Cycling Plus  |  October 2017
"We take to the road on six classy steel bikes from Ritchey, Condor, Specialized, Shand, Holdsworth and Reilly that prove there's life in the old metal yet, plus we round-up new rides from Wilier, Simplon, Specialized again, Carrera, Kinesis, Cannondale and Giant.
Elsewhere we mark the 200th anniversary of the first bike by taking a wooden hobby horse for a spin with the Dandy Chargers, come bang up to date to bring you the inside track on nailing a Strava KOM from 100 Climbs' Simon Warren, investigate the truth (or not) behind some of cycling's oldest adages, and ask whether it's time for you to go tubeless.
As the nights start to draw in (don't shoot the messenger!) we also check out 22 great lights to help you see and be seen out there.
Plus all the usual riding, nutrition, training and buying advice you've come to expect from the UK's best-selling cycling magazine."
