Hoss recently sent their Polo Pony Short Sleeve for us to review. I received a grey, size Large. It fits very well. MSRP: $29.95 Here is what Hoss has to say about it on their website: Go ahead, express yourself. The Polo Pony jersey makes a classic fashion statement, and the high-tech fabric keeps you…

One of the problems with taking pictures while biking is that you normally have to bring your point & shoot digital camera because you can’t protect your digital slr. With a point & shoot, you can always wrap extra clothing around it just in case you fall on it. But with a digital slr, size…

Jenson USA is offering 29er RST suspension fork for $86.75. Why is this significant? This is actually very significant to 29er fans because it now lowers the barrier of entry for non-29er riders to get onto a 29 inch bike. Having this low end fork available allows manufacturers to spec out cheaper (think sub $500)…

I went with some of my buddies to Chino Hills State Park for a ride this weekend. We did a 16 mile loop that included a mixture of fire road and singletrack. One of my good friends got to try mountain biking for the first time (he rode about 12 of the 16 miles, go…

KHS Tucson The first thing you notice about the KHS Tucson is that the picture on the website does not do the Flat Gray Brown justice. The paint job on the bike is subtle and beautiful at the same time. Take a look for yourself. All the other pictures I took with flash, because it…

Originally Moe had the Thudbuster LT to test but he is currently in the process of selling his hardtail so I’ve been getting in some seat-time on it, literally. For those of you who are not familiar with the device, the Thudbuster is a suspension seatpost that gives about 3 inches of cushion. When I…

I’ve been riding with the Optic Nerve Savant Fade Carbon glasses for about a month. MSRP: $59.00. You can find it on their website under the link “Collection 2007″ and then from the menu on the left select “Interchangeableâ€Â?. Savant is on the first row, middle. When I’m reviewing sunglasses with interchangeable lens, I’m looking…
