Twenty6’s F1 and Straitline’s Ultra Stems - 2 Options for the Boxxer Direct mount standard

The manufacturing industry for our sport is a cut throat business. Everyone is trying to make their product that much lighter, that much more unique, but not that much more expensive. The cost to manufacture goods has risen so much in the past it amazes me that these companies are still on the grind to create the lightest, most unique and functional parts for your bike, and they are succeeding. Recently we got the new Twenty6 F1 stem, along with the Straitline Ultra stem, so let’s take a side by side look at them.

Read on for the comparison…

Goat Style Bike Festival 2009 is just around the corner

Source: Goat Style

If you listen carefully at night, you can hear the goats stirring. You can hear them running around, trying so desperately to escape from their pen. They know what’s coming; they know what’s going to happen…and they want out.

Goat Style Bike Festival is 4 months away and the anticipation is rocketing through the roof. Plans have been underway from the moment that Goat Style ’08 finished. Last year ended with rain…it was tough but it only made us stronger, and it really ticked the goats off. They want redemption; they want another crack at what’s going to be the biggest Goat Style ever. There will be no more cancellations, there will be no more muddy, soaking wet course…and there will be no more “maybe next year” because this year…it’s on!
