Ibis Mojo – (Very) Long Termer
Ed stole Chipps' Ibis Mojo and never gave it back. Here's what he made of it.
Minoura Bike Tower
Bikes, bikes, bikes, but where to put them all? Live in a flat? Got very little space? Need an answer to the SO's familiar statement "we haven't got enough room…
Clif Shot Bloks
Like the whole "Five A Day" thing, I'm aware that I should eat certain things more frequently than I do.
Endura Flyte Jacket
I bought this jacket back in the depths of winter and had cause to drag it out again a lot recently to protect me from the "Summer" weather!
Ortlieb Rain Hat
What to say... It does just what it says really. It's fantastic in a downpour. It acts like an umbrella for your head with the water flying off in all…
Merida S’Presso i8-D
When Benji moved away from The Valley last year (shock horror!) he suddenly found himself in the market for a type of bicycle he'd never needed/wanted before... a commuting bike.
SixSixOne Evolution Helmet
Benji has been doing quite a bit of "gravity riding" this year (something to do with reliving his youth no doubt). Here's the helmet he's been plummeting with.

Kriega R15
It’s a 15L version of the Hydro 3 - a much more useful space for most types of riding. One big main compartment with an old-school half-sleeve for a hydration…

Pace RC405
The RC405 is a floating pivot design; the rear triangle is attached to the front by two pairs of linkages (similar to Santa Cruz, Intense, Iron Horse and Giant designs).…
Santa Cruz Chameleon
Totting up here at Singletrack we reckon this is the fourth incarnation of the Santa Cruz Chamelon. Unlike its users, the Chameleon hasn’t changed a great deal over the years.…
Specialized Defroster Boots
A decent pair of winter boots is long overdue from the (other) Big S. In all other fields, they rival both Shimano and Sidi in popularity and (for me at…
Pendle Wheel Support Bike Rack
When it comes to bombproof bike racks the Pendle wheel support rack takes some beating. We opted for the Type Approval two bike model which attaches to your car by…
Petzl MYO XP
Not a riding light, but why shouldn’t your camping, walking and exploring lights not make the most of advances in LED technology too? Running off three AA batteries, the Petzl…
Geax Pit Stop Magnum
The Geax Pit Stop is a neat idea. You take a canister of CO2 but also fi ll it with latex sealant and stick a multi-fi t (Schraeder and presta)…
Extra Wheel Trailer
The Extra Wheel is basically one wheel hitched to the rear axle by a clever steel sprung bracket (you get both an adapted QR and 10mm axle nuts which will…
Royal Racing SP24/7 jersey
I must confess to being an unwilling tester for this garment. I’ve never worn tops like these before. Mainly because I think they usually look ‘goalkeeper’ naff. It was only…
Ortlieb MudRacer Saddle Bag
Ortlieb are a company who I regard with some reverence. Their Back-Roller Classic panniers have transformed my view of what it is possible to do without a car, so I…
