11spd: This week's best new bike gear

http://ift.tt/21xtGDv

Does February make you shiver with every paper you deliver? Of course not! Nobody reads newspapers any more, they just scroll through Twitter on the toilet instead of doing actual work. (PSA: sterilise your smartphones, folks.)

This winter has been hard on cyclists (in the UK at least), but the first signs of spring are in the air. Roadies are eyeing their razors nervously, wondering when to do the deed, and mountain bikers are kicking back and saying "gnarly" a lot, because that's what they always do regardless of circumstances. It's Friday, it's almost the end of the month, so let's celebrate the coming season with a selection of the latest fancy flotsam and frippery to land at BikeRadar UK.

New mountain bike gear

Hiplok DX wearable bike lock

Hiplok carved its own niche when it introduced a range of wearable bike locks a few years back and this, the DX lock, is a secure alternative to the range of belt style locks from the firm.

Essentially, the DX is a D-lock with an integrated plastic clip that’s designed to make it wearable. The lock simply slides over a belt loop or bag strap for supposedly easy transportation.  A gold rating from security test house Sold Secure shows the double locking guts of this lock are up to some serious abuse and it’s great to see three keys included in the box.
