Most of the bikes on this list have been ridden hard on the cyclocross course near our Pennsylvania office during a weekly training series, and many have been raced by our team of test editors. We rode fast and dry conditions, as well as nasty, slippery mud. We pushed the bikes through hard, high-speed turns and tight hairpins, as well as slick off-cambers. And because these bikes are plain old fun to ride, we put in our fair share of road and gravel miles on these rigs. Those that we haven’t put through the wringer personally, we selected based on experience with the product and firsthand knowledge of the parts, most of which we’ve tested separately on other bikes. Often we swapped tires and other components to get a better understanding of each bike. Then we evaluated them on performance, price, comfort, handling, value, and reliability to come up with this list of bikes that will best serve the needs of anyone looking to add a new cyclocross bike to their collection.
