I’ve been riding Alter Cycles’ Reflex 300 for a couple of months, and I’ve tested it on-road and off-road. If you’re reading this and wondering what the Alter Cycles’ Reflex 300 is, check out part one of our bike review for more info. We’ve also got a Route 400 review on […]
An alter-nate (ah, see what I did th . . . OK, sorry) take on suspension and energy storage, Alter Cycle’s revolutionary design claims for a smooth ride and easier pedaling. Here’s what we think about its performance. ALTER CYCLE’S REFLEX 300 BIKE REVIEW It’s the most unique bike I […]

Fix It Sticks: that’s code for innovation that won’t quit. Constantly outdoing themselves, the folks behind Fix It Sticks are like those cool guys who show up just when the party is starting to get lame, and they switch up the music to get everyone dancing again. Yes. Exactly like […]
You know that hub you’ve got laced to your wheels right now? It’s now officially lame thanks to Rotor’s newest release: RVOLVER™. Why, you ask?

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 […]

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.
