RRP: £99.99 // Colours: Black // Sizes 30” – 42” Tested by: Ross Mowbray Despite naysayers suggesting that leather is the only way to stay properly safe of the road, personally, I’m partial to a pair of bike jeans.

Not that much to say about this other than – watch it – you’ll see a cyclist firing fireworks at a scooter rider and pillion after a bit of a row over using (or not using) cycle lanes. At first we thought this was definitely fake but given how close the fireworks get it…
