  1. It’s driven by a carbon belt,
    so no oily chain and no
    maintenance needed for
    a claimed 18,000 miles.

  2. The single-gear automatic
    transmission has a low ratio
    for quicker starts and an
    easier ride for steep hills.

  3. It should do over 40 miles
    on a 3.5-hour charge.

  4. The bike looks cool with the
    battery slotting into the frame,
    plus you can clip it in and out.

  5. Its app has auto unlock,
    crash detection and theft alert
    should anyone try to move it
    (£1,990; uk.cowboy.com).

WHAM, BAM
Bamboo clothing company
BAM has added merino wool
(responsibly sourced, of course)
into the mix for a new range
of knitwear, and rather good it
looks, too. The Origin quarter
zip, £75, with contrast ribbing
and contrast stripes, and Origin
hoodie, below, £79, are both
soft and lightweight, in a 60 per
cent merino wool, 40 per cent
bamboo mix. Meanwhile, new
slim-leg jeans, £85, in bamboo
are so eco-friendly, their button
unscrews to make recycling
easier (bambooclothing.co.uk).

NO FADE HERE
Black denim jeans,
£120, from Swedish
label Asket are
in traceable
organic cotton
from Turkey,
have 3D sizing
and are available
in regular and
slim cuts. Both
have a mid-rise
waist and tapered
leg, and rivets in
recycled metal.
Choose grey wash
or “stay black”, right,
which, the company
says, really will stay
black (asket.com).
