    It might have a railway up the side and a cafe at the top, but Snowdon is a proper mountain. As I found out recently when I attempted to ride…

    Maxxis High Roller 3

    The new Maxxis High Roller 3 tyre is consistent, predictable and insanely grippy, but it’s painfully slow rolling if you don’t have the gradient

    • February 5, 2025

    Penthouse Flat pedals were the first product Burgtec ever made. Originally a massive chunk of alloy, designed to be pretty much unbreakable, over the years they became a lot thinner…
