Giant Anthem X2 Mountain Bike Review
By Editor | July 7, 2010
The Giant Anthem X2 is a line of mountain bikes that are a little more tuned towards trails as opposed to racing. The geometry and travel of the mountain bike is longer at 4 inches instead of 3.5 inch. You would think that the Giant Anthem X2’s long travel would make the bike slower, but the X2 goes full speed like a racer with good handling.

Merrell Riot Review – Breathable All-Round Rugged Shoe
By Editor | July 2, 2010
The Merrell Riot is made of a few different plastics and fabrics. It has an outdoor look, but the shoe is quite versatile, the look has nothing to do with how this shoe performs when out trekking. The mesh upper breathes very well, so it will help your feet keep cool and comfortable. The upper is also water-resistant and does a good job repelling light rain and snow.

Mammut Lucido X-Zoom – LED Headlamp
By Editor | June 26, 2010
Turn on the lamp with a twist of the barrel lens and the Mammut Lucido X-Zoom will focus its beam on where ever you are looking. For a more concentrated beam for greater distance use the spot-mode which will project the light 450 feet so you can see well ahead. To save battery power and diffuse the light a bit, you can simply turn and dial the barrel lens back a little for a longer lasting less concentrated glow.

Most of the Marmot Abode 2P is made of mesh and it features two doors which is great when the weather is warm and muggy providing great ventilation. The Abode 2P has a full-coverage fly which keeps windy rain from getting into the mesh, and the tent features a pole structure that is unique.
The tent poles are springing and keeps the Marmot Abode 2P’s tent structure well without too much flexing in high winds.
