Bike of the Year 2023
With a whopping 32 bikes tested over four categories – trail, enduro, e-MTB and budget – this is our biggest Bike of the Year test ever!
Steel City singletrack
We head up to the Steel City of Sheffield to ride legendary local venue Grenoside Woods with its most famous resident, Steve Peat!
Why are bike prices rising?
In this special report we look at the state of the MTB industry and discover the reasons why the cost of bikes has been on the up for the past few years.
Handlebars on test
We fit nine of the best carbon fibre and alloy bars and hit the trails to see which offers the best performance and comfort for trail/enduro riding
Throw down the gauntlet
In part two of our challenge series in association with Saracen Bikes, staff writer Rachel takes on the Mini Enduro at BikePark Wales with help from 2019 National Series champion, Becci Skelton.
And that's not all…
This issue of MBUK is jam-packed with all the latest and greatest bikes, product reviews and news stories from the mountain biking world.
