Also the fit seems restrictive a first but you soon get used to it and it supports the body and feet quite nicely. The best part about cycling is that you need very little to get going. There are a number of must-have pieces of equipment such as a helmet, high visibility clothing and lights, but apart from this small group, you don’t need anything extra.

But what do you need to look out for when shopping for cycling gear? What are the best brands? What kit is really necessary? Do you really need it? Our advice is to take your time studying factors like the reputation of the brand, the materials used to manufacture the product and also comparing it to other products of a similar price in the Sleeping Bags category. Safety should always come first. You should never skimp when buying bicycle gear because it could one day save your life. You (hopefully) would never cut corners on your helmet, so you shouldn’t act any differently to the rest of your gear.In a line: The Montane Prism is a well-featured sleeping bag that won’t let you down and is one of the best synthetic sleeping bags on the market. It uses '4T' insulation with tri-lateral construction - an independently floating layer of insulation not compressed by stitching, which reduces cold spots and increases core temperature.
