The foremost high-vis sportswear in the land are back with this touring backpack that has a 20 litre capacity. The back ventilation system will stop you from getting too sweaty, and there is also a high-vis waterproof raincover included for wet rides.

Bryton Rider 420E GPS

With 'simplicity and convenience at its core' according to Bryton, the 420 has a 2.3" high quality optical bonded display which should allow you to get a clear view from any angle.

£13.00

A bell without any bulk, the Classic Shallow Bell weighs in at just 27g and is made from high-polished brass mounted to a machined aluminum base. The dinger has what Lezyne describes as a "sharp, definitively loud ring", and the o-ring will work with a wide variety of bar sizes and shapes. Will this bell end your hunt for something suitably loud to alert others of your presence?

Bioracer Spitfire Tempest Protect Bibtight

£132.00

These luxurious bibs are both windproof and waterproof "for really cold days on the bike", so say Bioracer. The new design provides additional support, with Bioracer's Vapor pad claimed as a big step forward in terms of breathability and vibration damping. The Vapor pad's Evapore tech includes '3D webbing' that changes to a rubberised state when put under stress, so even when it's fully compressed it still absorbs plenty of road buzz. Sound impressive? Find out if our tester thought so in the full review, coming later this month...
