AceCo Sport Group recently provided Amy Dombroski with our new K-Edge Ring Guard and a K-Edge Cross prototype chain catcher. Here’s what Amy had to say about them:

“I have been on a quest to make my bikes as light as possible, while also riding some of the best and most innovative equipment.  When I found AceCo’s K-Series Cycling Solutions, I grew one step closer this.  AceCo is light-years ahead of any competition in their product design and ingenuity.  It also helps that they have the brilliant mind and bike racer, Kristin Armstrong as the impetus behind their K-Edge chain catchers.  I am happy to have AceCo’s support in my cycling endeavors because it is a product I truly believe in and can trust that there is as much thought behind the product as there is in my training.” — Amy Dombroski

Check out the K-Edge Clamp and Ring Guard on AceCo General Manager Eric Jensen’s cross bike. K-Edge Clamp works great on Cross, Road, and even Mountain bikes.

Concerned about weight? Complete K-Edge Clamp is less than 21 grams!

We’re also curious as to why Bradley wasn’t running his custom Garmin K-Edge Road chain catcher during the World Championship TT. According to sources close to the team, he has been running it all year.

Kristin dominated the TT at the 2009 World Championships. Check out the Gold K-Edge on her P4…definitely no reservations about dropping to small ring on the climb!

Congratulations to Kristin Armstrong for winning the 2009 World Time Trial Championships!

Closest competitor was a sizable 55 seconds back.

“Just when we were about to catch him he dropped his chain,” Wilson said.

Jessica Phillips recently won the Cascade Cycling Classic Time Trial and turned around a week later and won the National Time Trial Title also in Bend, Oregon.  Jessica is running a Gold K-Edge Road chain catcher on her Fuji Time Trial machine. Congratulations Jessica!

Check out the Shocker Distribution, Booth B5-301 at next week’s Eurobike.  Not only will we have a cool display showing off our K-Edge Road chain catchers, we’ll also have on display some other chain retention devices that we’re just about to release to the market.

Here’s a sneak preview of some of the products we’re introducing:

In June, Eric Jensen and Joe Savola from AceCo Sport Group were in Minneapolis to support Kristin Armstrong on her fourth consecutive Nature Valley Grand Prix title.  While at the NVGP, Eric and Joe met with several teams on the benefits of having the K-Edge Road on their bikes.  We are proud that the PROMAN Women’s Cycling Team chose to run the K-Edges on their team bikes.  In fact K-Edge equipped bikes took first and second overall at the NVGP!
