Axiom Annihilateair G200A track pump


THE AXIOM ANNIHILATEAIR may seem crazily expensive, but this pump is certainly built to last. The sturdy metal base has metal pins to grip your shoes and a large, accurate pressure gauge.

The specially made lock-on grips make the handle super-comfortable if you're using it regularly and the air volume is large enough to seat all but the most stubborn tubeless tyres. The head is simple to use with both Presta and Schrader valves and the hose wraps past the handle and down to a clamp on the pump body when not in use. After a lot of hard use in a trail centre workshop, the action of our test pump is still smooth and it shows no signs of wear.

PRICE 138$

COMMENCAL EL CAMINO 3

Commencal are going from strength to strength at the moment and they’ve taken their tough trail hardtail bang up to date with 650b wheels. With its skinny rims, crankset and fork, the El Camino certainly isn’t perfect and it’s the least hardcore bike here. The handling, smoothness, speed and all-round agility of the basic bike still make it a real blast for technical trail riding though, and it’s a great base for upgrading over time.
