Oakley Proven MX goggles


SO GOOD
We re big fans of the Proven MXs thanks to their shape, which fits perfectly inside angular modern full-face helmets. The build quality is just as you'd expect from Oakley, meaning they should cope with a good couple of years of abuse. The excellent fit of the frame in a full-face helmet, combined wth the triple-layer face foam, makes them one of the comfiest goggles on test. Lens clarity is fantastic too.

NO GOOD
The Provens do lack some of the features found elsewhere, like strap outriggers, and a roll-off kit which costs an extra 50$.

PRICE 58$

EVOC Bike Bag Pro

While Ryanair or Easyjet will never be bywords for glamour, at least your bike can fly in style with the new EVOC Bike Bag Pro.

Alpinestars Stratus gloves

The Stratus gloves from Alpinestars offer a decent amount of protection from the cold and wet without compromising control at the bars.

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.

iXS Asper BC shorts

THEY AREN’T CHEAP, but these well made and feature packed shorts are the epitome of classic mountainbike-specific functionality, and on the bike they don’t disappoint.

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.
