Eclat – Cortex Front Hub

January 17, 2017

The crew at Eclat have released their new Cortex front hub! This hub starts out with a CNC machined 6061-T6 alloy shell that has 2 sealed bearings with a 14mm, heat-treated 4130 chromoly female axle inside and longer 35mm chromoly bolts to keep things tight. The Cortex front hub has narrower flanges for better spoke clearance, allen key hex on the bolts and each hub comes with the 2 of the new Cortex hub guards to protect the hub from grinds.

The Cortex front hub is available in Black and Polished colors through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Eclat worldwide now! If you’re looking for a complete wheel, this hub is also available in a complete wheel with the Bondi XL, Trippin XL or Polar rim as well!

Eclat – Mirage Tire

January 16, 2017

Eclat have released their new Mirage Tire for you to dial in those wheels of yours with some new rubber. The Mirage tire is Eclat’s new high performance, lightweight street tire that has a 120 TPI construction, dual rubber compound with a smooth center tread and more agressive sides for increased traction while turning. You can also find an outer line of thicker rubber on the sidewall for grind protection and a full-length “Silkshield” layer under the tread and sidewalls. You can be assured these tires are solid because they are made by Maxxis Tires. This tire is rated for a max 110 PSI as well.

The Mirage tire is available in 2.25″ and 2.35″ sizes, Folding and Wire Bead styles and black for the only color through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Eclat worldwide now.

Weight
2.25″ folding bead 18oz / 510g
2.35″ folding bead 19.6oz / 555g

2.25″ wire bead 20oz / 566g
2.35″ wire bead 21.7oz / 615g

We haven’t seen too many folding tires lately, but it’s good to see this tire available in both styles.

Eclat – Dan Coller Welcome to the Pro Team

January 6, 2017

Dan Coller has been given the well deserved bump on up to the Eclat Pro team!

Here’s some good news for your 2017 Sponsor changes! Dan Coller has been given the well deserved bump on up to the Eclat PRO team! To celebrate, here’s his welcome video that’s packed with some insanely dialed rail destruction. Expect to see plenty more from Dan in 2017!

“When it comes to rails, Dan Coller never ceases to amaze. Dan managed to find and conquer all sorts of weird handrail configurations for his welcome to Éclat pro video. Be prepared to get whomped over the head with a serious display of handrail superiority.” – Ride BMX

Cult X Eclat – Kilian Roth Welcome to the Pro Teams

January 4, 2017

So far this year we have only heard of riders getting cut from teams as far as sponsor changes go. Well, here’s some good news for you, for a change! Cult and Eclat have both added Kilian Roth to their Pro Teams! Above is his official welcome video that’s packed full of heat showing you just why they are giving him the bump up!

“Wow! After a horrible ACL injury back in 2015 while filming in Seville, Kilian Roth has been on the rehab game and to call this a comeback is an understatement! We’ve always been massive fans of his riding style and this shows exactly why – precision, speed and all balanced out with a nonchalant way about him. Kilian is a damn weapon and we couldn’t be happier for him that he got the bump to Pro on Cult and Eclat. Well deserved! All hail the tire ride king.

“The drive to progress and innovate is something that never slows down for éclat. We continually believe in taking a step back, looking at the bikes we ride and trying to work out how we can modify, change, or even just totally re-think even the smallest component into something that’s even better than before.

Eclat – Seeker Pedal

November 8, 2016

Is it time for a new set of BMX Pedals? The crew over at Eclat have released their new Seeker Pedals for those of you who prefer a plastic pedal. These pedals start out with an injection molded nylon and fiberglass body with a wider body than most other pedals that is also thinner than the average pedal. You can find 14 molded pins and knurling on both sides of the pedal, along with a few Eclat logos for good measure. One thing you might also notice is the pedal is flat from side to side with a small concave, where most pedals feature a bulkier center to accommodate for the axle and bearings.

Inside you can find a chromoly axle and a dual bearing and bushing combination that allows the pedal to maintain strength without having too much bulk.

The Seeker pedal comes in colors of black and Army green with a weight of 15.97 oz. Available through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Eclat worldwide now.

Knurling + 14 molded pins = plenty of traction.

These pedals feature a slimmer profile than most plastic pedals on the market. You can also see how the pedal is flat from end to end with a slight concave to give a little more grab on the pedal.

Available in black and Army green colors now.

WeMakeThings Now Distributed By Snap Distribution In UK

November 4, 2016

It looks like there will be a change in where BMX shops are getting their supply of Eclat, Salt, Salt Plus and Fuse Protection products in the U.K. Some of the brands under the WeMakeThings blanket have made the move over to Snap Distribution. However, you will still find Wethepeople still being taken care of by Cycling Sports Group for UK Distribution. Get the full press-release below.

“OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE FROM WE MAKE THINGS Gmbh:

As of November 1st 2016, we have moved our UK distribution operations of our BMX brands Éclat, Fuse Protection, and Salt / SaltPlus from Cycling Sports Group UK to Snap Distribution.

We would like to thank Cycling Sports Group UK for everything it has done to grow and cultivate Éclat, Fuse Protection and Salt / SaltPlus for many years in the United Kingdom. At a time when CSG are applying more focus on its complete bike brands like WETHEPEOPLE we feel that moving P&A brands like Éclat and Salt / SaltPlus to Snap will help expand our growth with a more distinct and direct way. All parties have dealt with this move in a mutual agreement and we look forward to working hard in the future with both Snap Distribution and Cycling Sports Group UK.

Harry Schmid CEO of We Make Things Gmbh said “We are really excited to end 2016 and move into 2017 with a brand new U.K distributor for Éclat, Fuse & Salt / SaltPlus but not without mentioning the hard work of Cycling Sports Group UK who have helped build these brands into what they are today in the U.K”.

All our Éclat, Fuse Protection, and Salt / SaltPlus products are now available through Snap Distribution.
