With Eurobike here and Interbike just around the hairpin, we’re starting to get peaks at all the new tech releases headed toward us. And because the good people at Fix It Sticks just refuse to quit being awesome, they’ve got a new way to carry your tools on the bike (we’ve […]
Aesthetics and helmets generally don’t go hand in hand (especially when we’re talking aero helmets). But recent advances in helmet tech have expanded our options from the straight up mushroom-head styling and into more appealing looks. Brooks is throwing their hat into the ring . . . literally . . . […]
I know what bad rack systems are like. I once watched, terrified, as a good friend strapped my brand new carbon fiber dream bike onto his cheap, no-name hitch rack. You know, the kind you find on the clearance end-cap at Walmart that squeezes four bikes onto a thin steel […]
If you’re into aluminum, handmade, and ‘Merican, you’re gonna dig the latest release by Low Bicycles out of San Francisco. The MKII Cross bike is built by hand in SF and was prototyped and refined with the help of pro CX racers over the course of two years. The result is […]
Been riding along with your Wahoo ELEMNT just wondering whether or not you’re grabbing that KOM/QOM? Wonder no longer because live Strava segments have arrived. Available this morning as an app and firmware update, users of the ELEMNT can grab the new feature now over wifi. This new update makes the ELEMNT […]
—Warning! Spoilers ahead!!!— Chris Froome Runs up Mont Ventoux in Cleats Due to super cool conditions (like hypothermic stuff) at the summit of Mont Ventoux, Tour de France officials moved the finish line of Stage 12 down 6km or so. What wasn’t so cool was the barrier-free chaos of crowds […]
Smith Route Helmet Still envying your best friend’s Smith Overtake helmet, but not ready to dent your wallet that much? Get ready to turn your friend’s glee into envy over your new lid because Smith is bringing its innovative Koroyd protection material (we’ve written about Smith’s Overtake before) to a lower […]
The Mio Fuse: I was a doubter. Sure, the colors are cool, it’s relatively comfortable to wear, and it monitors my heart rate with a serious amount of accuracy. But how useful can it be for a cyclist or triathlete who’s in the middle of hardcore training? The answer surprised me. […]
This week proved a busy one in product releases, and we’re grabbing some of the coolest stuff from our inbox to share with you all. Check these out, and let us know what you want to see reviewed in depth. Silca’s New SuperPista Floor Pump Price: $235 Basically supercars of […]
Apparently, if you’re not cycling in 360 degrees, you’re not cycling. At least that’s what some random rider yelled as he passed me last week . . . right before he popped into a curb as he gestured to the circular camera on his helmet. It’s mean, but I laughed. […]
Here at SLO Cyclist, we’re shameless about being on the Jet Roll bandwagon. It’s cool by us–we’re just honest. And recently we were stoked to get a few of the newest models into our office for review: the F-104 Starfighter, the Hypersonic X-15, and the Aurora pocket model. Plus, […]
If you’ve ever dreamed of going full Tron on your bike, today is your day. Launched yesterday on Kickstarter, the VizorX promises a fog-free, virtually unbreakable, weather protecting, totally Flynn approved visor for your helmet. All right, so maybe the Tron connection is a bit of a stretch, but the […]
You know you’ve done this. Work day done. Finished your swim at the community pool, and headed out to your bike just as the dark is closing in on you. You swing a leg over, and reach down to switch on your lights. But, hey, they’re not there! OK, maybe […]
There’s nothing quite so adrenaline-inducing as riding alonside a car. You’re not terribly sure that the driver knows you’re there–and a right turn without checking their blind spot first could cause you to be making a very sudden right turn as well. The people at Blaze have a solution to […]
