11spd: This week's best new bike gear

http://ift.tt/2im0OgB

11spd! It’s kind of like Christmas every week, but we get all the cool stuff and you, dear readers, well… you get nothing except the cockle warming satisfaction of knowing you’re up to date with what the hippest, most freshest road and mountain biking kit to land at BikeRadar HQ has been this week.

Read on to find about what’s making a noise on the trails, what’s helping sculpt said trails, what we’re donning to keep cosy on the bike and to have a sneaky peek at a book about some MAMIL who used to cycle pretty well.

New mountain bikes and gear

Hercules WAE Outdoor 4Plus FM

As every rad rider knows, it’s nigh on impossible to shred the gnar without a sweet soundtrack, which is where this wireless speaker from Hercules comes in. 

At around 300g, it’s light enough to pop in a pack and thanks to an IP66 rating, it’s totally dust and sandproof with excellent water and shock resistance too. 

As well as being able to connect to your phone or other device via the magic of Bluetooth, there’s a 3.5mm stereo jack input. Even better for those that prefer the sweet sounds of The Archers on BBC Radio 4 over thrash metal, this model also has an FM radio receiver.
