See? Autumn is great. Can’t you just hear the crunch of golden leaves under your tyres? Smell the rich aroma of fresh fallen conkers? Hear the whoops of delight on the trail ahead? Surely you need a copy of this on your coffee table to remind you to get out and ride while the leaves are golden.
Of course you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, so let’s see what other lovely treats we hav inside for you.

Group Test – Trail Brakes
Do you want to stop dead? Or need a little more finesse? Do you want bite, or butter? We put eight sets of brakes put to the test, with the best four getting the full review treatment in this issue, so you can stop when and how you want to.
We’re Singletrack and we’re not afraid to be different. In this issue’s Oddball, we bring you (street legal) knives for all those bike related – and sausage related – tasks, while columnist Jason Miles asks what lengths we’ll go to in future to enhance our ride.
