Reviews
Stan’s Incredible Dart tyre repair tool saves me dumping holed tyres in the bin, and that makes it worth the bonkers pricetag
I’ve tested hardtails for over 20 years, Whyte’s new Secta RS is the best bike out there under £1,500
Smith’s Forefront 3 is about the comfiest helmet I’ve ever strapped on, but it’s not as breezy as the cheaper Payroll
Cube’s Reaction hardtail is bulletproof: designed for agility and muddy tech, it’s ideal as a winter hack
The new Scott Gambler has a 6-bar linkage, hides its shock inside the frame, and can be configured in 36 different ways – but is it too complicated for the weekend warrior?
