• WTB CZR Wheels: At The FinishOctober 17, 2021
  I give the CZR wheels a ‘highly recommended’ score here. While certain singular features on competitor’s products may seem more appealing, the CZR wheels have a complete feature set, are a part of a systemic tubeless range, which not many other choices in wheels can lay claim to, and a wheel set which performs at a very high level in very demanding conditions.
• WTB Sealant: Getting RollingOctober 15, 2021
  ealant is a lot like tires are when it comes to opinions. What is legend and what is fact gets lost in the passionate takes some folks have concerning which one is ‘best’. So, as far as this opening introduction goes for this new sealant from WTB, many of you may, no doubt, dismiss it out of hand because of your choices. That’s fine. This review is not being done to evangelize anyone. But those who have a more open mind to new ideas should read on.

• Lizard Skins Glove Sampler : Quick ReviewOctober 11, 2021
  Lizard Skins was kind enough to supply a couple of the new offerings for 2021 in their cycling glove line.

I have used them for a bit now, one pair much more than the others…see below about that…and here are my thoughts.
