popcorn_skollie Posted November 13, 2015 Share http://ep1.pinkbike.org/p5pb12683888/p5pb12683888.jpgI wonder if this is more comfortable than the usual shoulder strap variety. The only downside for me is that it won't work for slogging up a fullface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odinson Posted November 13, 2015 Share I could easily see that Turbine nostril stretcher in a USN catalogue - right next to the Oxygenated Water and Hardcore Fat Burner tablets with 100% Pure Serpentes Oil Extract.

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted November 13, 2015 Share I could easily see that Turbine nostril stretcher in a USN catalogue - right next to the Oxygenated Water and Hardcore Fat Burner tablets with 100% Pure Serpentes Oil Extract.in this case, it actually seems as if it works at least partially. A far more effective nasal strip, in effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted November 13, 2015 Share I'm a sceptic when it comes to the actual effectiveness of the Turbine, but looking at the top end of the sport if it gives even a 1% improvement it could be worth it. Marginal gains and all.For us "average" Hubbers though, I'm not sure the marginal gains are quite enough to offset the mockery or inability to blow your nose.The guys down over at CyclingTips delved into this one a bit. A long, but interesting read (though at this stage no conclusive, independent studies available): http://cyclingtips.com.au/2014/08/the-turbine-backed-by-science-or-a-simple-placebo/Â Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizkit031 Posted November 13, 2015 Share The Palos is quite popular overseas,been looking for One for a while now but agents in SA can't even return Emails. Now there is the Palos4LR as well. According to Camelbak site this one is the normal Palos not the 4LR Edited November 13, 2015 by Bizkit031 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipsqueak Posted November 13, 2015 Share The only people who poo-poo riding with a "fanny pack" are the ones that haven'y tried it. Beats a backpack hands down any day. When you consider that you look like a knob in cycling gear anyway, a moonbag isn't going to do you any more harm. It's the way forward. You're even going to see them at Enduro races soon. Bizkit031 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
