First Look

Pinarrello Paris 105

A 2022 Pinarello Paris came in on trade. Steve rode it before the shop tore it down, found twisted cables inside the frame, and put it back together for the floor. Ride impressions and how the trade-in process actually works.

Cervelo Aspero-5 Modified

A 2026 Cervélo Áspero-5 Force build with two key changes from stock — drivetrain swapped from XO Transmission mullet to Force XPLR 1×13, and wheels swapped from Reserve to Zipp 303 Explorers. Steve’s take on why, and what kind of bike this really is.

Jamis Ventura All Road — Shimano CUES | Bike Review

Jamis Ventura Allroad

A first look at the Jamis Ventura All Road — a sub-$1,600 aluminum all-road bike with Shimano CUES 2×10, a Ritchey cockpit, and more tire clearance than the spec sheet suggests. We mounted labeled-40 Challenge Getaways and they fit with room to spare.
