New bike day for Luke! 🎉

Fresh out of the box and built up in-store, this is Luke’s brand new Scott Spark RC.

The Spark RC is Scott Sports New Zealand race-bred cross country machine, lightweight, efficient, and built to fly up the climbs without giving up confidence on the way back down.

Massive congrats Luke, enjoy every ride on it 🚴

That’s a wrap on Cyclocross season! 🏁

What a way to finish! We had such a huge turnout last werkend. Swipe through for some of our favourite moments from the final round.

A massive thank you to everyone who came out to race, spectate, and support all season long.

The all-new Scott Strike is here. ⚡

Scott's next-generation eMTB trail bike has just been unveiled, built for riders who want to explore further with less fatigue. Comfortable riding position, intuitive handling, and that versatile trail character Strike has always been known for, now taken to the next level.

Safe to say it's going straight on a few wish lists. And with Christmas only 4 months away… just saying. 👀🎄

New in: the Minion DHX. 🔥

Built off years of World Cup downhill racing, developed directly with Maxxis' top athletes, and paired with their brand-new DH Casing for serious support and control on steep, fast, gnarly tracks.

Kiwi riders who've already put it through its paces are calling it a new favourite, praising the grip and confidence it holds across everything from hardpack to loam to mud.

If your current tyre is holding you back on the descents, this is worth a look.

Finding your crew just got a whole lot easier!

RideHB, is a local hub that brings every group ride in the bay into one place. No more juggling five Facebook groups, three WhatsApp threads, and trying to remember which Strava club still meets on Sundays.

You can also add and manage your own group’s details, update start times, drop in your Strava route, and flag any hazards riders should know about.

Winter's tough on bikes. How is yours holding up? 🔧

Mud, grit, and wet rides all take a toll, especially on your drivetrain, brakes, and bearings. A few signs it's time to book your bike in:

▪ Chain feels rough, noisy, or skips under load
▪ Brakes squeal or feel less sharp than usual
▪ Grinding or crunching in the headset, bottom bracket, or wheels
▪ Rust starting to show on bolts or chain links

If you leave it too long, small issues turn into expensive ones. Our team can give your bike a proper once-over: clean, l**e, and check everything from brakes to bearings, so you're not caught out mid-ride.

Book your winter service today and keep riding through the cold with confidence.

Had the best day out in Tikokino on Saturday, watching some of our favourite Pedal Power fam (Tilly & Rico) hit the track 🏁

Massive shout out to Tilly, tearing it up at her very first race day at just 4 years old! So proud of you, superstar 🙌🏼

Love getting out to support our local riders on two wheels.
