Review: Vittoria Rubino Road Tyres

Posted by Trevor Barrett on Mar 03, 2023

When you come to replace a tyre, it is probably the best time to gauge whether it has been a "good tyre" or a "bad tyre". As you lever it off the rim, you are probably either thinking about how many miles the tyre has racked up or how few punctures it has had (a good tyre) OR you are thinking how on earth has that side-wall exploded like that? or why are so many nasty little flints getting through this expensive puncture protection strip (a bad tyre).

REVIEW: Tineli Delft Jersey and Bib Shorts

Posted by Trevor Barrett on Feb 09, 2023

Took the Tineli Delft Jersey and Bib Shorts for a 55km ride up the Waitakere's.

It's really hot and muggy weather in Auckland at the moment but this kit kept me cool and I didn't over heat.

Very breathable and comfortable, only had to zip down a bit. The colour is great as well, stands out on the road so great visibility to vehicles.

Posted by Trevor Barrett on Jan 21, 2023

Bryton might not be top of mind when you think of the best cycling computers however, the Bryton S800 packs a lot into a small unit with multiple functionality, long battery life and a good-sized screen that doesn’t swamp your bars.
