Rockgeist Microwave Panniers Now in Ultra PE 200 ALUULA Fabric
Rockgeist went right to work this year with an update to the original Porcelain Rocket-designed Microwave Panniers. Being a brand that’s focused on always producing the best possible, water-proof products, Rockgeist has now began making its Microwave Pannier drybags welded with an Ultra PE Fabric from ALUULA. The North Carolina-based maker upped the ante by including a Ultra 200 face for the holster bags themselve. This drops weight and adds a significant bump in abrasion resistance to this already bomber setup.
You can find these linked from the Rockgeist homepage in the drop down menu for the fabric selection. Retail is $335 for these upgraded bags.

Ryan’s Favorite Products of 2023
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.

Radar Roundup
Our Radar Roundup is where we take some of the news items to come across our inboxes into an easy-to-digest dump of sorts, culling down the clutter from our homepage and making it easier to stay on top of what’s going on in our little corner of the cycling industry. This will come particularly in handy when it comes to spring/summer product drops from our favorite brands.
Check out our Radar Roundup below with products, videos, and a Radavision entry…

Rockgeist is Now Stocking Porcelain Rocket Welded Bar Bags
A few weeks ago, Porcelain Rocket announced they were selling their bag designs and technology to the Ashville, NC brand Rockgeist. Over the weekend, Porcelain Rocket and Rockgeist posted on their Instagram that they now have two Porcelain Rocket designs for sale, the Nigel bar bag and the Meanwhile Wald Basket Bag. Both of these bags use welded seam technology, resulting in a waterproof portage option from a small company. Head to Rockgeist to see more.
