Unfortunately, finding the right pair of cycling glasses isn’t all that easy. After all, just because a pair fits well in the store doesn’t automatically mean it will perform well on the trail or in the wind. Also, you can’t always tell a pair of glasses’ quality just by looking at them. It’s often only when you use them that you discover what a model is capable of and where its strengths lie. Among the huge selection of sports glasses, there are a few that stand out from the masses – not visually, but in terms of performance.

Ready to ride again in no time: That’s the promise made by accessory specialist BBB for its electric hand pump, the BarBank. Manual pumping is replaced by a compact compressor, and pressure is displayed electronically. Weighing just 160 grams, the battery-powered pump is surprisingly light. 

With the "CoreCap", Dutch accessory specialist BBB Cycling is launching a newly designed valve system that redefines the classic Presta valve - with significantly higher air flow, a more robust design and universal pump compatibility.
