Leatt DBX Mtn Lite 2.0 hydration pack


SO GOOD... Leatt have been fastidious when it comes to attention to detail. Large straps hold this pack in place really comfortably and won't interfere with chest-mounted action cams.

Cross-body tube routing makes it easy to grab a drink from the 2l bladder, the bungee cord is useful for stowing pads and it's the only pack on test with back protection.

NO GOOD...We removed the spine guard to save weight and help dissipate heat. Double T-clips on the straps can make it fiddly to get on/off, and we quickly got fed up with the mouthpiece cover.

Price 120$

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.

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. Instantly, the big bold logos on each rim scream "fast", "light" and to some extent, "expensive" The kids call this 'bling'.
