InsideOutdoor | WINTER 2022 33 Dynafit The new TLT helmet offers an ultralight, stylish, low-profile ski touring helmet with triple certification that is at home in several athletic pursuits. It fulfills not only the certification standards for skiing but also for mountaineering/climbing, as well as cycling, making it ideally suited for modern multisport adventures and demanding Speed tours. SRP is $150. Alchemy Bikes Designed as the natural complement to the highly touted Ronin gravel bike, the Rogue adds increased off-road capability, thanks to a slacker head tube angle, super-wide tire clearance and updated geometry that’s highly effective at absorbing chatter and bumps, said the company. While the Ronin is happiest on more established gravel/dirt/paved roads, the new Rogue yearns to go further afield, where gravel roads become doubletrack and even semi-technical singletrack. Other features such as ultra-tough Cerakote paint and SRAM’s Universal Derailleur Hanger promise added versatility, range and durability. SRP for the frameset is $4,299; full builds run $7,999 to $9,999. Gregory Mountain Products The Tempo H20 and Pace H20 define Gregory’s new Active Insulated Hydration category. The packs feature an integrated hydration compartment that combines a vapor-barrier liner with specialized insulation layers to keep water cold twice as long as Gregory’s standard hydration packs, said the company. Gregory’s 3D Hydro Reservoir comes with the pack, as well as a breathable 3D foam back panel for a snug and comfortable fit. U-Zip access to the hydration reservoir pocket simplifies refills, and a front stretchmesh pocket provides additional on-the-go storage. Hustle Bike Labs Avery REMtech Pedals are built with neodymium magnets, “the world’s most powerful magnets,” said Hustle. These magnets firmly hold feet in place when pulling up in a pedal stroke for added power. But it’s much easier to twist, slide or angle your foot to release, unlike traditional clipless pedals which require an awkward/unnatural movement to disengage. Another advantage of the pedals is that they provide the safety and versatility of flat/platform pedals. The wider platform is easier to step on, and power can be delivered even if the shoe is not perfectly seated on the pedal. And by adjusting the number and position of the optional traction pins, the outsole of a shoe can have more or less contact with the pins for greater side-to-side stability, and this also allows for adjustment of the amount of magnetic pull – the higher the pins the lower the pull. Available in three colors, SRP is $219.
