Blackburn Wayside tool roll


This hipster-friendly package has four elasticated pockets with plenty of room for tyre levers, CO2 canisters, penknives and multi-tools. There’s also a zipped pocket that’s perfect for small parts such as master links and patches. A leather toe-strap-like closure prevents the tool roll unravelling. The tough waxed canvas outer ensures that this isn’t an accessory for the weight weenies out there – ours tipped the scales at 116g, rather than the claimed 91g. But if you don’t mind sacrificing low weight for durability and a hefty dose of style, then this is a great way to keep your kit organised.

Price $30

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.

THEY AREN’T CHEAP, but these well made and feature packed shorts are the epitome of classic mountainbike-specific functionality, and on the bike they don’t disappoint.
