How to Deep Clean Your Riding Gear - May 20, 2020, 11:12 a.m.

I guess there is an upside to riding in poison oak. You clean everything post-ride or pay the consequences.

Yeah, Mountain X. It replaced my ~15 year old Joe Blow that blew up.

Thanks for the hose/smart head tip! I have no complaints with the stock hose/head so far, though.

I've had the pump for about a month now and the D2 for about 6 months. Consistent readings on both for me too so I generally don't bother checking with the D2 anymore.

The Bell Super Air also uses MIPS Spherical and comes with a GoPro mount. I haven't tried using it with a light or camera so no comment on it moving around but I did wonder the same thing about goggles. No issues there.

Specialized swat frame storage screws up the switching between bikes thing. I ended up with a second set of on bike tools/gear for my other bikes.

Have you tried Conti Der Baron and/or Der Kaiser for comparison?

Is your Saddle Too Long? - Feb. 6, 2020, 10:24 a.m.

I'm going to give the Sagma a try. I'm not concerned about stand over but with the 76 degree STAs on my current bikes, the nose of my WTB Volt/Specialized Phenom is in the way when I ride out of the saddle without dropping it. It'll be nice to switch between standing and sitting without being poked like I did for so many years on bikes with 73-74 degree STAs.

The suspension/rail technology seems pretty interesting as well.

Off for me as well. The wrist measurement gives me 127mm but the memory foam at my LBS gave 150mm. I've got a WTB Volt 150mm and a Specialized Phenom 155mm on my current bikes and both are comfortable.

Very cool to see some familiar spots in the video. And you're right; that is how I wish I could ride my trail bike.
