Very shortly, I will be posting reviews of compression garments by 2XU. I have been using their Elite Tights for about a month and a half, and am just trying out their recovery leggings and socks. Also coming soon will be reviews of Rudy Project's new top of the line Sterling helmet, and Garmin's brand new Edge 500 bike oriented GPS. I just got back from a UCI 2.2 Stage Race in the Dominican Republic, and was able to record 7 of the 10 stages we raced (unfortunately without power readings, though). Shown is a composite map of all the stages (some overlap) superimposed on Google Earth satellite images. Further down the road, I will do a multi-part article, titled "How to put together a World Cup mountain bike on a privateer's budget". In this, I will spotlight Sram's new XX mountain bike group, Hayes Stroker Gram disc brakes, Manitou's Minute 29er fork, Stan's ZTR 355 29er wheelset, as well as talk about the selection of the other components of this rig. I will be writing from personal experience, as I selected the components for this bike myself, and will be using this bike for my assault of the World Cup race in Windham, NY at the end of this August.
Stay Tuned!
