    Just two Team bikes left, and guess what? They are the ones with the best spec!!!! Can you believe it, two top of the range 2006 Kona steeds with only 6months use, here ready and waiting. All the Kula Primo’s went like hot cakes, or even yule-tide logs, but you still have a chance to pick up a serious end of season bargain with one of these two great bikes (or even both if you like!). We’ve even dropped the bikes to a special festive price!

    The end of another season is here and what a season it has been for the TORQ/KONA Team. We now have all the team bikes back from our riders and they are up for grabs at very competitive prices. All of these bikes have only been used from March to September 2006, so in effect have only had 6-7 months use. They have not been used during the winter or for hundreds of miles of training hence the excellent condition and performance of the components. Most of the riders customised certain parts of the bikes such as headsets, wheels, forks etc. then re-fitted the unused original parts for resale. There are five bikes up for sale, 3 Kula Primo’s (HT), 1 Kula Supreme (HT) and 1 King Supreme (FS).

    The Kula Primo is a World Cup Cross Country racing hardtail made with Easton Ultralite tubing. Also ridden by the Kona Les Gets Factory team, the Kula Primo has been tested and refined (and ultimately raced) by the fastest racers in the world. The Specification includes full XT mechs. FSA wheelsets, Easton EA50 Bars/stem/post, Race Face Deus chainsets and Hayes carbon HFX9 brakes. A full bike spec. can be viewed at Kona Bikes UK

    Gelbot is an ingenious device. It's a wide-mouthed drinks bottle that also carries an integral shot of gel…

    Just a quickie! We thought it might be an appropriate time to brag about the 2006 Tour De France winner’s back wheel. Yes, this is a photo of Floyd Landis’ bike and yes he does use a Powertap SL hub

    The Triathlon Cycling Running exhibition at Sandown park on the weekend of 12/13th February is rapidly approaching and I think to say we’ll be exhibiting some ‘new stuff’ is a bit of an understatement…

    First of all, there’s our 2 brand new TORQ bars. So new in fact, that the Triathlon Cycling Running exhibition will represent their maiden voyage so to speak. With the same moist and chewy texture as TORQ bars 1 & 2, the new bars (TORQ bars 3 & 4) once again contain a high proportion of fairly traded fruit and are suitable for vegetarians.
