Mountain bike component stalwarts Syncros are set to launch a host of new products at this autumn's Eurobike cycle show, including stems, seatposts, pedals and a carbon wheelset. Prices and full details have yet to be confirmed, but here's a sneak peak...
Stems
The new FR (main picture) and Lo Ball stems were designed in co-operation with riders from Vancouver's North Shore. The Lo Ball is a direct-mount unit compatible with Fox 40 and RockShox Boxxer downhill forks.
There are also new lighter AM (all-mountain) and FL (freeride light/cross-country) stems with a high-polish black finish. Most of the stems are available with Syncros's new 'grunge' graphics, if that's your bag.

Wheels
Syncros's new carbon wheelset is aimed at marathon and cross-country racers. Strong, wide 25mm monocoque rims are laced to Syncros 28-hole hubs with industrial bearings.
