Selle San Marco Concor Dynamic saddle


IF YOU'RE USED to a fat, flat saddle we can't emphasise how narrow this distinctively rounded San Marco seat will feel at first.

That doesn't mean it's a minimalist race shell that'll rattle your knackers on any remotely rough surface though, because deep padding and a central cutout in the shell (not the upholstery) give impressive comfort where it does contact your body. The rounded nose and rear and deep sides make it easy to slide around on without catching your shorts so it works well on technical terrain if you've not got a dropper post to get it out of the way. Protective bumpers and a carbon fibre reinforced shell add durability too.

PRICE 100$

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.

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.

Formula CR3 brakes

The CR3 features a cartridge-type master, which improves power and modulation, plus it is super simple to service: The self-enclosed unit threads directly into the lever body. I took apart our test set and had it back together and bled in 10 minutes with no special tools. Like Formula’s RO brakes, the caliper pistons are actually oval, making more surface area–and thus, more power–than round pistons, but simpler than a four-piston system. The CR3 is best suited for aggressive trail riding.
