Review: Troy Lee Designs' New Flowline Helmet
Nearly as bad as the "updated" Specialized Ambush. WTF designs these things? Looks like a new costume for a Space Balls redux!

Why Taj Mihelich Has Sympathy for Mountain Bike Designers
Every single part of the bike is flexible at 100kg+. A select few know the distinct ping of a sheared freehub body.

Ask Pinkbike: Crash-Proof Rain Jackets, Shock Setup, Bike Sizing, & a Degreaser Dilemma
The Leatt DBX 5.0 is a rad jacket, but the forearms are ridiculously tight - like it was designed for a roadie. After starting to ride, enough blood starts flowing I cannot push them up, plus it doesn't have pit zips and has heavy fabric, so runs hot. Yes, it's definitely durable. The taped seams have also started delaminating - have not contacted them yet, but am sure they will support it.
The Dakine jacket isn't the best quality, but has survived many crashes (amazingly) unscathed. Forearm/elbow impacts even.
