Scott's John Thompson talks to us about MIPS helmet liner technology

Yet more from Interbike 2013, with a detailed look at:

• SQlab's clever seat fitting system
• A mid-weight, folding lock from ABUS
• Easton's new Vice XLT 650B wheels

There's another contender in the drivetrain and brake market on the horizon - we take a look at what BOX Components has in store.

This interesting 190mm travel bike uses a 650B front wheel and 26" rear wheel combination, but there is more to its story than wheel sizes.

The second to last day of Interbike 2013 sees us get up close and personal with:

• Norco's 160mm travel Range Carbon LE super bike
• A trick floor pump for shocks from Lezyne
• Hyper's production ready, 150mm travel all-mountain bike

Today's Interbike bounty includes:

• Martin Söderström pro model Crane Pure helmet from POC
• Lizard Skin's ultra-light, ultra-comfy DSP grips
• The new Afterburner brakes from FSA

Interbike 2013 moves from the desert to the convention center, and we take a look at:

• The Thunderbolt, Rocky Mountains new all-country whip
• Ryders Eyewear's hybrid goggle/sunglasses, the Face GX
• A fat bike compatible Revel HLR and updated Hilo dropper post from X-Fusion
• KORE's lightweight Jive Mag pedals and sturdy Mega handlebars

The first up-close look at X-Fusion's ultra-exclusive, $1,776 inverted single crown fork. A 20mm thru-axle and plenty of gold and carbon fiber to be seen...

With the temperature hovering around 100 degrees, this may have been the hottest Outdoor Demo we've attended. For me I noticed an influx of fat bikes, new helmets, continuously improved suspension and good industry folk.

The second day of Interbike's Outdoor Demo was well worth the sunburn, with closer looks at:

• Maxxis' new Shorty downhill tire
• Magura's electronic eLECT compression damper
• e*thirteen's narrow/wide Guidering and lighter weight LG1r pedal

We take a closer look at Jared Graves' World Championships bike.

A look at Marzocchi's new 160mm Enduro fork, the 350 NCR.

We inspect the World Cup bike that likely takes more tricky inside lines than any other...

A close look at the BULLS Wild Core prototype, a downhill bike that is in the midst of its development on the World Cup circuit.
