BBB AquaShield winter gloves

BBB AquaShield winter gloves

SO GOOD
The theme here is definitely warmth and the BBBs are oven-like in that department. They're extremely waterproof too and the elasticated cuffs further seal in the heat. The AquaShields also walk away with the coveted award for softest snot wipe on test. At this price, they represent great value too.

NO GOOD
As with the Enduras there's an unwelcome gel pad across the top of the palm, but here it's much thinner, so it's easier to grip the bar. The elasticated cuffs are a big chink in the AquaShields' waterproof armour, and the lining is easy to pull out of place when removing the gloves.

PRICE 55$

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.

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.
