Cateye Minimalist From Bookman

The arrival of winter shouldn't stop you getting some quality road miles or trail time in – you just need to be clever with your kit choices. Today's round-up contains several new products that could help keep you in the saddle as the nights draw in.

SRAM PoerChain 1091R

No weakest link. SRAM'S new Super Narrow 10-Speed Power Chain features the PowerLock connecting link — the only secure toolless attachment device for a sub 6mm chain in todays market. SRAM PC1091R series chains also feature hollow pin construction and outer plates with lighting holes for weight savings with no sacrifice of strength. Lightweight, smooth, precise-shifting. A true high-performance product.

EVS T7 Dimension Dirt Jump Helmet

 

EVS is a company devoted to keeping you healthy and happy in a very hostile environment. Of course, the ultimate piece of protective gear is your helmet, so EVS has two different offerings in that category. Both are value-oriented. The T5 line is aimed at the entry-level market (under $100), and this model, the T7, is a step up at $159. With top-of-the-line helmets costing $400, the T7 creates suspicion simply through its affordability. What do you surrender?
