I’ve used Serfas saddlebags and racks in the past, but I didn’t know that they also sell tires. The good folks from Serfas sent us a pair of their Krest 9r MTB tires for me to test on my KHS Solo One 29er. My Solo One comes with Kenda Nevegals, a tire that really performs…

Intense Cycles shows off their new 09 bikes.
Since the breakout of the 29ers into the 26â world, long travel 29er forks have only been seen on a âwish listâ. There were several in existence, but for 2009 – Ask and you shall receive! At Interbike 2008 there were an abundance of 5-6â travel forks. Although some were labeled as prototypes, the idea…
For 2009 KHS Bicycles didn’t really change much on the specs. They were pretty happy with the current set up, but they did decide to change up the color to white. I do love me some black and white and this bike is dang sexy!
XC racing is not my cup of tea, but since I built a race bike, I might as well give it a shot. I am not podium material, my training is rather limited by an active family life, so my goal is to finish the race and not to finish last. Here’s my racing machine,…
Felt’s 2009 website is showing off a complete 29er HT lineup including 3 new carbon hardtails. They are a must see, especially enlarged. These bikes don’t “say” fast, rather they SCREAM fast. The top of the line bike is the Felt Nine Team with black carbon underneath Red graphics. Remember “red” means fast. đ Felt…

While RL and Priscilla were enjoying their weekend getaway and Jeremy and Khoa were reminiscing about their Big Bear trip, I had the pleasure of riding with “The Moe“. Saturday we met at the Albertsonâs parking lot on the corner of Jamboree and Chapman. Moe has never ridden Santiago Oaks therefore I was looking forward…
A few years ago I bought a Gary Fisher X-Caliber. That yearâs Orange was the color I really wanted, but they ran out of that bike in my size. This was a bit of a bummer but the following yearâs bike, a bland silver, was already on the showroom floor and my LBS was willing…
Exposure also allows for some sweet views! In the middle of the valley, you can see the fireroad we climbed. The day before, we were on the other side of the mountain riding the slopes Just a few lessons learned from this past weekend of riding, plus some more random pictures that didn’t make it…
