Bikes

Riders are welcome to use their own track bikes at ESV sessions, or to use one of the NCC Dolan bikes. The NCC bikes can only be used for Club training sessions and must not be used for competition events such as track leagues etc.

ESV also has a limited number of bikes which can be allocated to riders at Coaches’ discretion, to take part in racing events after they have completed Track Accreditation. There are no charges to club members for these bikes.

Any rider wishing to take any bike onto the track which they have not previously ridden, should speak to ESV Coaches beforehand.

Please note that the maximum gear allowed on our Monday and Saturday session is 81″ (6.45m or Youth B).

For information on track bike specification or BC gearing restrictions please see Track Bike Specifications

Please remember – track bikes are designed for velodrome use only and are not legal or safe to use on the road without the addition of a properly functioning front brake.
