Mavic Deemax Pro wheels


Mavic’s ‘half-hearted’ wide wheel approach isn’t fashionable, but the new Deemax Pros are light and massively tough. Once you’ve added valves, the solid rim bed and new hookless sides mean an instant seal. Tyres are included, and the new 2.5in Claw up front is an awesome aggro all-rounder. Add super-stiff tracking, low-pressure stability and a 27mm inner width, and the front wheel can be ridden super-hard. The rear is much narrower (23.5mm), to improve rolling speed and make the back end easier to turn/slide. Mavic’s Quest rear tyre is surprisingly draggy too, and the narrower profile doesn’t damp impacts as well as the glueddown front. With a different back tyre, the ultra-reliable rear hub and low weight make this a very responsive, precise-feedback race or hard-riding option.

Width 27/31mm (f), 23.5/27mm (r)

Merida Big Seven 100

We've rolled up to our local woods, with a meandering blue trail, some natural wooded tracks and a bit of fire road chucked into the mix to see how the Big Seven 100 tackles trails that entry-level riders are likely to cut their teeth on.

Dave Hemming’s Fat Chance Yo Eddys

WHO IS DAVE HEMMING Dave first appeared in the mag in 1989 and, after becoming the first Brit to win a World Championships medal, was picked to ride for Team MBUK in 1991. He went on to race DH for several years, in-between numerous hare-brained feature missions. These days, he dabbles in everything from enduros to Ironmans, while working for Swiss/Italian brand X-Bionic. WHY THIS IS A SUPERBIKE? -A ’90s classic has been reborn -The original Yo Eddy is pure anodised retro radness -Its new counterpart is the perfect blend of old and new school, combining classic styling with an up-to-date ride It’s crazy to see how far things have come since the early ’90s. At that time, racing downhill on a hardtail with a 90mm stem and the seat up your arse was just what people did. While the technology seems primitive now, bike companies more than made up for it when it came to anodising! With its ‘aquafade’ paintjob, metallic blue parts and punk graphics, old-school UK racer Dave Hem...
