Last weekend saw the DexShell sponsored Cateran Dirt Dash held in the stunning surroundings of the Cairngorns National Park.

Feedback from riders was very positive and it's a terrific event to look out for again in 2027, where it will also be sponsored by Lezyne and Stans NoTubes. Organiser and friend of Upgrade and Kinesis UK, Markus Stitz also took this fantastic gallery of images.

Pencil in the end of May 2027 for the next edition or visit Dirt Dash CC for all of Markus's great events.

The team at road.cc recently reviewed the Challenge Tires 4 Stagioni XP tyres, scoring them a solid 7 out of 10 rating them strongly for quality and performance but marked them down a touch for value.

They summarised that "The Challenge 4 Stagioni XP Handmade TLR is a high quality tyre that offers good grip in the wet, and is a bit more durable than the other handmade TLRs in Challenge’s range. It’s easier to fit too".

The tech team Cycling Weekly have chosen the Lezyne Sport Drive HV as the best budget hand pump on the market in their latest round up of best bike mini pumps for 2026.

With a 4.5 out of 5 star rating the reviewers found it "Incredibly efficient for a budget mini pump" and it is great value at just over £20 retail. We have plenty in stock now too.

It wasn't the only win for Lezyne either, but more on that another time. Here's the link if you want to browse but we reckon that you can't ever go wrong by choosing Leyzne! https://www.cyclingweekly.com/group-tests/best-cycle-mini-pumps-buyers-guide-114355 -best-budget-mini-pump

High praise indeed from Richard whose Verdict was "Sublime ride quality and excellent all-weather grip combine with impressive toughness to make a delightfully usable and suprisingly affordable tyre that benefits from careful handling".

In case you missed this great bit of recent content from our friends Lezyne. They invited Mountain Biking UK to visit the factory and even gave them a go and making their own Lezyne MTB light.

It's a good watch and highlights the sophistication of Lezyne's manufacturing and design. https://ride.lezyne.com/blogs/news/we-let-mbuk-loose-in-our-factory

The first review of the new ABUS Cycling Targon convertible helmet is up on The Loam Wolf website and it's good!


"I often ride with convertible helmet users who find that converting between full-face and half-shell modes is too much hassle, so they end up riding in one mode all the time. A compromise like this is a bridge too far for me, so I was interested to see what ABUS had done. Right away, I could see that the ABUS Targon has an edge over other convertible helmets. The chinbar quickly unclips thanks to the Speed Latch System, and it can be clipped back in without having to take the helmet off."
