Nukeproof Horizon Sam Hill Ti pedals


IF THE STANDARD Horizon Sam Hill flat pedals aren’t quite trick enough for you, then these might be just the ticket. What do you get for the extra 142$ though? Quite simply, these don’t weigh as much, offering a saving of around 75g thanks to the titanium axle.

That aside, you get the same well shaped, concave 100mm platform that’ll host a wide Five Ten shoe with no fuss. The length of the three pins at the front and rear can be adjusted by removing a washer at their base, so there are no worries when it comes to the level of grip on offer. In fact, these are some of the grippiest flat pedals we’ve ever tried. Even after we ripped one of the pins out in a crash they still provided glue-like traction in the rough.

You’ll need to be a real weight weenie with deep pockets to take these over the much cheaper Horizon Sam Hill (120$) or Horizon Pro pedals (112$) though.

Price 262$

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.
