Specialized Command Post IRcc


While the original Command Post was a 3-position affair, this new one comes with ten for much greater saddle height adjustability.

The three main ones are still there and are super easy to find as you transfer from climb to trail to drop, but there are now 10 increments, spaced at 5mm around the mid-position – ideal for those who want a bit more trail tunability. While Command posts of old might have returned at a speed that left you wincing, the air spring is now easily accessible and ready to be adjusted.

At the lever end there’s the SRL (single ring lever), shaped like a SRAM shifter for ease of use on single ring bikes – otherwise there’s the usual bar top option too.

PRICE 375$

ENVE M50 29" Wheels

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.

Scott Scale 950

The Scale 950 uses the now traditional-for-cross-country 29er wheels to excellent effect, with a fast but fun character that's happy racing or railing.

Merida Big Seven 100

We've rolled up to our local woods, with a meandering blue trail, some natural wooded tracks and a bit of fire road chucked into the mix to see how the Big Seven 100 tackles trails that entry-level riders are likely to cut their teeth on.

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.

CUBE REACTION GTC PRO 27.5

Cube have kept their strong 29er race hardtail range for 2014 but added four new bikes with 650b wheels. The Reaction GTC Pro 27.5 is the second-tier carbon model.
