Here in the BCR office we argue about which is the best frames, components and clothing etc. but there are two things we agree on and that is the best pulse monitors (Polar) and our favourite sun glasses; Rudy Project. So when the new NOYZ arrived from Rudy there was the inevitable fight over them…and... 

If you want to ride comfortably and efficiently you need to own a pair of cycling specific shoes, you probably already know this if you have been doing a lot of cycling.

We have not looked at bike clothing for a while, so we thought now would be the best time.

We have had a look at most of the bags from Sci-Con and we have been asked to find where one of our readers could buy a Sci-Con Tubo bag, so we thought we had better find out more about this Tubo bag, it looks a good idea and if its made by Sci-Con it will be top quality manufacturing You need to have...

Sometimes we get it wrong at BCR and we are not afraid of saying it! We reviewed the Elite Evasion Hard Bike Case and said it was “probably the best hard box on the market”, but we did say that there is maybe a better one, but we hadn’t seen it, yet! Well I think we have seen it now,...

You will probably buy the chain rings for your bike with the crank set or the complete bike and maybe not have the choice of how many teeth you have on them. The thing to remember if you do have a choice is the bigger the amount of teeth the bigger the gear and less teeth for a smaller gear. On a road... 

It’s nice to receive things in the post and after I had taken the wrapping paper off, it looked like I had received an enormous pair of glasses from Rudy Project as the box is the same, but bigger! When I opened the box there was a helmet inside, and what a very nice helmet it is! Recently we... 

If you want to sprint like the Italian Super Star, Alessandro Pettacchi you need to do two things, get a pair of DMT cycling Shoes and, more difficultly, train for many hours over many miles for a long time, oh and have a special sprinters ability! My first impression of the DMT Flash cycling shoes... 

For nearly twenty years I’ve been looking at the road through Oakley sun-glasses, so I thought it was about time that I tried some other brand to “see” what it’s all about. Two pairs of Rudy Project glasses were soon next to my laptop for review and, well, they are very good,...

There isn’t much new in the world of cycling and when something pops-up it has to be something really special or very different to get me excited. Bio-Racer, the makers of some of the best cycling clothing, have come up an innovation that is (nearly) beyond explanation, this is a product that I... 

We have received a very interesting question from Sammy about cold weather clothing for cycling, now normally we would put this in our FAQ section, but it is such an important subject for those of us who live in countries that will have wintry weather.

The Lazer Blade helmet is the one that Olympic champion, Paulo Bettini and 2005 World road champion, Tom Boonen wear, but you could wear the same helmet as the stars, but is it worth he money?
