BestOfAwards2017-18.jpgIn case you missed it: road.cc Best Cycling Components, Accessories and Clothing of 2017-18 Awards
If you’ve not had the chance to check out road.cc every day this week (sort your priorities out, for goodness' sake) you won’t have seen that we’ve revealed our picks of the very best cycling products from the past 12 months.
These products represent the best in class – the things that made us go ‘wow!’.
Only the highest scoring products from those we’ve tested over the past year made our shortlist. From each shortlist the test team argued and debated and eventually whittled down the contenders to a final selection.
These are the products that impressed us the most in terms of performance, build quality and, in many cases, their innovation too. They’re the current benchmark setters. So if you’re in the market for a few choice upgrades for you and your bike this year, these articles are the perfect place to start.
We’ve linked through to the full road.cc review of each product so you can get more information and real-world feedback. If you really like something, we’ve added a convenient buying link.
We’ve separated everything out into three categories for you. Can't say fairer than that.
• road.cc's Best Cycling Components 2017-18
• road.cc's Best Cycling Clothing of the Year 2017-18
• road.cc's Best Cycling Accessories of the Year 2017-18
