Trialtech

In September the Trialtech team were in Antwerp to compete in the final round of the UCI Trials World Cup, organised by team rider Kenny Belaey, and we went along with Mark Westlake to film them in action. Part 1 of our two-part Trialtech in Antwerp video is out now and features Rick Koekoek, Vasek Kolar and Extreme Bike Sports riders Dominik Oswald and Thomas and Matthias Mrohs riding in the 20" and 26" Quarter Finals, Semi Finals and Finals. Join the rest of the team in Part 2, coming soon!

The Trialtech Sport Lite forks are our new 100% exclusive, lightweight, competition style forks. They've been used and tested by team riders Kenny Belaey, TRA, Vašek Kolář, Flipp, Neil Tunnicliffe and World Cup regular Andrei Burton, so you can be sure that they're light enough for competition use but durable enough for general trials riding. Available in 20" and 26", with disc or 4-bolt mounts. Head over to our forks page for more photos, information and technical specifications.

Our Sport Lite rims now also come in a 24" version. Available in 32 hole only, in both front and rear versions, black or silver with ultra-high quality, laser-etched logos. The rear rim has a 48mm profile and weighs in at 564g, while the front is 38mm wide and weighs just 537g. More info on our website: Trialtech.co.uk

Beaten to it by Mark to some extent, but here's a picture of the non-drive side crank/BB interface. We think it looks pretty classy!

We're very pleased to announce the latest additions to our range of SL parts - the SL Ti ISIS Bottom Bracket and the SL Forged 7050 ISIS Cranks! Exclusively designed and developed by us and tested by top riders including Kenny Belaey, Rick Koekoek and even Neil Tunnicliffe, these brand new products are extremely lightweight and reliable! The SL bottom bracket has an ultra-lightweight internally butted 6Al-4V Ti axle and lightweight 6061 Aluminium shell and comes with custom silver anodised tapered crank spacers, CNC 7075 Alu crank bolts and a custom CNC plated cr-moly assembly bolt. With a silver anodised finish and understated SL logos and weighing in at just 179g (without crank bolts) it is a great product for anyone wanting to save weight on their bike without compromising strength and reliability. Forged from high-quality 7050 Aluminium, the SL cranks' multi-stage forging allows a design that is super light yet stiff and strong. The wide threaded section on the right-hand crank arm allows the use of a front freewheel or threaded sprocket and a bashring, and the ISIS interface fits all standard ISIS BBs. Available in 165mm (439g), 170mm (449g) and 175mm (455g) lengths. Both of these great new products are available from Trialtech dealers now!

The winner of the Trialtech Sport Snail Cam giveaway is Julien Parent, who correctly guessed that there are 38 notches on the Sport Lite cam and 108 notches on the Sport HD cam. We have contacted him for his details and will send out his choice of cams this week. Congratulations Julien!

We've wanted to produce a snail cam tensioner that improved on those that are currently available for a while now, so we are extremely pleased to announce the release of the Trialtech Sport Snail Cam tensioners! CNC machined from cr-moly (HD) and aluminium (Lite) and sold individually to allow you to tailor your setup to your own specific needs. To celebrate their release, and as it's nearly Christmas, we're offering one of you the chance to win a pair (1x HD, 1x Lite) of these fantastic new tensioners. All you have to do is guess the number of notches on each of the cams, then head over to our Facebook page and leave your guess in a comment below the picture, e.g. Lite - 18 notches / HD - 30 notches. If you don't have a Facebook account, you can leave your guess in this thread and we'll include it with the other entries. We'll pick a winner at random from all of the correct entries at 12:00 GMT on Wednesday 19th December. In the event that no one guesses correctly, closest answer wins!
