Canfield Crampon Mountain Flat Pedal
Overall Review
Feature and photos by Brandon Turman Whether it's outright grip, durability, impact clearance, weight, appearance, or some other trait that makes your favorites your favorites, almost everyone has tried a set of their personal 'best flat pedals ever.' Some look to the classics, some to recent designs, and some to oddball concepts that somehow work for them. Today we'd like to present what the Canfield Brothers consider to be their best pedal ever - the Crampon Mountain. It's an ultra-thin design
Fly Racing WERX Full Face Helmets
Overall Review
Feature by Joel Harwood // Photos by Tyler Paget and Joel Harwood Fly Racing began producing full-face helmets back in 1998, and at that time they were strictly a motocross company. More recently they’ve been making the push into mountain biking, with their products becoming more common on the trails, in lift lines, and at the races. Fly Racing have a number of highly successful motocross helmets, but they also understand that the needs of mountain bikers are unique. With safety, weight and
Eastern Black Betty Frame
Great Frame!
The Good
I've had this frame a little over a year and it's held up great! No problems whatsoever. If you come across one online when looking to buy a dirt jumper, I strongly recommend that you get it.
The Bad
Nothing at all. I love it!
Overall Review
It handles great, incredibly responsive, very strong and light, and prefect for dirt jumping or skatepark riding.

ODI Ruffian V2.1 Lock-On Grips
The Good
Legendary grip, MX half waffle adds some comfort (and looks sweet), lock on collars do not slip, decent wear
The Bad
Have to be careful not to over torque the lock on clamps, a little thin for some/ lacks alot of padding
Overall Review
If you have been around MTB's for any period of time you have probably heard of or at least seen omeone rocking the ODI Ruffian grips. They are known for their small diameter, good grip and how connected they make you feel to your bike. This review is for the Ruffian MX grips, which like many motocross grips (hence the MX designation) has a half waffle pattern on the bottom. I have run Ruffians on my bikes for a while and used to ride motocross as well so when I saw these half waffle style grips

FOX FLOAT X2 Factory 2-Position 2016 Rear Shock
The Good
plush, burly, adjustability
The Bad
The climb switch is too close to a lockout. I never use it on climbs because it makes my bike too uncomfortable even if it pedals efficiently with it on. Also, finding the right hardware is a little tricky if your not a bike mechanic ( not the shocks fault but worth mentioning )
Overall Review
Love the shock, I've running it at Whistler all week on my 140 mm and have nothing but good things to say. For me the CS is unnecessary. I wouldn't buy it for a trail bike but definitely buy one for your enduro and dh!
Birzman Wheel Truing Stand
Vital Review
Tested: Birzman Wheel Truing Stand
Overall Review
Tools. There’s a good chance we’re as picky about our bikes and parts as we are the tools we use to work on them. And when it comes to professional-level, high-dollar tools such as a truing stand, there hasn’t been much competition in the market. We’ve all become accustomed to what’s available and usually brush off anything new that may or may not be a viable contender. When Birzman recently launched their truing stand, the first thing we thought was “does the big blue finally have some
