GORE C5 GTX Thermo Jacket: Quick Review
What don’t I like? It’s black and that scares me a bit for daytime use on trafficked roads although it sure looks good. And at my age, I need all the sexy I can get. But not DEAD sexy.
Lead Out Bags: Quick Review
A hundy gets you a couple of bags from a small US company looking to make a dent in the industry, seemingly off to a good start.
Kenda Alluvium Pro Tires: At The Finish
But I really would like to try these with a good sprinkling of ‘pixie dust’ on them. A dust that would allow the tire to give me a more compliant ride across all conditions.
Astral Wanderlust Wheels: At The Finish
Maybe what we want is a wheel to cross a county on. Or a continent on. Or a world. And so flash is second to longevity, value, and solid, long days in the saddle. And I do think that the Wanderlusts hit that mark.
Kenda Alluvium Pro Tires: Getting Rolling
I liked the tread pattern. It looked right up my alley, an alley paved with asphalt mixed with dirt roads.
A Spectrum Of Lights: Bontrager Ion Elite R
Moving on with our light review round-up, we have the light from Bontrager. As we mentioned in the intro post, what I received from Trek was the Ion Elite R which is one step down from the top of the line light.
A Spectrum Of Lights: NiteRider Lumina 1100 Boost
The NiteRider Lumina 1100 (and likely the 1200 version) would be my pick for road focused or higher speed gravel rides as well as city cruising.
A Spectrum Of Lights: Light and Motion VIS Pro 1000 Trail
The VIS Trail Pro is my choice of the test for a light that is mostly used in the dirt and at speeds under 30mph. The warm color tint and the useful UI; the quality build with high levels of water resistance…it’s a very nice light.
Masi Brunello: At The Finish
I will miss the Masi and I hope there are many more bikes like this for us to buy and enjoy. Bikes that are solid and of good value; bikes that don’t break the bank.
KOM Cycling Products: Quick Review
A package of KOM Cycling products arrived some time ago and I have been playing around with the bits and pieces for a while now.
