HUP evo2 (UCI approved)

Since it's launch, the HUP evo has enjoyed many years of global racing success in CX, Road, Triathlon & Gravel events. Now, the new, re-engineered, UCI approved HUP evo2 has arrived. After substantial redevelopment it's now even lighter, with larger clearances, multiple bottle cage bosses, bigger chainrings and a UDH hanger- only a limited number of Framesets are available initially.

The all-new HUP evo2: ready to smash Cyclocross Racing & Gravel Racing & Bikepacking...

  • UCI approved
  • Reduced weight
  • Choice of CX or Gravel fork
  • Up to 50mm tyre clearance
  • UDH hanger
  • Bigger chainrings
  • Multiple bottle cages
  • Improved cabling
  • 4 new colourways

Through independent SGS testing, we've been able to re-engineer the triple-butted 7005 tubes, 8 of the 11 tubes are new, reducing weight. Along with the new Brushed Aluminium finish, that reduction in weight ranges from between 100g and 250g, depending on size. With frame weights from 1195g in aluminium, we make High Street brands blush, when comparing their carbon frames, at half the price.

We’ve kept the same, highly successful race geometry as the original HUP evo. It works, it wins, so we kept it. This means you can continue to race Cyclocross, Road, Triathlon - but now, Gravel too. By increasing mud clearances, Gravel in Summer, CX in Winter with just a change of tyres is real. Big mud clearances on 33c, or space for 50mm gravel tyres using the dedicated Gravel fork.

Even with its race geometry, you can still build your bike for more relaxed, Gravel focused adventures, thanks to our new Gravel adventure fork with luggage bosses and larger clearances. We also have gravel bars, high rise headset caps and a huge choice of crankset/gearing options.

With re-designed chainstays, we’ve managed to increase the maximum chainring size to 50T on a single chaining or a 50/34 on a double chainset. Big enough for anything from Road, CX or Gravel racing, 1x or 2x format. The facility to run a dropper post on 1x builds is still there too.

True CX bikes have been getting thin on the ground, so don’t confuse this with another long wheelbase gravel bike, trying to convince you it will work for CX (because they don’t). Team HUP has already spent 6 months racing and proving the new bike in Belgium, against the best cross racers in the world.

The HUP evo2 has held true to the geometry requirements of racing, chainstay lengths, wheelbase, stack & BB drop are not compromised, as they are on new generation of Gravel bikes on MTB tyres.

We’ve also made further improvements to our very easy internal cable, introducing port plates in place of the rubber ports. We still have full-length outer cables for maximum longevity in all conditions and our cabling continues to stay well away from your Headset, we are not going fully-integrated with a bike designed for proper CX racing. Same reliable, creak-free 68mm BSA BB too.

The new evo2 comes in 8 sizes (37cm to 58cm) for riders approx 120cm to 188cm in 4 stunning new colours including Highland Bronze, Electric Blue, Cherry Red and Brushed Aluminium with frame weights starting at just 1195g - CLICK HERE for more information...

HUP evo SL (kids & small adults)

The new HUP evo SL is the ultimate kids/small adult carbon-fibre cyclocross frameset, using unique XXS geometry to fit smaller riders on full-sized 700c wheels...

Lightweight, low-standover and low stack, this unique frame allows younger riders than usual to benefit from a superlight carbon-fibre frame. Thanks to the use of shorter cranks, these unique frames have lower bottom brackets, moving body weight down, improving the centre of gravity and increasing cornering speeds.

With a Japanese Toray T700 carbon frame and full carbon fork, the 37cm #HUPevoSL is the lightest frameset available, using the latest internal cable technology with easy fitting for novice mechanics thanks to full length internal tubing for the cables (using full-length outers). The red HUP evo SL above (37cm on TD35's) weighs approx 6.9kg.

HUP evo SL frames come in 4 sizes and start at 37cm for riders approx 130cm tall upwards, with a 40cm, 44cm and 48cm size too. The SL model uses a slightly longer top-tube to the Aluminium version, to increase the longevity of the frame for growing kids and the best bikefit for small adults. An addtional benefit of this, is to also make the frame perfect for road racing - a genuinely lightweight, all-year round bike.

But don't take our word for it, just ask 13yr old Rhu, riding our Yellow prototype for West Lothian Clarion. With his HUP evo SL (and a HUP evo pitbike) he had an astounding season, winning the UK's National Cycloross Trophy series (with a round to spare) and his regional series (Scottish Cyclocross Series) plus the Scottish Champs - all in the first season for a HUP evo SL.

HUP xc

The HUP xc is a lightweight MTB hardtail for cross-country racing, trail smashing or adventure fun times. Born and raised at the UCI MTB World Champs in Glentress, Scotland in 2023, it's a double-butted 7005 frame with boost thru-axles and progressive cross-country geometry. A rocketship of a bike for riders of all ages, whatever the terrain. 

Lightweight for the climbs, but still capable of the technical descents, as found on modern cross-country race courses and bike park trails.  The low standover/low stack gives riders the space to move on the techy sections and keeps their shoulders down on the faster sections. The silver HUPxc above (15", 29er) weighs approx 9.8kg.

With 4 frame sizes covering riders from approx 125cm up to approx 185cm tall, the whole family are in for a treat. In the case of youth riders, you can move their components to a larger frame as they grow, just like all HUP bikes. Parents also benefit from component sharing, life is simple with everyone on the same size wheels (and the same mech hangers!) plus future upgrades much easier too.

HUP xc24

The HUP xc24 are lightweight hardtail MTB's for cross-country trails, adventures or just plain fun. Born and raised at the UCI MTB World Champs in Glentress, Scotland in 2023, with a double-butted 7005 frame with the latest thru-axles, UDH hanger and croass-country/trail-focused geometry. A rocketship of a bike for riders age 5+

Lightweight for the climbs (we believe it's the lightest 24" Aluminium frame on the market), but still capable on the fun descents, bike parks trails or sweeping berms. The low standover/low stack gives riders the space to move on the tech sections. Big wheels for it's rider's size, kids-specific geometry (slightly slacker fork angle) and correct fitting components create an agile, responsive and seriously fun bike.

Frames fit riders from approx 115cm upwards with a low maintenance design featuring full length outer cabling (with option to fit a dropper post) plus the latest standards like12mm thru-axles, 2.4" tyre clearance and a tapered head tube - ensuring future compatibility. SRAM's Universal Deraillieur Hanger system (UDH) also brings the ease of a widely available hanger, same hanger as Mum & Dad! The silver xc24 above weighs approx 9.6kg with suspension.
