasty crash at Hillingdon on Tuesday this week, dna Cycles Race Team member Chris Cockerton has undergone surgery.

We wish him well and a speedy recovery and hope to see him back on the bike soon.
Remember Chris - Chicks dig scars!

It's been a good year for Giant this year..........

After countless critical acclaim for bikes across their range, 2009 has seen the Giant TCR Advanced win Cycling Plus Bike of the Year and the Giant Defy Advanced picking up the Editor’s Choice Award from the USA’s best selling bike publication, Bicycling.  Now it’s the turn of Giant’s mountain bike range to receive recognition from the cycling press as the Anthem X wins What Mountain Bike’s 2009 Bike of the Year Award!

127 Bikes, 12 Finalists and only 1 winner.......

37 BIKES, 10 TESTERS, 35 DAYS OF INTENSE RIDING AND ONE CYCLING PLUS BIKE OF THE YEAR… THE 2009 GIANT TCR ADVANCED 3!

Cycling Plus have just announced their 2009 bike of the year, the result of one of the most detailed and in depth head-to-head tests ever carried out.  During the extensive testing process 10 Cycling Plus testers spent 35 days riding 37 of the best road bikes on the market and the decision was unanimous; the 2009 Giant TCR Advanced 3 was simply the best bike on offer.

“The Giant is just such a perfectly balanced all-rounder that Cycling Plus has no hesitation in recommending it”

Testers were amazed that a bicycle that offered such blistering performance: stiff, light and responsive enough to race on, was also incredibly comfortable to ride.

“It’s sharp enough to race on, comfortable enough to ride long distances on, puts a smile on your face, inspires confidence. In short, it’s sorted.”

Giant have responded to receiving such a prestigious accolade;

“We are delighted to have been recognised fro the success of the 2009 TCR Advanced; we truly believe that Giant designers and engineers have excelled themselves with the road platform, launched last August.” 

“Our aim is to offer enthusiasts, whatever their level, the complete package – with the TCR advanced 3 we have achieved this. This exciting technology really gives something back by offering a bike that is stiff, light and lightning fast, when we say our frames are hand-made for you, we mean it. Globally, Giant takes great pride in exceeding rider’s needs and are honoured to receive this award.”

The highly praised and extremely fast Schwalbe Ultremo R tyres are now back in stock in Black, Silver, Blue and Yellow.
Stocks are limited (Schwalbe can't keep up with demand) so get in and get 'em quick!

For fans of the Michelin Pro³ Race tyres - another incredible, fast and sticky boot (and my choice at the moment) - you'll be pleased to learn that we've held our prices despite the recent increases....they are currently £5 cheaper than the RRP.

So, get yourself a new set of boots and dance all over the competition!

Summer is on the way at last! To keep you comfortable while you're out riding we have introduced clothing from Gore Bike Wear . The range is massive and caters for casual cyclists right up to serious competitive riders - fabrics are extremely technical without being vastly expensive and easily compare with the likes of Assos and Castelli (but without the associated wallet busting price tags!) - and the designs are classy and simple.

We have chosen products to complement our own technical clothing range and the offerings from Altura and Endura that we also stock. The range we hold will grow over time and if there is anything you need we can order it if we don't have it there and then!

Delivery is expected in the coming few weeks - I'll keep you posted!
We think you'll be impressed.

UPDATE:

Gore Clothing NOW IN!

Just an update to let you know that the Gore summer clothing (Men's and Women's) is now in stock.....check it out!
Our shoe range has also been expanded - choice is good!

Hope you're all enjoying the sun!

Race Team Press Release

Hi

The Online Shop is only in it's infancy so will appear a little barren to begin with! It seemed to make sense to have it up and running regardless for a couple of reasons..... Firstly, if it's not then you can't buy anything at all and secondly, any problems will be relatively small scale to start with and easier to sort out!

I'll be concentrating on the Sale area to start with as quantities are lower and also to make space for the new stuff coming in. If there are items you want but can't see on the site then give us a call and we can process your sale over the phone.

Cheers!
Dave

The SALE continues with at least 20% OFF ALL REMAINING 2008 BIKES and some excellent deals on New-Old-Stock parts and accessories. Hurry.....they won't be around for long!

Hurrah!
