Eurobike Gallery: Deda wheels, Easton wheels and forks, Limar helmets and glasses, new Look X-85 ‘cross bike

Deda’s new wheels come in carbon tubular and clincher and aluminum clincher versions. All of them have the nipples at the hub to decrease rotational inertia. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Deda carbon clinchers have the brake track inboard of the rim edge so it is supported by the crosswise rim bed like a tubular wheel and is not heating or wearing the clincher hook walls. Deda offers offset brake-pad holders for those bikes with too much distance between dropout and brake hole for the pads to reach the brake track without them. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Not sure if this is cyclocross-specific equipment, but it would probably work on a cyclocross course as long as it was not raining or super cold. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Its South African maker has given Prologo the exclusive license for the bike industry of its CPC (Connect Power Control) grip panels it uses in gloves and saddles. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Prologo’s CPC (Connect Power Control) synthetic grip material was developed for military use with the design imperative of allowing a soldier sliding down a rope from a helicopter to stop an 8-meter slide by grabbing the rope with a single hand – and without burning that hand. So it will hold onto your handlebars very well, no matter how hot they are! Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Prologo’s CPC (Connect Power Control) grip areas have little, soft spines sticking up that are extremely tough, grippy, and heat-resistant, and allow airflow. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Easton’s EC90 XD aluminum-rim disc-brake clincher wheels are the perfect mate to the EC90 XD fork. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

The Easton EC90 XD fork accepts a 140mm-diameter rotor as is. An included adapter allows the use of a 160mm rotor. Its dropouts angle forward to counteract the tendency of the disc brake to push the wheel straight down out of the dropouts. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Easton’s EC90 XD disc-brake cyclocross fork only weighs 460 grams but is über stiff, thanks to its huge legs and tapered steering tube. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

The gears inside of the Park Tools PRS-33 stand drive a huge drive chain and will go to and stop at any height with the flip of a switch. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

You can have one or two of Park’s super-strong arm clamps on the Park PRS-33 electric-lift bike stand. It bolts to the floor or to a super-heavy steel plate. Its vertical and horizontal members are extruded aluminum. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

The Park PRS-33 electric-lift bike stand is the über repair stand that anyone working on electric bikes or other heavy bikes dreams of. Its electric motor lifts bikes of up to 120 pounds from its lowest position of 6 inches above the ground to 6’8” high. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

S-Track mountain pedals have Look’s styling and wide bearing surface and incorporate cleat-spring-clip technology similar to Time and Crank Brothers. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

You can get Look’s flagship 695 frame module in a number of national colors. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Look’s X-85 cyclocross bike has disc brakes and an 1,150-gram carbon frame made with tube-to-tube construction (mitered tubes with carbon wrap at joints). Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Clemént will soon have cyclocross-specific wheels as well, and its new aluminum tubular rims have a radius perfectly mated to a 33mm cyclocross tubular. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Clemént’s new cyclocross tire design will take the traditional chevron design pioneered on the Clemént Grifo in the 1950s a few steps further with more resistant side knobs and trisected center chevrons. And the mold model is really fun (and good forearm exercise) to squish in your hands! Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Conti’s belt drive system has rails on both sides of the sprockets for retention and can run securely at relatively low belt tension. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Continental Tire, like Gates Tire and Rubber, has been making automotive belts for a long time and also decided to do one for bicycles. Its toothed drive belt has aramid, rather than carbon, fibers to give it strength and resilience but to be less prone to breakage under twisting. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Limar’s new Velov line of urban helmets have removable vent covers and the styling to not look like a dweeb on your e-bike or urban commuter in your street clothes. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Limar has made a big new push into mountain bike helmets with aggressive styling and matte finish on the 875 and higher-end double-in-molded 885 model helmets. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

The new head retention system integrated into all 2013 high-end Limar helmets has pivots for vertical adjustment as well as a knob for horizontal adjustment. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

All Limar sunglasses fit prescription lens holders for each model with a tab at the top that snaps into a receptacle in the frame. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com

Limar’s new photochromic sunglasses use top-shelf NXT lenses that do 80 percent of the full color change in 10 seconds, and the remaining 20 percent over the next 30 seconds. Photo: Lennard Zinn | www.VeloNews.com
