I am a mechanical designer with a love for all things bike. I am not picky, I just like to ride.

Review: Assos' $426 Steinbeisser Trail Rain Jacket
I ride year round and a hood is great for cold rain (particularly when commuting). However, I would never want to have my hood UNDER my helmet. That means I need to stop and take off my helmet every time I want to put the hood up or down.

The European Bike Project: More Exciting Products from Small European Manufacturers - June 2022
Have any of you ridden one? The linkage looks like it would be a bit flexy. These bikes are beautiful though. In my opinion they make the best looking steel frame on the market.

KHS Pro MTB Announces Bike Raffle for Ukraine
I am always surprised that KHS is still around. It feels the same when I see a new bike with an RST fork. I just sort of forgot they still make stuff.

Ask Pinkbike: The Best Whistler Bike, Tubeless Rim Tape, Dual Crown Enduro Bikes, & Converting to a 1x Drivetrain
@dairydolores: I used Gorilla tape for years, but I find that the sealant starts to eat away at the adhesive. After a year or two I need to totally redo the rims to get it to hold air again. I have not had the same issues with Stans tape.

Bike Check: Remy Morton's Chainless 26"/24" Mini-Mullet Park Bike
Why have cranks at all? Why not just pedals right onto the bb?
