Clif Bar

In 1990 Gary Erickson decided he could make a better energy bar than the ones available. And he did. In his mom's kitchen. To this day, Clif Bars taste deliciously home baked; not least because Gary is still the owner of Clif Bar. But perhaps the most impressive thing about Clif Bar is their commitment to people, to community, and to environment. It's a truly ethical company - with a truly tasty natural product. Come and taste all the flavours, Black Cherry Almond, Carrot Cake, Chocolate Chip, Cool Mint Chocolate, Crunchy Peanut Butter and Oatmeal Raisin Walnut, you will not be disappointed.

The Shot Bloks - an electrolyte chew - will be available for tasting too.

Crank Brothers

Crank Brothers are one of the most innovative companies in cycling. Since their inception, they have taken all we knew about tool, pump and pedal design and turned it upside down to create truly unique products. Their innovation is always backed up with sound engineering and loads of style that make them stand out in any crowd. CoreBike will be a great opportunity to see the new Wheelsets, Headsets and Joplin seatpost.

Lizard Skins

Lizard Skins started from one very simple, but highly effective product. Since then, the chainstay protector has often been copied, but never improved. Over time, Lizard Skins has added grips, gloves, protective gear and more to its range of products, all designed in consultation with professional riders like our own Steve Peat. Come and see a revolution in bar tape - patented DSP technology heralds a totally new benchmark in bar tape design.

Nema Clothing

Nema invented the mountain bike short... and now they call this their rebirth.

For 2008 we are going to work with a small group of dealers and develop the Nema brand in the UK. No big advertising spend, just honest toil. We want people to ride the product and help us spread the word. We are looking for feedback so that we can pass this onto Erick, who owns Nema, so that he can ensure that the product is as good as it can be and what the rider is looking for.

NiteRider

Since 1989, NiteRider have been committed to producing the best technical lighting systems available. The market leader in the USA, they constantly light the way forward in design and innovation. From their fully waterproof commuter lights to their range topping TriNewt 3 LED systems, NiteRider is taking the world by storm with their combination of light weight, exceptional design and searingly bright light.

Also on show will be the New Minewt Mini USB and Mini USB Plus - awesome power from one of the smallest and lightest lightsets on the market

Pinhead

Pinhead Components inc was formed in 1997 to develop an effective locking system for bicycle components. At that Time, there were many kinds of bicycle frame locks, but there was no effective component locking system designed to protect the bike's individual components from theft.

So they created one.

Pinhead's internationally patented locking system gives bicycle owners effective, affordable, protection from the growing problem of bicycle component theft.
