dhb are one the most well regarded clothing companies in road cycling and a serious competitor to giants like Rapha and Castelli. Their kit punched up to take a spot in the RCUK 100s and now they’ve got their sights set on the mtb world.

They sent us some of their new mountain bike range so we took it over to the Foxhunt and for a rag around our local woods to get a feel for it. The kit is mainly pitched at trail/ all-mountain riders but it nicely transferred over to our gravity riding too.

Our personal highlights are the Soft Shell jacket (ideal for a wintry day on the uplift) and the Trail Pro shorts which should be great for spring through autumn riding. You can also expect the great pricing to be carried over from the road world with jerseys starting at £30 and shorts at £50.
