Fall Nukeproof Blackline jerseys
The latest Nukeproof Blackline jerseys come pre-splattered with mud so you don’t have to worry about getting them dirty on the trail this fall.

The Blackline jersey uses Bluesign® fabrics which are said to be more sustainable.
Race Face Atlas 35 handlebar in for test
Sometimes the most straightforward components are the most difficult to review. So far this season the Race Face Atlas 35 handlebars have worked well, and we’re stoked with the mid-rise 35mm (high) version we have in for test.
