Concrete Road’s The Witches Cycle Will Launch on The Radavist in January
Concrete Road illustrates Manga-inspired cycling adventure comics, and his latest project, The Witches Cycle: Chapter 1 will be released in January here on The Radavist!
Tony has been working for several years on this comic, which talks about cycling, magic, and NEET’s life. He put a lot of himself in the story and a lot of the landscapes from the place I live in the drawings.
We hope you’ll join Vera, Mary, and Tama on their adventures on @theradavist throughout the first six months of 2024!
Ratio Technology’s Direct Mount Chainrings are Made in the Lakes District, UK £70
Ratio’s new chainrings build on the brand’s successful 5 Bolt design, using its own tooth profile, which allows for the broadest possible range of compatibility: Narrow enough for Campagnolo Ekar 13 speed but also compatible with SRAM Eagle, SRAM Flattop and Shimano HG+ 12 speed chains.
Designed and manufactured here in the Lake District, our spiderless rings are lightweight, strong and – we think – look awesome! Available from 34t to 44t, Ratio will have sizes to suit all set-ups.
