Continental RevoSealant


SO GOOD
Conti say this sealant is designed to work with their own tyres, but it performed well with our Maxxis test subjects all the same.

A thin latex solution with a thick sludge of particles to shake into the mix, the RevoSealant seals punctures in the outer casing very well indeed. Our 6mm hole was plugged within a few revolutions of the wheel, but started leaking air again once we reinflated the tyre to 30psi.

NO GOOD
While the thin Continental solution worked well on the tyre casing, we found that it struggled to seal holes in the sidewalls.

Price 45$ for 1l

Gusset Magnum stem

SO GOOD Gusset’s 50mm stem is nicely CNC machined from 7075 alloy and the faceplate and internal steerer clamp are available in a range of five anodised colours to complement the black body. 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.

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.
