Post-ride pizzas taste incredible, fist bumps soothe the soul, and the mud on your teeth tells you exactly how long you’ve been grinning. The perfect recipe for a guaranteed dopamine hit. Was it the new wheels, the suspension setup or those new glasses? No. It was something else. Something better. Something we sometime
Classic meets progress: Giro Chamber III or Giro Chamber TR? The Chamber III relies on the tried-and-tested combination of a Velcro strap and laces for hard riding. The Chamber TR, on the other hand, combines a precise BOA system with a protective ankle cuff. Which clipless shoe delivers the best all-round package on t
When was the last time you did something for the first time? Adventure doesn’t start and end on a bike. From October 14–18, we’re swapping bikes for horses, hotel rooms for nights under the stars, and eventually horsepower for horse power. A small crew. The Dolomites. A few surprises. And quite a few things you’ve prob
Weekdays: surgery lights, drills and fillings. Weekends: carbon, trails and a heart rate of 180. Sound like your life? Perfect. For our big 2026 cross-country group test, we’re throwing open the doors to our test garage and looking for two dentists who fancy swapping the surgery for half a day of rough trails, root car
Years in development on the World Cup circuit, the new Team DH is finally production-ready and brings Norco’s race platform to the public. With 200 mm of travel front and rear, five frame sizes and the much-refined HVP6 suspension, Norco aim to translate the race team’s hard-won lessons directly to the trail. We tested
There are garages. And then there are garages. Some smell of fresh paint and neatly organised toolboxes. Others smell of petrol and lawnmowers. Wade Simmons’ garage smells of chain lube, fresh tires and mountain bike history. An old Rocky Mountain rests between two work stands. Next to it sit Wade’s motocross bike, a p
KENDA are not necessarily the first brand that springs to mind when mountain bikers think of tires. Yet the Taiwanese company ranks among the largest tire manufacturers in the world, mountain bike rubber included. Together with MTB icon John Tomac, KENDA also created one of the sport’s true legends, the Nevegal. Time f
With the new Race Pro, MAGURA are not only looking to win over their existing fans, but also convince the sceptics. To do that, the successor to the MT7 comes with some radical changes: CNC-machined aluminium, larger pistons, a fresh look and several clever service solutions. MAGURA also promise plenty of power with li
Few riders embody modern freeriding as creatively as Vero Sandler. But her career didn’t begin on the sport’s biggest stages. It started with a shovel in her hands. We visited her at home in Wales to talk trail building, community, and why great riding begins long before the drop in.
MTB pants need to be comfortable, stay out of the way and take whatever you throw at them. But how does a newcomer fare when the trail gets properly rough? Can the €100 Volcom Ripper pants deliver just as convincingly on short casual rides as they do on full-on enduro tracks? We put the Volcom Ripper pants through thei
Undercover. The Trek Fuel+ EX lines up for our group test with a TQ HPR60 motor and 580 Wh battery on board, yet you would barely know it was an e-bike to look at it. Can this electric trail bike hold its own against 11 strong rivals?
Looks like a Fuel! The Fuel EX is one of the most versatile bikes in Trek’s MTB portfolio. With 150/145 mm of travel and a full 29-inch wheel setup, our test bike lines up as a classic trail bike. Change the rocker links and wheel configuration, though, and the platform stretches all the way to a long-travel mullet. Is
