If you haven’t heard of them before, a Pinion gearbox is a fully-sealed oil bath of cogs located at the crankset that usually offers 12 different gear ratios. The Pinion gearbox eliminates the need for a derailleur gear system. Image: Panorama...

Eurobike is the world’s biggest bicycle trade show. And it’s truly monstrous with literally thousands of stands. I walked past every single stand so that you can see the latest products in the touring and bikepacking space! My iPhone says I did 15,000 steps per day (for five days) between the different halls. That’s a lot of walking… and a lot of talking too. I got the opportunity to talk to...

While the shoe is arguably the most important component of a clip-in system, it’s the pedal that makes the biggest difference when it comes to optimising the best flat pedal system. In this resource, I’ll be teaching you everything about flat pedal shape, size, pins, bearings, and much more. You will be able to apply my recommendations for on-road cycling where extreme grip is not as important...

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has historically been closed to outsiders, making it known to some as the ‘last great forbidden kingdom’. However, through sweeping reforms that encourage foreign investment and tourism – the country is now inviting independent travellers past its portals.

Panniers can be fast! Lachlan Morton recently set a blistering ITT time of 12 days, 12 hours and 21 minutes to get from Banff to Antelope Wells on the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route. For those who aren’t familiar, this 4296km/2670mi dirt road route traverses the length of the Rocky Mountains from Canada to the Mexican border.

Belts are used to run the blowers on 10,000 horsepower racing engines, the powertrains of 150 horsepower motorbikes, and more recently, the drivetrains of many bicycles. I’ve been an avid user of belt drivetrains on my bikes for about 12 years now, and have somehow clocked over 135,000km (~88,000 miles) on these chain alternatives. I’ve taken belt drivetrains up the world’s highest roads,...

The Surly Moonlander has just set a new maximum tyre width for bicycles: 6.25 inches, or 159 mm! This new fat tyre size allows you to run lower tyre pressures than ever before, increasing the tyre footprint on the ground, and providing more flotation over this world’s softest surfaces. You can actually drop the tyre pressure down to just 1 or 2 psi! The Surly Moonlander V2 can run as low...

The Kinetics MTBrompton is a new off-road version of the Brompton folding bike. Normal Bromptons use tiny 16″ wheels with 35mm (1.35″) wide tyres. This wheel size is key for providing the famous small fold, but it also compromises the performance of the bike in some situations – namely on rougher surfaces such as cobblestones, gravel roads and forest trails. But you no longer need to...
