Chromag Lynx DT trail saddle


SO GOOD
Sitting on the Lynx DT is like slipping on to your favourite bar stool – it’s that comfy! The padding is softer and thicker than most, which makes long days out a doddle.

The lengthy profile means this comfort doesn’t come at the cost of technical manoeuvrability. It’s a fantastic seat for longer-legged trail bikes and riders who want to recover on the climbs rather than attack them.

NO GOOD
With chromoly rails, the Lynx DT is the portliest saddle here at 295g. We also found that after several gritty winter rides the colour began to scuff off the lower sections – disappointing at this price.

PRICE 95$

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.

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'.
