Syncros Matchbox 12 multi-tool


THE MATCHBOX 12 from Syncros offers a dozen handy tools for trailside maintenance. There are 2-6mm Allen keys, flat and Phillips head screwdrivers. T10. T20 and T25Torx keys, and a snap-on 8mm Allen key bit. Its compact 60mm length still offers enough to grip on to when tackling tight bolts but will fit in small pockets in your pack without any fuss.

Overall construction is nice and solid, and the bits are good quality. We're not fans of the 8mm snap-on bit living on the 5mm Allen key - we haven't lost it yet but would happily sacrifice the T10 and T20 Torx keys for a proper 8mm Alien key.

PRICE 30$

COMMENCAL EL CAMINO 3

Commencal are going from strength to strength at the moment and they’ve taken their tough trail hardtail bang up to date with 650b wheels. With its skinny rims, crankset and fork, the El Camino certainly isn’t perfect and it’s the least hardcore bike here. The handling, smoothness, speed and all-round agility of the basic bike still make it a real blast for technical trail riding though, and it’s a great base for upgrading over time.
