DMR’s DeathGrip has been a rider favourite for close to a decade, cementing its place as one of the best mountain bike grips you can buy. The OG Deathgrip was developed by all round UK shredders Brendan Fairclough and Olly Wilkins, who unashamedly robbed elements from grips already on the market. Ironic really when you consider how many times Brendan has been robbed of a result at RedBull Rampage over the years!  Taking the knurl and waffle design of ODI’s classic Ruffian and combining it with DMR’s own mushroom pattern Sect, the DeathGrip was a hit with riders. Comfortable, grippy and endlessly stylish with its huge range of colours. There wasn’t much to complain about.  But how do you improve on an all-time favourite? You keep what makes it great and refine any rougher edges.

Peaty's, the renowned mountain bike component company founded by Steve Peat, has launched their first ever grips, the Monarch Grips. Designed with a focus on comfort and control, the Monarch Grips aim to be your perfect companion on the trail.

The world of enduro is a relentless assault on rider and machine. Every descent pushes the limits of suspension travel, every rock garden threatens to unsettle even the most composed rider.

Cyclocross season is here, mud pluggers rejoice!! Cyclocross racing can be amazing fun, but it pays to have the right rubber for job. Wet, muddy and grass-filled courses bring up their own challenges, so having tyres to suit the conditions can make or break your race. With gravel bikes growing in popularity and a number of winter gravel events on the calendar, you can even turn your racing focus to the path less pedalled, whether that be for a gravel race or if you just want to explore gravel roads in the wintertime. We’ve picked out our favourites in this cyclocross race and gravel tyres guide to help you stay rubber side up this season!

There is nothing worse than riding an uncomfortable bicycle saddle. Like, literally nothing. It can ruin your ride, ruin the bike, ruin the road or trail… They’re just a pain, literally and metaphorically speaking. But how do you find the right one for you?  Saddles can be very personal, so it pays to experiment a little bit, as well as dispel a few saddle myths. First off, more padding and width do not automatically mean a saddle is more comfortable and supportive. In fact, more of either or both can be a BAD thing! So don’t assume you need a sofa of a sofa in order to comfortable, or that saddle that looks closer to a razor blade is going to uncomfortable.
