Native Eyewear Hardtop Ultra XP Review

Native Eyewear has long been a purveyor of quality sunglasses for adventurous outdoor pursuits. As a lifelong outdoor enthusiast as well as a dedicated mountain biker for the last 15 years (who goes through shades like most people go through tires–at least one pair a season), it’s rather surprising I’ve never owned a Native product.

Announced late summer 2015, the Torrent 7 is Norco’s “aggressive” all-mountain hardtail and also happens to be the BC-based bike company’s first crack at the increasingly-popular 27.5+ game. Located within earshot of the ever-so-epic, steep-and-deep trails of the North Shore, you can count on Norco designing their rookie mid-fatty with the capability to handle just about anything you can dig up.

SQlab 611 Active Saddle Review: Rider Tested, Urologist Approved

“Performance based ergonomics.” Perhaps just another way of saying, “If the shoe fits, wear it.” And if the bike fits, rip it!

On Review: Borealis Crestone XX1 Fat Bike

Borealis is relatively new to the fat bike market, but made a very big impression with the introduction of the Yampa and Echo. The Crestone is a refinement of those technologies, with improved geometry, frame design elements, and quality craftsmanship. Much of what was missing on the Yampa can be found on the Crestone after …
