Mud Cycles is super proud to help sponsor NZ National CX champ Kim Hamer-Hurst.
We'll be helping her out with mechanical support for the coming season. If you haven't heard of Kim before, you will soon. Capable of ripping the legs off most dudes whilst retaining a smile on her face the whole time.
Have a read of her blog post from last weekends CX race out in Upper Hutt. Kims Blog

Tuesday sifty shop night rides

Sifty Tuesday night shop rides.
EVERY tuesday, not rain, nor snow, nor rampaging postmen will stop us.
Sifty pace, talk and banter pace, race pace only allowed on the downs. Bring your trail bikes or your XC bikes. Trails will depend on who shows but will differ every week. Come out and maybe get to ride some trails that you didn't even know existed.
Meeting at the shop at 6:30pm Tuesdays!

Marsh Guards


In stock now!!
Marsh Guards are designed by ex-pat Kiwi Jason Marsh, Jason has been a mechanic on the World Cup DH circuit for the last few years and is currently Greg Minnaars  mechanic.
Designed as a replacement for the ubiquitous piece of tube stretched between crown and fork arch, it's a much more elegant solution to helping keep mud out of your face.
First seen on World Cup riders bikes at the Fort William World Cup race this year, they are quickly becoming the goto option for wet conditions. With riders such as  Greg Minnaar, Aaron Gwin, Brook McDonald, Emmeline Ragot and many many more rolling with them on their bikes.
Not guaranteed to make you as fast as the above riders, but will help you in looking as cool as them.
