Tech developments move swiftly - a fresh gravel bike from Onguza, updated Oakley's, and numerous tire technologies to assist you in your weekend escapades
In the world of cycling, new gear is always exciting, and we have some exciting announcements to share. From innovative helmets to compact electric bike pumps, here's a roundup of the latest additions to your cycling arsenal.
First off, Oakley has released two new models of sunglasses specifically designed for cyclists: the Stunt Wing and the Stunt Devil. Both models feature Prizm lenses for enhanced contrast and detail, perfect for those long bike rides. The Stunt Wing uses HyperGrip Ultra technology for a secure fit, while the Stunt Devil boasts HyperGrip webbing, inspired by the shape and gripping prowess of a frog's foot, ensuring minimal movement.
Moving on to helmets, Rudy Project has introduced the Sinergy. This lightweight helmet, weighing just 250g for a S/M size, offers 11 ventilation channels, removable and washable inner pads, and Rudy Project's RSR adjustment system for a comfortable and secure fit. Plus, it's made from over 60% recyclable materials as part of Rudy Project's Ride to Zero initiative.
For those seeking a customizable gravel bike, look no further than the Onguza Bliksem. Hand-mitred and fillet brazed using a blend of Columbus Life and Zona tubing, the Bliksem offers 18 frame colours and 10 graphics to choose from. Customers can also select from three different cable routing options and additional bosses for bottles and bags. The Bliksem features a T47 bottom bracket, stainless steel flat mount bosses, and touch points for durability. Framesets for the Onguza Bliksem start at $3,032 / £2,490, including shipping, duties, and taxes.
Lastly, Dynamic Bike Care has launched two compact electric bike pumps, the Turblo and Turblo+. The Turblo weighs only 115 grams, making it lightweight and suitable for top-ups and emergencies. The Turblo+, on the other hand, runs on a larger 2000 mAh battery, allowing it to inflate up to 10 bar or 145psi, with enough electricity to inflate ten road bike tyres on a single charge. Both electric bike pumps are available for pre-order from September 4th on dynamicbikecare.com, with availability starting from September 18th.
In addition, Vittoria has updated its cyclocross tyre lineup, including the Terreno T10 Hardpack, T30, T80, and T90 for various terrains. The company has also introduced the Vittoria AirLiner insert, designed to accompany the folding, hookless-compatible TLR options, providing impact protection and lateral stability.
The founder of the company Onguza is Jonathan Njogu, a cycling enthusiast with a vision to create high-quality, customizable gravel bikes. With the introduction of the Onguza Bliksem, it's clear that he's well on his way to achieving that goal.
So, there you have it—a roundup of the latest cycling gear to hit the market. Whether you're a road cyclist, a gravel enthusiast, or a cyclocross racer, there's something here for everyone. Happy cycling!
