Third movies can be tricky. Think about Spiderman 3. X-Men 3. Godfather 3. All absolute crap. And the list goes on. 

Seasons is the third collective movie, and they had a lot to live up to. 

Avid Codes are the new badboy on the block. 4 pistons, big dirty levers, and the Avid name. So whats the real deal with them? We got Expert James to pound around on a set for a review.

Although the initial surprise of Magura making forks is pretty much done, its still a fairly uncommon sight to see them on the trails. When you tell somebody you are on a Magura fork, by far the most common reaction is "oh. Never seen one before." This is a big improvement of course from "I never knew they made forks" that was so common a year ago.

Every once in awhile a bike comes along that’s such a great value, such a great performer, that you have to sit back and say “Ok, what’s the catch?”

Best part is when there is no catch.

So these days, it seems like RockShox can do no wrong. With the
introduction of the Pike and the Reba, RockShox soundly laid the
smackdown and said "We're back."

Oakley is just one of those companies. They are one of those companies that everybody (relatively) knows, and one of those companies that just has “it.” They are definitely a love or hate company, as their style is unique and not appreciated by all. But those who love them are many, and if Oakley’s history is any indication, the Oakley Cult will live a long healthy life.

Everybody that rides seriously knows RaceFace. I can remember when I first got into the sport, seeing the RaceFace Turbine cranks was love at first sight. Sleek machined metal, light weight, stiff as a coffin nail…and the colors…

Way back in about 2002, Norco hit upon a bit of an idea. The idea was pretty simple, and fairly straight forward: build a bike for the abuse the new school of riders was dishing out. Make it for street, park, jumps, and whatever else. And thus, the 125 (and its siblings) was born.

The Specialized SX trail is one of those bikes thats beginning to gain a reputation. Some of that reputation may have to do with what Berrecloth does on his. Some of it may be due to the rumblings on internet forums from proud owners. Some of it could even just be from its imposing visual stance. Either way, its a bike that gets peoples attention.

The Pike was really the warning shot across the bow. For a few years prior, the products coming from the RockShox camp were not to hot, especially in the freeride area. The Pike changed that. Since then, the gear from RockShox has been a full on attack of killer toys, and it doesn't look like its going to end soon.
