Advantages: Nutritious and tastes great!
Disadvantages: N/A

...As with my last review, I have added this as one of the other products to use, but I have kept it short as it is based on the same process of helping of loosing weight and keeping fit through diet and training. With what was previously stated with my use of Thermobol, I was so impressed, I moved on to using Maximuscle Promax diet as well. As I have a hectic lifestyle and I am always on the move, getting up in the morning making breakfast, sorting lunch all becomes a usage of time I don't have. When your also trying to calculate having the right amount of protein etc to aid you with your weight loss and fitness goals, looking for a meal replacement that gives me all the goodness I require in as little preparation time as possible, sounded like a good plan to me! Thankfully with Promax Diet, I found that solution, with 500mls of semi... Read review

Advantages: Shape and pressure retention
Disadvantages: Price

..., weight, flight and aesthetics consistently meet up to expectations and this Pro-max ball will easily meet the requirements of most amateur and semi-professional football clubs. For those of you with a little more cash to burn, then the Mitre Ultimax (careful not to mix with the cheaper Ultimatch) is available. However, I find it very hard to see what further advantage the extra £20 will give you over the already excellent Pro-max.... Read review

Advantages: Sports nutrition at its best
Disadvantages: expensive

...is a description of the item and an ordering section (so that you can choose flavour etc.) At present, Maximuscle have a great offer - buy 3 get 1 free ; this presents excellent value for money, as, for example, the Promax (whey protein) costs 29.99 a tub, so Maximusle will give you the 4th one FREE. I started using Maximuscle products, because I was a 'hard gainer' i.e I find it hard to put on wieght/muscle. Promax, and Progain (a calorie rich wieght gainer) provide me with the perfect balance. Bear in mind as well, that Maximuscle are a very professional outfit - supplying athletes like Danny Mills (of Leeds united FC), 'Prince' Naseem Hammed and the 29 Commando Regiment of the Royal artilery (amongst others). All the powder products (like protein etc) ordered from Maximuscle come in large Tubs, with full instructions. Delivery is VERY rapid... Read review

Advantages: Nice to ride, Comfortale, affordable, easy to maintain and built like a tank.
Disadvantages: Rusts quickley and is Very Heavy.

...I have a 1989 Apollo Mayhem MKI which is the original, they made them up until 2002. If you want a hardcore off road bike the this is not for you, as it would shake it's self to pieces. However as a 21 speed road bike it is good. It has a smooth ride, a nice driving position, a nice set of gears (shimano 21 speed grip shifts) which seem to change with out a problem. The Promax V style brakes can stop a bus, They are very good brakes and they do stop you quickly and safely when you need them to. The bike I find very nippy and easy to manoeuvre at high and low speeds, this is a quality that is hard to find in full sized hard-tail mountain bike's. The problems the bike has are few and far between, but. Rust, It rusts very quickly my Mayhem is very rusty (round the handle bars, the bottom of the frame and the rear fork's have badly rusted...

Advantages: Good Price, Quality Groupset, Reliable
Disadvantages: Poor Fork

...I bought myself a brand spanking new Trek 4500 2004 edition as a foot into the door of mountain biking. Since purchasing the bike I been out on regular offroad expeditions (some of which have punished the bike quite hard, in the lakes & peaks) and my 4500 has stood up very nicely. The groupset is all good quality stuff, deore rear mech & shifters, Alivio front mech - all Mega 9 drivetrain (i.e. 27 gears). The brakes are competent, ok promax affairs however the real problem is the fork. The supplied ROCKSHOX Judy TT is a spring/elastomer fork and whilst its fine for tow path riding and light mountain-biking it really does lack on technical downhill sections. The pre-load adjuster does next to nothing and travel is sticky and unpredictable. However it is better than no fork at all and you can always upgrade! Pretty much all bikes... Read review
