New for 2020 from Colorado-based clothing brand, Pearl Izumi, is a range of mountain bike protection. There are four products in the line-up, with two levels of elbow pad and two kneepad options (does anyone still wear elbow pads?).
Pearl Izumi has chosen to go for a minimal sleeve design, and eschewed cumbersome straps or zips in favour of a Lycra sock and wide, elasticated hems to keep the Elevate elevated.

CANNONDALE MOTERRA NEO CARBON 2
It’s got more suspension tunes than a Hitchcock movie, but will this Moterra thrill us or chill us?

100% GLENDALE GLASSES
When it comes to eyewear, having a large lens not only offers a lot more protection from trail splatter, it puts the frames further out from your field of view, allowing you to focus on the terrain in front of you. The Glendale is absolutely vast, and actually has a lens size akin to a full downhill goggle, so you literally can’t see the top or sides of the frame.

DMR STAGE 2 MTB RAIL SADDLE
DMR's new Stage 2 MTB Rail is one of those new/old products. The shape and construction are identical to the existing Oi Oi saddle, but the company has wrapped it in a new skin and added some harder-wearing reinforcement to the edges. It's also toned down the lairy graphics; this saddle only comes in plain black.
