Ultra Lightweight bike parts(cranksets, seatposts, chainrings etc.) Including titanium parts

[Sandro]

I am about to bring in a new range from Italy from a company that specialises in manufacturing lightweight bike accessories expecially for MTB and including things like fixed gear hub kits, titanium seatposts, titanium quick releases, even carbon wheels too obviously. What are your guys opinions especially with regard to titanium accessories and parts? The range is of a very high quality and precision. I will be bringing in some samples shortly. What new parts would you like to see on the market here?

PMP make some very good parts but they are expensive on some of the items.Pretty good value for money though

 

I have a set of those 819 rims and they are damn strong.

OK well thats good to hear, can I ask where you got them from?

I like the fact i can get a MTB crank in 172.5, not that i need 1 anymore, but they offer it as opposed to many who only do 170-175.

 

I eventually went Aerozine, now to 175's with my new fiets.

 

I believe price is going to be the issue unless it's a well known brand? If it's cheaper than eg Thompson/Enve/KCNC etc or equal, then it may move & how much you market it.

 

Good luck

Thanks Clinton, the brand seems well known overseas. Looking at the pricing now actually but still need to work out exactly with landed cost. My knowledge is more with road than MTB, what would you say is the right price range for a high end crankset for MTB?
