We’re pumped (literally) to launch our first collaboration with cycle charity Pump for Peace who’s goal is to make cycling and action sports more accessible than ever before.
Pump for peace have paved the way (again literally) for the creation of hundreds of pump tracks across the globe, and this limited edition colour way will help them continue to bring beloved cycle sports to more people in underprivileged communities by donating £20 of every set sold to the charity.
Tried and tested by the Pump for Peace World Cup XC team riders Tumelo Makae of Leshoto and Faranak Partoazar of Iran, this limited edition Alleycat features a red flash arm design and a bespoke pumpforpeace inner arm print.
Every set includes a ZEISS high light lens, ZEISS low light lens, micro fibre bag and a hard case.

What is Pump for peace?
Pump for Peace is a global non-profit association initiated by Velosolutions. It wants to give kids in underprivileged communities access to cycling and action sports through pump tracks. Pump for Peace introduces them to a healthy, respectful and tolerant lifestyle and believes that this, ultimately, will change the world.
Pump for Peace also has it’s very own race team competing in World and National level XC races across the globe.
Team founder Claudio Calouri on the team: “The idea of a Pump for Peace racing team has been there for a while, but we didn’t actually plan on making it happen already for 2022. When Ariane found out that Faranak was struggling to register for the World Cups, she called me just two weeks before Christmas, while I was laying asphalt on a pump track at the Syrian border in Turkey: – Why don’t we register a UCI team to get Faranak to the World Cups? As you can see, I agreed, and as you can imagine, this was a tiny little bit late to look for sponsors, which is why we are going to announce them as soon as we’ve found them.”
