Rating for this product: 3 September 6, 2011

A little too low-profile to use primarily as cycling eye wear, but I couldn't resist the killer deal on Bonk Town. Frame is strong. Lenses seems to scratch a little too easily.

Yes, the dark lens is polarized.

Quality mid-priced helmet

Giro Saros Helmet

Giro Saros Helmet

Rating for this product: 4 September 6, 2011

The only issue I've had with this helmet is that the vents seem all-too-good at allowing insects in. Perhaps this is the case with all well-ventilated helmets. I've had to emergency-brake more than once to manually remove wasps, bees and dragonflies that have hit my bald head at 30-40 mph through the vents.

Other than the bug problem, the helmet functions fine. It has not (yet) been pavement tested so I cannot comment on how well it performs when it comes to its primary purpose.

Euro-type fit, yet ample length for a tall, lanky long-legger like myself AND still snug around my skinny bum in the LARGE. Great chamois. Love the absence of grippers. Easy on/easy off. The bright white makes my legs look tanner than they really are :-)

Pearl Izumi Pro Limited Edition Full-Zip Cycling Jersey - Short-Sleeve - Men's

Rating for this product: 5 May 13, 2010

This jersey kicks some serious ace! The L fits tall/thin [6'3"/175lb] like it was tailor-made. Long tail in the back so I'm not constantly reaching back to pull it down. The neck is comfortably snug - won't choke you unless you have a meat-head neck, but will keep the wasps out. The sleeves fit beautifully around my sniper rifles. And the pro Swiss design is so, so sexy.

Cutter Premium Road Bike Tubes - 4 Pack

Rating for this product: 3 May 12, 2010

Haven't had to use one yet, but as the previous reviewer noted, hard to pass up for $12.99 on Bonk Town. The only think I noticed right away that I won't like is that the stems are threadless. I prefer threaded stems. Work for low- and medium-profile rims but probably too short for deep-dish and would require an extender. I'll pack 'em as spares.

Giordana Silverline Lightweight Jersey - Long Sleeve - Men's

Rating for this product: 3 May 4, 2010

Definitely a lightweight jersey. Great for morning or evening rides in the spring, perhaps with a base layer under it. The fit is Euro. I'm 6'3" 180lb. Could use an extra half-inch in the arms and the jersey length, but I was afraid to go XL since I'm thin. The fit will be fine, especially for the price I snagged it for on Bonk Town.

Descente Air Gel Glove - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 April 27, 2010

Second pair of Decente gloves I've owned, and I'm happy with them so far. As the previous review states, they do have a very snug fit, but I like this since I tend to stretch gloves out after a few months. I prefer a tighter-fitting glove for the same reason I prefer a snug fit in shorts or a jersey. I am 6'4" with medium-long, thin fingers. The large I purchased do not pinch or hurt but fit "comfortably snug." Additionally, the gloves seem to feel sturdy and well-constructed. I expect these to wear well.

Castelli Thermoflex Arm Warmer

Rating for this product: 3 February 17, 2010

Castelli stuff is always pretty fashionable and durable - I love the look of these with the Castelli logo on the wrists and they've worn very well, however a large is extremely snug on my muscular but not huge arms. I'm 6"3" and a lean 175 pounds. They are snug enough that the seams have left marks in my skin for hours after I've removed them and they've even caused some nerve interference in my left bicep. Who knows, maybe I'm just getting old.
