Singletrack Issue 110 For Kindle

The chill winds of winter will not keep us from the trails. Merino baselayers, waterproof outers, and a good dose of optimism will get us by. That and the promise of a roaring fire and a pint of dark mild at the end. If that’s not enough to warm your cockles, you’ll be needing a pie to go with that, plus the latest issue of Singletrack to help pass the time while you digest and defrost. PLUS  the Singletrack 2017 Calendar. Here’s what to expect:

International Adventure: Switzerland - Winter in Switzerland doesn’t haven’t to mean skis and snowboards. Sim checks out the growing fat biking scene there.

Editors’ Choice - Chipps and the gang pick out their very favourite products, events and locations from the year.

Interview: Tom Ritchey - Chipps talks to this man of steel (tubing) about framebuilding, fast racers and innovative product design.

Trail Hunter - Nan Bield - Tom Fenton adds one of the Lake District’s hardest challenges to your must-ride bucket list.

Dressing for winter - How can we best recommend winter gear for you? By starting with a shivering Australian, of course…

Bike Test: Battle of the Titans - Three bikes from the biggest names in the industry: Giant, Specialized and Trek.

Grouptest: 27.5in Trail Forks - Seven, 130-140mm forks for every price point tested.
