This past week we continued with our Sea Otter coverage, saw perhaps a few too many e-bike things, and filled in between all that with new bikes from State, Argon and more. From Sea Otter comes new tools, components and a closer look at a few things that had been introduced just prior to the show. But perhaps the biggest news this week was the all-new CycleOps Hammer, a nearly silent direct drive trainer that, dare we say it, could make indoor training enjoyable!
