If you’re a frequent flyer at your local trail center, you no doubt will have noticed the proliferation of trail pants over the past few years. No longer reserved for the gravity-orienated fraternity, the latest crop of trail MTB pants lend themselves to all but flat-out XC efforts. Madison has updated the design of the Flux Trail Trouser for 2024 and increased the price from £79.99 to £99.99, meaning they’re not quite the budget option they once were. I was therefore interested to see if they’ve improved the design and ironed out the niggles.
