You’ve saved up your hard-earned cash and finally bought yourself a brand-new mountain or gravel bike or both. While you can head straight for the trails, there’s a range of upgrades that everyone should consider after buying a new bike. They may be similar to the best upgrades for under £50, but that’s with good reason – they’re inexpensive and excellent ways of making your new bike more comfortable, capable and your own.
A lot of new bikes come with inner tubes installed, and that’s at almost any price,e but making the conversion to tubeless mountain bike tyres will result in the biggest improvement to the ride quality of your new bike with relatively little investment. Tubeless tyres offer more grip and less rolling resistance. They also hold up against punctures better while dropping the weight of those heavy inner tubes. For any off-road cyclist, converting your bike’s tyres to tubeless should be at the very top of their list of upgrades.
