Endura SingleTrack (Limited Edition) gloves


The SingleTrack gloves have quickly become some of our favourites. This is down to the well-shaped, thin palm, which ensures you get plenty of feel and feedback from the grips. It doesn’t bunch when you’re gripping on for dear life either, and gets some useful reinforcement on the thumb.

There’s silicone print on the palm (though not much of it) and some on the index and middle finger too, which can give a bit of extra purchase in the dry, but gets a little slippery if your brake levers are wet. The back of the glove is a robust affair, with some added TPU strips to protect your most exposed knuckles. These are flexible, so go unnoticed while riding.

The thick neoprene cuff has a small Velcro tab to keep things feeling secure, though it can get warm on hot days. Considering the level of quality on offer, the price is good. Some riders may miss having a snot wipe, though.

Price $40

Scott Stego MIPS helmet

Scott’s top-end aggressive trail helmet is only available with MIPS, as the Swiss brand were early adopters of the system. The EPS extends low at the rear without clashing with the retention system and the strap attachment points are external to the liner, maximising the amount of material around the temples. This is the closest-fitting helmet on test, with very little clearance inside the liner. Despite this, and although the Stego has fewer vents than some other lids here, we never felt too hot-headed. Scott spent time developing the ventilation system using a wind tunnel and it seems to have paid off. The thin pads don’t offer quite as much comfort as some competitors’, and while the short peak is removable, it doesn’t offer any height adjustment. Weight 340g Sizing S, M, L Price $180
