I’ve worn my fair share of kits. Maybe I’m something of a jersey and bib short hoarder–just ask my kid why there’s no room to hang her clothes in her closet. All of those kits have some small feature that I wish was different. Some leg gripper that’s too tight, […]

Known for their market-shaking developments in high-pressure pumps, fancy gauges, and the ushering in of C02 inflators for roadies, Silca has always been an industry leader. Now, they’ve launched their revision to old school valve kits and rim […]
This May 10th. it’s not all about KOMs/QOMs (although, every day is what you make of it). Instead, that Tuesday is dedicated to beating your co-worker to . . . er . . . I mean, showing global support for better cycling and pedestrian infrastructure. Strava’s officially making it happen […]
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, […]
