FIND OUT ABOUT THE FORGE

Winter cycling isn’t for the faint-hearted. While some retreat indoors to turbo trainers and virtual worlds, there’s no substitute for the grit and beauty of the great outdoors. From the chill that takes your breath away to the glow of a sunrise breaking over misty hills, winter riding offers a raw, unmatched connection to the road.

And there’s no better place to embrace this than the Yorkshire Dales – a landscape of moody, fog-cloaked climbs, rolling valleys, and raw, rugged beauty.

To take on the elements, you need the right bike.

Enter the Forge – Pearson Cycles’ all-season machine, built to thrive in Britain’s harshest conditions. Its lightweight carbon frame and bike-fit-led design combine endurance and performance to glide over undulating terrain. Functional details like hidden mudguard eyelets, triple bottle mounts, and a Hope T47 threaded bottom bracket ensure it’s as practical as it is powerful, whether you’re tackling Buttertubs Pass or exploring quiet, frost-lined lanes.

And now, every Forge comes fitted with ERE wheels and Vittoria Tyres. ERE Research’s carbon wheelsets deliver the perfect balance of speed, aerodynamics, and reliability, while Vittoria Corsa tyres offer exceptional protection without compromising road feel. This pairing ensures every mile is smooth, connected, and ready for whatever the winter season throws your way.

Forget the turbo trainer – this season, embrace the elements and experience the raw beauty of winter with the Forge.
