Truflo Mountain CNC Flex Mini Pump


SO GOOD…
We’re big fans of the Truflo’s flexible pump head, which can be swapped between Presta and Schrader fittings with a simple quarter turn, and it works well on both valve types too. At 245mm long it’s easy to stow, the alloy body feels like it’s built to last and we like the rubber cap to keep dirt out of the head. Though the air volume is small, there’s little resistance in the pumping action so it’s not exactly tiring.

NO GOOD…
The small air volume did mean we only reached 7.4psi in the 100-stroke test. This means you’ll be sat trailside for a bit longer if you get a puncture.

PRICE: 47$

RockShox Pike 26

Waaaay back in 2002, RockShox revolutionized the suspension world with the release of its Psylo range of forks. The forks came with 30mm stanchions, a lockout/compression adjustment, the travel was adjustable from 80-120mm, and......wait for it, they came with a quick release 20mm through axle.

CANYON NERVE AL 8.0

  S ince their entry into the UK market a few years ago, Canyon have made a name for themselves as purveyors of well-made bikes that exhibit often extraordinary value. The secret (or catch, depending on your point of view) is that the brand don’t have dealers – they ship bikes directly to your door.

Cannondale Trail SL 29 SS

The fat aluminium tubes are a constrast to the skinny items seen elsewhere in the test, but this rigid Cannondale uses them to create one of the most old-school - and lightest - rides here.
