As with our Disc and Track cogs these are CNC machined exclusively for VeloSolo by the UK's leading aftermarket motorcycle sprocket engineering company. Precision machined from heat treated high strength 4.0mm thick 7075-T6 aircraft grade aluminium alloy rather than the industry standard 3.0mm or 3.5mm. No offset so reversible without affecting chainline for longer life.
Very stiff and very strong. Teeth are hobbed the old fashioned way for superb finish and performance. Classic style with machined cut-outs (42t has drilled lightening holes). Minimal lead chamfer and full height teeth with no cut-outs or 'shift pins' give perfect engagement with the chain. Designed for singlespeed and track use, not for geared bikes. The 135mm BCD is ideal for converting a classic Campag 53/39 square taper road crank (Centaur, Veloce, Record etc) to a single ring for fixed/singlespeed use.
Variations include 130mm BCD in 1/8" or 3/32" width and 135mm and 144mm BCD in 1/8" only. The 1/8" width has nearly 50% more contact area for driving the chain than the 3/32". All BCD's available in sizes 42t, 43t, 44t, 45t, 46t, 47t, 48t, 49t. The 47t is great for multiple skid patches.
All rings are anodized black. UPDATE: GOLD is now DISCONTINUED AND SOLD OUT. All with laser engraved logo. Please see this page for sample weights of VS components. Please see FAQ for chainring bolt advice and how to measure BCD etc.
All 3/32" chainrings are 8/9/10 speed compatible and can be used singly or with a 1 x 8, 1 x 9 or 1 x 10 set-up.
These are the exact same chainrings as the black and gold models above but in a silver anodized finish to replace the discontinued polished rings.
Variations include 130mm, 135mm and 144mm BCD in 1/8" with tooth sizes of 42t, 43t, 44t, 45t, 46t, 47t, 48t, 49t. In addition the 130mm BCD option is also available in 3/32" width in the same tooth sizes.
Update October 2024: one more found! Available in 130mm BCD, 1/8" 48t. These were discontinued many years ago due to the great difficulty, danger and expense in polishing items like this! We have found a final, brand new example during a stock take.
Exact same chainrings as our anodized models but in custom polished finish. High quality full polishing to both sides including inside cut-outs etc. Same laser engraved logos as above. Please note that traditionally polished items may tarnish over time due to weather, normal use etc and may require cleaning or re-polishing - we recommend 'Peek' (easily found on eBay).

High quality machined 5083 aluminium ring made in Europe with full height teeth and no cut-away areas. Options include 36t, 38t, 39t, 40t & 42t.
All anodized silver and very lightweight. BCD is 110mm with five mounting holes. Please measure the distance between the centre of two adjacent holes and the measurement should be 64.7mm. Compatible with all 3/32" chains.
As with our road rings the VeloSolo mountain bike chainrings are precision machined from the same heat treated high strength 4.0mm thick 7075-T6 aluminium alloy for extra strength. No offset so reversible without affecting chainline for longer life.
Very stiff and very strong. Teeth are hobbed the old fashioned way for superb finish and performance. Available in tooth counts of 32t, 34t and 36t. Two new larger sizes now in stock in 38t and 42t, perfect for faster road or downhill use. Classic style with machined cut-outs on 34t, 36t and 38t. The 32t is drilled rather than 'slotted'. The 42t has circular 'telephone dial' cut-outs. Minimal lead chamfer and full height teeth with no cut-outs or 'shift pins' give perfect engagement with the chain. Designed for singlespeed mountain bike use; on or off-road.
Available in 4 bolt 104mm BCD and 1/8" or 3/32" thicknesses. Choose 1/8" with matching 1/8" chain for a superb long lasting and strong set-up for typical UK off-road conditions (the 1/8" width has nearly 50% more contact area for driving the chain than the 3/32"). Finished in anodized black or gold. New silver anodized also now available in all options. All with laser engraved logo. Please see this page for sample weights of VS components. Please see FAQ for chainring bolt advice and how to measure BCD etc.
All 3/32" chainrings are 8/9/10 speed compatible and can be used singly or with a 1 x 8, 1 x 9 or 1 x 10 set-up.
Ideal for converting a MTB to singlespeed or to replace a worn middle chainring, ideal match with a DX rear cog or 1 x 9, 1 x 10, 1 x 11 etc. Use off-road or on-road. High quality machined Dural aluminium ring made in Europe with full height teeth with no cut-away areas. Many larger sizes now available to include 32t, 34t, 36t, 38t, 40t, 42t, 44t, 50t, 46t, 48t. The standard ratio for off-road singlespeeding is 2:1 so use with a 16t (32) or 18t (36) or maybe a 14t with the 36 or 40t or larger for a faster gear when mainly on-road.
All anodized silver, additionally many now available in black too. BCD is 104mm to fit most Shimano 4 bolt pattern chainsets (please measure the distance between the centre of two adjacent holes and the measurement should be 73.5mm). Compatible with all 3/32" chains.
Exact same design as our regular cro-mo Disc cogs but machined from solid 7075-T6 heat-treated aluminium alloy, anodized and laser engraved. Less than half the weight of the equivilent steel cogs and available in a range of colours.
Note: being aluminium these are ultimately not as hard wearing as the cro-mo cogs so we are not able to offer a lifetime guarantee. However, these are in aircraft-grade heat-treated 7075 and as with our regular threaded 7075 track cogs we expect them to hold up very well to wear. They are of course reversible without affecting chainline so can be run in both directions.
Available in 1/8" width and 3/32" too. Various colours include black, red & gold. Other colours discontinued. Please see this page for sample weights of VS components. Please see FAQ for more information and set-up advice.
Converts a Shimano M756 front disc hub for use on the rear of a track/road bike. Track nuts and spacers also required. Also ideal replacement for standard 10mm x 1mm fine threaded rear road or mountain bike axle or to change from a QR to solid bolted axle.
Custom machined in the UK from EN19 high strength chro-moly steel. Bright silver passivated. Length specified slightly longer than normal to allow for track nuts with integrated washers. Choose 170mm for road/track (up to 126mm spacing) and 180mm for MTB (and road 130mm). Both M10 x 1mm fine threading. Please see FAQ for set-up advice.
Note: 110/120 kits (1 x 10mm, 2 x 5mm) now sold out but we can still supply the equivalent kit with 4 x 5mm spacers.
Use with solid axle above to convert 100mm spaced M756 front hub to 110/120mm for rear of track/road bike. Pack includes 1 x 10mm and 2 x 5mm to allow choice of spacing. Perfect for other spacing applications with any 10mm axle; swapping a 110mm hub onto a 120mm frame; 120mm to 130mm etc.

This spacer kit is for use with 1 1/8" headsets (traditional threaded or Ahead non-threaded) as fitted to road, track or classic and retro MTB frames. As with our SS kits this is a seven piece kit for really simple and precise adjustments especially when swapping forks between frames or changing headsets without having to cut down the steerer.
Pack of seven spacers includes 1 of 7.5mm, 2 of 5.0mm, 2 of 2.5mm and 2 of 1.0mm (total 24.5mm).

Excellent quality non-ramped cog for your singlespeed conversion. Use with a road or mountain bike if running a splined Shimano pattern cassette hub as a singlespeed with our kits above or similar. Ideal for the 'free' side of a mountain bike fixed/free 'flip/flop' hub. Please see FAQ for set-up advice and converting to singlespeed.
Available in 3/32" (works fine with 1/8") with chrome finish. NOTE: current stock is not carded but supplied in plain polybag. Available in 14t, 16t or 18t. The 14t is great for singlespeed road conversions needing a higher gear.
If you are converting a geared bike to singlespeed and you do not have a 12t lockring available from an old cassette or floating about in your spares box then this is what you need.
Similar to Shimano lockrings but machined from heat treated high strength 6061-T6 aluminium.alloy. Weight approx 7g. Anodized and laser etched. Superb finishing touch to a singlespeed (or geared) build. Looks great with VeloSolo singlespeed spacer kits.
Available in 12t blue - all other options unavailable. Choose 12t ring for singlespeed conversions with our spacers or when using a 12t small cog cassette on geared bikes. Choose 11t ring for use with an 11t cassette on a geared bike (11t lockring is NOT suitable for singlespeed spacers).
Note: Token have slightly changed the engraving and style of these - please see first two pictures after clicking on link. At present we have a mix of both styles depending on option selected.
Exact same CNC lockrings as above but now available to fit Campagnolo road bike cassettes. Again, choice of two sizes for cassettes with either an 11t or 12t smallest cog. Please see note for stock availability.
Note: we often get asked if our SS spacers are compatible with Campag hubs - they are not designed for Campag but most riders have used them successfully. Unlike Shimano, Campag have changed freehub OD dimensions over the years, the ID of our spacers is 35mm so please measure your hub with a vernier guage if unsure.
Photos show Shimano type mainly in use as a singlespeed lockring - Campag identical in looks except for engraving. These lockrings are of course originally intended for use with a regular geared bike cassette.
If you are converting a geared bike with vertical drop-outs to a singlespeed you will need a singlespeed tensioner to tension the chain (see link to FAQ below). These particular tensioners are well engineered, superb value for money and simple to fit in place of your normal rear mech.
Main body of forged aluminium alloy. Floating jockey wheel with fully adjustable stainless steel arm for perfect chainline set-up. Built-in metal loop chain guide. These are sprung to tension chain downwards like a rear mech. We can modify them so that they can be used to push upwards but without being sprung* (easy to change back too if required). This is free of charge - just ask when ordering. Suitable for road or off-road use with 3/32" chain. Usable with 1/8" chain but may require removal of chainguide. See FAQ for much more tensioner advice.
Note: If you are unfamiliar with chain tensioners and to avoid damage please see the FAQ for set-up and installation advice before fitting one.

This is our very popular cut-down riser. Not being able to find a riser bar in the required width we take NOS mountain bike risers and reduce them to a more suitable narrow width for urban use of 40cm. Ready to fit with grips of your choice (40cm is not usable with 'lock-on' type grips).

Our best selling take on the classic Campag 'Peanut Butter' tool. Each VeloSolo wrench is individually CNC machined from an 8mm thick block of aircraft grade heat-treated 7075-T6 aluminium alloy for durability and strength.
It's designed purely for one thing - tightening 15mm track nuts (not usable on crank bolts). No bottle opener, no hex keys - just a tactile and ergonomic piece of tool jewellery. Made entirely in the UK and precisely machined for 15mm nuts only.
Anodized in choice of eight colours; black, silver, gold, red, blue, purple, green, orange and magnesium bronze. Laser engraved. Approximately 30% lighter than a Campag tool at 75g. Length is 158mm, slips easily into a pocket. Note: compatible with virtually all dropouts except for some 'cowled' types.
NOTE: IMPORTANT! - please check your brake 'drop' (or 'reach') before choosing to avoid a wrongly selected brake or please email us for advice. Please see Sheldon Brown here for more.
Superb dual pivot design front brake caliper with cold forged arms. Perfect for a fixed wheel bike with just a front brake. QR lever for easy wheel removal and recessed allen key fitting. Suitable for drop of 39mm to 49mm. Black or new polished finish.
NOTE: recessed fitting means the rear securing nut fits inside the fork and may require the rear fork hole to be drilled out to 8mm on forks with older classic frames. This is a common procedure and easy to do. Google 'recessed fork drill' or check Sheldon here: recessed brake fitting for more.
NOTE: please check your brake 'drop' (or 'reach') before choosing to avoid a wrongly selected brake. Please see Sheldon Brown here for more.
If you are running a singlespeed road bike (ie not fixed) or indeed if you prefer to run two brakes with a fixed then we now stock a matching pair of brake calipers.

Sold as a pair.
These are traditional bolt and hex nut fitting (not recessed) but can be used with any frame and fork. To use with a recessed fitting use a washer behind the hex nut. Check Sheldon here: recessed brake fitting for more.
Note: some photos show previous model (R358), the R359 is identical except for an uprated QR and the cable adjuster is now black (the R369 still has a silver adjuster).
