PRO Team track pump


We always expect expensive floor pumps to be built to the highest standards and the PRO Team doesn’t disappoint, with a well thought out design and solid build.

The double-sided head screws on to Presta or Schrader valves and is very secure despite taking a couple of seconds longer to fit than push-on numbers. The pressure gauge is accurate and easy enough to see. Thanks to the big-volume air chamber, tubeless tyres can be seated quickly, and when you need to give it some welly, the handle is comfy. A magnetic lock feature lets you pick the pump up by the handle without it extending – helpful when it’s in and out of the van regularly.

PRICE 112$

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.

KONA SHRED

With a reputation for no-nonsense ruggedness and a background in the always progressive and punishing riding of Canada, Kona have been building hardcore hardtails for longer than almost anyone else. The Shred is the most expensive bike on test but it’s a proper trail tank.

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.
