Park PFP-3 Home Mechanic Floor Pump

The PFP-3 is designed for the home mechanic who wants pro quality.

A steel body and handle provides durability needed of a track pump, while the three point base gives the stability needed. The composite head will fit both Presta and Schrader valves, and the mid-mounted, industrial quality pressure gauge provides easy reading.

Like the PFP-2, the pump is completely rebuildable.

Cost: US$23.95

Cateye Mity 8 bike computer

The Cateye Mity 8 features a redesigned body style allowing for a larger screen size and numbers along with a lightweight sensor wire for on-road use.

Dual trip distance for keeping track of intermediate or multi-day distances while the dual tire size means the computer can be swapped between bikes.

Features also include cadence, maximum/average/current speed and distance, and the clamp will fit almost any fork and bar diameter.

Price: US$20.00

Oury Lock-On grips

Combining the the stability of a lock-on grip, with the comfort and quality of Oury's anti-vibration, large pad design, the new ODI Lock Jaw compatible grips are perfect for mountain bike usage in all conditions.

The extremely soft rubber grip is held in place with the ODI Lock Jaw clamps, and the grip section can be replaced when worn.

The grips are available as either a grip only, or as a bonus pack with ODI Lock Jaw clamps and end plugs as shown.

Price: US$24.99 (grips only)
