I use the white rags mentioned above for anything greasy/oily (ex: chain) and then the microfibers for wiping down/drying the bike as needed. It's like $25-30 for a bag of 35 of the kirkland microfiber rags. Since they are light-duty use the wife will wash them and I'll reuse. The white rags, not so much

white cotton towels, yellow microfiber towels and blue paper towels from Costco. I use them all for various tasks.

You are going to get a lot of different responses here (but who cares what someone else thinks about your money and how you choose to spend it). It all comes down to this..... Are you satisfied/happy with the money spent? Yes - it was probably worth it. Are you satisfied/happy with the money spent? No - it was probably...

These (Halo) work well-enough, but if you are a real sweater (I am) the limit for these is reached fairly quickly. I wear one every ride and still run in to issues.

giantkeeper Added a comment about feature First Ride: Leatt DBX 2.0 and 3.0 Flat Pedal Shoes

3/8/2020 6:55am

I got my pair of 3.0 and rode them for the first time yesterday. These are less like the Sam Hill five tens and more like a freerider pro with a few additional features. I run DMR Vault pedals and these shoes don’t grip. At all! The pins just float in the pockets of the sole. The shoes are definitely hot. The laces are a nice touch as they definitely will not come untied, but whatever makes them work also keeps you from being able to tighten the shoe around your foot easily. Truthfully, I feel like I wasted $100.

Fox usually coincides w/ Sea Otter. They'll announce and then product will roll out shortly there-after.

This. I love racing and I'll get wrapped up in the drama in the moment, but my DH racing days have been over for a while. Guys like Matt and what they're doing are what I strive for now. I'll watch every video he puts out before I worry myself about team recap vids. Except WynTV. Give me that all day.

Since the inception of the EWS, there's been only 15 male winners. 6 of those have only won a single race. 6 of the 15 are retired (or at least not racing most of the calendar). So you only have 9 active winners, 6 active repeat winners. To suggest that these are the only riders people have heard of is ridiculous. Furthermore, in terms of reach, one of those active, repeat winners has less than 10k IG followers. Another has just 21k. Cody Kelley has 2.5x more IG followers than these two COMBINED. And in terms of actually selling bikes...

At the risk of this devolving into another Graves/Rude doping thread, here's a bit of info straight from the source. Easy to miss as it was given in the PB comment section rather then an official statement, but I imagine that may be forthcoming with further announcements of his plan. More here: https://www.pinkbike.com/u/jaredgraves/ '[i]Ok,I'll try and clear a few things up, NO BS, just facts, hope it can help. The supplemnet in question in this case is BPM labs "the one" which if you want to look it up. Now states Higenamine in the ingredients list, but in older versions...
