In short, the ENVE Composites Twenty6 AM wheelset is the current pinnacle of durability, stiffness, and weight in the all-mountain world.
First Look: 2013 Surly Krampus
The 2013 Surly Krampus brings back those good old memories of rallying rigid bikes with canti brakes; but instead of steep angles, long stems, and terrible tires, you're on a sweet modern machine.
First Look: 2013 Diamondback Scapegoat
The 2013 Diamondback Scapegoat looks impressive, with quite possibly the best off-the-rack build of any Gravity / Park / AM bike on the market. Eric Melson's been putting time on it, check out his initial impressions.
RockShox Monarch Plus RC3 Shock
The RockShox Monarch Plus RC3 is basically the best air shock that reviewer Kevin Bazar has ever ridden on any trail bike.
Küat NV Rack
The Küat NV is a solid contender among tray-style hitch-mounted bike racks, with a built in, legit repair stand that sets the NV apart.
PREVIEW: 2012 Knolly Chilcotin
After a long wait, reviewer Joe Hanrahan finally got a Knolly Chilcotin. While he continues to put it through its paces, here's a first look at the bike and Joe's early impressions of the ride.
Transition Trail-or-Park
The Transition Trail-or-Park has what you'd expect in a do-it-all jump / park / pump track bike, but it's the ToP's unexpected details that makes this bike stand out.
Best Mountain Bike Handlebars
You would be hard-pressed to find a bar these days that strays from the 8-9° sweep and 4-5° rise formula, but that doesn't mean all bars are created equal. Marshal Olson puts four bars to the test.
2012 Kona Satori
The Satori is Kona’s attempt to make an aggressive 29er trail bike in a full-suspension package. So far, it's been a lot of fun and a little bit confusing. Noah Bodman explains.
Giro Code MTB Shoe
The fit and power transfer of the Giro Code are definitely worth the price tag, but durability might be a concern IF your rides typically involve much hiking/walking.
UPDATE: SUNringlé Charger Pro Wheelset
For those looking for a solid all-mountain wheelset without dropping big bucks, the SUNringle Charger Pros are an attractive option. Just keep an eye on them at first.
Lizard Skins Knee/Shin Combo Body Armor
Reviewer Kevin Bazar has a lot of gripes with kneepads. A lot. So calling the Lizard Skins Knee/Shin Combo Body Armor "good pads" is a ringing endorsement. We agree.
Specialized Rime Shoe
The Specialized Rime mountain bike shoe was designed with more than just riding in mind, with a Vibram sole and stable foot platform for easier walking. All-mountain/enduro riders, take note.
POC Trabec Helmet
The Trabec is POC's first lightweight, in-mold helmet designed for the XC/AM/Enduro market. It's very well vented and offers good coverage, but its styling and colors might take some getting used to.
WTB WeirWolf AM TCS 2.3
The WTB WeirWolf 2.3 AM TCS is a sleeper in the AM genre, and it's definitely worth a look for its balance of speed, traction, and value. Plus it has ziggurats. Bet your lame tire doesn't have ziggurats....
