Truflo Minoot CO2 mini pump


The Minoot is an excellent, ultrasimple backup to have stowed away in a pocket or at the bottom of your bag.

Compatible with both Presta and Schrader valves, unscrewing the cartridge starts the delivery of CO2, and vice versa (although there are no instructions included to tell you that).

The foam insulator protects your hands from the freezing metal without adding bulk, but beware of where you store it, as dirt and water can clog up the exposed Presta valve nozzle.

For the money, it’s an affordable extra that will get you rolling quickly if you’re against the clock, or when dusk is falling in the winter months.

Save weight when racing, or carry it as a speedy emergency inflator.

Weight 93g
Dimensions 120x25mm

PRICE 20$

RockShox Pike 26

Waaaay back in 2002, RockShox revolutionized the suspension world with the release of its Psylo range of forks. The forks came with 30mm stanchions, a lockout/compression adjustment, the travel was adjustable from 80-120mm, and......wait for it, they came with a quick release 20mm through axle.

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.

GT Zaskar Evolution

While some bike models last just a couple of years, others change with the times to stay at the top of riders’ wishlists. In the second part of this series looking at the evolution of bikes that enjoy enduring popularity with UK riders, we turn to the GT Zaskar – a bike that was at the forefront of our sport for a long time and still has plenty of appeal today.

Cannondale Trail SL 29 SS

The fat aluminium tubes are a constrast to the skinny items seen elsewhere in the test, but this rigid Cannondale uses them to create one of the most old-school - and lightest - rides here.
