Our cosy office is just that bit cosier this week what with all the fancy road irons we've crammed into it. So what's coming your way? Next week we've got a World Exclusive first look at the new titanium Charge Skewer road bike – on Monday we'll bring you our first ride impressions and pics - in the meantime we've got a gallery of images for you to check out and we'll be following that up with a full test.

Next up we've got another Exclusive on Fixie Inc's sublime looking 4130 steel road bike, the Betty Leeds - we've got a load of pics of that to check out and with first ride impressions and full review to follow

If that wasn't enough we've got GT's new GTR Carbon Expert (we're also getting the Carbon Pro which has an integrated seatpost too), check out the gallery of pics and look out for an upcoming review and first ride.

And that's just the bikes we've taken pictures of, there's loads more to follow…

Fixie Inc

road.cc'snder and first editor, nowadays to be found riding a spreadsheet. Tony's journey in cycling media started in 1997 as production editor and then deputy editor of Total Bike, acting editor of Total Mountain Bike and then seven years as editor of Cycling Plus. He launched his first cycling website - the Cycling Plus Forum at the turn of the century. In 2006 he left C+ to head up the launch team for Bike Radar which he edited until 2008, when he co-launched the multi-award winning road.cc - finally handing on the reins in 2021 to Jack Sexty. His favourite ride is his ‘commute’ - which he does most days inc weekends and he’s been cycle-commuting since 1994. His favourite bikes are titanium and have disc brakes, though he'd like to own a carbon bike one day.
