MBUK issue 423 is here and it's our 35th anniversary issue, complete with special fold-out cover and Mint Sauce tyre levers!
We look back on five decades of MTB milestones, check out a very special retro Yeti, share some reader reminiscences and hit BikePark Wales with Steve Peat and Laurie Greenland.
Add tests of flat pedals, summer jerseys and XC bikes, tips for staying fit in your 40s and beyond, plus top seaside rides and a visit to Woburn Sands, and it's not to be missed!
MTB milestones
To celebrate an astonishing 35 years of the magazine, we take a deep-dive back in time and look at the tech, riders and events that helped make mountain biking the best sport ever.
Generation games
We meet up with two of the best British riders of their respective eras to shred the trails of BikePark Wales, enjoy a bit of friendly rivalry and find out how the sport has changed.
Big mountains on a small budget
We head north of the border to see whether you can really ride proper peaks with a £500 bike and bargain-priced kit.
The best kit on test
We've put the latest and greatest bikes and tech through the wringer and brought you essential verdicts on three race-ready XC hardtails, nine pairs of flat pedals and six summer jerseys, plus tons more in Wrecked and Rated.
How to stay fit over 40
Strength coach Ben Plenge shares his essential tips for keeping your body at its biking best in your 40s and beyond.
And that's not all…
This issue of MBUK is jam-packed with all the latest and greatest bikes, product reviews and news stories from the mountain biking world. We've got new bikes from Pivot and Öhlins, along with pages of product reviews that include Fox's Union BOA Clipless shoes. Plus, check out a Big Ride that finds three coastal routes that are perfect for summer, and a Trail Crew report from the classic Woburn Bike Park and Trails.
Free gift
Every print copy of the mag comes with a pair of official Mint Sauce tyre levers, so you can attend to tyre-related troubles while showing your appreciation for MBUK's longest-serving team member!
