The ORNOT Lightweight Mission Pant ($165), a staff favorite over here, got a few new colors for 2024. They’re now available in Stone Blue and Nightshady…
For the start of summer, Hailey Moore shares a brief review of four casual women’s cycling short options: the Rapha Women’s Explore Shorts, ORNOT Women’s Mission Short, Fjällräven S/F Rider’s Hybrid Short and Ripton Diesel Jorts. Find your new warm-weather uniform for on and off the bike!
ORNOT‘s popular cargo bibs have been upgraded with super luxurious fabric, an extra soft finish, and improved compression that hits the sweet spot. The bibs also received wider grippers that ensure these supportive bibs stay exactly where you want them.
All of the best features that earned these bibs numerous accolades have remained, including the dense endurance chamois, soft and stretchy straps, droptail back panel design allowing easy bathroom breaks without removing your jersey, and of course, the pockets (one on each leg).
While the fabric is new, it’s still Oeko-Tex certified and made from recycled content, ensuring safe and responsible production.
ORNOT has been working on developing the women’s version of its Lightweight Mission Shorts since these first came out for men, years ago, and the day has finally arrived.
The winner of our Apparel of the Year award last year just got even lighter. The ORNOT Mission Pants are a staff favorite over here and we’ve been wearing these new lightweight Mission Pants for a while now. They’ve everything we love about the Mission Pants: great fit, on- or off-the-bike cut, stretchy, quick-drying (PFAS free), and minimal bulk, with a new lightweight fabric. Check out all the specs and details at ORNOT.
As seen in our Sea Otter Classic coverage, ORNOT just released these extremely packable Micro Musettes, made in collaboration with artist Chris Mcnally ($38).

While our favorite stories are always ride and event coverage, people love flocking to The Radavist for our opinion on products. We view ourselves as the bike industry’s press corps, offering nuanced takes on hot items each year, while pushing back ever so slightly on the long arm of the industry’s marketing. This year, we cracked a lot of hard nuts but walked away with some compelling products—some of which deserve extra recognition—all while deciphering the world of bikes we know and love, and penning opinion pieces that garnered lots of eyes throughout the past twelve months.
Let’s check out The Radavist Product Awards and our Top 10 Articles of 2023 below!
Over the years I’ve slowly tinkered with my touring setup to really nail down which pieces of kit work best for the type of riding I do and where I’m heading next. I’m always looking for new products that are versatile in terms of the climate and terrain they can be used on, and most importantly I want them to last, as this stuff can be difficult to replace while on the road. Most of the items on this list are things I’ve started to use over the last year or two, but there are also a couple of items that have been a staple of my setup for the last 7 years.
It’s been a wild year around these parts. In addition to the organizational changes we experienced with this website, I feel fortunate to have met and collaborated with many amazing people in addition to traveling to some truly remarkable places. My list of favorite products ended up being rather eclectic, but I think it reflects the wide range of material we get to cover here. Of course, music was an integral backdrop to my work – on rides, traveling abroad, and with my family at home – so I have joined some of our other contributors in offering a selection of favorite tunes, alongside a handful of products, below.
