Something strange is going on! The entire bike industry has descended on the small industrial town of Friedrichshafen, on the shore of Lake Constance. With 14 huge halls filled with every conceivable bike product, EUROBIKE 2016 is the place to be if you love bikes.
Endura release new MT500 helmet
In partnership with Koroyd, Endura have developed a new helmet that takes breathability to the next level. The heart of the helmet is the 3D formed Koroyd inserts offering full coverage, without sacrificing breathability. The helmet will be available in 2017 and is expected to cost £129.99/€159.99 | endurasport.com
Honestly named products from Douchebags
Anyone who has dragged a heavy bag through an airport will have probably uttered these names before, but new uber-cool Scandinavian company Douchebags are the first company to commit to the honest naming. The roller bags can be clipped together with the smaller backpacks and feature easy access to the 60 or 90L of contents. The bags retail for €219 and €229 respectively. | douchebags.com
Flaer Chain Oiler
Although not strictly an MTB product – although we hear one is on the way – the team behind the Flaer chain oiler were boasting efficiency gains of up to 12 Watts using their automatic chain oiler. The device now features smaller diameter hoses to allow it to be routed easily through internal routing, and can dispense oil in one of three preset frequencies. The device should ensure you chain is always working at its best.
ION RASCAL and RAID_AMP Shoes
We had an exclusive closer look at both of the new ION shoes, the RASCAL and RAID_AMP, before they were officially presented at eurobike. Both shoes will be available in spring 2017, the RASCAL will cost €139.95 and the RAID_AMP will have a €119 pricetag. | ion-products.com
