NS Bikes never seem to fail to make rad looking bikes and it was this Eccentric hardtail which was the first thing to catch my eye at Core this year. I just think it looks like it’d be ace fun and I love the split colour scheme. If you think the same then £1599.99 will buy you one.

At the other end of the suspension spectrum on the NS Bikes stand was their sweet looking Fuzz 1 DH bike. At £3199.99 with some well thought out components we think this one has definitely got some potential. It’s the little details like the matching rims that help make this bike look as good as it does.

Another bike on the NS stand that had us wanting to throw a leg over it was this Soda Air. It just looks like it’ll be rapid and fun all at the same time. Single ring, Pike’s, Monarch Plus, dropper post, slack…what’s there not to like? At £2799.99 it looks to be a good price too.

Alongside their frames NS Bikes also make some great components, many of which we’ve tested and loved, and these Radical pedals look like they could well end up joining that list of loved products. There’s nothing too crazy going on, apart from maybe the graphics, but over the years we’ve discovered that when it comes to flat pedals it’s hard to beat a classic design. A pair of these will set you back £89.99
