16.01.2022 Shready Awards product of the year. Cush Core inner tyre suspension system. Ive been testing these out in my own rig and Im impressed!... They stabilize your tyres at lower pressure, make pinch flats and tyre burps virtually impossible. As a bonus they protect your rims from bottom out on that unexpected rock. Ive got stock of 27.5" and 29". They come as a pair but if youre just a rear wheel basher Im happy to sell them as a single #velomech #bicyclemechanic #cushcore #setyourinnerbasherfree #rideitlikeyoustoleit

04.01.2022 New product coming soon to Velo Mech.. I had heard good things about this Henty Enduro 2.0 riding pack and got to try for myself on my recent trip to Victoria.... To put it simply, Im impressed enough to start stocking them so others can also experience this well designed pack.

02.01.2022 Liteville doing some marketing is quite a rare thing as they run by the philosophy, "make a great product and those in the know will come" Worth a read if you're looking for an amazing bike. If you're not into a long read I just bought my second 301 #velomechapproved Nothing was wrong with the old rig, not even a single link bearing. (2 years of solid use)... Also great if you're excessively tall #XXL https://m.pinkbike.com//review-liteville-301-mk15-enduro.h
