Best flat pedal (Product Review)

The Good

Amazing grip Tmac gets paid Great colors Rebuildable Great pin profiles Super concave

The Bad

Is too much grip a bad thing?

Overall Review
I gave mine to my little brother to say thanks for watching my house for a week. I’ll be ordering a new pair. Before I handed them over I had zero complaints. Bled almost every ride. Stay super planter in the pedals. Have complete faith they’ll be where they’re supposed to be when you look for them because they have a little resistance in the bearing. So far my brother is loving them. Between the two of us they’ve got hundreds of miles with zero issues. Some serious rock strikes. Etc. These have to be the best flats on the planet and the price is reasonable.

Smooth and Compliant Handlebar (Product Review)

The Good

Damp, shape, low weight

The Bad

Cost. Could use more size options (35mm)

Overall Review
I've always been a fan of the shape and 25mm rise of Diety handlebars. But I also preferred the feel of carbon handlebars and future proof 35mm clamp diameter stems. I decided to give the new Diety Skywire a go. The Skywire handlebar has been a fantastic addition to my new bike (Evil the Offering) . The Skywire has been smooth and compliant for my 165lb weight. There's no harshness that I can detect and the handling is crisp and light. I recommend the Skywire to anyone looking for a 15 or 25mm carbon handlebar.

DEITY Compound Flat Pedal

Really good flat pedal option (Product Review)

The Good

-Super durable -Good grip -Thin platforms -Really light -Scratches are not too apparent

The Bad

-Could use more pins for a bit more grip

Overall Review
The Deity Compound flat pedals were my first venture in composite pedals, and they exceeded my expectations. I thought that they’d be a cheap option and should last well given their simplicity. They filled those duties and always delivered grip, durability and reliability while still looking good. Maintenance : Firstly, they run on bushings (which are replaceable) and are well sealed so you don’t need to grease bearings and they seem to attract less dust and mud into them. I have hose-washed my bike plenty of times and they have never made a single creak, kept rolling smoothly and I never had...

"Your dream grip." (Product Review)

The Good

-Super comfy -Price is right -Lots of color choices

The Bad

-Nothing to report yet

Overall Review
When I saw the writing on the packaging, I thought “well, they’re pretty confident about their product!”. Being always apprehensive on what the marketing department says, I was eager to install and try them. Installation is like the other single-sided collar grips, but this time instead of 2Nm of torque, the bolt on each side should be tightened at 2.5Nm. I had tried 2Nm at first, and they rotated a bit when, so I upped to 2.5 without looking at their packaging. They write it so no guesswork needs to be done, and at their specified torque, nothing moved afterwards. The end is slightly tapered...

SuperSize Me: New Deity 35mm Cockpit Tested (Product Review)

Overall Review
Going from strength to strength, the last few years has seen rider-run, independent component manufacturer Deity cement its place in the market as a producer of high-quality goods that both talk the talk and walk the walk. Deity prides itself in making stuff that not only looks good (and it generally does), but that also works well on the bike. The 35mm cockpit standard is not without its challenges when it comes to getting the feel and stiffness right, which is why Deity took their sweet time before introducing a 35mm line. When they finally did, earlier this year, they came to the table with...

DEITY Blacklabel 800 Handlebar

Trustworthy and good looks (Product Review)

The Good

Attractive design Strong Great upsweep/backsweep combo Direct feel without being harsh

The Bad

Not the lightest Not as forgiving as some lighter weight aluminum bars, or carbon

Overall Review
I have gone back and forth between carbon and aluminum bars over the years without having major issues with either option, and unless I'm desperate to save some weight I generally prefer the aluminum option for peace of mind. Deity makes my favorite bars at the moment as they generally stick to my preferred upsweep/backsweep combo, and they offer nice subtle designs that pair well with most any bike. While I've used their Skyline bars before (same angles, just lighter), I generally prefer the Blacklabel as a go-to bar for every bike in my garage. The shape and stiffness are familiar, and the...
