Sefton Sprints

Another northern event for the diary - this one up in Liverpool. Group 3 lap races to qualify for a single lap sprint.

Check out the MCG blog or facebook for more info...

Superb Sprint

The Sprint frameset from Superb is definitely eye catching. You don't spot a huge amount of aluminium frames with smooth welds these days. The classic Cannondale track has definitely inspired this design with the oversized tubing. A great deal at only $599 for the frame and $100 extra for the fork.

Pretty nice idea - taking cyclocross to the non-elite...

Kirschner Brasil

Firstly, happy new year and apologies for the lack of posts - a little slackness but also a break with next to no internet access.

I thought this feature on Brazilian brand Kirschner was a good start to the year - nothing better than a little bikes and typography. See the full feature on the MadeBySix site - some other real nice projects up on there too.

Follow Kirschner on twitter and view the short video here.

1.61 Hip Pouch

There are a fair number of hip pouches on the market and these ones from one man operation 1.61 look pretty good. Cordura nylon with all the usual loops and pouches and leather logo trim.

Check out the full spec and get yours here...
