HOW WE TEST THE KIT

Starts with a detailed product check in the workshop. We strip and rebuild, checking for any problems. Next we hit the trails… hard! We test in real riding conditions for the complete picture. And finally we re-test with another tester.

WHY OUR TESTS ARE THE BEST!

Our test team is made up of some of the most respected bike and kit testers in the world. We have unrivalled knowledge and experience, and spend a vast amount of time making sure we get it right. We tell you the truth and aren’t influenced by PR or advertisers.

PLEASE NOTE

All testing and photography for this issue was done before, or (in the case of some smaller parts and accessories) in compliance with, the latest government social distancing advice and travel restrictions.

ABOUT OUR TEST TEAM

Our technical-editor-in-chief, Rob Weaver, gets new products in as soon as they’re available and coordinates all the testing through our vastly experienced band of reviewers, who have decades of riding and testing experience.
