2011 Boardman CX Team £900: Alloy-framed, carbon-forked crosser with disc brakes and braze-ons for bottles, mudguards and rear rack. At a penny under £900, it’s an attractive option for those seeking a do-it-all bike, and no slouch for commuters either.
Revolution floor-to-ceiling bike stand £90: A stylish two-bike storage system that’s a doddle to assemble. But only works for people who are 6ft or taller and has some other drawbacks.
Rapha Country Jersey £105: Well made, chic, comfortable and great-fitting Sportwool jersey with a patriotic twist and superb anti-pong properties.
