Compres Sport Ultra Silicone
Getting the Compressport guards on was a battle but, unless you’re trying it in transition, this tends to be a good sign. The material felt durable and the cuffs and one-piece tube construction of the actual guard should mean no fraying or split seams. Neither the ankle or below-the-knee cuff were excessively tight, and the […]
Giro Selector
The Giro Selector is one mean-looking helmet, one that wouldn’t look out of place at a Star Wars convention! The most innovative feature is an interchangeable lower section. The idea is to increase the aero advantage to a wider range of users by closing the gap between the bottom of the helmet and the top […]

The paddles tested here are medium sized, and, according to TYR, are suitable for ‘older secondary school males, senior national females, mid-level masters and triathletes’. The paddle design has two major features to aid technique. The first – […]

The urban-sounding Pro Combat Hypercool utilises Nike’s Dri-Fit technology to create a multi-use and versatile addition to your training wardrobe. The top is ultra comfortable as the compression makes for a snug fit that leaves no baggy material to chafe or collect moisture as you train. But it’s the ventilated panels that ensure the Hypercool […]
Northwave Tribute
We’ve been fans of Northwave’s mountain bike shoes for off-season training for a while and were looking forward to seeing if their latest tri-specific shoes would deliver too. All the must-have features for a top-end shoe are present, inclusing out-to-in straps, oversized heel loops, soft and barefoot-friendly inners, rubber heels and toe bumpers, and plenty […]
Sugoi Hydrolite
The Hydrolite is the perfect jacket to stuff in your pocket on those unpredictable spring rides. You’ll hardly notice it’s there but, come the inevitable downpour, you can smugly whip it out to stay dry and warm. It’s no old style boil in the bag primitive race cape, though. The ‘intelligent fabric’ which activates when […]
Suplest S3
With a definite retro feel to the simple black and white styling, Swiss brand Suplest’s S3 tr shoe certainly delivers in the looks department. Fit was good and, in bare feet, a half size smaller than normal fitted perfectly with plenty of room in the toe box. All of the key tri-race-shoe-specific features are there […]
Louis Garneau Vorttice
When it comes to aero bang for your buck, one of the most prudent purchases you can make is an aero helmet. But sticking an aero lid on won’t instantly make you faster. If you’re not comfortable holding your tuck, tend to bob your head or suffer from overheating on long, hot rides, an aero […]
