While most of the crew is out west for the MADE Bike Show<\/a>, I rolled through Outdoor Retailer\u2019s<\/a> new venue in Minneapolis, MN, to see what\u2019s new for other outdoor activities. Turns out, there was quite a bit of very cool bike stuff on display, plus some camping gear that was perfectly suited for bikepacking, and more! Here\u2019s the best cycling bits from OR2026\u2026<\/p>\n

Donkey Label Titanium Gravel Bike<\/h2>\n

While they weren\u2019t using the word, I\u2019ll say it \u2013 Monster Gravel. This beast crammed 29\u00d72.35\u2033 mountain bike tires into the frame and fork. Realistically, it\u2019s designed for up to 700\u00d750, as tires this big create some real clearance issues, particularly at the fork\u2019s crown. And they raise the BB height, and your center of gravity, which takes the handling down a notch.<\/p>\n
