Caren Hartley and Matt McDonagh joined forces in 2017 to create Isen Frameworks, building high-end, award-winning custom steel and titanium bikes in their south London workshop. What are the latest developments in the field, as riders increasingly turn to off-road excursions to get their kicks? Tyres and brakes are the big game-changers, they say, and their designs reflect the advances, balancing comfort and joy.

 

Plus an advance audio version of Ned Boulting’s upcoming column from issue 109, entitled Paralympia, read by Phil Wright.
