The most favourable torque spanner in our big test impresses with surprisingly precise measurement results and is the absolute price-performance tip for hobby screwdrivers.

Gonso SQlab Go Bib

These cycling trousers are an absolute value-for-money tip - Our test has shown that. The thin, firm padding remains pressure-resistant even on the longest rides, but requires well-set sit bones. The Gonso is therefore not the best choice for beginners. The fabric is comfortable, although sometimes a little scratchy. The seamless straps are sufficiently tight and keep the trousers firmly in place. We also liked the slightly longer trouser legs, whose wide, seamless cuffs effectively prevent them from riding up. Offer: currently for 99 euros instead of 149 euros.

Many bikers want to surf the trails without a rucksack. But where to put your tube, keys, smartphone and pump? The Evoc hip bag helps: it is equipped with a ventilation system and a wide hip belt. The division into a main compartment and tool compartment is a success That was the impression in our test. The storage space can be compressed and water bottles can be attached on both sides. The Evoc Hip Pack Pro sits comfortably and securely on the back thanks to the flexible strap. The Venti-Flap ventilation system provides minimal cooling. The magnetic clip for the drinking tube is slightly concealed. Offer: currently for 86 euros instead of 115 euros.

The Front Fellow handlebar bag from BBB (here in the test) is made up of two components. Firstly, there is a waterproof bag with a capacity of 10 litres, which is sealed with a roll closure. This bag can be removed from the holder, which forms the second part of the set, and can be filled and emptied. A wide Velcro strap ensures that the bag sits securely in the holder, which is open at both ends, as it is firmly attached to it.

To stow the pack sack, the holder is folded down and pulled tight with two or four straps. Two of these straps are firmly attached to the bracket. Another strap can be placed around the stem for additional support and fastened to the bracket with two buckles. The Front Fellow bracket is also mounted on the handlebars and the steering head using three straps. Offer: currently for 42 euros instead of 69 euros.

The shackle lock from Abus impresses with its top-class workmanship and excellent protection. Only an angle grinder was able to damage the square steel. Handling is just as good, the key slides cleanly and smoothly into the cylinder, the shackle engages smoothly. The tested set includes a somewhat awkward to fit but solid bracket. The connection options are limited due to the design, so lampposts cannot be used as fixing points. Our test judgement: very good! Offer: currently for 97 euros instead of 154 euros.
