Purchase Mongoose ShowTime Boy's Bike (16-Inch Wheels)


the bike is great, my son loved it. the only big problem was the fact that the assembly instructions and the owners manual are the same book...and on top of that it gives you instructions on building 3 different bikes, and often times it isn't clear which piece of which bike we're building. the bike was pretty much assembled when it arrived....we just had to put on the seat, the handle bars, and the fron tire, and the pedals...and tighten a few screws here and there. i just don't understand why the company tried to save pennies by making one assembly chart and owners manual for three different bikes, and they didn't do it well either, i mean they could have atleast seperated the different bikes in the book, but no they just appear in random order in very poorly drawn diagrams and poorly worded instructions and its never clearly noted what bike assembly we're looking at...just ridiculous.Get more detail about Mongoose ShowTime Boy's Bike (16-Inch Wheels).

Order Under Armour Heatgear Compression Short Mens - X Large


I have no idea how good or bad this item is. Amazon advertised size M for this item and I ordered it. When it came it was S. and I didn't know it until after my grandson brought it back saying it was the wrong size. When I looked it was a S. I had thrown all the papers away so I am stuck with a size small for the next yard sale I have or someone has.Get more detail about Under Armour Heatgear Compression Short Mens - X Large.

Where To Buy Avenir Classic Cool Cycling Gloves


The gloves are a little tight - just need some more breaking in. Otherwise they fit well and are quite comfortable. A good choice.Get more detail about Avenir Classic Cool Cycling Gloves.

Shop For M-Wave Bicycle Triangle Frame Bag


This is a great addition to my bicycles. It hooks up easily, is out of the way and holds surpisingly a good amount of stuff. Innovative way to add storage to a bicycle. Well worth the price.Get more detail about M-Wave Bicycle Triangle Frame Bag.

Topeak MTX Trunk Bag DX Bicycle Trunk Bag with Rigid Molded Panels


I bike a lot. I have probably owned 6-7 carrier bags. This is simply the best one yet. Other bags had individual features not contained in the Topeak MTX, but overall, this one is the winner. It is deceptively large. I am always amazed at how much stuff I can get into this bag. The two side pockets are rigid, but hold a lot of odds and ends. The main compartment has a Velcro divider, should you choose to use it. I divide mine about 20%/80%, with the 20% being in the front. I put small items and heavy stuff in the front 20%, with the 80% available for snacks, an extra shirt, maps, etc. There is a small internal pocket on the zip-top for a billfold, etc. There is also an external net-pocket and a tie-down cord on the top of the bag.

The only features where I would score one of my other bags higher are 1) one of my bags had a "secret" pocket for money, etc. that the Topeak does not offer, and 2) the zippered expansion area on the Topeak is not as large as on a couple of my other bags.

Lastly, if you get the matching Topeak seat-post rack, this bags just slides on and locks into place. It's a great system.Get more detail about Topeak MTX Trunk Bag DX Bicycle Trunk Bag with Rigid Molded Panels.
