We’re incredibly proud to support our Hiplok athletes. Without their bicycles and equipment, our athletes cannot do their day jobs, or indulge their passion for riding. Keeping their gear safe is imperative and the feedback they provide is a vital part of our product development process.
BEN DEAKIN
Former Royal Marine Commando and elite mountain biker Ben Deakin is as equally known for his YouTube exploits as he is for his riding. Regularly tearing down mountains, his riding passion is as noticeable as his habit of sending huge whips over jumps. Ben knows the heartache of previous bike theft and that’s why he now chooses Hiplok to lock up his pride and joy.
MEG MCDONALD
GB Triathlete, Meg McDonald races Elite, Relay Team and Off-Road Triathlon. She’s often seen on long training rides around Hiplok’s home town of Leamington Spa. And when she’s not in the saddle, she locks down her bike cave with Hiplok.
OSCAR KELLY
After being banned from cycling to school by his parents due to his deteriorating eyesight, Oscar (Left) took up triathlon and fell in love with the sport. Whilst he was initially unclassifiable under paralympic rules (”I wasn’t blind enough”), in 2021 Oscar began competing for Great Britain and was selected for Team England at the 2022 Commonwealth Games. Oscar and guide Charlie are now working towards Paris 2024 Paralympics qualification.
CHARLIE HARDING
