Cycling Plus | January 2020
Our main bike test aims to keep you riding outdoors throughout the winter with five great bikes that can handle any weather, and all featuring the mudguards you need to keep you and your mates comfortable.
For those who don’t shy away from the weather at this time of year, we also look at the technology behind the latest waterproof clothing to ask whether we are closer than ever to a garment that can keep you dry from both the outside and the inside… Plus we get pro tips on training in the cold.
For those who prefer home comforts at this time of year, we test 10 of the best, tech-laden smart trainers for racking up the virtual miles, and get some advice from pro riders on indoor workouts you can do to improve your cycling.
Talking of improving, whether indoor or out, we look at the training you should be doing now to deliver your best year on the bike in 2020… how to build your best form, and how to hold on to it.
We also feature new bikes from Specialized, Wilier, Vitus and more, plus we pit two SRAM Red-equipped stunners from Canyon and Ribble head-to-head to see whether buying direct really can deliver more bike for less.
