Category: Quick Review

Before we dive in, let me restate the obvious. Saddles are a very individual item, in that one person may love a certain one and the next person hate it.

After a lot of rides since the spring and lots of wash cycles, etc, they both are holding up well!

A few years back, I hit up my shop mechanic, Jeremy Hutsell, for his thoughts on which lube to try. Jeremy handed me a bottle of Lilly Lube.

In the end the Showers Pass Ultralight Wind Jacket is a “good” item and mostly because it is so easy to pack away, deploy, wear, and repack, that I would choose it for any longer adventure where I was expecting cooler, windy conditions.

When I first saw it upon delivery to the vast and sprawling Grannygear Rancho, I thought, “Meh…looks a bit short and such…”

Of course, all saddle reviews are subjective, but for me the Gravelier ranks right up there with my current favorite gravel saddles….

In the end, I feel that amongst the options available in handle bar padding, the Ergon BT Orthocell pads are a better solution due to not only being a vibration reduction choice, but in that the pads reduce pressure points.

After a couple of months of living with this stuff, I have my final verdict on each product ready to go now.

Today Redshift Sports introduces their Kitchen Sink Handle Bar Bag, a bag custom fit for the loop on the Kitchen Sink Handle Bar.

The Arcade Ranger Long belt is definitely a keeper.
