Skewer

KCNC Skewers (blue)

These Brunico skewers are a good quality, nice-looking set that'll complement a posh wheelset well. Testing their claims of universal compatibility, I’ve paired them with eighteen- year old Campagnolo road and modern Shimano MTB hubs with no discernable problems.

The Charge Skewer is a super long-distance companion for all you stylish mile eaters out there. In a week in which we've already tested Fixie Inc's Betty Leeds here's another bike that at first sight looks like an exercise in retro-styling but in reality aspires to delivering contemporary levels of performance. The two bikes couldn't be more different in materials and approach but both are competing for the same rider.
