January’s issue of MBR is in shops now, and celebrates everything we love about riding in winter. Here’s why you need to pick up a copy:

  • We’ve got the muddy season covered with our ‘we love winter’ special: Everything from winter tyres and mudguards to technique and winter hackers, to help keep you out on the trails over the next few months.

  • The start of the new year sees a shake up of our long term fleet. The Giant Trance XW and Genesis Fortitude Singlespeed kick off 2013.
  • Steve Peat gives the lowdown of the best trails in and around Sheffield.
  • Expert guides on how to jump and tackle gradient changes will transform your technique on trails and downhill.
  • Epic pictures of the coastal trails of North Wales and Kinlochleven’s Enduro that have to be seen to be believed.
