When a £3,000 carbon bike goes wrong, you would expect the manufacturer to stand behind it. That was not the case here. This Canyon Ultimate CF SLX arrived after Canyon refused a warranty claim. The owner had gone through several bottom brackets in just a couple of years and on the last replacement spotted a…
Right then, pull up a pew and prepare to be utterly dazzled. I was recently blessed with the arrival of a Wilier Triestina frame, a true masterpiece of modern engineering, sent in by some lucky chap whose bottom bracket was merely “experiencing a minor hiccup.” Yes, in the same way that a torrential downpour in…
“This review dives into the Lightcarbon LCR017D, a frame that stands out for its focus on quality assurance. Unlike most frames where QA/QC is often overlooked or assumed, this one was specifically chosen with those standards in mind, setting it apart from typical off-the-shelf options.”

Time was originally a French manufacturer, following it’s sale by Rossignol, Time was acquired by the Cardinal Cycling Group. It remains one of the few bicycle companies that manufacture their bicycles…
The cycling market is taking a hammering at the moment with a drop in demand, a massive drop in sales and general discontent. I thought it would be a great time for me to expand! More on this will be coming soon! I’ve started making some BSA bottom brackets (30mm and SRAM DUB/AXS) in Titanium….
Introduction I have had a number of cyclists contact me with issues around NTN and SKF bearings being fitted at bike shops and failing within a fairly short period of time. A number of these cyclists have sent me the bearings back to look at and I have found a large number of bearings to…
This bike frame was personally delivered to Hambini HQ by the purchaser who lived in Boston, MA, USA. He had flown to Italy to pick up his dream bike frame and then onto Manchester to get a Hambini bottom bracket custom fitted to his bike frame.
