EUROBIKE 2014 NEW PRODUCTS PHOTO GALLERY - PART 5

Tidy new helmet from Scott on display. It seems the MIPS protection system is gracing a lot of lids this year, so much so they even have their own stand covered in lids that use the technology. POC, Sweet Protection, and now Scott all employ the system that is designed to reduce the impact force of a crash by two 'skins' of the helmet shell moving over one another.

You might think that power meter's are just for roadies but SRAM's new setup has been used by some of their top racers to check their performance and power in race runs. Danny Hart and Needles have both been running them this year at the World Cup.

Erm….Well we have had electric bikes, fat bikes and carbon for a few years now so why not stick them all together in one bike! The new Haibike machine does the lot but what's it for!?

Speaking of 'what's it for?' they Haibike folk have this carbon electric bike on show. Coming in at a snip under €13,000 it's something of a test piece and we don't reckon many will be bought. That said there is a LOT of tech packed into this bike and it's the first full carbon electric bike on the market apparently.

The Auron from SR Suntour gets an update for 2015 with a new crown and availability in 150mm travel for 29er's. We've got a set in the office somewhere so we'll give you a lowdown once they are strapped to a bike.

Viper had some subtle shades on display at the show, this new Fiery looks pretty decent and comes in every colour way you could ever need.

Kross's Moon has had an update for 2015 and now rolls on 27.5

Garmin had their Virb helmet camera on show stuck to a great looking D3 that the Cube Action Team have been running all season.

Something we all need in the shed, an automatic brake bleeding device! This setup from Tektro is really designed for shops but it does everything for you and leaves you with fresh brakes setup and ready for the trail.

Probably the most successful DH race pedal out there at the moment they Mallet from CrankBrothers has been given some stealthy black attention for 2015. They have apse developed a new cleat that is designed to give less float if you are looking for more 'grab' from the mechanism.

CrankBrothers also had on show their new Y16 multi tool. Some neat sections for all the bits you need and a clever chain tool that uses both of the magnetic Y shaped tools to form the mechanical action needed to split and fix a chain.

Still sticking to a non-standard spoke setup CB have brought out a new budget wheel set. Coming in at under £400 these could be a decent wheel set for those after something different. The double spoke pattern could be good but we'll have to try some out to see if they can take some full trail abuse.

There is always a few bonkers things in the KCNC booth, they might not be MTB brakes but they are pretty wild!

The Maxxis Shorty is basically a production cut spike tyre, it's well refined and up to now has only been available in 26

The new Griffin was also on show and is designed as a fast rolling DH tyre, pretty good looking in the directional grip stakes they might just be a cracking trail tyre too.

The biggest news on the Schwalbe stand was also probably the smallest in the whole show. Their new Pro Core system is now available for any rim via a cover valve that inflates the core first then twists to do the tyre.
We had Dirt contributor check the system out at a recent press event from Schwalbe and he described it as a game changer. Many seem to agree and the system will be available in the UK early next year and will cost around £160. That will include, two ProCore tubes, ProCore casing, valves, tubeless sealant and a tool kit to switch out the valves.

There are a few kids DH bikes out there but this one from Propain is a cracker!

The FrechDax has a RockShox Monarch rear shock and some forks from White Brothers. I wish I had one of these when I was a nipper!

No need for anything more the FrechDax runs a single speed setup, clearly intended for park laps!

The cut down Hussefelt cranks keep strength high and the ability to run a standard drivetrain setup.

Big brother on the Propain stand is this matt mustard yellow Pro10. Updated to run 27.5 wheels the bike sticks with Propain's suspension design and doesn't gain weight going into 2015.

Tidy carbon mud guard out back too, never seen a bike in this colour either!

The madness continues, electric double chained DH bike anyone?

Thought not...

The La Bomba from GT has always been a fun looking little jump bike and for 2015 it looks even better! Skinwall tyres and a great grey/purple paint job it's going to be a belter to hit the jumps with.

GT know how to do BMX, in the past they have shown is a custom Ti race frame but this year it's this hydroformed aluminium beauty on show.

Some sweet details too in the mirror finish graphics and bright anodised components.

Just to point out how big the electric bike movement is Bosch had this massive stand that always seemed busy. Mountain biking may be a small part of the market but it's here to stay for a lot of commuting bikes thats for sure.

Some pretty wild and bright DH wheels from SixPack were on show too, maybe a bit too much if you go for the yellow frame too?

Decent long travel hard tails are popping up all over the place , this one from Nukeproof looks like a cracker and we'll be riding one soon hopefully.

Sam Hill proved the Pulse has the legs for the World Cup circuit. For some reason they are sticking to 26

Purple shock bling anyone? These upgrades will give any bike a factory look!

Every part of the Atlas brace has been updated and the weight has been reduced again making this the lightest on the market. Plenty of colours to choose from and they do braces down to kids sizes as well.

We caught up with Fox as the beers came out! Sitting between the Rampage Pro carbon and the composite version this lid comes from a different mould and comes in at a decent price point too.

The Main goggle is back and looking good. Originally manufactured by Oakley Zeiss are now responsible for these so clarity should be pretty good.

A new colourway for the Rampage Pro Carbon looking fresh in the German sunshine.

High riser bars from Kore are ready for the dirt jumpers out there but could well be set for the DH racers too with a few top riders opting for higher rise bars this season.

The Eccentric from NS, another hardtail worth a spin in the woods by the Dirt team.

Another belting kids bike from Transition the Ripcord sets teenagers off on the road to Rampage.

Transitions TR500 was on show in nice bright yellow, we have jut had one arrive in the office so keep an eye out for a review soon.

Orange Segment, get it?

The new 29'er from Halifax was in town and was getting a lot of attention. New graphics and a new bike for Orange this one looks great to us.

Five Ten have been working on a new Enduro specific shoe and the Kestral is the fruit of their labours. Using the BOA system seen on road shoes mainly the closure is easy and simple to adjust on the move with one hand.

Five Ten have also developed the new Freerider Contact. A new design for the toe and different base material add to the big lineup of rubber from the US.
