FIRST RIDES The latest Ghost is the E-Riot Trail Pro, a Bosch-powered e-bike with 140mm-travel Factory-level suspension and full Shimano XT groupset: it’s fun, fast and pacey and also great value. Plus we try the Voodoo Bizango Pro, Halfords’ range-topping hardtail that comes with an incredible RockShox 35 Gold fork, Shimano 12-speed drivetrain and grippy Maxxis tyres – not bad for less than £1,000. BIKE TEST: INTEGRATED STORAGE BIKES Like a glovebox for your bike, down-tube storage can stash essentials like tools, food, or clothing, leaving your back unencumbered. We review the Specialized Stumpjumper, the bike that started it all; the cool and composed Trek Slash; and the Focus Jam. Find out which bike blows the back doors off.
