Historically known for its pioneering drones and camera technology, DJI has entered the e-mountain bike space not only announcing its new Avinox motor but also a complete Ampflow e-MTB. And the brand isn't doing things by halves either as it says the the motor outputs 105Nm of torque and weighs 19.2kg. Here's everything we know about DJI's surprise entry into e-mountain biking.

SDG’s Tellis dropper post is one that’s gained a reputation for being super reliable. After six years the brand has brought updates to the dropper and while most of them are internal, the Tellis V2 continues to carry its notoriety for longevity while hosting more travel and greater smoothness. The new head design, however, throws an interesting curveball in a move that’ll work fine for many but be a real pain for others. 

It's been a minute since we've seen a new bike from YT Industries but, like Mondraker and the Dune, the brand has taken a lightweight enduro e-MTB direction with the all-new Decoy SN. Kitted out with big, enduro-type suspension travel and Fazua's Ride 60 motor, it looks primed to please those searching for 60Nm of assistance in an agile, gravity-inspired package.

The latest version of the Lapierre Spicy CF has already taken Lapierre Zipp Collective rider, Isabeau Courdurier, to the top step of the podium but the long-awaited update to the bike has one serious trick up its sleeve – it has a moveable pivot point. This will give riders the option of all-out downhill performance for rowdier and more technical venues or a better-equipped pedalling platform. Here are all the details.

Kona went through a rough patch during the first half of 2024 but everyone was able to breathe a sigh of relief with the news of Kona being re-purchased by its original founders. Soon after the acquisition, Kona is back releasing bikes with the new Process 153 and 134 mountain bikes. Here's everything we know.

The Shimano GE7 is an affordable option in the brand's recent gravity-focussed shoe range. Although it’s at the mid-to-high-end on the shoe scale, it's a solid option for those looking for an exceptional gravity-focussed clipless shoe.

Smith Optics is one of the great powerhouses of performance eyewear, and with the Shift XL MAG, the brand is flexing its prowess. This pair of riding specs has a crystal-clear lens with loads of coverage. Fog resistance is excellent, but the pricing places it among the most expensive options in the best mountain bike glasses segment.

Through the use of a super lightweight fabric, DHaRCO’s Men’s Race Jersey is not only a mega stylish long-sleeve MTB jersey but it's also ideal for big, exposed summer days at the bike park. It wicks moisture effectively and the fact the fabric is recycled is another plus. However, you’ll need to shell out for the luxury and consider sizing up for the best fit.

The Madison Flux Men’s DWR Trail Trousers work best in that grey area where it’s too wet for shorts but not cool enough for full-blown, weather-resistant pants. Owing to this, they’re a surprisingly versatile pair of trousers that pair top-notch breathability with water protection. I even reached for them during the harsh summer we've just experienced. While they tick a lot of boxes and pose reasonable value, the DWR coating washes away quickly and you might want to consider sizing up.

Built for ‘anything you throw at ‘em’, WTB’s Wavelength grips are incredibly tough to fault. They’re simple with a clever texture design that damps low-level vibration while rustling up plenty of traction and all-day comfort. However, the soft rubber does raise some durability concerns and I didn’t expect the price to be quite high.
