I have bought a set of Spinergy GX wheels and put them into test. The results show that they indeed are more comfy than standard wheels but only on a really bumpy roads. On fast gravel tracks where we encounter a high…
Hi all, I don't know if you already had the chance to read my reviews but my goal is to find the most comfortable gravel bike (and gravel parts) possible. But in my quest for comfort, I sometimes forget that even the…

As you may already know I am very much into finding the most effective (in terms of improving comfort) bike parts. I already tested many suspension seatpost so I had great expectations towards a seatpost made by the…
Hello, I reacently had the opportunity to test a very interesting SQ Lab 612 Ergowave Active saddle and compare it to my Brooks C17 Carved. To be honest, both performed really well making a long riding a real pleasure…
Hello, as you may already know I run a gravelbikes.cc project where I test different bike part and whole bikes to find out how comfortable they really are. This time I got the chance to test a new 2020 carbon…

Are they really more comfortable? Do this extra foam in rim really does something?
To be honest I was rather sceptic about this notion that there can be a stiff and supple tire. I thought that this is mostly the matter of a right air pressure. But to be sure I bought a pair of Soma Cazadero 42c tire…
My seatpost of choice was and still is a Ergon CF3 Pro (aka Canyon VCLS 2.0) seatpost but I had an opportunity to test and compare it to Kinekt spring based suspension from Cirrus Cycles. As it turned out it was in some…

Hello, I have managed to test this bike and to me its rear flexing triangle is an engineering wonder! On a daily basis I ride a steel Jamis Renegade Exploit bike with a Ergon CF3 (aka Canyon VCLS 2.0) flexing seatpost…
Hi everyone, I am a huge fun of any comfort improvements that are available on the gravel market and Lauf Grit SL promises to be one of the best one so I really wanted to test it and finally I did. First things first:…

It seems that 50 mm is the limit for manufacturers of 650b tires but I want something bigger yet in the same time I don't want a stiff MTB tire. Can you suggest me some wide and supple 650b tires?

Is it really a carbon handlebar? From the press release I read that in general there are both aluminium and carbon variants of D-Fuse handlebars and there is no direct statement that gravel version is a carbon one. The…
