Winter is here in NZ, which means darker rides, earlier sunsets, and less visibility on the road and trail.

Whether you’re commuting home after work or heading out for late afternoon MTB laps, a good set of lights is one of the most important upgrades you can make this season. Stay visible, ride safer, and keep the rides going through winter.

We’ve got a range of front and rear lights in store for commuters and mountain bikers here at Burkes!

With daylight savings ending and the afternoons getting darker earlier, now’s the time to make sure you’re visible on your commute home. High viz jackets are one of the easiest ways to stay seen by drivers and ride safer through winter.

We’ve got a range of lightweight, weather-resistant high viz riding jackets in store at Burkes Cycles, perfect for commuting in low light and wet conditions.

The new Specialized Epic 9 sets a new benchmark for XC speed. Built as the lightest full-suspension race bike ever, it blends efficiency, control, and modern capability into one platform. With 120mm of travel front and rear, updated geometry for better stability, and reduced suspension friction for smoother power delivery, this thing is designed to fly on both climbs and technical descents. Pure race performance, refined.

Meet the all-new Specialized Turbo Levo 4 EVO — built to push trail riding further than ever. With the powerful Specialized 3.1 motor delivering up to 105Nm of torque and paired to a massive 840Wh battery, this bike is all about smooth, natural power and serious range for big days out.

The EVO setup brings aggressive geometry and long-travel confidence, backed by GENIE suspension tech that boosts traction and control while keeping things playful on the descents. Add in mixed wheels, SWAT in-frame storage, and full MasterMind integration, and you’ve got a bike that’s as smart as it is capable.

Climb faster, descend harder, and ride further — the Levo 4 EVO is built for riders who want it all.

Built for riders who demand precision and confidence on every descent, the latest RockShox Lyrik and ZEB Ultimate forks set a new benchmark in suspension performance.

The Lyrik Ultimate is the go-to for aggressive trail and all-mountain riding, featuring the Charger 3.1 RC2 damper for a wider range of adjustability and improved high-speed control. Paired with the DebonAir+ air spring, it delivers increased sensitivity off the top while maintaining strong mid-stroke support, keeping the ride composed through rough terrain.

For riders pushing into enduro and beyond, the ZEB Ultimate steps things up with a stiffer 38mm chassis, giving unmatched front-end precision when things get steep and fast. It shares the same Charger 3.1 damper and DebonAir+ spring, but with added chassis strength and ButterCups to reduce high-frequency vibration and rider fatigue over long, demanding runs.

Both forks are designed to maximise traction, control, and confidence, whether you’re charging technical trails or lining up between the tape.

The new Specialized Ambush 3 has landed at Burkes Cycles.

Designed for riders who push the limits, the Ambush 3 combines lightweight construction with serious protection. Featuring an extended coverage design and MIPS Air Node technology, it helps reduce rotational forces while keeping things cool and comfortable on long rides. The large ventilation channels improve airflow, and the adjustable fit system ensures it sits perfectly every time.

If you’re chasing confidence on technical trails without sacrificing comfort, this is a helmet worth checking out.

The ideal candidate will be capable of fully stripping and reassembling bikes, bleeding all current brake systems, building wheels and is up-to-date with diagnosing and identifying issues with eBikes.

Suspension knowledge isn’t a must but would be a bonus. You will need to be experienced in servicing bikes all types (familiarity with eBikes is a must, as this forms a rapidly growing portion of our workshop services). You must also be able to support frontline store staff with bike related queries and demonstrate excellent customer service.
