Beautiful tyres for XC riders
Review of IRC Mythos Steel by
Pritch
Advantages: Nice tyre, sheds mud, corners, stops, goes, nuff said
Disadvantages: Can be a swine to get on the wheel properly
...I bought a new pair of wheels the other , and these are what came attached to them. The tyres are available in two widths, 1.95" and 2.1", in my case, I'm using the more svelte 1.95" tyres. Looks are certainly impressive, with the red sidewalls going nicely with my red and black Trek, but who cares what they look like when push comes to shove? Anyway, after a good thrash, the red dissapears under a sea of mud.
Anyway, off we go to our regular riding spot, a quick bimble along the tarmac cycle path and then off into deepest darkest woodland. Riding along the tarmac, rolling resistance is pleasantly low and I'm getting worried about how the tyres will handle anything more severe than loose gravel. Maybe I should have brought my road bike with me instead?
No.
Actually, get them off-road, and the IRCs really behave themselves...

Taylormade V-Steel
Review of TaylorMade V Steel by
chrisyboy
Advantages: Everything
Disadvantages: Paintwork
...As a keen golfer myself who has risen from a 36 handicap to a 17 in 1 year, i have chnaged my clubs over and over again looking for the perfect club give me great feel, distance and one that when you pick it up looks great, well i believe this club does it all.
Approximately 6 months ago, i was looking for a new 3 wood which gave me as much distance off of the turf (floor) as it did off of the tee, so I went to the local driving range to look for a average price 3 wood that compared to the top brands at the time, this of course being the new nike saquatch and the callaway big bertha. Brousing the shop i came across the Taylormade V-steel priced and £69.99 reduced from £149.99. As a good deal goes i felt drawn in by nearly £100 being reduced fromt he club and decieded to give it ago which wa probably the best decision of the night...
