Intense Cycles are synonymous with two things – the revolutionary M1 downhill frame and the legendary Tracer trail bike.

Today, they continue to make world class mountain bikes and BMXs, with the highlight of the 2009 product year being the reinvention of the Tracer as an adjustable all-mountain rig.

Check out the 951 with the £800 Crank Brothers Opium DH wheels!

I have new crank brothers 50 50 XX pedals on Tango now. Aside from my feet flying off occasionally they seem grippy, light, stiff, smooth and ultra strong. they came with a second set of plates and replacement /additional pins and beautifully packaged.

I can highly recommend them. Especially if you can pick them up for £40 like I did!! (RRP £79.99)
