Sometimes we here at Mtnbikeriders are graced with a Plethora, an agglomeration of unique, inimitable, conspicuous and useful products. Now these products are not necessarily the cardinal of compulsory items but certainly make the fundamental proverbial mountain bike experience aggrandized, but I digress. As Pope once said, â Trust not yourself, but your defects to…

While these other pansies are riding mountain bikes with their matching spandex and color coordinated...so called KITS...I'm bangin' their wives at home and she just served me breakfast in bed and I washed it down with a cold beer. Enjoy your ride suckas, cuz I know I did!
My first initial review of this bag was published June 18th and since then I have been able to do a few rides with it. For reference you can read my first impressions Here. The bags features are extensive and very well thought out. Lezyne has a knack for taking a mundane routine item and…
âWhat?â you say, âare you talking aboutâ, Smud, what’s a Smud. Let me tell you. Being the semi weight weenie that I am, I have been looking for a lighter seatpost for my Trek fuel ex. Until now I have been unable to find one that satisfied my requirements, that being light weight and reasonably…
Have you ever got a stick in your spoke or derailleur or maybe your handlebar? Fatherâs day presented an opportunity for 5 of us Dads to get out for an uncontested ride.

Indubitably Sea Otter 20 Ten didn’t fail to deliver; beautiful weather, bikes, people and products. Last year Jer and I visited as many booths as possible looking for new and innovative products. Sometimes though the coolest new products can be found from the old guard companies; one such company is Camelbak. Camelbak has been around…
Kona = a quality bike company that conjures up images of coffee, my other favorite hobby. Kona was represented at Sea Otter 2010 in a small way via a booth, not a big diesel rig and huge bike display with a lounge for the employees and guests to hang out. Kona came to Sea Otter…
Every summer my friend goes into hibernation mode. I long to ride with my friend but he insists on sleeping the summer away; doesnât make any sense to me but there he sleeps, all summer long. Once I thought I caught him on Party Bingo late at night, but it was just the cat… As…
Sea Otter Twenty Ten presented Jer and I with a world of carbon framed bikes. One striking design was the Titus Racer X Carbon with its âXâ shaped frame and its modified four bar suspension design. Designed as a pure XC race bike designed for those racers not looking to get beat up by the…
