    Product Review Revel Rail

    Once upon a time the mountain bike landscape consisted largely of road-bike derived deathtraps piloted by the brave and uninsurable cutting their own lines in a fledgling sport. Those lines filled maps, the bikes spawned categories within categories and today’s thrillseeker is as confident...

    Bike for Mrs Tubbsy

    So she recently announced she's keen to get a mountain bike. Which is great. I have spare bikes, but they're XL hard tails which are a tad too big and I think a dually would be a better starting point for her. What I'm thinking is stripping the parts off the Lynskey and buying her a frame to...

    Rotors rubbing

    Problem My new bike features boost spacing, but I wanted to re-use my old Hope brakes which have 6-bolt rotors. The wheel builder talked me into centre lock hubs with 6-bolt adaptors, as he said this would be more flexible. What I didn't realise was that this pushes the 6 bolt rotors a bit...
