dialled bikes is pleased to announce the launch of it's Alpine testing centre in partnership with www.trailAddiction.com. Ash Smith, co-founder/director of trailAddiction has been test riding a variety of dialled bikes prototype and production frames for the last few years in the French and Swiss Alps, and after visiting him and riding with the trailAddiction team for a week last year, I was impressed not only with their riding and guiding skills, but also the terrain which they get to ride on a daily basis as mountain bike guides. trailAddiction describes its local riding as "lift assisted singletrack", which simply means miles and miles of sweet Alpine trails all serviced by the excellent network of lifts that the Les Arcs area has. In a nutshell, the ideal place to test new prototypes and the ideal riders to thrash test new frames (i.e. people who ride hundreds of miles per week on terrain we can only dream about in the UK!).
So if you're thinking of taking a mountain biking holiday this summer, check out www.trailAddiction.com for some of the best trails and guiding in Europe. You might even get to test ride a new dialled bikes prototype frame while you're out there!
