The Tanglefoot Moonshiner is a woods exploration bike conceived in and for the kind of riding you’ll find in Vermont and throughout New England. But its prowess doesn’t end there. It’s a bike for getting outside in the playful adventurous spirit that all-terrain bikes were supposed to be for. Dig in to this lengthy discussion to find out why—after riding one in a variety of conditions for a couple of months—Joe is excited and enthusiastic for what Tanglefoot has achieved.
The Bassi Hog’s Back is a chromoly steel all-road touring bike that’s equally suited to multi-week expeditions and running errands around town. Bikes are assembled to order for each customer, have a charming classic look, and come at a price that’s relatively easy on the wallet. We’ve been testing out a custom build for the last few months.

Find our full review here after hundreds of miles trail riding, gravel grinding, and bikepacking…

Joe spent six months last year on the Kona Rove LTD. Even with limited opportunities for far afield adventure, he took it on multiple bikepacking trips in New England and on countless day rides. Following Kona’s recent announcement of its 2022 Roves with essentially only a color change for the LTD, we share this review…
The Fairlight Faran 2.0 packs a ton of utilitarian features (and a few surprises) into a European-made steel frameset with incredible attention to detail. We had the chance to put one through its paces while gravel riding, bikepacking, and everything in between for this in-depth review.
Released today, the Canyon Grizl is a new drop-bar gravel bike with clearance for 700 x 50mm tires, lots of mounting points, and features that cater to long days in the saddle. We’ve been testing out the Grizl CF SL 8 build prior to today’s release—equipped with a set of co-branded Apidura bags—to discover what it does best. Find our review here…
With a well-rounded build kit, a dynamo hub, and all the mounting points you could ever need, the Decathlon Riverside Touring 920 is purpose-built for the long haul. Priced at around $1,800 USD, we were curious to see if this wallet-friendly adventure rig was as capable on the dirt as it is on paper. Find our review here…
With clearance for 29 x 2.1″ or 27.5 x 2.25″ tires, loads of mounts, and an interesting Tuning Chip dropout system, the Otso Waheela C captured our attention from the moment it was released a couple of years ago. The 2021 model was just updated and we finally got to try it out for this review…
The Kona Sutra ULTD “UnLimTeD” is a bike that aims to blur boundaries and tackle any terrain. After six months riding singletrack, bikepacking, and gravelling the ULTD all around the southern Appalachians, Logan picks this beast apart and compares it to its older sibling, the venerable Sutra LTD. Find the full, long-term review here…
