Seal Skinz Ultra Grip Glove

Today we take a quick look at the Seal Skinz Ultra Grip Gloves.

It’s getting cold in Melbourne. So it’s time to layer up and stay warm.  It’s always tough to keep the extremities warm and no matter how warm your body is, cold and wet hands make for an unpleasant ride.

Henty Wingman

Henty is run by Jeremy and Jon, two ingenious guys based in Hobart.  The've spent a lot of time working on the design of the wingman bag. The result is a super tough, go anywhere bag that can carry a massive amount of stuff including suits and shirts, all while keeping them in ready to wear condition.

Rapha Bidon

We've had a couple of these Rapha bisons (water bottles) on test at La Velocita for a couple of weeks now.  If you are a Rapha fan it's a no brainer addition to your Rapha collection. But for the non-Rapha contingent amongst you the question is are these water bottles any different?

Knog Party Combo

Today we are having a look at the Knog Party Combo bike lock.

It's a 620mm long combination lock that is covered in silicone making it smooth to the touch and gentle on your bike.  Don't be fooled though.  Under the soft cover is a tough graded steel cable with a fibre core designed to keep your bike safe while you are away.
