Review: Lizard Skins Carbon Leather Frame Protector

by

Most carbon fiber bikes include some sort of frame protection from the factory these days. While some of the stock frame guards are good, most don’t provide anywhere near the coverage needed to protect your carbon frame investment. Quite a few aftermarket options have sprung up to fill this niche with a lot of available […]

Review: Hiplok Z LOK – Lightweight, Just in Case Security

by

You’ll never confuse the Hiplok Zlok security tie with a classic u-lock. In terms of bike and gear security, they’re about as different as apples and oranges. Classified as a “security tie”, the Z LOK and Z LOK Combo are essentially overbuilt, secured, and reusable zip ties. Designed for convenient protection against opportunity thefts, they […]

Review: Igloo IMX 24 Qt Cooler

by

Igloo joins the high-performance cooler category with their take on the Rotomold ice chest, the IMX series. Needing a smaller volume option for day trips, we recently acquired the IMX 24Qt cooler to see how the offering from the mainstream brand performs in comparison to the high-end models. With a retail price of $100, the […]

Review: Orange Mud Transition Wrap 2.0

by

A microfiber towel with bonus features, the Orange Mud Transition 2.0 Wrap is a surprisingly valued addition to our post-ride quick change rituals.

Getting naked in public gets upgraded; I’m referring of course, to the ritual of changing out of our riding gear post-ride.

Mash Graphic Top Caps

by

My favorite accessories on my bikes are top caps. I’ve acquired some of my favorites as swag at events, but after seeing some of the cool options the team at Mash offer, I feel like my top cap game could use some work.   Mash offers a cool range of pieces including patches, pins, jerseys, […]

Hiplok ANKR Bike Storage Security Solution

by

  Bikes are expensive and represent massive investments for us as riders, so keeping them secure should be a priority too right? We keep all our bikes indoors, but garages are often a target for thieves. Hiplok recognized a need for providing additional security for riders and developed a solution for raising that level with […]

Praep Propilot Push up Bar

by

My brother has been on a major push up initiative for the last few months and his dedication to logging 100 a day is motivating me to start thinking of a program for myself. Being a bike nerd, my thoughts go directly to how I can bring the bike into things and the best looking […]

Review: Lezyne Side Load Flow Water Bottle Cage

by

It’s not often we post a negative review. With so many great products out there and so little time, we prefer to highlight the positive experiences we have and pass on the negatives. However, having posted about the Lezyne Flow Cage SL side load Water Bottle Cages (as seen at the Sea Otter Classic) and […]

WizGear Universal Stick on Magnetic Cell Phone Holder

by

A lot of us rely on our phones for navigation while traveling. However, finding a suitable mount has been a challenge for us. We’ve tried a number of products – suction cup mounted holders, clip-on mounts that go on the vents, and well – they’ve all ended up sucking. Ironically, when I discovered the WizGear […]

SDG JR Pro Kit: Outfitting the Next Generation of Riders

by

Kid’s bikes have traditionally been heavy and poorly assembled, spec’d with low end components from adult-size bikes paired with smaller wheels and frames made using low end materials. In the last few years though, select manufacturers have stepped up to provide better quality bikes which have allowed young riders to progress on quality equipment. Many […]

Review: Crud Roadracer Mk3 Full Fender Set

by

The Crud Mk3 Roadracer Full Fenders are the best road bike fenders I’ve ever run. I don’t think I’ve ever straight up claimed that sort of thing when it comes to reviews. However, having tried quite a few, and installed far more than my fair share during my tenure as a bike mechanic, I feel […]
