GET MORE INDEPENDENT REVIEWS

Want to save yourself money and time and support this site’s ability to get you more in-depth and independent, comparative and conflict-of-interest free reviews?

Simply click on and buy your gear through the links you see in the posts or at Know’s Shop to stores I’ve found offer the best prices and highest customer satisfaction levels on road cycling gear.

My current top-ranked stores are Competitive Cyclist, BTD (BikeTiresDirect), and Merlin Cycles.

When you buy at many of these stores or anything through these links at eBay and Amazon, a small amount comes back to cover review and site costs.
