• Shimano GRX 12-Speed: Getting RollingSeptember 18, 2023
  For the launch of its second-generation GRX groupset, Shimano has focused on evolution, and on giving riders more choices. They didn’t need a revolution, as the existing 11-speed groupset was, and is, excellent in almost every way.
• WTB Silverado v2 Saddle: Getting RollingSeptember 14, 2023
  Okay, so looking at this thing, the new Silverado, and then looking at the old Silverado, well, it is almost comical. That silly looking thin, long nose on the old one seems out of place now.
• Old Man Mountain Juniper Trunk, Ponderosa Panniers: Getting RollingSeptember 4, 2023
  There is something about a long, big seat pack load that really doesn’t benefit handling and makes the bike feel squirrely to me in comparison to a load that is lashed tightly to the bike/racks and cannot sway or move at all.

  I wish that this Gravel RC was just a bit lighter both on the scale and under the keen eye of a caliper set ….
• Gravel Grinder News: 750D: Another New Wheel Size?August 22, 2023
  Will this become a thing? You can bet that if WTB has a wheel set floating around out there with Moots that there are a whole lot more of those wheels and tires somewhere…..
• State Bicycle Co. Cargo Cage & All-Road Disc Brake Calipers – Getting RollingAugust 15, 2023
  I’ll have to reserve more comments on the brakes until I get them bedded in better and when I have had more time on them. But things look promising here.
• Fizik Antares, Vento Argus Saddles & Terra Atlas Shoes – Quick ReviewAugust 12, 2023
  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.
• Pearl Izumi Clothing: Quick ReviewJuly 31, 2023
  After a lot of rides since the spring and lots of wash cycles, etc, they both are holding up well!
• Pirelli Gravel RC Tires: Getting RollingJuly 27, 2023
  The Gravel RC is a bit of an interesting creature, with very fast looking, minimally low profile center knobs and graduated layers of wider spaced knobs that increase in aggressiveness as you move towards the outside edges.
