Having handlebars of the proper width is important, not least because if you end up making your bars narrower, you can't widen them again … or can you? German company Newmen Components is now offering an adjustable-width bar for mountain bikes.

Although it's now long been standard for multi-speed mountain and gravel bikes to have a single chainring and no front derailleur, that arrangement can be hard on the chain. Orient offers a solution, with an "auto-shifting" 1x dual chainring setup.

All too often, lubricating your bike chain ends up with you inadvertently lubing the ground beneath it, also. The Green Disc+ is designed to change that, by applying its eco-friendly lube only where it's needed. Less waste, and no mess.

While many cyclists like to alternate between sipping water and energy gel, doing so can be an awkward, messy and wasteful process. The Dualfuel Sports Bottle is designed to change that, as it can be switched between water and gel output modes.

Trying to maneuver a bike through indoor spaces necessitates angling the handlebars around doorframes and other obstacles. One solution to that problem may come from Flatbike, which offers two components that aid cyclists in flattening a bicycle.

N+ has developed a boatload of safety features – and licensed Volkswagen's branding – for its latest ebike. This baby has the first rear-view camera integrated into an ebike, and even talks to a smart helmet and glasses.

Admit it: for the longest time, you've wanted an adult-sized tricycle you can ride around town while standing. Halfbike has been making that dream come true for more than a decade, and it's now got a souped-up three-wheeler to take you places.

When you dream of flying, you likely picture yourself lying forward, not leaning back. The Swerv electric trike was designed with that fact in mind, as it puts its rider in a hair-raising prone position.

The market for smart glasses is becoming increasingly crowded, but the benefit for consumers is that makers also produce technology that caters to specific audiences. And the BleeqUp Ranger does exactly that, in unashamedly action-capturing style.

A lot of people would commute by bicycle, but don't do so because they're afraid of traffic. Well, those folks might like Canyon's prototype Predict bike, which is laden with tech to keep its rider safe from cars and other road hazards.

Modern smart helmets are designed to improve visibility and cycling safety. The new helmet from Lumos keeps all the lighting features but also introduces an innovative intercom system to make group rides more fun, connected, and safe.

Presta valves are one of those things that a lot of serious cyclists use, but perhaps secretly hate. Well, those folks might have a much more loving relationship with the Aether valve stem, which does away with a Presta valve's problematic core.
