2019 Esker Elkat
While many smaller bike companies tend to produce very niche designs, Esker’s Elkat is a surprisingly versatile and intuitive Trail bike that should work for a wide range of riders.
2019 Mondraker Foxy 29
The Mondraker Foxy 29 takes a bit of a different approach to traditional Trail-bike geometry, and the result is a correspondingly unique on-trail experience. Check out our review.
Maloja FlurinM Multi ½ Jersey and BrailM Shorts
Maloja aims to make high-performance outdoor apparel without the monotonous styling that we typically see from other brands. We spent 3 months testing some of their MTB apparel to see how they performed, and here you can check out our full review.
Leatt 3DF 6.0 Knee Guard
When it comes to biking knee pads, you’re usually stuck choosing between very protective, bulky pads, or less protective, more pedal-friendly options. But the Leatt 3DF 6.0 combines elements from both those categories, so what’s the end result?
Race Face Next R Wheels
We’ve now put over 1000 miles on Race Face’s carbon Next R wheels, including everything from multi-day Enduro races to DH courses. So, how’d they do?
2019 Devinci Spartan
Devinci’s Trail bikes have historically occupied a versatile middle ground — pretty good on the up, and pretty good on the down. So does the most recent iteration of the Devinci Spartan continue this trend?
Marzocchi Transfer Dropper Post
After more than three months of testing, the Marzocchi Transfer dropper post has proven to be just as good, if not better than most of the other posts we’ve used.

The Marzocchi Bomber Z1 may be the best fork we’ve used when it comes to getting the most performance for your money.

Gregory has been making all sorts of backpacks for years, but how do their new biking packs perform? Check out our review of the Gregory Endo 15 3D-Hydro.
2018 Nicolai Ion G13 GPI
With the geometry numbers of a DH bike, the travel of a Trail bike, and a belt-driven gearbox drivetrain, the Nicolai Ion G13 GPI is probably the most unconventional Trail bike we’ve ever reviewed.
2018 Ibis Ripmo
The new Ibis Ripmo is supposed to occupy the middle ground between Ibis’s more uphill-oriented Ripley LS and their more downhill-oriented Mojo HD4. So does it really hit that middle ground? And where does it fall in the spectrum of Trail bikes?
Zerode Taniwha Trail
We always go in-depth, but this might be the most in-depth we’ve ever gone. Check out our review of the gearbox-equipped (no derailleur, no cassette) Zerode Taniwha Trail bike.
2019 Rockshox Lyrik RC2 Fork
Updated forks and shocks are often cases of evolution rather than revolution. But the new Rockshox Lyrik RC2 provides very discernible improvements over prior iterations, and you don’t need to be a world-cup-level racer to appreciate them.

Race Face Turbine R Dropper Post
Reliability. That’s what we really want out of a dropper post, and that’s exactly what the Race Face Turbine R has provided.
Race Face Next R Bar and Turbine R Stem
Frames and fancy wheel sets are super sexy, but let’s not forget about those bars and stems. We’ve found the Race Face Next R bar and Turbine R stem to be reliable, well-built, and versatile options.
Showers Pass IMBA Shorts and Apex Merino Tech T-Shirt
While they’re best known for their waterproof road-biking jackets, Showers Pass also makes some high-quality, lightweight apparel for the hottest days on the trail. Check out our review.
2018 Pivot Firebird 29
Our reviewer calls the Pivot Firebird 29 the “Firechicken,” because it’s a long-travel 29er that descends like it’s on fire, and has a speed limit that’s primarily defined by how chicken you are. Check out our full review.
Kenda Nevegal 2 Pro Tire
We thought the old Kenda Nevegal left a lot to be desired. But the Nevegal 2 Pro is far more compelling. Check out our review.
