Custom Van Nicholas Amazon

After a recent batch of Van Nicholas orders, I thought we could share this one. 

Custom spec'd as part of a pair, the gents Amazon is derailier geared with a drop bar and the ladies was Rohloff geared with a flat bar. 

Blue was the theme. 

Custom wheels, hand built by Kevin. It's been a busy week for wheel builds, 3 pairs of wheels and 2 individual re-rim jobs. 

Nice metallic bar tape from Fizik

More blue from Hope and Brooks

Sporting TRP Spyre brakes

Dual piston mechanical disc brakes for road with MTB versions coming soon. 

Custom build season has already started. Check back soon to check out a rather tidy Salsa build. 

Custom Built MTB Tourer

Going to keep this one simple, another custom built beauty. 

Lee Cooper has taken Kevin's drawings and made them reality once again and doesn't it just look great. 

It's exciting to see the finished project and the paint choice on this one is stunning in the sunlight. 

You all know by now that all you need to do is come in and see us for more information on custom builds and frame building from Lee.

No.1 Window Display

We have been thinking about the new window display heading towards the Jubilee weekend for some time now. But we never imagined it could look this good. 

Many thanks to Shannon Cree from Headmasters (also on Clemens Street). This display now looks awesome!

As you well know we have 2 windows and the other one is in progress but why not come down and have a look at the vintage themed window display.

Items in the window included items from Pashley, Brompton, Raleigh and Brooks.

This model is a stunner with Brooks saddle, grips and basket. I also like the green, works well in my opinion.

Check out the website and let us know what you think. There are also Tandem and Electric models. This is my kinda company!

I Love Brooks!

I just love Brooks products!

I am the proud owner of numerous Brooks items including these :-)

I must say the Team Pro Vans LTD Edition is my favorite but everything from the standard black B17 to the  Brixton Bag is amazing quality! Pictured above are the Team Pro and my newest addition, the blue B17 (of which we can order if you are interested...).

We have a large range of Brooks items in stock at all times. We have a great range of popular saddles and we also keep the accessories like the trouser straps, mud flaps, maintenance kits and toe straps for example. 

We can get all of the Brook product range so give us a call and we can see if its in stock! Pop down to see what we have in store too! There is a lot to see!

They look super cool and look comfy actually.

I would like to be stocking wooden components in a few months so keep checking back!

What Are Your Favorite Cycles Accessories?

I have found some rather nice accessories for cycles recently and it seems the growing love for cycling and cycles themselves find the market expanding for such add-ons. Not only are cyclists wanting gloves and bottles for example but riders now want leather gloves and wooden baskets for carrying drinks.

Small can (no idea what to carry but looks great and I think I want one..)

Leather Saddle, Grips and Gloves

Wooden Basket

Brooks Basket: http://www.brooksengland.com/catalogue-and-shop/bags/Cycle%20Bags%20&%20Accoutrements/HOXTON%20Wire%20Basket/

(Brooks Basket can also be ordered in store via us or email info@kineticrush.co.uk for more details)

These accessories are great and I can only hope that there will be an endless want and need for quality cycles parts and accessories. 

Brands like Brooks, Pashley and Carradice can be found on our website www.kineticrush.co.uk
