I’ve written reviews on the main pieces of equipment I’ve been using for mountain biking and cycle touring in the last couple of years.
We selected pieces of equipment before we got sponsorship, so we’re not big upping equipment in exchange for presents. We spent a considerable amount of time trawling through alternative equipment and the reason that the kit we chose has worked very well is because we read the reviews of previous cycle tourists about what worked and what didn’t.
Reviews:
Magura Odur Suspension Forks
Magura Louise Disk Brakes
Chris King Mountain Bike NoThreadset Headset
Kona Explosif Steel Mountain Bike Frame
Kona Caldera Aluminum Mountain Bike Frame
Brooks Leather Touring ATB Saddle
Sun Rhynolyte Hardcore Mountain Bike Wheel Rims
Schwalbe Marathon XR Long Distance Touring Tyres
Extrawheel Single Wheel Trailer
