Lighter is better. At least that's the assumption. Does it matter? Mike took a deep dive into the world of grams, watts and seconds.
We head out to unknown valleys to race a round of the Swiss Enduro Series. Find out if we survived!
We did a lot of testing this autumn. We rode the 4060 ST from SCOR and tried the Mullet Santa Cruz Bronson. We got our hands on Bold’s art object the Linkin 135 and gave CUBE’s Danny Hart replica the Two15 SLT a test. On components we review Magura’s MT7 Pro’s, Suntours Durolux forks, IndustryNine Enduro 306 V3 wheels, Riding Culture jeans, Enve M6 bar/stem combo and more!
The summer blitzed by, but we still have autumn!
On this test the Specialized Levo SL, YT’s flagship E-MTB the Decoy and Merida’s short travel racer the Ninety Six XT. We check out ION’s Rascal shoes, the Bluegrass Rogue MIPS helmet, DHarCO clothing and Muc-Offs revolutionary Punk Powder/Bottle for Life combo.
Just pictures with no purpose.
Key bike parks like Morzine and Saalbach are getting busier and busier. We head out to the relatively unknown spot of Gampel, where the people speak a strange language and the public transport gives bikers access to dusty singletrack goodness.
After edition one, we went out and researched the effect of high end disc rotors and various brake lever options on the smiles-per-hour.
Spring is a wonderful time, but not always as you envision it. We saw more lockdowns and snowstorms than anticipated.
On test this issue: the Merida E160 with the EP8 motor, Canyons Stitch360 pump track destroyer and the YT Jeffsy Core 2 27,5’’. We check out Earshot’s magnetic headphones, Bluegrass’ lightweight pads, shoes from Mavic and Fizik, and the Smith Forefront 2 helmet/goggle combo.
