The Leatt DBX 2.0 women's short sleeve jersey is a t-shirt style top with a loose fit and a casual style for summer riding. It's comfy and stretchy, but it's not as cool as claimed – and if you don't wear armour, you may want to size down. 

This is the Kinesis Rise, an electric 29er trail hardtail from the UK-based Kinesis. Powered by a Fazua motor, it's one of the new breed of lightweight e-mountain bikes – born from the British love of a good hardtail, will we love a hard hitting e-hardtail? 

We've got aggressive, e-bike ready rubber in from new tyre brand Wolfpack, plus more pumps and tools from Fabric. There's also a winter weather-proof pack from Dakine make to keep those snacks dry as well as a budget lid with MIPS from Lazer that comes in at just £60. Dig in.....
