TOGU Bike Balance Board

Jury Verdict The TOGU Bike Balance Board might look harmless at first sight, but the wooden training device packs quite a punch. The trick: your posture on the board is similar to the position on the bike. In this way the muscles and motor skills are trained simultaneously in a bike-specific and fun way. This means the robust, German-made TOGU Bike Balance Board allows really effective training in the smallest of spaces. You can adjust the difficulty of the training via the air pressure of the ball, and can thus make the level constantly increase. No wonder the world’s best pro riders are using the board for their training. The use of sustainable materials and good workmanship round off the list of advantages for this ingenious training tool.

SOURCE D|vide Hydration System

Jury Verdict The idea behind the new SOURCE D|vide drink bladder is both simple and ingenious: a flexible divider separates the bladder into two compartments, and both have their own drinking tube. This gives you the option of taking different drinks on rides. If you want to take isotonic drink and water on the same ride now you can, but of course your imagination could run riot. Thankfully the SOURCE D|vide is more than just a good idea. The quality of the workmanship, the simple cleaning, and the pleasant, high-volume bite valves all convinced us. A drink bladder that could become a trustworthy companion on all upcoming adventures, and for more than one season!
