With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

If you're thinking about taking the plunge into XC racing do it with the chisel comp. It embodies all of the qualities you'd expect from an XC race bike like light overall weight incredible stiffness and a race-oriented geometry. Consider it the vessel that's bringing performance to the masses.
Traditional welding methods create frame joints by connecting tubes to cylinders leaving the performance & security of the connection up to the skill of the welder. D'aluisio (dsw) however allows us to move the joint away from the area of the highest stress making for a lighter frameset that's stiff compliant and incredibly strongthe optimal characteristics for a hardtail XC rig. So what does this mean for you? You'll be powering up climbs shredding singletrack and everything in between on a bike that has you question why alloy as gotten such a bad rap.
And to further improve this feel the chisel also features our XC 29 geometry which took our previous XC race geo and added some trail dna to the mix. This equates to a longer top tube a shortened the head tube and a slacked out front end the result of which is a tremendous increase in downhill stability plus a wider fit range. And just as importantly this doesn't require any sacrifice of climbing proficiency.
The build on this it features a mixture of Shimano deore and xt two-by components for a wide range of gears. You'll also find powerful mt500 deore hydraulic disc brakes a historically revered rockshox judy fork with up to 100mm of travel (size-specific) and 25-millimeter-wide alloy wheels that are optimized for weight and traction.
