A little while between posts as things have been rather busy getting new prototypes in and sorting out everything for my stand at the London Cycle Show which was held last weekend. The show itself went very well with many people making favourable comments on the bikes. A few sales have come from the show directly and we also picked up a couple of new distributors, more on that shortly. We had a nice little spot, possibly one of the smallest stands at the show but located right alongside the BMX display. So whenever that happened we'd be swamped by a horde of people shortly thereafter.

The Peregrines certainly attracted the most attention over the course of the show, though there was also a suspicious patch of drool left in front of the Ti Pegasus sample as below.


A huge thanks to Adam for helping out on the stand, giving up a weekend on which we saw possibly the last sunny weather of the year. Also to Steve for bringing to reality my very vague conception of what the stand would look like. Can't forget Andy either, who pulled together some lovely looking product sheets at the final hour.

Just in the nick of time the final prototypes of the Gryphon arrived in some smaller sizes. They're looking really fantastic and judging from the reception both they and the 26/69 Hummingbird received both will be going in to production shortly.

Thanks to singletrackworld.com for the pics, none of the ones I took turned out to well...
