Lezyne Flow Caddy with organiser


Convenient on-bike storage for riders looking to ditch their pack

Sitting in a bottle cage, the Flow Caddy is a handy way to carry tools and nutrition when riding packless. The 'bottle' never shook loose in cages, unlike its contents, which rattle incessantly unless packed to the max. This should only be a problem for stealth riders though.

The screw top is easy to remove, and the opening wide enough to get your hand in. An organising pouch is included, which quietens things, but we found impacts on carrying capacity. Lezyne also offers the Flow Caddy without the organiser for Ј7.

A great way to carry youressentials should you prefer to ride unencumbered.

PRICE 19$

Merida Big Nine 100

Wit the bikes swapped over, we head out on the same loop again, this time on the 29in Big Nine 100. Whereas the Big Seven was snappy off the line, the 29er takes a couple more pedal strokes to get up to speed. That said, once it's up there, it's easy to keep the big wheels rolling, allowing us to cover ground with ease. The fire road is at times a little rough, and the bigger wheels roll over the imperfections so we barely notice them.

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.

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.

SKS Airbuster CO2 inflator

The alloy Airbuster has a large knob so you can regulate the flow of gas, a mechanical stop to prevent the cartridge being pierced in transit and a dust cap to keep the valve free of debris. While it works with Presta and Schrader valves, switching between them requires a fiddly change of the valve head. The thin rubber sleeve doesn’t provide much protection from cold spent canisters. You can’t insert much of the valve into the inflator head, so you have to be careful to avoid leaks. Price $33 w/16g cartridge
