R 1900 DT Swiss Wheel set
BICYCLING.COM EDITORIAL REVIEW
Precision, and the cost associated with attention to detail, usually come to mind when you think of Swiss bike components. DT Swiss is trying to change the cost part of that stereotype with its value oriented R 1900 wheelset. The Swiss wheels are machine laced and then hand finished in DT's Poland facility. They feature sealed bearing hubs, but the rear hub features a two pawl Shimano compatible freehub system instead of the super durable Star Ratchet system found on its higher end hubs. Bladed stainless steel spokes are laced to a semi aero alloy rim that has a sleeve joint instead of a welded joint found on DT's more costly rims.
The less expensive two-pawl freehub never popped or misbehaved and the sleeve-jointed rims have machined sidewalls so they exhibit excellent braking without pulsing. We rotated the wheels on different bikes including higher-end rides and the Swiss wheels never felt or looked out of place. The DT R 1900 is a great choice for the rider looking for an inexpensive wheelset that's durable, rides nice and looks great. –Ron Koch

Michelin service course PRO3 Racing Tires (2 tires)
Michelin Pro3 Race is a high performance clincher road racing tire with a new dual-compound tread that is derived from the Moto GP division. Delivering 20% more straight line grip than the Pro2 Race. The new shoulder rubber offers a huge 40% improvement.
Michelin says the Moto GP compounds are also more deformable, helping maintain grip on coarser pavement while reducing rolling resistance. For added security, the Pro3 Race casing gains a new High Density Puncture Protector (HDPP) nylon belt, yet total claimed weight is still highly competitive at just 200g for the 700x23c size. 116 PS

Jersey from 2009 Nature Valley Grand Prix (Size Small) NEW
A Little History of the Nature Valley Grand Prix:
The Nature Valley Bicycle Festival got its start in 1998, when the Lance Armstrong Foundation approached David LaPorte and asked for help to create a Twin Cities replica of the popular Austin, Texas-based Ride for the Roses. LaPorte launched the Tour de Wings in 1999.
In 2000, Great River Energy became a major sponsor and the event was named the Touchstone Energy Bicycle Festival. Track racing at the NSC Velodrome featured a four-day EDS Cup and the criterium moved from the state Capitol to downtown Saint Paul.
Nature Valley Granola Bars joined as a festival in 2001 and a new road race stage was added. Great River Energy sponsored the U.S. Track National Championships during the festival, which attracted capacity crowds at the National Sports Center and the festival made its first charitable donation to Camp Heartland.
From 2002 to 2006, the festival grew into a major annual Minnesota sporting event. Renamed The Great River Energy Bicycle Festival and Nature Valley Grand Prix, new venues and communities got involved, ultimately making the festival a six-stage race over a five-day period.
The Nature Valley Grand Prix also became a key race for professional women as the field tripled in size and teams began seeking registration months in advance. The popularity of the event helped the Nature Valley Grand Prix rise to become the most important women’s stage race in North America. The festival also named Children’s Hospital its sole charitable beneficiary of the proceeds created by the event.
In 2007, the Nature Valley Grand Prix became the top level stage race on the USA Cycling National Racing Calendar. Organizers also launched a women’s Collegiate All-Stars team, the first of its kind in the nation. Most recently, both the men’s and women’s races became invitation only events, topping out at 140 female and 140 male riders. Nature Valley also added a national talent identification program, the Nature Valley Pro Ride, which selects two teams of six men and six women at qualifier races held in the U.S. attend and compete as part of the Nature Valley Cycling Team.
This jersey is a commemorative jersey from the event donated by Katheryn Mattis. |
