🚴‍♂️💡 THE FUTURE OF COMMUTING HAS ARRIVED! 💡🚴‍♀️

🔥 Introducing the ABUS HYP-E – more than just a helmet! 🔥

Who said safety couldn’t look this good?! 😍

The ABUS Cycling HYP-E takes commuter helmet design to a whole new level, combining sleek styling, innovative technology and clever safety features to help you stand out on the road!

Whether you’re commuting to work, navigating busy city streets or enjoying an evening ride, this helmet has some seriously impressive tricks up its sleeve! 👀

💡 Integrated Front & Rear Lighting – Built-in white front and red rear LED lights help keep you visible to other road users.

↔️ Turn Indicators – Optional handlebar-mounted controls allow you to signal your intentions without taking your hands off the bars!

🛑 Brake Light Function – With the optional brake light upgrade, the rear lighting can signal when you’re slowing down, giving traffic behind you an extra warning.

🕶️ Visor Options – Add extra protection from wind, rain and the elements with a compatible visor.

🌧️ Weather-Ready Design – Clever ventilation and closable vents help keep you comfortable whatever the British weather decides to throw at you!

✨ Modern, Urban Styling – A sleek, premium design that looks just as good off the bike as it does on it.

🚲 THE PERFECT COMMUTER HELMET? WE THINK SO!

With more people choosing to cycle to work, particularly on e-bikes, being seen and communicating your intentions to other road users has never been more important.

And let’s face it… it looks pretty cool too! 😎

📍 Available at Paddox Cycles, Rugby!

❤️ THIS IS WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO! ❤️

After a long, busy week in the workshop, receiving a review like this today really did put a smile on my face! 😊

Running an independent bike shop isn’t always easy. There’s long days, plenty of challenges and never quite enough hours in the day… but moments like this make it all worthwhile.

🚴‍♂️ A cycling trip to the Alps was on the line, a Shimano Di2 rear derailleur had decided to give up, and time was running out!

Sometimes you’ve just got to think outside the box… even if that means taking a derailleur off your own bike to keep someone else’s wheels turning! 😂🔧

At Paddox Cycles, I’ve always believed that customer service is about more than simply selling bikes, fitting parts or carrying out repairs.

It’s about going that extra mile, finding solutions and treating every customer’s bike as if it were your own.

I will always do everything I possibly can to deliver the very best service, even if that means going above and beyond what’s expected. 💪

We’re a small, independent, family-run bike shop, and reviews like this mean more than people probably realise.

A massive thank you for taking the time to leave such lovely words. I’m just pleased we managed to save the trip (and apparently restore some peace at home too! 😂).

It’s not just about fixing bikes. It’s about looking after the people who ride them. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who continues to support Paddox Cycles. It genuinely means the world.

🎅🎄 SANTA’S CALLED IN THE REINFORCEMENTS EARLY THIS YEAR! 🚲🎁

It might only be October, but Santa’s workshop is already getting busy… and he’s asked Paddox Cycles to lend a hand! 🎅🔧

We’re super excited to announce that our FIRST ORDER OF SQUISH BIKES IS ON ITS WAY! 🚀🥳

🚲 From 14” right up to 26” pedal bikes, we’ll have a fantastic range of Squish bikes arriving in store, ready to put some HUGE smiles on little faces this Christmas! 😁

We’ll also be stocking HOY Balance Bikes, perfect for those little legs taking their first steps towards life on two wheels! 💨

🚲 LITTLE BIKE. BIG ADVENTURES! 💚💜

How cool is the Merida MATTS J.20?! 😍

Shown here in the 20” wheel version, it’s a proper little mountain bike designed for young riders who are ready to get out, explore and build their confidence on two wheels.

And just look at that colour! 💚 The fresh green frame with those purple details definitely makes this one stand out from the crowd.

Whether it’s family rides, tearing around the local trails or simply heading out on their next adventure, the MATTS J.20 is ready for it. 🙌

A great choice for the next step up from a smaller kids’ bike — and something that looks every bit as cool as Mum or Dad’s MTB! 😎

📍 Available at Paddox Cycles, Rugby

Pop in and take a look — we can help make sure you get the right size and setup for your little rider. 🚲

🤩 It’s not too often something comes through the workshop that gets us this excited…

We’ve been looking forward to the arrival of this one for a while — the brand-new Alugear_components NOVA34 cassette. 🔥

An 11–34T, 12-speed road cassette, designed, machined and inspected in-house in Poland 🇵🇱 — and there’s some pretty impressive engineering hiding behind that intricate machining.

The heart of the NOVA34 is 11 sprockets machined from a single block of Cr-Mo steel, hardened to 52 HRC. The tooth profiles, shifting ramps and all those weight-saving pockets are produced using multi-axis machining, while the separate 34T sprocket is CNC-machined from 7075-T6 aluminium.

And the result?

⚖️ Just 189g INCLUDING the lockring!

That makes it over 60g lighter than an equivalent 11–34 Dura-Ace cassette — a pretty substantial saving from one component.

The gearing is 11-12-13-14-15-17-19-21-24-27-30-34T, it’s compatible with Shimano 12-speed road drivetrains and can be fitted to both Shimano L1 and L2 freehub bodies. 👌

So whether you’re running the newer Dura-Ace/Ultegra L2-style freehub or the more traditional L1/HG-style setup, the NOVA34 has you covered.

Then there’s the finishing touch… 👌

The aluminium 34T sprocket, lockring and inner spacer can be anodised in a choice of 10 colours, so there’s plenty of opportunity to add a little individuality to the drivetrain.

Engineering like this is exactly why we love what we do. 😍

Now the important question… what colour 34T would you choose? 👀

🔧 It’s all in the details… 🔧

Ever wondered why a brake can still rub, wear pads unevenly or just never feel quite right, even after it’s been adjusted?

The problem isn’t always the brake itself. 👀

These are the disc brake caliper mounting faces — and as you can see, corrosion, paint and poorly finished surfaces can leave them far from flat.

If the mounting faces aren’t true, the caliper may not sit perfectly square to the rotor. That can contribute to:

⚙️ Uneven brake pad wear
⚙️ Persistent disc rubbing
⚙️ Difficult caliper alignment
⚙️ Reduced braking performance and feel

It’s something we check when setting up brakes and as part of our servicing.

When they need attention, out comes the Park Tool DT-5.2 Disc Brake Mount Facing Set. 🛠️ This allows us to accurately machine the mounting faces, removing corrosion, excess paint and high spots to give the caliper a clean, flat and correctly aligned surface to mount against.

It’s one of those jobs you might never see once the bike is back together — but it can make a big difference to how the brakes perform.

At Paddox Cycles, we’re always investing in the right tools and taking the extra steps to deliver the best quality service possible. 💪🚲

Proper tools. Proper preparation. Proper servicing.

Quality, expertise, service and passion are prevailing over price wars, figures suggest, as the cycling industry returns to growth in the post-Wiggle world.

“Data from the Bicycle Association has shown month-on-month growth throughout the year, and August was one of the highest grossing months,” Mike Rice from Balfe's told us. “I think the cycle industry is returning to a growth mode and it’s in a healthier position than it has been for years – in the post-COVID era.”

Justin Hoy, MD of Pronto Bikes who have one store in Frome, Somerset, and are about to open another in the New Forest town of Ringwood, says the company is successful and growing because it's been built around a community. “Our business is not just about offering products that people want to buy, but offering them the ability to meet other people and go riding together. People don't join the cycle industry to get rich, because it's not a massively lucrative thing for anyone. They join it because they like riding bikes. And we love riding bikes.

🚲💨 CYCLOCROSS IS HERE!!! 🌧️💥

I’m seriously excited to hear the stories of our local legends who keep racing right through the winter, getting muddy, cold and absolutely sending it around cyclocross courses across the region.

As a local bike shop, I felt we should embrace the sport and do our bit to support the riders who make the local CX scene what it is. I’ve been having plenty of conversations and looking at what we can do to help.

So I’m really happy to announce that Paddox Cycles is now stocking Challenge Tires Cyclocross tyres! 🛞

Hand-built in Italy and trusted by some of the biggest names in cyclocross, Challenge tyres have become something of a benchmark when it comes to CX rubber.

We currently have the three most popular choices for local racing in stock, with tubular versions also available to order.

So whether you’re chasing podiums, trying to stay upright through the mud, or simply wondering why you voluntarily signed up for this… we’ve got you covered. 😂

🌧️ Mud
🌱 Grass
🪵 Barriers
💥 Full gas
🏁 CX season

Bring it on.
