We invite you to look closer at the Osymetric chainrings, the On Cloudsurfer running shoes, the Purple Harry Bike Floss and the Endurance Conspiracy bike slang t-shirt. Enjoy.
Osymetric rings
What: You have seen various Pros sporting these unique looking chainrings and Bobby Julich has been a passionate supporter of them for quite some time now. Bradley Wiggins and various other Team Sky athletes are currently working them over and now they are available in the USA too.
Sizes: Various
MSRP: $299 per set
Website: osymetricUSA.com
On Cloudsurfer
What: With the On Cloudsurfer running shoes you can be quite certain to stand out in a crowd. Kenyan marathon champ Tegla Loroupe really knows how to move these flashy shoes, but according to On they aren't about the looks, but about comfort. Swiss Pro triathlete Olivier Bernhard is heavily involved in this relatively young brand.
Colors: black/lime, grey/azur, rose/pink (women)
MSRP: $149

Purple Harry Bike Floss
What: A filthy drive train doesn't really work well and a dirty bike should really make everyone cringe. For those of us who really care along those lines, the British brand Purple Harry comes to the rescue with a variety of cleaning products. The Purple Harry Bike Floss allows you to get into those hard to reach places where your fingers are on mission impossible. The two bristle options are for chains, cassettes and brakes etc, while the softer fleece version is for carbon bits.
Sizes: M and L bristle, L fleece
MSRP: £12.99 for all three, £4.49 individual

Endurance Conspiracy Bike Slang
What: You are very familiar with many of these terms, but folks in the grocery store line near you might just stare at your chest to figure out what it all means, unless of course you live in Boulder, Colorado. This new Endurance Conspiracy shirt with a bit of a Wordle feel is made from soft organic cotton and it can be yours if the price is right.
Sizes: S-XL
MSRP: $30
