Having spent every summer racing in Switzerland since 2000 I have started to get used to well made European cycling gear.

There isn't much of that available in NZ so I founded Tineli Ltd to produce custom designed and printed cycling apparel in Europe and import it into New Zealand and Australia.

The unique design of Keywin MudMan pedals makes them easy to get into even the muddiest conditions and they are really lightweight.
Keywin also makes really great road and track pedals.

The Eclipse Tubelesskit allows you to make normal tires and rims tubeless. It is used by Thomas Frischknecht, Thomas Hochstrasser, THomas Kalberer and now me!
