Birzman E-Version 20 multi-tool


SO GOOD
The E-Version has enough tools to fix pretty much any trailside emergency. Even a remarkably sharp knife is included, which sits in a safe position when not in use, along with a bottle opener just in case the only solution is to open a fresh brew while mulling over the repair in hand. There’s a Mavic splined spoke key and the chain tool is comfy and easy to use too.

NO GOOD
The number of tools contributes to the Birzman’s 55mm width, which makes it friendlier on larger hands than small ones. The square edges to the side plates make it slightly uncomfortable when used without gloves too.

PRICE 32$

Gusset Magnum stem

SO GOOD Gusset’s 50mm stem is nicely CNC machined from 7075 alloy and the faceplate and internal steerer clamp are available in a range of five anodised colours to complement the black body. The hidden steerer clamp keeps sharp edges to a minimum and removes stress from the body of the stem. Out on the bike, the stem proved flex free and bombproof.

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.
