Kinesis have upped the ante on disc brakes for 2016, launching the updated range at the Cycle Show in Birmingham – including the GF_Ti Disc and 4S Disc.

Both frames are disc brake updates on already popular Kinesis models and the Sussex-based firm have built up a strong reputation among British cyclists for well designed bikes for UK riding.

As well as the GF_Ti Disc and 4S Disc, the latter of which is both rim and disc brake compatible, the 2016 line-up also includes a new flagship, race-focused cyclo-cross bike, the Crosslight CX Race, and the updated Crosslight Pro 6 V2.

We went to check out all that at the Cycle Show, so let’s get cracking, starting with the new GF_Ti.
