    Revealed: this is our Mountain Bike of the Year for 2026 – and how it beat five of the latest eMTBs | BikeRadar (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Having revealed our 2026 Road and Gravel Bike of the Year winners last week, we're now turning our attention to our annual Mountain Bike of the Year test, with the Atherton S.170E.2 crowned as the winner. The progression in eMTB tech – and how quickly the bikes are changing – meant we simply had to focus on these complex machines for our 2026 test. This year has all been about big-travel, heavy-hitting bikes that feature a variety of motors, each with different traits. With that in mind, we pull

    POC’s Barocon Carbon helmet is rated to US motorbike standards but built for downhill MTB | BikeRadar (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    We all know downhill mountain biking is dangerous, but with the tracks getting faster and tougher, protecting our heads is more important than ever. That’s why POC’s latest full-face helmet, the Barocon Carbon, is rated to the US DOT FMVSS 218 motorcycle standard. It’s not the only helmet to receive that rating, though, and doesn’t come cheap at £730 / $900 / €800, but at 1,074g in size medium, it is one of the lightest. Aside from the safety credentials, there’s a lot going on with the new Baro

    Santa Cruz Tallboy XT Di2 vs Forbidden Reya Tier 2 head to head | BikeRadar (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Despite cross-country bikes becoming ever more capable and fun to ride, there’s still a place in the market for short-travel trail or downcountry bikes. Whatever it is you prefer to call them, these bikes often offer up a similar amount of suspension travel to their XC counterparts, feel almost as sprightly and efficient on the trail, but come with a burlier, longer-travel fork and tougher kit. The Forbidden Reya and Santa Cruz Tallboy are incredible examples of this type of bike. While the Reya

    Fox Ranger pants review: I spent a year riding in these MTB trousers because they're brilliant | BikeRadar (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The Ranger pants are Fox’s do-it-all, more affordable trail offering, made from a lightweight, four-way stretch ripstop nylon fabric. Like the pricier, more race-focused Flexair kit, the Ranger pants get a tailored cut, although there’s a little more room to breathe in these compared to their pricier counterparts. Fox updated the Ranger series last year, making some well-considered changes to the fabric and closure mechanism. On the bike, they outperform their predecessors. Comfort is hard to fa

    SRAM Maven B1 Ultimate brakes review: they'll suit more riders with their better modulation and improved lever feel | BikeRadar (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    SRAM’s updated Maven B1 Ultimate brakes offer a lighter lever feel, while retaining the same top-end power as the previous iteration. According to SRAM, some riders struggled with the punchy brake feel of the original, saying too much effort was needed during the initial lever pull. The update to the SwingLink cam mechanism and lever seen on these latest Maven B1 brakes rectifies that and they can be retrofitted onto the original stoppers, should you wish. On the trail, the Maven B1 delivers as
