In celebration of the 25th year of Ritchey's Swiss Cross cyclocross bike, the brand announces the launch of a limited edition bike based on the original but with disc brakes and room for larger volume tyres. There's only 100 available in red though so you'll need to be quick!

New dropper posts released by OneUp Components range from 100mm to 210mm and have short overall lengths meaning you are more likely to be able to fit one of these in your bike and get a long drop too. 

For its tenth year TweedLove Bike Festival has undergone major changes with a new name, a new location, new partnerships and a major new line-up of events. Here are all the details for the new Transcend Bike Festival with links to tickets for the 2019 event. 

The Trek Remedy 7 is a long travel trail bike that sets a great standard for this category of bike. It’s reasonably well priced for a ‘shop bought’ bike, providing a nimble ride that will put a smile on your face. It's probably not the fastest bike you'll ride but it is a lot of fun!

We've got a top of the budget enduro bike in for test this week from NS Bikes, plus a different drivetrain option in the form of kit from Box Components to put through a long term test and lots more....

We first heard about the new Niner MCR 9 RDO full suspension gravel bike in its prototype form at Sea Otter last year when it was called the RKT 9 RDO. We've just noticed the radical new adventure bike is live on the Niner website and it looks like you'll be able to buy one soon.

Not a name you hear often but probably one you do know of, Box Components have sent over a selection of drivetrain parts for testing. A mix of Box One and Box Two kit, Rachael has put the gear onto her longterm Cotic Rocket, weighing it before taking a first look here.

The Aussie Grit Apparel Women’s Quartz 2 in 1 bike shorts are a lycra chamois and summer over short combined. The thin, flexible material is super light and breathable, the chamois is comfortable and then hem of the legs are shaped nicely over the knee. They aren’t quite long enough to pair with knee pads but for cross-country, gravel and recreational rides these are a good hot weather short.

DT Swiss' M1900 all-mountain aluminium wheels are a 30mm internal width wheelset with a budget price tag. Using different hubs but the same rims as the lighter M1700 wheelset, we did have a bearing niggle with our front wheel but the wheelset has on the whole been hassle free. They are still straight and dent free after six months of testing too.
