Crank Brothers released their latest on-the-road tool kit, the Y16 and the Y12. The latter comes with small storage compartments while the former uses that space for a CO2 inflator head and chain breaker. © Cyclocross Magazine
Not everything we saw at Interbike 2014 was a new cyclocross bike. Walking the floor, we saw new VX Race pedals from VP Pedals, innovative Y16 and Y12 wrenches/multi-tools from Crank Brothers, the easy-to-use Brass Knuckles bike roof mount from Rocky Mounts, and cyclocross-specific hubs from two NorCal companies: Phil Wood’s Classic Cyclocross Hubs and White Industries’ CX11 hubs.
