Marzocchi 350 CR Fork


BENEATH THE MATT black finish and gold 35mm stanchions of the 350 CR lies a race-ready 650b fork designed for the demands of world-class enduro racing and the emerging progressive trail riding scene.

Its 160mm (6.3in) of travel is controlled by the new Dynamic Bleed Cartridge, which is designed to deliver the sensitivity – and quintessential Marzocchi feel – of an open bath system but with the support and consistency of a sealed cartridge design. With external compression and rebound damping adjustment, a tapered steerer and 15mm axle, all that’s needed is a bike and the terrain to really test what this new fork can do.

PRICE 800$

ENVE M50 29" Wheels

Utah based company ENVE have been making drool-worthy carbon components for some years now. Despite the fact that carbon rims are becoming more and more common on mountain bikes these days, you can guarantee that ENVE wheels will be a talking point when someone is eyeing off a steed.

Pinnacle Ramin

Bikes in the 750$ to 1500$ range have never been so good. However, on many of these bikes a suspension fork from one of the major manufacturers is too expensive, and the cheaper alternatives don't quite pull their weight. They tend to be poorly sealed and before long become almost rigid, hefty lumps of metal attached to your frame.

Canyon Spectral AL 6.0

Round two, and the 6.0 leaps out of the blocks. From the moment we're off the smaller wheeled Spectral wants to go flat out. Standing on the pedals on the small steep climbs is slightly more reactive, surging the Spectral forward that little more eagerly. We need more body language to get the wheels over the roots, but again the 2.4in Mountain King's tread impresses.

Merida Big Seven 100

We've rolled up to our local woods, with a meandering blue trail, some natural wooded tracks and a bit of fire road chucked into the mix to see how the Big Seven 100 tackles trails that entry-level riders are likely to cut their teeth on.
