Headlining this monster edition you’ll find all the low down on next season’s hottest bikes including Giant’s much anticipated Reign 29, as well as the brand new Rocky Mountain Slayer and Yeti’s big travel SB165. We’ll also tell you everything you need to know about the latest product innovations to hit the market from Zipp’s innovative carbon Moto3 wheels right through to Shimano’s super impressive ‘baller on a budget’ 12 speed XT and SLX groupsets. This issue we’ve got not one but two awesome pro bikes for you, taking a look at Aaron Gwin’s Intense M29 as well as Eddie Masters’ EWS winning Pivot Firebird 29. We sit down with the gravity queen of 2019 Tracey Hannah for a long and candid chat, oh and our cover star Richie Rude also gets the interview treatment. We’ll then take you behind the scenes at 2 of our favourite brands; ENVE and Maloja. Adventure wise we head to France and tackle the gnarliest Enduro race on earth, the Trans Provence, and then back in Oz we go head-to-head trail testing the burly Focus Sam up against the Focus Sam2 to reveal which would be best for you? Then get ready to power on as our new issue of [E]volution has you covered with the latest from across the e-Bike world including an exclusive test ride about Giant’s new ReignE+, and then we take a look at the best new releases from Merida, Cannondale, Commencal and Focus. Our resident e-Bike guru Will gives you a master class in how to jump, how to utilise your bike’s walk mode function and a guide of what you should pack and carry on each kind of ride. We’ll also explore how the central nervous system of an e-Bike works. Plus we’ve got a stack of other insightful and light hearted e-Bike related articles to keep you clued up and entertained. All that and much, much, more is awaiting you inside Issue 55.

First Impressions - Slayer

FIRST IMPRESSIONS // ‘20 ROCKY MOUNTAIN SLAYER // IF YOU SEEM TO RECALL THE REBORN SLAYER WASN’T REBORN ALL THAT LONG AGO, YOU’D BE RIGHT. IN FACT, THE SLAYER WAS RE-INTRODUCED DURING CRANKWORX 2016 AS AN MY2017 BIKE, COMPLETELY OVERHAULED TO SATISFY THE NEEDS OF AGGRESSIVE ALL-MOUNTAIN RIDING AND ENDURO RACING, RIGHT THROUGH TO BIKE PARK LAPS.

Tracey Hannah

Watching Tracey Win World Cup After World Cup This Season And Constantly Wearing That Iconic Overall Leaders Jersey Has Been Blowing Our Minds With Excitement. It Is Crazy To Think Tracey Hannah Is Now Considered A Veteran Of The Sport When You Consider That It Really Doesn’t Feel That Long Ago To Us That She Claimed The Junior World Championship In 2006 At Rotorua. (or Maybe We’re Just Getting Really Old And Nostalgic!?) Anyways, The Most Important And Amazing Factor In Tracey’s Career To Date Is That She Somehow Just Keeps Getting Faster! We Absolutely Love ‘our Little Trace’ Here At [r]evo And So This Issue We Thought It Would Be A Great Time To Check In With Her And Hear About How Her Epic Season Has Been Unfolding.

Liv X Stu Launch Women's Specific Mechanics Course

“Providing This Course Was Important To Us On So Many Levels. Despite An Increasing Number Of Women Finding Joy In Riding Bikes, There’s A Disproportionate Number Of Women Compared To Men That Are Working With Bikes. This Initiative Has Given The Participants A Huge Boost In Knowledge And Skills, And By Being More Visible In The Workshop And The Sales Floor, They Are Role Models To Other Women And Young Girls To Also See Bikes As A Viable Career Path. Here At Liv, We Do More Than Manufacture Bikes For Women. We’re About Making Cycling More Approachable And Appealing. Creating A Course Like This Means More Women Working In Bike Shops, Female Consumers Feeling More Comfortable In Those Spaces, Andultimately The More The Sport Will Grow. Supporting Women Who Have Invested Their Livelyhoods In The Industry Helps Us And Our Retailers Retain Talented Staff.” - Caitlyn Hargreaves, Australian Brand Manager For Liv Cycling
