Are you talking about gray market watches sold by non-authorized dealers? If yes, the manufacturer has every right to not honor the warranty. I am...

See, I've been saying this for a while; it's the movie Wall-e playing out for real. First come driverless cars, then bikes will exercise for us. ...

Couple more swampy commutes this week, and a humid coffee run this morning. Managed to sneak in a Nats game with 9 of my college buddies and another...

Stefan is killing it this week.

Analysis paralysis

Stefan, pleasure was all mine, you're welcome anytime. I'll definetly try the Plata's Morunos Cheers

They're still around and Cielo isn't. Says everything you need to know. There's also the problem of Cielo competing with their own customers....

Same here, one and done. I got bit by a bunch of nasty bugs too during it since I was going way way slow.

i own a deepsea purchased at 20% off...i have owned a gmt-master ii also purchased at 20% off...you certainly couldn't find a new daytona anywhere...

Nicely written. Haven't seen your blog before. Fun read.

Depends on the watch. Rolex sport models are very, very rarely discounted. Many of them are hard to find let alone find at 15-20% off msrp. And...

So if Cielo won over Breadwinner for you, what does that say about the longevity of Breadwinner?

Nice. However, after wearing Pannies, both 44mm and 46mm models, I just can't do 40mm anymore. I have a couple of other more "dressy" watches that...

So I understood that one of the delays was getting a shop network for final assembly and/or figuring a way around the US safety requirement that...

if you're not getting 15-20% off MSRP from any retailer, you're not doing it right you shouldnt need a going out of business sale to get that...

Spain Tour, Picos de Europa

These guys https://www.dirtlabs.com/ I've been happy with their service on my fork Ken

My wife and I did it on our tandem in 1991 or 92. 1 hr. 46 minutes and we enjoyed it for the most part. We'd just returned from a 1 yr. ride around...

I did it once. Like you say, that was enough. The weather was gorgeous at the start, but you could see puffy clouds here and there. It seemed to me...

Is Middle Patent Weirdness coming to Deerfield?

There were a lot of early complaints about how classic it was. I can't speak to whether/how the angles or other pertinent numbers changed over time,...

Hill climb races are punishments especially if you can't enjoy the descent afterwards.

Mike, you got my interest so i went back and pulled this one from NBX cross last year. Not a lot of "recharging" going on after the initial FRC...

Get ready for one of the greatest "exotic handbuilt sighting in the wild" events in the world tomorrow in Deerfield.

Just saw this. Yeah, I avoid the wattage group. I want this to be fun... FRC definitely relate to what you say your FTP is. The standard response...

Have a great weekend all.

I used to be one too. Then a got a watch without a date and I don't miss it when I wear that watch.

TRP Hylex are great. Used them for a while with a rear bar end shifter and loved them. Otherwise the Juin Tech R1 hybrid cable/hydro brakes are...

Cheers for reading and sharing the review. Yes, my father's biography has been described in details on our website for quite a while now :) ...

run di2 levers with xtr calipers

Well Alexander Kristoff is f.a.f. on his so I want one.

Correct me if I write anything wrong but from what I understood Cielo bikes were made to order bikes but not really custom. People wanting a non...

Here in europe Canyon is really big despite us having a lot of other direct to consumer brands. The competition is stiff and they were competiting as...

I would imagine that with a bigger product lineup, including MTB, city bikes and the like Canyon would be bigger. Bigger in the road category only?...

Thanks for the tips! Will do bratwurst, fries, gardens and a museum if I'm lucky. Beer is already on the menu. The camp is not--I want that...

Thanks all! I really am very lucky to have owned such a spectacular bike and also to have not been seriously injured when it met its demise. Once...

Canyon is already like 3 times the size of Pinarello, and they only sell in selected countries. -g

A couple friends of mine here in the US own Canyons. They did it the hard way, getting them in Germany and either shipping them or getting them there...

Not a real comparison. The Ultimate SLX is S-works level, not an Expert level Specialized. The DT carbon wheels on the Canyon are about $2200,...

My bit to add: I've mentioned this on this forum in other treads before, but here in Japan Canyon has been available for a number of years. With...

Resurrecting this thread... Anyone has personal experience with the new, tubeless Barlow Pass? I'm just curious how it's holding up. Also, the...

Spotted a longhorns orange Geekhouse today with turquoise fork. Pretty hot. And almost every day I see another commuter on deep orange Gunnar...
