In this article I will share my experience with the CyclOn Hand Cleaning Brush, which is a great companion to clean the cassette on a rear wheel. For me it is a great addition to the Finish Line Grunge Brush and a couple of Morgan Blue brushes.
BSCTools Cable Poker Tool
In this article I will share my experience with the BSCTools Cable Poker Tool in combination with BSCTool Screwdriver SDH-1 handle. That removes the need of keeping a pointed spoke in a BERA CLIC+ Toolbox to open up a cable casing of a mechanical shift or brake outer cable. I will try to compare with the PB Swiss Tools Straight Picktool (that has a slightly different use case).
Wolf Tooth Pack Pliers review
In this article I will share my thoughts about the Wolf Tooth Pack Pliers or in other words Master Link Combo Pliers. For me it is a compact version of the BBB LinkFix BTL-77 pliers that will let you open or lock a Missing Link (KMC), Quick Link (Shimano) or Powerlock (SRAM). Wolf Tooth wouldn’t be Wolf Tooth if they didn’t put some additional innovation into the product.
Assos Chamois Crème
In this article I will share my view on the Assos Chamois Crème that I just use for those intensive long training rides or granfondo efforts, where a lot of torque needs to be put on the pedals without standing on the saddle. It reduces the friction and later I will try to compare with the Born Sportscare No Friction Cream.

In this article I will share my experiences with the Selle Italia Flite Boost X-Cross TI 316 Superflow Saddle in color grey that I use on my Canyon Grizl CF SL 8 1-by gravel bike. I’m using the S3 version with a saddle width of 135 mm. (while the L3 version has a width of 145 mm.) on top of the Canyon Ergon S15 VCLS 2.0 27.2mm CF Seatpost.
Hazet 2162M Mini Grease Gun
In this article I will review the Hazet 2162M Mini Grease Gun that I have on my work bench since the early 2000’s. While it started to lubricate my Speedplay Zero Stainless pedals it has grown into an allround product that is helpful in many use case, where precision application is required.
Stan’s Race Day Tubeless Sealant review
In this article I will share my experience with the Stan’s Race Day Tubeless Sealant for the Vittoria Mezcal Endurance Gravel tires powered by the Graphene compound. Stans is know for its rims and wheels, and the Stans Race Day sealant is an alternative for the Silca Ultimate Tubeless Sealant.
Pedros Chain Checker Plus II
In this article I will show the design and capabilities of the Pedros Chain Checker Plus II which can do more than simply checking the wear of your chain. I will try to compare with the Park Tool CC-4 Chain Checker that lacks these additional capabilities.
Camelbak Podium Water Bottle
In this article I will share my thoughts on the Camelbak Podium Water Bottle that I will test with the Tune Wasserträger 2.0 carbon bottle cage, the Schmolke TLO carbon bottle cage and the Elite Rocko Carbon water bottle cages. Furthermore I will try to compare with Elite Fly, Elite Jet and Specialized water bottles.
Pirelli RoadTube – Butyl Inner tube
In this article I will share my view about the Pirelli Roadtube, a lightweight butyl inner tube from Pirelli for disc and rim brakes. For Alpe d’HuZes 2025 I’ve opted for Pirelli P Zero Race TT Road tires and replaced the TPU inner tubes for the Pirelli Road Tubes.
