Review: Forze Tri Custom Socks

FORZE Tri (pronounced “force“) was founded in 2013 in Southern California.  FORZE  has set out to make socks that look great and perform well under all conditions.   The FORZE Tri custom cycling socks that we use for the SoCalCycling.com Team are fantastic.

There are nice padded sections for the heel and the ball of the foot, with great compression throughout the upper section and a nice breathable fabric throughout the rest […]

We can […]

FSA Energy Compact Alloy Handlebars

Product Review: FSA Energy Compact Alloy Handlebars

The 2020 FSA Energy Compact Alloy Handlebars maintain the double butted and tapered aluminum alloy construction, the semi-aero ergo flat shape on top and the compact drop from the previous version of the FSA Energy Compact Alloy Handlebar. The weight is slightly less due to less material from the channels for the cables that are routed in the bars while maintaining the strength. With the FSA Energy Compact Alloy Handlebars having short bends on the top of the handlebars it […]
