Hundreds of cyclists have travelled through London clad in tweed, celebrating the annual Tweed Run that started in 2008 with a small group of friends.

The custom-painted ENVE road bike has among the most impressive paint jobs I've ever seen on anything, with gold accents that elevate its visual appeal significantly.

The Romero, named after the iconic Romero Canyon trail, is a meticulously engineered, American-made hybrid of steel and aluminum designed to handle everything from marathon trail days to aggressive enduro lines.

In contrast with many of the heavy, and powerful fat tire e-bikes that dominated the market-and which felt more like motorcycles than bicycles-the Soltera presented a stripped-down, simplified, and much more analog-like experience. More recently, the Soltera 2 upped the ante with a much more natural-feeling and responsive ride, all thanks to its torque sensor. This version of the bike also added a more robust package of features, including integrated turn signals,

It adapts in seconds without any tools to comfortably fit riders of varying heights thanks to its low-entry frame, quick-release seat post, and height-adjustable handlebar. It also takes up less space than an ordinary bike with its 20-inch wheels, folding pedals, and a handlebar that twists to create a slim, wall-hugging profile that goes flat inside a car or train.

Batch aims to repeat the process, now in the gravel corner of the industry. Now, surely, these new gravel offerings won't completely knock your socks off, but that isn't Batch's intention. However, will they get new riders out on two wheels without the incredible cost barrier? Absolutely.

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.
