Dynaplug Pill Tubeless Repair Kit


As the most expensive kit on test,we expected the Pill to be a bit special – and weren’t disappointed. Housed in a compact, sealed aluminium capsule are two tubular insertion tools, five brass-tipped tyre plugs, a temporary air plug (used to reduce initial pressure loss) and a small knife. There’s also space for three more plugs. This is the easiest to use kit on test.

It’s expensive compared to functionally equivalent competitors. Fixing larger punctures isn’t as straightforward as with tools that fold the plug in half during insertion.

Price $60

Nukeproof Vector AM Comp Cro-Mo saddle

The Vector AM is pretty race focused, with minimal padding. There’s a deep (if narrow) pressurerelief channel to keep the blood flowing where it’s meant to. Used with bib shorts, we found it pretty comfortable for shorter rides and suffered no pain or discomfort in the central region. On steep climbs the slightly downturned nose provides a reasonable forward perch, while the svelte profile and smooth edges make it particularly unobtrusive when moving about on the descents. It’s quite stiff though, and can feel harsh on long rides or bumpy ground. We definitely wouldn’t want to spend much time on it without a chamois. It’s heavier than we’d expect for such a lightly padded perch too. There’s a lighter Pro version with titanium rails for $105, but at 241g it’s only 10g lighter. Weight 251g Price $67

ENVE M50 29" Wheels

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. Instantly, the big bold logos on each rim scream "fast", "light" and to some extent, "expensive" The kids call this 'bling'.
