    Last week’s London Bike Show saw the unveiling of a unique project between TORQ and Wilier. As sponsors of TORQ’s Triathlon team, Wilier have supplied the athletes with frames for the 2012 season, but the livery is quite unique. There are only 8 of these baby’s in the world...

    The Italians have styled this slippery TT frame beautifully as you’d expect, but the attention to detail on the TORQ livery is second to none.

    Sally Bigham approached TORQ in 2008, inquisitive that she may have the potential to be a much better Mountain Biker if she understood some training and nutritional fundamentals. She’d had a torrid time up to that point, but now in retrospect it transpires that not only was she underperforming, but she was actually ‘severely’ underperforming. Since Sally approached us, she has gone from strength to strength and has taken huge leaps forwards in performance.

    The Nepalese National MTB Champion, Ajay Pandit Chhetri managed to turn quite a few heads with his flyweight build, effortless climbing style and enigmatic smile. At 48 kilos he is the lightest male rider we have worked with over at TORQ HQ. Based in Kathmandu the 23 year old has ridden some of the highest peaks in the world, and ridden to victory twice in the infamous stage race the Yak Attack based in the Himalayas. He has had some great support from certain UK based riders, and also the organiser of the Yak Attack who is based in the same village as TORQ.
