In order to better focus on in-depth riding and reviews, the bikefix crew have packed up and will now be reviewing gear at Bikerumor.com!
Bikerumor has long been our favorite stop for timely cycling and gear-related news- but we always thought that they were a bit thin when it came to verbose reviews and overly complicated sentence structure. So come on over! We'll be doing what we do and hopefully bringing a new, different, and interesting perspective to a whole bunch more riders. Thanks to everyone who's made the past few years possible and the next few so promising!

What happened to Bikefix?!

Sounds like a good move to be part of a bigger site. Although what i liked about your reviews was the down to earth real-life usage/experiences that you guys tend to write about. Hopefully this perspective will not be lost with your move to a bigger site.
nkhadakk,
Thanks for your comments- I think that you'll be easily able to identify reviews from the bikefix crew, even without looking at the bylines...

hmmm, i realize that you guys have full time jobs/activities/lifes other than blogging... but as a follower of your blog, i should say output seems to have decreased(on bikerumor). This is the time to have winter/fall specific product reviews. Been reading couple of british bike mags (SingletrackWorld) and like their irreverent attitude to bike companies and their sense of humour. Would be great to have some of this attitude injected into most of the 'staid'/politically correct articles on bikeRumor. Also would be nice to have a bikeRumor perspective on some of these press releases bikeRumour seems to think make for bike reporting ? Just acting as an aggregator of bike company press releases makes for really really boring reading. Mbaction online can get away with it, since they have a print magazine..and all they need is teasers on their website.. but if bikeRumor wants to increase the amount of time readers spend on their site and increase clicks....they need more meat/perspective /valueadd etc etc.
