Race Face's Turbine stem has been a popular choice for years, with several lengths and a range of anodized colors to choose from. The new 'standard' Turbine follows in the SL's aesthetic footsteps, with a similar, squared-off, and more angular design.

Taking pills or supplements daily is a fact of life for a growing number of people, yet the objects designed for that routine communicate apology. bovii was built to sit on a restaurant table without anyone feeling the need to explain it, a standard that immediately separates it from the category it nominally belongs to.

Quince, a company that has built its entire identity around selling familiar-looking wardrobe staples - cashmere sweaters, leather bags, silk slip dresses, etc. - at prices that feel suspiciously low. A report by once described the brand as a "one-stop dupe shop for a new generation of discerning, albeit weary, consumers." In other words: Millennials who like nice things but are increasingly unwilling to overpay for them.

The A.GR.TI cranks are a three-piece system - two separate titanium crank arms bonded to an aluminum spindle - built using the same 3D printers Atherton uses for their frame lugs. The inside of each arm features a ribbed, hollow lattice structure engineered to maximize stiffness while shedding grams.

With this Carbon Road, we're trying to blur the lines between 'entry level' and real performance. Phil joked that he thinks Tadej could win the Tour on this frame, and that's exactly the point. This bike wouldn't be out of place, built with SRAM Rival as a killer 'starter' carbon road bike, and then you look up, and you've got our sponsored guys building the same frameset with SRAM Red or Shimano Dura-Ace and going out there setting records.

'Polypropylene fibres are stretched and aligned for extreme tensile strength, then woven and heat-fused into a single composite sheet. No glues, no resins, no weak points,' Mous explained. 'This self-reinforced structure lets the shell flex under pressure instead of cracking, dispersing impact energy and rebounding to shape. 'It stays tough across extreme temperatures, resisting brittleness in the cold and softening in the heat.'

the automation of heavy machinery enabled plants to operate continuously, increasing productivity and revenue. The downside was that any small hiccup was acutely felt, cascading through the production line. At first, it was assumed that inadequate lubrication of factory equipment was causing parts to seize up or break apart. And so, the Lubrication and Wear Group of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, along with the Iron

How did a material conceived for bridges, factories, and large-scale structures make its way to the living room bench, the apartment bookshelf, the café table? For centuries, metal was associated with labor, machinery, and monumentality-from the exposed structures of 19th-century World's Fairs to the productive logic of modern industry. Its presence in domestic interiors is not self-evident but rather a cultural achievement: the transformation of an industrial material into an element of everyday, intimate use, in close proximity to the body.

Rose focuses on aero and performance with their new Shave series. Their top spec'd Shave FFX utilizes aerospace-grade Torayca M40X carbon for a ridiculously light frame. But they didn't leave out the endurance athlete with the Shave. For those looking for a bit more of an all-day comfort experience, Rose gave the Shave their AergoConcept design.

Italian component brand Deda is leaning hard into versatility, but for a single wheel. It seems that 2026 is already the year of the "do-it-all-road-wheel," and with that, Deda launches an all-new Allroad Carbon wheelset. The wheelset is a modernly wide, tubeless-ready carbon option designed to hop the sidewalk between road and gravel riding. Rather than splitting its carbon lineup into narrowly focused categories, Deda positions the Allroad Carbon as a catch-all wheelset.
