New Items - Sinz Riser Bars and KMC Devil 202

It was a bit difficult to find a high quality 3/32" non-chamfered single speed chain for track bikes using 3/32" drive train or single speed mountain bikes. KMC created the D202 Devil chain; sibling to the D101 1/8" version, the 202 should prove to be a high quality 3/32" drive solution.

New riser bars from Sinz just in, alloy straight wall construction, 22.2 clamp, available in a few colors and a reasonable price.

Bike Polo Dual Cable Pull

MKE Bike Polo rider Eric Kremin made good use of the Problem Solvers Cable Doubler. He wanted to have one lever actuate both calipers during his polo matches and this did the trick. He has it setup so the rear locks up before the front for super quick stops and the use of a v-brake noodle on the front caliper allowed him to easily disassemble the front fork for travel. Nice work Eric!

PROFILE True 3/8"

We just received a couple of the new True 3/8th Profile fix/fix hubsets in. 3/8"(10mm) fixing bolt with steel serrated washer to keep you wheel from slippin. They are out of stock of many colors right now, as Profile gets more made, we'll get them in our store for you.

In addition to the hubsets, we received some True 3/8th axle conversion kits to transform your old hubs to the new larger bolt.

Gotta love these hubs!!!

PROTYPE - 68 x 109mm ISO Taper BB!!!

The number one question/email we get is..."Does anyone offer a reasonably priced sealed cartridge bottom bracket for the Sugino 75 track crankset, a true 109mm ISO taper bottom bracket?". The answer for a very long time was unfortunately "no".

Well, after searching high and low (for what seems like a millennium)we found a manufacturer!

Local Products

We've got some new products up from local (or ex-local) companies. Ruckus Components started out up here in Milwaukee before becoming official and heading out to the cycling mecca that is Portland, OR. We're happy to finally have some production versions of their chainguards. We've been testing out prototypes for the past 2+ years and we're excited to be able to share them with customers now. link

We also have some new MBC cycling caps in. While these aren't exactly a new product, our good friends at Cognition up in Madison have come up with a rather Wisconsin themed hat for us. link
