Like the renegade master we are back once again, although our ill behaviour is limited to photographing and describing eleven of the hottest happenings in bikes right now. It's been a busy week too, with our writers out testing Shimano's latest Dura-Ace 9170 Di2 group, rummaging through the shiny stuff at the Tour Down Under and giving you the low down on Garmin's popular Edge 820 computer.
DJ, run the track…
New mountain bike gear
Park Tool GG-1 grease gun
Most things sound a lot better in French, the word grease gun being a prime example. Going with that, this pistolet à graisse is the same part that you’ll find in many bike shops, but it’s ideal for the keen home mechanic too.
Grease can either be delivered through the included canister (though there’s no grease inside) or directly from a compatible grease/anti-seize or assembly compound tube. A spring-loaded plunger that sits in your palm can then accurately control its flow.
We've handed it over to our workshop manager Jonny Ashelford, who will subject it to frequent use along with exposure to heavy metal music.
