Eagerly anticipated, the updated Shimano R8000 crankset has arrived. Featuring clear improvements in aesthetics and performance from the 6800 series, the Ultegra R8000 series has hugely benefited from the trickle-down technology of its big brother, the Dura-Ace R9000 model. This completely updated road bike chainset features lightweight crankarms, a hollow outer chainring, and a wider gear pitch for increased clearance on modern road frames that have wider rear dropouts and longer chainstays. Offering weight reduction without sacrificing stiffness, the Shimano Ultegra R8000 chainset enables a wide range of gear combinations to suit your every need. Paired with the updated front and rear derailleurs, your shifts will be so fast and reliable that you’ll almost question whether they happened at all. The beautifully shaped crankarms borrow their styling from Dura-Ace and will complement and enhance the aesthetics of your bike.
This stunning model features immensely high-quality forged 6082-T6 aluminium construction for superb durability. Additionally, this model's chainring is coated in a unique surface treatment which increases its resistance to wear. This is a perfect choice of upgrade for pushing your track performance to the next level.
The Box Three groupset offers the same capability as its top-tier siblings but it's built around a simpler platform. The cassette is more accessible at 11-46T and fashioned without a spider. The rear mech exploits Box's Limited Slip clutch technology without the Tri-pack features. This allows you to shift easily with a comparable mechanism, although you'll forgo the hinged clamp and die-cast structure. Lastly, it's strung together with a Prime 9 chain but without extravagant coatings. If you're looking to bring your mountain bike into the 21st century, then level up with this group. Box Three Prime 9 Shifter The Box Three shifter makes good use of nylon composites in both top and bottom shells as well as the levers. Box Three is our performance and value tier. So this shifter sheds all the fancy trappings of the top 2 tiers but maintains their shifting characteristics. All Prime 9 shifters take advantage of the 9-speed's inherent durability, simplicity, and reliability. Not only is the shifter mechanism joyfully simplified, but fewer shifts are needed for every mile of travel. And the best part is? Prime 9 is also terribly forgiving so you won't have to constantly adjust your set-up.

The Silca HX-One Essential Kit is one of the most functionally efficient and aesthetically pleasing hex key sets on the market. Enclosed in a CNC machined Beechwood box each tool rests in its own slot that clicks into place and is accessible with one hand. The CNC box made from sustainable Beechwood is hand sanded and finished before receiving the stainless steel Silca shield and is just the icing on the cake for the beauty that is the HX-One Kit. Made from S2 tool steel coated with thin-dense Chrome, a process generally reserved for mould tool components, the HX-One hex keys possess the optimal balance of strength, hardness, shock resistance and dimensional control. The use of S2 tool steel provides stronger tools with much harder surfaces giving prolonged tool life, made 16% harder by the thin-dense Chrome. To finish the hex keys each tool is sprayed with a high-grip, high-visibility textured polymer to help prevent the dropping and damaging of tools. Included in each HX-One Kit is the proprietary Silca 17-4 Stainless Magnetic Adapter. The adapter turns the 6mm hex key into a 1/4" socket drive. To fit with this are the 6 most common Torx sizes, 2 Phillips head and 2 Flat head drivers. The adapters and additional drivers provide the kit with the ability to handle any modern bike in a workshop, at home or on the move.
