Hi Night Riders ~ What's a relatively cheap light system for night riding...would the www. be a better place to buy? I'm desperately seeking in the the $100...
I use a Cyco-Lite Rover NiMH and it works decent enough for the price. I purchased mine at Single Track in Snoqualmie which has since relocated to North Bend,...
With sloppy wet weather upon us, I will be switching out my tires for some stickier ones that excel on mud & wet slippery roots. Without getting off on a...

Kevin, I've been riding these MAXXIS Larsen MiMo's 26X 2.0 that Eric Stobin sold me this spring...and the tread is too light for winter conditions.....I want...
Does anyone have any experience with Geax Blades in relation to the current riding conditions being as wet, soft, mucky and slippery as they are? I've got a...

I don't think going off on a tangent about winter conditions tires is a bad thing. I've gotten a new bike that has summer tires and I'm trying to decide on...

I've had the Geax Blade on the CX rig for the last several races and it is a very good mud and wet grass tire. The CX version is virtually a slick compared to...
