The all-mighty 26 inch wheel and it’s ever-radical form and function is being challenged by it’s younger (yet, bigger) brother, the 29 inch wheel. Who’s faster when gravity is on your back? We’re not sure. And we’re not …

Review: Michelin Wild Race’r Tires

When the Shimano XT wheelset that I currently have in for review showed up in the mail, it came with a pair of Michelin tubeless-ready Wild Race’r tires. I had assumed these were just a nice add-on to help me get out on the wheels quicker, but the tires have actually become the star of …
