Fabric Semi Ergo grips


Fabric now have a range of six grips. The Semi Ergo combines the hexagonal pattern and medical-grade silicone construction of their Silicone grip with a fattened centre and subtly flared outer end.

It’s not angle-specific like a winged or off-centre grip, so you can still adjust hand position easily. The silicone gives good wet or dry tactile grip when clean, as well as a noticeable amount of buzz damping for extended XC/trail rides. It can get slippery when dirty though, and the ‘full handful’ feel won’t suit all, especially on rough descents.

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.

Canyon Spectral AL 6.0

Round two, and the 6.0 leaps out of the blocks. From the moment we're off the smaller wheeled Spectral wants to go flat out. Standing on the pedals on the small steep climbs is slightly more reactive, surging the Spectral forward that little more eagerly. We need more body language to get the wheels over the roots, but again the 2.4in Mountain King's tread impresses.
