The tire features a tread pattern designed for dry to damp conditions across rocky, hardpack, and medium-loose surfaces, incorporating a fast-rolling center section for straight-line efficiency.
The all-new Panaracer Gravel King ZX tire was built to maximize speed for intense gravel racing, developed to go as fast as possible on the straights with essentially the low-rolling resistance of a road slick.
Shimano designed both the new octagonal Saint and Deore XT pedals very similarly, featuring an extra-wide, dual-concave shape and a 121mm x 110mm platform. Both pedals also have a flat platform design for consistent pedal height and no protrusions from the axle.
The Crankbrothers Stamp pedals have always been one of my favorites, so when the brand dropped the info on the latest Stamp pedal, I was keen to give them a shot. Making the move from clips to flat pedals with the Crankbrothers Stamp Evo has been a refreshing change, enhancing my bike-handling skills.
In the short term, expectations are brutally realistic, but this is still a team intent on making noise from day one. That intent will be made clear when Cadillac unveils the livery of its first F1 car during a Super Bowl commercial Sunday. Such a move is a statement and arrival aimed as much at mainstream America as at a paddock that, for years, questioned whether the brand belonged on the grid at all.
We've been involved with the business for five years now. It's an incredible brand with lots of legacy and great values, and there's a long-term plan here. That was supported by two things last year: Carlos joining us, who obviously saw the opportunity when it came to wanting to win; and finishing fifth. And that just supported our story of going back to the top.
Drivers had eviscerated the new formula after stepping out of their cars following qualifying on Saturday; three world champions in Max Verstappen, Lewis Hamilton and Lando Norris all spoke out about the cars in various ways. Norris had said F1 had traded the best and most enjoyable cars to drive for the worst, and certainly there was a remarkably negative mood over the paddock after qualifying.
The GP5000 S TR is the all-rounder, balancing weight and protection for a fast but durable (and puncture protected) ride. Designed for general purpose road riding, the new size lets you push the boundaries of what "all road" really means. And the increased volume means you can run lower pressures for more traction and comfort while doing so.
In a more-natural habitat - the serpentine road course of Sonoma Raceway - this 1,250-horsepower hybrid advances its case as the fastest production car in American history, and among the speediest to ever roam this planet's surface.
It uses a semi-closed cell foam that works by slowly absorbing the air pressure in fully inflated tires. Then, when you puncture, the rapid release of air from your tire causes them to swell up and fill the tire, keeping you riding on air...almost like normal.
The new NOBL FAR Series rims are the widest, strongest, and lightest they've ever made, and they come with lots of build options to turn them into complete wheels. Designed to optimize aerodynamics with wide tires, they're also exceptionally lightweight while claiming toughness inspired by the brand's mountain bike rims. An impressive trio of features, so let's see how they do it...
