SHIMANO RC9 S-PHYRE ROAD CYCLING SHOES REVIEW If I had one way to describe Shimano’s S-Phyre shoes, it would be like slipping on a pair of pillows and riding around. Except, those pillows also have incredible stiffness, power transfer, and a totally slip-free fit. OK, I know my comparison is […]
Bont Riot+ Boa Road Cycling Shoes – Review Bont Cycling has always been at the forefront of the market, and their perfect fit via heat-molding shoes are a staple for the wide width crowd. With a range that starts at a pretty budget friendly price of $179 MSRP (currently going […]
Carrying my phone on the bike is usually, well, a stinking hassle. Especially with the popularity of extra-grande-sized models that barely fit (or sometimes stick out of) a jersey pocket. But I’ve since found a solution. I’m currently sticking it to gravity with Rokform’s iPhone cases and bike stem mount […]
Last year, we tested and loved Wilier’s GTR SL road bike, and became coverts to the Wilier crowd. If you remember our review, you know that Wilier is dedicated to quality and overall fastness, which was evident in the quick and ultra responsive GTR SL (which is on pretty sweet discount […]
Here’s hoping you’re not one of those squeamish peeps who can’t handle seeing brains and stuff. Because now we know our chief editor is a total weenie when it comes to slo-mo videos of crash dummy heads getting smacked around while wearing helmets. All heebie-jeebies aside, Kali has just released […]
If you’re sick of leaving things up to chance–like keeping those new carbon clinchers attached to your bike while it’s locked on to your roof rack–then grab a pair of Z-Loks, and rest a little easier. The Z-Lok by Hiplok is a zip tie styled bike lock, which is a light, […]
Most torque wrenches are missing something: flair. Let’s face it, it’s kinda tough to get too jazzed about reading the amount of force you’re putting into a bolt here or a bolt there. At least, this is what I thought before I used Silca’s T-Rachet with Ti-Torque extender. Even the name […]
Bell Helmets celebrates how cool it is to be a champion with its new series of videos profiling all-star cyclists from yesteryear. And to really push the stoke factor they’re releasing a new stars and stripes edition of the Zephyr helmet. Bell Tells The Stories of Bygone Champions Kicking off a […]

Shimano has gone all-in on their new S-Phyre line. It began with some pretty polarizing shoes, and it expanded to full kits to match. Now Shimano is telling us we no longer have to be cold against our wills. Their new cold-weather jerseys, base layers, tights, gloves, and shoe covers […]
When we saw Cycloc last year at Interbike, they were showing off the coolest of minimalist bike mounts called the Hero. Our enthusiasm was quickly checked, when the subject of Speedplay pedals came up. Not compatible. So we wrote about the really cool Solo Bike Hanger instead. But the super […]
Update!: Below is our original article from August of 2016, but this past week Lezyne has rolled out a major update to its Year 10 GPS line. In addition to its feature-rich models that are easy on the wallet, now these head units also allow for custom route building too. If […]
BiKASE, the folks behind the Outlier Backpack/Pannier and the Superband, now have a sweet way to get your phone from your car to your bike. One universal system lets you go straight from a hands-free display on your car to a heads up handlebar mount, and they’ve launched a Kickstarter to get the […]
You know that gritty, tangy aftertaste that just kinda makes you hate recovery drinks? Forget it. Skratch keeps refusing to make fake and gross stuff. This is literally the best recovery mix I have ever had. Boom. SCRATCH LABS ENDURANCE RECOVERY MIX Normally, I hesitate to taste things like recovery drink. […]
