Maybe you know our “sister site”, The Cyclist, but perhaps you don’t. Well, if you fall into the category of those that don’t know, we are pretty busy over there testing a lot of non-29?er related parts and gear. We thought it’d be nice to point out some of our recent gear reviews for riders of 29?ers since ya’all ride mountain bikes. Mountain bikers need more than just 29?er bikes, and that’s where our sister site fits into all this.

I like your other site. If fact, you recommendation prodded to purchase more than one item. Thanks.
I feel the urge to add that Beloved Bikes with their stratospheric prices poise themselves to failure.
I have to agree with RubberBoy. I was stunned to see a near $4,200 price tag for a “grocery hauler”.. I guess it points to why so many frames, parts and bikes are made overseas.
I’m another guy that never got the point of an expensive custom commuter, a bike that’s likely to get stollen. But apparently lots of folks buy them, plenty of people seem to be making them these days.
Based on your recommendation, I purchased my first hydration pack…Charge 450
Thanks !
