Thinking of upgrading your groupset?
Think no further, we have got you sorted!

Ultegra R8050 Di2 is the next generation of arguably shimano’s most popular groupset.

Shimano aimed to make Ultegra the most adaptable group in the range with a massive variety of chainsets, cassettes.

The rear mech has been completely redesigned, it inherits Shimano’s low-profile Shadow design to allow a wider range of cassettes to help you get up those dreaded climbs.

The new Ultegra crankset has also got a major overhaul, firstly shimano has managed to increase the stiffness and decrease the weight. This is done by using an oversized crank design.

The new crankset also comes in different lengths ranging from 165mm right the way through to 175mm, you can also can choose from 53/39, 52/36, 50/34 and 46/36t chainring combinations.
Cassette options include 11-25,11-28,11-30,12-25,14-28,11-32 cassettes, as well as the new 11-34t cassette (long cage rear mech only).

The redesigned dual pivot brake callipers now accommodate up 28mm tyres and have been designed around 25mm tyres, perfectly suited to our roads.

So if you are looking to rip it up in a race or just go out and enjoy yourself on the bike the new shimano ultegra R8050 Di2 has got you covered.

We are offering this groupset for £1350 including fitting.
This groupset will be fully customisable with the options given.

The true meaning of custom.

Legend IL RE - A piece of the worlds finest titanium craftsmanship on a bike. Legend uses Grade 9 titanium tubing to build the Il Re. This offers a rigid and responsive yet very comfortable frame, perfect for long days in the saddle. Each frame is handbuilt to order for the customers dimensions, and this guarantees the best possible fit. The 'Il Re' Frameset features Marco Bertoletti's signature smooth welds. Welding is performed in an inert gas chamber before each weld is lovingly hand finished until almost invisible.

The desired paint job on this particular frame was matte titanium, but with candy red finishing parts, and black key line decals, again 100% custom and fully in the choice of the customer.

This bike has been finished with the newest DuraAce 9150 Di2 Groupset.

Also on our own handbuilt Filament Winding tubular wheel set built on a Chris King R45 hub set- with ceramic bearings.

There doesn’t get much better than this!

Another set of wheels going out tonight!

This time built with the same Venn Carbon rim but slightly deeper.

The Venn 507 TCC constructed with the same filament winding process- but 50mm deep.

These have been built on Chris King R45 hubs.

We hope you enjoy your new set of wheels Stephen!

06/10/2017

Wow!

Wow- Dara’s New Venn 35 Carbon Clinchers!

Handbuilt with the astonishing Chris King R45 hubset!

The Venn 35 TCC Rim - Venn use unique machine automated winding technology for the highest performing, most consistent carbon fiber composite rims in the market. This process is called filament winding, and this is what makes these rims stand out from your standard. In filament winding a continuous tow of fibers is passed through a bath of resin and wound onto a revolving mandrel by traversing longitudinally along the axis of the rotating mandrel. This may sound extremely confusing- but basically there is no joint to the rim. Filament winding is theoretically the best method for manufacturing carbon fibre rims. All fibers are placed under constant tension, in a single planeand in an optimal geometry that has no sharp bends or kinks. This results in the highest possible strength to weight and stiffness to weight ratios,also meaning better performance and greater durability.

Another special feature with this rim : At Von2 these rims are drilled specifically to provide for the hub being used, using spoke angling. For example the rim would be drilled different when using a Chris King hub, to a DT Swiss hub. This ensures maximal performance with the wheel set. The rims will also be drilled to suit the riders weight. They are available from 20H drilling, right up to 32H drilling. Most carbon rims will not accept heavier riders, but there is no issue whatsoever on these rims.

The Chris King R45 road hubs are some of the most highly sought after components in the bicycle industry being engineering masterpieces and examples of true craftsmanship. Those who have taken them apart and seen how they work often compare the precision and detail to that of the inner workings of a watch. Yet they’re light, strong and easy to service. Available in 11 speed ready freehubs for Campagnolo and Shimano / SRAM groupsets (and a spacer for 10 speed groupsets) in road and 6 bolt disc format.

We would like to wish Dara the very best with his new wheel set!

Handbuilt by Von2 : Chris King R45s on H plus Son SL42 Rim!

These wheels are super strong, yet extremely aerodynamic and ready to race! If you are 100kg plus and looking for the strongest wheels around then you have found them. These wheels have been built on the H plus Son SL42 rim, and we lace them for maximum strength.
Features:

H Plus Son SL42-
The H Plus Son SL42 rim is the original 42mm high rim that took H plus son over a year to develop. The SL42 owes its stiffness and aerodynamics to 42mm profile height, and is manufactured using G609 aluminum alloy which is also 30 percent stronger than the 6061 aluminum alloy used in standard rim manufacture. The SL42 features a machined side wall for use with rim brakes.

Hubs – TheChris King R45 road hubs are some of the most highly sought after components in the bicycle industry being engineering masterpieces and examples of true craftsmanship. Those who have taken them apart and seen how they work often compare the precision and detail to that of the inner workings of a watch. Yet they’re light, strong and easy to service. Available in 11 speed ready freehubs for Campagnolo and Shimano / SRAM groupsets (and a spacer for 10 speed groupsets) in road and 6 bolt disc format.


Spokes and ni***es – we use Sapim Cx Ray black spokes which are light and strong plus a high quality alloy ni**le.

CHRIS KING R45 Gold Hubs built onto latest RYDE Pulse Comp rim. Available now. Read more about rim:

The Pulse Comp rim is the perfect subtle yet trustworthy all around option. A fully tubeless compatible rim with optimized rim well and bead hooks, this rim will be a hit with enthusiasts and racers alike. The unique anodising is a dark matte charcoal color. Unlike highly polished rims that have a glossy finish after anodising, the Pulse rims have a soft muted hue that doesn’t reflect light.This unassuming look is contrasted by the brilliantly eye catching decals, but if you’re chasing that illusive stealthy look the decals can easily be removed. The asymmetric front and rear design allows Ryde to tailor the rims to meet specific criteria, without needless added weight. The rear rim features an Offset design that allows for more even spoke tension. This is especially crucial as hub flanges have been pushed inward to accommodate 11 speed drivetrains. Receiving Ryde’s Internal Dimpling process during manufacturing to alleviate spoke fatigue at the ni**le, the Pulse Comp will provide every rider with a dependable and steadfast wheel for countless miles. For riders in search of an aluminum clincher rim that is light enough to pedal all day, while simultaneously possessing the durability to withstand the abuse of the toughest rides, the Pulse Comp is the perfect choice.Please note that Symmetrical rims are designed for front wheel use while Offset rims are intended to be used for rear wheel builds.
