Lezyne Mini GPS bike computer GPS


SO GOOD
If you’re a technophobe or a weight weenie this could be the GPS unit for you. It weighs just 36g including the mount and set-up faff is minimal.

Just strap it to your bar (31.8mm or 35mm) with the included O-rings and hit the trails. It stays put over the roughest terrain, and provides all the key data, if you don’t need heart-rate info.

NO GOOD
It’s a little frustrating that you can only toggle through the metrics in one direction, and you have to go into the menu to reset the trip readings. The small screen makes it hard to see the data while riding off-road.

DRC X-Monitor SP1 lap timer

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.
