Mountain Biking UK  |  September 2018
In your new electrifying issue of MBUK we test four of the latest e-bikes to see whether their impressive progression and development is worth the hefty investment. We also look at six of the best folding workstands that will help you with all your home mechanicals and try out 15 pairs of clipless trail shoes to see which offers the greatest benefits on your next ride.
Staff Writer Ed Thomsett heads to Canada to take on one of the most testing mountain bike stage races on the planet - the Trans BC enduro. See whether he had to the mettle to complete it. Ex-pro BMXer Matt Roe shows us why he's switched to mountain biking and thinks it's way more fun, while Scotty Laughland takes us on a tour of Italy's La Thuile region and finds his idea of loamy singletrack heaven.
Plus we have great routes for you to try in Cornwall, Scotland, Snowdonia and the Dark Peak, plus we go for a blast round Afan Forest Park to see if it still has the thrill of years gone by.
