RRP Enduroguard mudguard

RRP Enduroguard mudguard

THIS SIMPLE BIT of kit from RRP has proven itself to be impressively effective and a real bargain at just under 13$.

The Enduroguard is quick and easy to fit with the supplied zipties, and, usefully, can be fitted to the fork or rear triangle. Up front it does a really good job of keeping crap out of your face and your fork seals clean. It doesn't offer the same level of protection as some of the longer, more expensive offerings out there, so you'll still get the occasional mud splatter and some spray getting through. But it deals with the bulk of crud impressively well, leaving your vision pretty much clear.

PRICE 13$

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. Instantly, the big bold logos on each rim scream "fast", "light" and to some extent, "expensive" The kids call this 'bling'.

DRC X-Monitor SP1 lap timer

While smartphone apps such as Strava can be a useful way to keep tabs on your mountain bike rides, sometimes you just can’t beat the simplicity and instant feedback that a good old-fashioned stopwatch style lap timer provides.

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.

Scott Stego MIPS helmet

Scott’s top-end aggressive trail helmet is only available with MIPS, as the Swiss brand were early adopters of the system. The EPS extends low at the rear without clashing with the retention system and the strap attachment points are external to the liner, maximising the amount of material around the temples. This is the closest-fitting helmet on test, with very little clearance inside the liner. Despite this, and although the Stego has fewer vents than some other lids here, we never felt too hot-headed. Scott spent time developing the ventilation system using a wind tunnel and it seems to have paid off. The thin pads don’t offer quite as much comfort as some competitors’, and while the short peak is removable, it doesn’t offer any height adjustment. Weight 340g Sizing S, M, L Price $180

ORANGE 322

Since the 222 back in the early Noughties, Orange’s downhill bike has flown the flag for great British engineering. The 322 is the latest incarnation, and having been in the pipeline for a while, it should be a good ’un.
