Escape By Bike
We got a short message from our in-house adventure rider and bike packer Josh Ibbett to check out this new read from writer Josh Cunningham. As a former writer for Cyclist Magazine and Bikes etc, this short 264page read takes us through traveling around the world on (you guessed it) a bike!

READER'S RIDES: Bowman Pilgrims Disc & Mason Bokeh

650B SHOWCASE

This week, we're bringing you not one but two rides, to celebrate the expansion of our 650B range. The first, a Bowman Pilgrims Disc, shows off our new no-compromise AdventureCarbon Disc. Secondly, we have Josh Ibbett's own personal Mason Bokeh in world-touring form, featuring the AdventureDynamo Disc...

ON THE DROPS INTERVIEW: Sam McCallum

ON THE DROPS INTERVIEW: Sam McCallum

Sam McCallum

Sam is our very first OpenDev member from Australia. Having caught our attention for his 5.5w/kg output and being the head coach at @Velo.Goals, the Melbournian spends a lot of time on the bike and helping others do the same. This season, Sam has already competed in the Aussie Nationals after returning from a winter spent in Thailand (Yes, you read that correct – even the Aussies escape their own winter!).

READER'S RIDE: Sam's Neil Pryde

READER'S RIDE: Sam's Neil Pryde

Many moons ago, bikes were simple in their appearance often only with their maker's name adorning the downtube and maybe a stripe or two. And OpenDev rider Sam McCallum's ride is no different - but that is where a homage to the past stops for Sam's Neil Pryde Bura SL.

We recently featured the Bombtrack Hook EXT-C, but for this weeks Reader's Ride, we are going to shake it up a little and delve into a very specific setup. This week's rig is what Hunt-supported adventure rider, Joachim Rosenlund, used to complete his first 550-mile Scottish Highland Trail epic in 5days, 18hours and 18minutes.

CASSETTE 12
This week's edition of The Cassette comes from Adventure Syndicate rider Jenny Graham. Because Jenny rides a long way she decided that single tracks were not suitable and instead gave us five albums! Fitting when your spending days on riding across a mountain range or through an entire country.

THE CASSETTE #11: Proper Aero

THE CASSETTE #11: Proper Aero

The Cassette #11

There are many secrets behind aerodynamic testing, but there is also one major oversight made when searching for those elusive #aero gains. That is, what songs are scientifically proven to be more aerodynamic than others. That's right, you heard it here first...

#REDEFINEWIDE AERO TESTING EXPLAINED: WHEEL ENGINEER LUISA GRAPPONE WEIGHS IN ON RESULTS

#REDEFINEWIDE AERO TESTING EXPLAINED: WHEEL ENGINEER LUISA GRAPPONE WEIGHS IN ON RESULTS

Hunt Aero 1

Aerodynamics has long been something considered inaccessible to many riders. We want to change that. Up until now, only very few have released results yielded from wind tunnel testing. After travelling back from the GST Gesellschaft für Strömungsmeßtechnik mbH (more commonly known as the Airbus Wind Tunnel as used by Canyon) in Southern Germany, Luisa has since reviewed the results marking the next step forward. Now she explains exactly what happens.

READER'S RIDE: Josh's Mason Definition

Mason Definition
We have featured Josh's Mason Definition and three years on make no apology for featuring it again. After dropping a line to Josh only yesterday asking if he could take a photo for this weeks Reader's Ride - no cleaning, no swapping out of different parts, just how it was since the Transcontinental Race (TCR). 

THE CASSETTE MIX: SONGS FOR RIDING AT 2am

CASSETTE MIX #10
You have read what wheels to use for the TCR, but what about something to keep you company in the darkest time of the night? This week's Cassette Mix comes from Josh Ibbett who has sent us over five songs (plus a few bonuses) which keep him rolling through the night.
