Elite Leggero Carbon Bottle Cage
In this article I will share my thoughts about the Elite Leggero Carbon Bottle Cage, and compare it with the slightly heavier Elite Rocko Carbon water bottle cage.. The Elite Leggero is the bottle cage on the the aero Colnago Y1Rs of Tadej Pogačar, but I’ve also seen it athletes race on the Traka 360 2026 gravel event. So I wanted to give it a try and test.
The Mechanic Parts Direct Mount Chainring for Shimano Deore XT M8100
In this article I will share my thoughts about The Mechanic Parts Direct Mount Chainring for Shimano Deore XT M8100 in a 3 mm offset version. The Mechanic Parts is a Dutch company that builds “high quality handcrafted chainrings” for Shimano and SRAM and in tons of sizes, single or double speed, and aero or non-aero options.
RISK Button Washer for Shimano Ultegra R8170 Di2 Shift Levers
In this article I will share my experience with RISK Button Washer for Shimano Ultegra R8170 and Dura Ace R9270 Di2 Shift Levers that I use on my Canyon Ultimate CF SLX 8.0 Di2. It is an enhancement for the shifters so it gives you better and easier control of the buttons under the hood of your levers (that you can use to switch screens on your Garmin Edge 840).
CEMA Bearing Ceramic Pulley Wheels Shimano Ultegra R8100 12-14T
In this article I will share my thoughts about the CEMA Bearing Ceramic Pulley Wheels Shimano 12-14T that I’ve installed on the Shimano Ultegra R8170 rear derailleur of the Canyon Ultimate CF SLX 8.0 Di2. These 12 speed Rear Derailleur Ceramic Pulley Wheels were discounted, so an easy replacement despite not having a full ceramic bearing.
BeSmartBike Holder Garmin Varia RTL515 on Canyon SP0094 Seat Post
In this article I will share my thoughts on the BeSmartBike Holder for Garmin Varia RTL515 on Canyon SP0094 Seat Post of Canyon Ultimate CF SLX 8 Di2. It is a bolt-holder for the Garmin Varia Radar / rear light. The standard Garmin Varia RTL515 holder works with rubber bands that wrap around the seatpost, just like the Sigma Nugget II Flash Rear Light.
Framesandgear Titanium Crank Arm Bolts M6x19 Black
In this article I will share my thoughts on the Framesandgear Titanium Crank Arm Bolts M6x19 in color Black, that I use in combination with the Shimano Ultegra R8100 cranks. Just like the Kogel Bearings Shimano Crank Arm Fixing Bolt these titanium bolts are -from my point of view- a good upgrade to the default bike parts.
Pro Bikegear Crank Protectors
In this article I will share my thoughts about why purchasing and installing a set of Pro Bikegear Crank Protectors on your mountain bike and gravel bike makes sense. I have tested the Pro Crank Protector side by side with the All Mountain Style Crank Protectors on Shimano Deore XT M8100 and Shimano GRX 820 cranks.
Fizik Arione R1 Versus Evo Carbon Braided Saddle
In this article I will review the Fizik Arione R1 Versus Evo Carbon Braided Saddle, for the new Canyon Ultimate CF SLX 8.0 Di2. The Fizik Arione has been my preferred saddle series for many years, but it feels like Fizik is slowly discontinuing this line, and focusing on all the new adaptive saddles with the 3D honey comb structure (like other saddle brands) .
Selle Italia Flite Boost X-Cross TI 316 Superflow Saddle
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.
