Just in time for the bout of gorgeous spring weather we are all enjoying in the UK right now, we've got a myriad of riding glasses in on test. The sunglasses come from various brands including Lazer, Madison, Smith and Tifosi. Plus we've got summer riding wear on test from 7Mesh. 

These wheels combine WTB's KOM Tough i29 rims with Industry Nine 1/1 hubs to create a strong and fairly reliable build. The rear hub is especially good for its rapid pick-up, but at just over 2kg the wheelset is a little hefty. It's not tubeless-ready either, while there are question marks over longevity, with the rear bearings feeling ropey and needing re-truing before the test was over.

Madison Saracen are right, distractions is what everybody needs right now. Like most of us, the Madison Saracen Team feel like they’re close to completing the internet after a few weeks indoors, so they thought that we’d give you a distraction of thier own, with a video and first look at Madison Saracen’s new bike and kit for 2020.

The DT Swiss G 1800 Spline 25 is a bargain gravel wheelset with decent performance and premium looks. The hub has a slow pick up and the set is not especially light, but £350 for a disc-compatible, aero-spoked, thru-axle set of wheels with rims good for 42mm tyres is pretty compelling. 

The Bluegrass Eagle Solid knee pad is essentially the same as the Skinny pad we reviewed previously, but with added side protection and an extra velcro strap. It secures to the thigh better than its cheaper sibling, but is still bulky, stiff and potentially uncomfortable.

Taiwanese brand, MicroSHIFT have just launched two new drive trains, Advent and Advent X, the former is budget-busting whilst the latter is claimed to be lighter than Shimano XT whilst using a simpler 10 speed set up and producing a similar range. 

The concept is simple, download the Marin colouring book below, print off the picture of your favourite bike, colour it in and upload to Instagram! The best one will be in with a chance to win you very own custom Marin mountain or gravel bike. 

Welcome to off-road.cc's guide to the best chain lubes for mountain and gravel bikes. These wet and dry lubes have all been tried and tested by us in all conditions and have received a score of over four out of five in their review. 

The Castelli Goccia Jersey FZ is a women's road and gravel top that works well for autumn, spring and cooler summer days. It's warm and fleecy and has great style, but it's not particularly windproof, lacks a few details and is expensive.
