STUFF I WEAR FOR DOIN’ PHOTOS LIKE. STEVE JONES
Steve is our deputy editor, he rides his bike more than he’s supposed too, here’s the clothes he always hammers…
Troy Lee D2 Circa 2002
The reason I use an old D2 is that I’m always away when the box arrives from Troy Lee. Hence everyone in the office gets their paws on the new stuff for the top of their wardrobes – well apart from Jon the designer.
Price: No idea, never bought one

Dirt T–shirt Circa 1998 Can’t get them any more. Only ever use it for photo shoots cos it’s a good colour.
Price: never bought one of these either.
New ones are free with subscription

Etnies
The only reason I use Etnies is because the soles are stiff. Thirty five quid for a stealth re– sole? What’s the point? Get your suspension right in the first place.
Price: Can’t get them any more.

Troy Lee Knee Gasket Pads
Circa 2003
Had three sets but gave one pair to Rowan Sorrell, another to Leaky Lewis. Got to wash them frequently because they stink. Otherwise, the best.
