It’s back to school in style with our partners Trialprod, who received a large delivery of new products a few days ago from brands such as Echo, Zoo, Gu Tensile et Rockman, which have gradually been added to their site. These new products include the new Echo, Zoo and Gu frames, Echo TR rims and the new freewheels (72, 96 and 108 angagements points) and the new superlight Rockman cranks which we recently featured.
Here’s an overview of all of the new components that have recently been added to the Trialprod catalogue. Top quality products at very low prices!
A few days ago we featured a short article on the new Rockman cranks and they are now available from Trialprod. These superb bits of kit have been forged from high quality 7075 Aluminium and the CNC machined, with an offset designed to avoid contact with HS33 pistons. These cranks are superlight at just 426g for the 175mm version and 420g for the 165mm version and are offered at the more than reasonable price of €99!
The 96 engagement point Tensile freewheel... The classic has been redesigned and improved both visually (a superb combination of black, gold and white) and technically, with 36 more pawls than the previous model! This little beauty has 18 teeth, can be removed using a Shimano BB tool, weighs just 181g and is available for just €59!
The Echo TR 72 Freewheel, has 72 engagements points and six pawls that work in threes. It has a clever feature in that the outer ring is situated on the crank side of the freewheel body (rather than the frame side as with most other freewheels), which means that it cannot come undone. Very interesting! These are available for €44
The new Echo SL 108 Freewheel, has, as the name suggest, 108 engagements points and nine pawls that work in threes, ensuring a very rapid pick-up. Hub’ has opened one of them up in order to show us the robust and reliable mechanism inside. As with the TR model, the outer ring is on the crank side. These are available for just €67!
