Those Lifeline hex keys are an outrageous rip off of the Park ones. I might just grab a set.

Topeka rocket ratchet as a fidget spinner....

... Actually that's fairly accurate if I happen to have it on my desk.

That's what I was thinking. At half the price as long as they're not made of cheese, it looks like a good buy.

The inner tube and CO2 cartridges are not even included. You get tyre levers, an inflator and a small multitool in the bag.

Good grief!

Hmmm, so what tat can I flog with a gravel prefix for a huge markup?
Gravel socks? Gravel pencils? Gravel snacks? Gravel Gravlax?

Dear lord, the gravel tax seems to be even higher than the old enduro tax!.

Cringe.

One hundred and thirty five pounds from Wiggle! Is it Christmas Day, or April Fools' Day?

No made of cheese - I have a set as the Park were out of stock everywhere.
Really impressed - nice tight fit etc.

This isn’t a portable washer (they don’t really work, trust us, you’re better with a bucket and a brush).

Erm..you've obviously never used a Worx Hydroshot then!
Perfect portable washer, less than £100, and works brilliantly!

Yep, I thought exactly the same - superb piece of kit!

I agree - just got a Hydroshot and its been a game changer moving from bucket and sponge (especially 4 bikes after a CX race)!

dozen things that any mountain biker will appreciate. You’ll not be subtly asked if you kept the receipt for any of these surefire suggestions.

I disagree when it comes to a non-portable pressure washer, scales, or gravel kit. As would most people, I'm fairly certain. I guess this is sponsored, despite the lack of category?
