CRANS MONTANA, SWITZERLAND
Crans Montana doesn’t ping on most UK riders’ radars. But that’s set to change after the organisers of the Enduro World Series got wind of the high-quality steeps, paid a visit and decided to hold a race here for the next three years.

LONGTERMERS
We’re Introducing a new e-bike to the longtermer stable this month: Giant’s Reign E+ 1 with its mega powerful Yamaha motor. Will it prove too much for the other e-bike in the game, JD’s Specialized Turbo Kenevo SL Comp, a machine in a class of its own thanks to its lightweight
motor and aggressive enduroinspired geometry? And check in for updates on the rest of the longtermer fleet, including the Nukeproof Scout hardtail, Focus Jam trail bike and Kona Process whippet.
