  • its no secret that costco has some sick deals on all sorts of cool things. heck, you can get the intense 951 bike that I have there. but did you know the Gerry venture shorts and cool knit shirt from Costco work as mountain bike gear?
    watch the video as I do a quick breakdown and review of the kit and see if it's worth the $30 I paid for it.
    let me know what you think of this Costco find.

    Gerry has been around for ages. In fact, Gerry down jackets were quite popular in the late 70s,/early 80s.

    I just bought dri-fit shirts and basketball shorts at first, waaaay cheaper than named mtb brands when the fabric is all the same.
    As I get more into the sport, I bought bib shorts and stretchable mesh pants. Saved a lot of money tbh.

    Cheap kit is all I use. $30 wrangler atg pants for under 50F and some walmart special shorts with regular liner for $15 that they dont make anymore. Ill snag a pair of those shorts for sure! Man that abandoned jump trail is better than some folks local trails!

      @acebikemedia  Před 15 dny

      I got the wrangler atg has well. Love those pants! The abandoned trail could be so much better if the local club had interest in getting reopened. It's technically part of a bit of a land dispute

    I like CostCo's Spyder brand of generic athletic wear. The tops are 2 for 25$ Canadian, and they run longer in the back so they do not ride up. The long sleeve cool gear is pretty sweet for cold weather riding as well.

      Pick it up while it's still in stores. Prices seem to vary a little but shouldn't be more than $30 for both shorts and shirt

    Nice jump line, someone needs to revive that beauty. So few good jumps around here. Or flow for that matter :) Nice cheap kit. I just buy the expensive stuff in the middle of winter. 140 dollar shorts for 40 bucks and really expensive nice jerseys for 20 bucks but no one can complain about a cheap kit! Where is this place in Milwaukee is it part of oak creek? or somewhere else?

    • @acebikemedia
      @acebikemedia  Před 13 dny

      I'm the same. Usually buy the good shit off season when it's cheap. But yea I wish that trail would get revived. It's part of the old rock bike park in Franklin wi. If your looking for flow and jumps, check out heritage bike park in slinger. 30-45 min north of Milwaukee depending on where your coming from. I just posted a sweet reel on our Instagram page from riding there yesterday.

      Yea I guess technically you are allowed to ride them. I climb the ski hill at least once everytime I go so I hit the jumps on the way down.

      @acebikemedia  Před 17 dny

      Your telling me. It's very frustrating. There was some legality issues and land disputes. The local MTB club did nothing to help. Actually made the situation worse in my opinion. Now it's sort of a local forgotten relic unfortunately

      Definitely wasn't great, but also that part of the trial is essentially in a river bed so it doesn't get much better, ever 😂
