We love to see videos like this, helping people navigate tyre choice for Cyclo-cross racing ... in this case tyre choices for sand, featuring the options from Challenge Tires, which we reckon are the gold standard.

If you're a 'cross racer - tyre choice and pressures is a rich seam of discussion and consideration, so you'll love this - whether you're an experienced racer or not. https://youtu.be/xxOtSrX8ZiY?si=tzUqI0jtKS3yZ8NY

Earlier this year Tom Marvin from BikeRadar took a trip to the Lezyne factory and had a go at making his own Lezyne LED light.

He got a fantastic insight into the quality and excellence that goes into every Lezyne product and this story's well worth a read if you've not seen it before: https://www.bikeradar.com/features/tech/let-there-be-light

We loved these pics from Markus 's recent bikepacking adventure through northern Scotland. He and his companions also took the opportunity to put the range of socks and gloves through their paces in autumnal conditions.

Markus's pictures are always great inspo for future cycling plans and we have a wide selection of the Dexshell range available now, highly recommended as we go into the wet months! 🌧🌧

The Cyclo-cross season is well underway in the UK and we're about to see top level European racing begin again. Cyclo-cross season is truly Challenge Tires season and these images from Challenge's library from last season are enough to get us excited about watching the World's best 'cross riders and racing underway again. We predict yet another great year from those choosing to race on Challenge!

The fantastic new Lezyne E-Drive is making some strong first impressions with the cycling media, including Bikerumor.com

"One thing I like about the E-Drive is the lever-lock Presta head. It’s a bit stiff right out of the box, but it’s still way quicker/easier than thread-on heads, and there’s no chance of me accidentally removing my valve in the unthreading process. It’s easy enough to unscrew it for use with Schrader, and a Clik head can also just thread right on, too." - BikeRumor

In a competitive market, Lezyne lights still outshine almost all others as this fantastic new award from BikeRadar shows with the Lezyne Strip Drive Pro 400+ being awarded "Best Overall Rear Light" in their big 2026 test. "Lezyne's latest update to the Strip Drive sees a flashing output of up to 400 lumens, a longer battery life and improved optics. Seven modes include two always-on, a pulse and four flashing options. Claimed battery life is between 5.5 and 80 hours."

Excellent to see our friends Singletrack Mountain Bike Magazine are about to take a closer look at the terrific ABUS Cycling Youdrop FF convertible full face helmet for kids - it's a great option for all kinds of off road riding for kids, from BMX, to pump tracks to mountain bike trails.

We'll look forward to the full review (and we have good stocks of these too): https://singletrackworld.com/2026/09/fresh-goods-friday-826-the-shaking-milk-edition/
