- Muc-Off Airmach Electric Mini Inflator Pro pumps 30 mm road bike tyres to 4 bar in 55 seconds, 7 bar is reached in 140 seconds.
- The 137 g lightweight compressor can inflate five 700x30 tyres on a single charge; a full charge takes around 30 minutes.
- Advantages are high performance and low heat build-up, disadvantages are the start button on the side and the poorly visible display facing the valve.

- Pirelli P Zero Race SL-R combines a deformed slick design (PAAS) with very good aero behaviour, especially on different rim widths.  
- Just better than Conti GP 5000 in the wind tunnel, but less aero than Conti Aero 111; very stable and predictable even in gusty crosswinds.  
- Rolling resistance at the level of time trial tyres, particularly efficient on rough surfaces; low tread thickness, thin puncture protection, tubeless sealant crucial.

- Four-piece Acid bikepacking set offers 33.7 litres of volume, waterproof core parts and a fair price of € 285, set score 1.5 with a weight of 1.9 kg.
- The saddle bag and handlebar bag score points with their roll-top fasteners and good waterproofness, the only drawbacks being the heavier weight and complex straps.
- The frame and top tube bag are well equipped, but not waterproof enough; the top tube bag also suffers from weak fastening.

- For € 3,399, the Cube Nuroad C:62 EXC offers a carbon frame, 13-speed SRAM Force AXS, carbon wheels and power meter in a lightweight package.
- Geometry with a slack head angle, long wheelbase and moderately sporty riding position ensures high stability, but feels a little bulky on tight trails.
- The frame (C:62 carbon, up to 50 mm tyre clearance) and equipment close the gap between the upper mid-range and professional gravel bikes in terms of price-performance ratio.

- Specialized has grown from Mike Sinyard's hippie one-man business to a globally significant bike manufacturer with cult status and a pioneering role in MTB.
- At the Morgan Hill site, prototypes are created using CNC, 3D printing and the Ride Dynamics department, which are developed for professional riders such as Loic Bruni.
- An in-house, solar-powered wind tunnel laboratory optimises the aerodynamics and ventilation of athletes' positions and all Specialized helmets.

- Compact floor pump with low overall height, good for smaller people and tight spaces, solid pumping performance with moderate effort.  
- Easy-to-read, sufficiently precise pressure gauge and accessory compartment with ball needle and mattress adapter, overall simple material appearance.  
- Weaknesses: short, angular valve head with a slider that is susceptible to adjustment, possible air loss when pulling out and very short hose.

- The Salzkammergut offers 345 kilometres of R2 cycle path and a variety of routes with great scenic contrasts for gravel, MTB and racing cyclists.  
- Highlights include 800 km of MTB/gravel tours in the Dachstein Salzkammergut, the 615 km long BergeSeen eTrail and events such as the Salzkammergut Trophy.  
- The region combines sporting challenges, cultural depth, 7000 years of salt history and regional culinary delights to create a dense overall experience.

- The Endurace CFR is an emphatically sporty endurance racing bike that is visually and aerodynamically very similar to Canyon's Aeroad.  
- Comfort comes primarily from the 35 mm tyres; the frame is versatile and only slightly less aero, but noticeably heavier than the Aeroad.  
- The CFR is aimed at performance-oriented riders, while more comfortable, more affordable CF SL/CF models with up to 38 mm tyres and mudguards are set to follow.

- ABS for mountain bikes increases control and safety, especially for less experienced riders and on difficult, loose surfaces.
- The disadvantages are higher weight, increasing costs, more technical complexity and the desire of experienced bikers for a direct braking feel.
- According to the test editor, Bosch ABS Pro impresses with its powerful braking performance, but Lutz Scheffer warns against overconfidence and a possible ABS obligation.

- Altitude Powerplay 3: new E-Enduro with Dyname S4 Pro (108 Nm, up to 1000 W), 720 Wh battery, optional 314 Wh range extender, 170/160 mm travel.  
- New LC2R suspension with one-piece swingarm is designed to offer traction, comfort, pedalling efficiency, a low centre of gravity and high rigidity off-road.  
- Three models (A30, A50, C70) with aluminium or carbon frame, 29-inch or mullet, from 5499 to 9499 euros, expected to be available from 12 May.

- The Danube Cycle Path in Upper Austria follows historic towpaths and combines nature, culture and history between Passau, Linz and Grein.
- In addition to the main route, routes such as the Linz-Grein north bank, Weltstein, Danube Loops and Danube Limes loop offer a variety of landscapes.
- Sights along the routes range from the Schlögener Schlinge, Mauthausen concentration camp memorial, Celtic village and monasteries to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Danube Limes.

- Wiebke Lühmann cycled 20,150 kilometres from Freiburg to Cape Town in 14 months, motivated by a desire for freedom and curiosity about Africa.  
- Her route was roughly pre-planned, but was flexibly adapted due to the political situation, local tips and a sense of safety; she did not experience any real danger.  
- She reports great hospitality, few moments of loneliness, a simple everyday life as a cyclist and advises: set off, keep an open mind, have confidence.

- Sturdy steel construction with wide metal base, large stroke and high volume, particularly suitable for large-volume MTB and gravel tyres
- Very precise pressure gauge in the 0-2 bar range with 0.1 bar increments, above this the display is coarse and tends to be too low, pressure release valve for fine adjustment
- Significantly high effort required, angular and unergonomic handle, short hose and possible air leakage when putting the valve head on and off

- Switzerland offers over 11,000 kilometres of cycle paths, numerous leisure and gravel tours with Alpine panoramas and regional cuisine for all levels of difficulty.  
- Several e-bike and gravel routes are presented with lengths ranging from 35 to 214 km, varying altitude metres and culinary stops along the way.  
- Services include specialised bike hotels, bike transport on public transport with compulsory reservations on IC trains and luggage transport by Eurotrek.
