The Santa Cruz Chameleon is designed as do-it-all hardtail that’s just as happy being loaded up with bikepacking kit as it is when faced with fast singletrack. During testing, it’s proven to be just as versatile as promised demonstrating incredibly fun trail manners when you're smashing singletrack or munching miles. However, such a capable and engaging ride comes at quite the price.

Today, Pirelli has launched its revisions to the Scorpion enduro and e-mountain bike tyre range. Not only have they been designed and evolved to boost performance for all disciplines, but the brand has added a new rubber compound, and a burly ProWALL casing option has been added to the enduro tyres. The M tyre's tread has also seen a redesign.

Benefitting from a lot of tech found on the brand’s range topping DH-R brake, TRP’s Trail EVO stoppers produce enough power to slow even the weightiest of bikes with impressive consistency. However, the lever feel won’t suit everyone and they’re certainly not the lightest options in the best mountain bike brakes category.

Today, Lapierre celebrates 75 years in the biz, and to commemorate the milestone anniversary, the brand has launched three bikes (including one road) rocking a special edition colourway. The off-road rippers draped with the fresh colours are the XR and the Overvolt AM.

Another week, another 5 cool things! This time around, we've got an elastic titanium bottle, some aggressive mixed conditions tyres along with some tyre inserts made in the Lake District. We've also got a blingy stem and some budget-friendly glasses. Take a look.

The brand new Fuel EXe from Trek claims to balance the line between an acoustic mountain bike and a full e-bike, claiming to have developed the world's most invisible assist. It gets a motor designed by TQ, a 360Wh battery, and is said to weigh just 18.4kg. Here's everything you need to know.

American Classic has re-entered the mountain bike tyre market, introducing four brand new tyres for downcountry through to enduro use. With the new tread patterns, there are three different constructions allowing the brand's new range to cover a range of bases.

Pirelli has launched the latest addition to its tyre lineup, the Cinturato Gravel RC. It's a racing version of the much-loved Cinturato Gravel tyre, designed especially for modern gravel races.
