Here is what Pedaling Innovations says about them on their site...

Club Ride New West Shirt And Gunslinger Chamois Shorts Are The Definition Of MTB Comfort. My Thoughts On The New West Shirt I am mostly a black t-shirt for all occasions kind of guy most days including mountain biking so to catch me wearing anything with color is a bit wild, especially if it's a button up. It almost makes me feel like I am going to some kind of worship service. Although mountain biking can be both sacred and spiritual sometimes. Once buttoning up the western

Aventon started back in 2013 with an industry disrupting fixed gear bike they infused with hydroform technology which at the time seemed unattainable. They become a well know fixed gear brand bringing home in 2015 winning the Red Hook Crit in Barcelona, Spain. In 2018 Aventon launched their first electric bike: the original Pace 500. Since then they have been bringing more innovation and expanding into mu

Smith Optics recently launched their newest mountain bike helmet called the Pilot.

've been wearing the Bajio Cocho sunglasses pretty much every day for the past few weeks. I got them with the black frame and copper lens. I love me a nice copper, brown, bronze lens for daily use because they can handle a wide variety of light conditions. The lens on these Cocho's are super crisp and clear. The clarity is really good. Going back to my $30 pair of sunglasses reminds me of why people pay more for expensive glasses.

The POC Devour Glacial Sunglasses Provide Big Coverage But Probably Best For Smaller Faces. The POC Devour Glacial Sunglasses offer big coverage and lots of eye protection. However the actual fit is on the smaller side. At least in width. There is some decent adjustability available to lengthen or shorten the arms but the width is fairly narrow.
