Shan No. 5 Wins at Steel City DH!
Another race, another podium! Massive congrats to Nigel Page, who topped the Vet category at Peaty's Steel City DH 2026 in Grenoside Woods, Sheffield, UK, riding his Production Privée Shan 5.
Steel City is one of the UK's best-loved races: a mini-DH with a push-back-up format, run by Steve Peat and the Steel City Series crew, drawing everyone from groms to vets down the same taped woodland track. It's fast, technical, and no place to be under-biked, which made Nigel's win a proper showcase for what the Shan 5 can do.
Built around a triple-butted 4130 chromoly steel frame paired with a carbon swingarm, the Shan 5 is engineered to do it all! Efficient enough to pedal all day, and confidence-inspiring enough to point down a DH track and race it flat out. That's the whole idea behind the bike, one machine that's just as happy on an all-day epic as it is on the start line.
Nigel knows the Shan 5 inside out; he's also our UK stockist, selling a select range of Production Privée bikes and accessories through No.55 Bikes. So if a Vet category win has you eyeing up a Shan 5 of your own, that's the place to start.
Nice work, Nigel, the Shan 5 is proving itself one race at a time.
