Editorial Review :
Halo 2 Headbands use a patented water-tight seal to keep your eyes sweat free. Dryline fabric provides rapid evaporation to help keep your head cool.
Customer Review :
Halo 2 stands true.
Does what it says. Only thing sis when you worked out a good amount and have a build up of sweet and you bend over to tie your shoe you will start to leak from the front. Very light weight. It ok, I prefer the old fassion sweetbands myself, but I use this one when its reall hot out.

Perfect if you don't sweat
I bought this primarily to use for cycling. First the positive: It is thin and my helmet fits over it quite well. And it does provide sun protection for my forehead. Negative: On a hot ride, this is useful for ~20 minutes. After that, it is saturated [yes, I sweat alot] and with my head tipped forward in the normal riding position the yellow strip just funnels sweat down my hairline and into my eyes. This is ok for light exercise only.

I'm still looking for a solution to excessive sweat in the eyes
The search for a solution to excessive sweating while riding my bike continues. I just can't seem to find the right product. I really thought this would work based on the reviews here, but for me, it fills up with sweat in about about 30 minutes (10 miles in to my 20 mile daily workout). I had been using a combination of a sweat band and the Sweat Gutr (which I also bought here on Amazon). So, I am giving this a middle of the road review for my use. YMMV.
I am planning on trying a combination of the Halo with the Gutr next. The problem with the Gutr is that the sweat sneaks in at the indent between my eyebrows. If I tighten it too much, I get a headache. Plus, if I put my head down while wearing the Gutr, the sweat gets in my eyes. Maybe a combination of both of these will work.
EDIT: After using this headband WITH the Sweat Gutr, on a very hot day, I am happy to report that the combination of these two products worked pretty well. I had a few drops in my eyes, which is to be expected, but all in all, it worked very well.

No more sweat in eyes or ears! Awesome!
Works great! Keeps the sweat out of my eyes and ears for my entire workout. Keeps my ear buds from getting sweaty.
Rating :     
Works great, much better than Sweat GUTR for me
Amazingly absorbent. Can handle all the sweat I throw at it on 2.5 hour ride in 95+ degree humid weather(which is quite a lot). May get saturated beyond this point, but I haven't been able to test this of yet. Helmet liner is usually way drier than previously experienced.
Only downside is it seems to retain a small amount of heat, but otherwise it's been a great solution for keeping the sweat out of my eyes and off my lenses and is very comfortable to wear.

Love the Ibert!!!
I wish we had bought this a year ago. The Ibert is such a great bike seat. I wouldn't go off road with our son in it, but it made getting around town and cruising so much more convenient. I tell all our friends about our Ibert and so should you.

iBert Safe-T Seat - Great Product for young riders!
We purchased this child seat in the hopes that our son, who is 10 months old, would have a more engaging experience on our family bike rides. We have a pull-behind trailer for longer trips or when he's tired, but we thought he would enjoy this front-facing seat better. We have not been disappointed.
The seat mount attached to our Trek Soho with very little trouble and there is good clearance around the handlebars and the frame. The seat slides onto the mount and attaches firmly and securely. There are harness-style over the shoulder belts as well as a crossbar to secure our son, and there is very little possibility of him wiggling out or getting turned around. He wouldn't be interested in turning around, anyway, because with this seat all of the action is right in front of him.
The seat does somewhat limit your ability to make extremely sharp turns, mainly due to our knees possibly hitting the bottom of the seat, but this is not a real problem because you would not be making those types of sudden and extreme movements with a child on board anyway. Normal operation of the bike is not affected with this seat.
The balance on the bike is still very reasonable and manageable even with the little guy out over the front handlebars. Brakes and shifters are still easy to get to and operate.
Our overall satisfaction with this purchase is extremely high, the build quality and components used on the seat are first rate, and we would highly recommend it to anyone with young kids who are tired of their bike trailer, or who aren't quite big enough for their own bikes yet.

Wish I would have bought this pump right away
This is my third bicycle pump; in the past, I've used a frame pump (which I keep mostly for emergencies since it's difficult to do much else with it), the Schwinn Double Barrel Foot Pump (I'll discuss this one later), and finally this floor pump. This is the best one by far. The foot pump, despite the well respected name, was difficult to use to inflate to higher pressures. The hose would leak at higher pressures, which made it difficult for me to inflate my tires--sometimes I would lose more air than I put in! Additionally, like I said, the frame pump is not typically used as a primary pump (especially for higher-pressure tires).
This pump is different. It is a lot easier to pump than I thought (easier than the foot pump!), it inflates rapidly, and it had no problem reaching the 80 psi I was going for. (It claims to max out at 120, although my experience shows that manufacturers tend to be slightly misleading with these statements. Still, I didn't feel like I was anywhere near the max for this pump when I stopped at 80 like I did with my foot pump, which also claimed 120. However, if you are looking for something approaching 120, you'll probably want to go with a more expensive model than this; I see some rated for 160 and beyond.) Additionally, the gauge seems to be accurate based on my readings with another gauge.
There are both Schrader and Presta heads (no adapter needed, which is also nice), as well as a small bag of accessories for other types of inflatables. Do keep in mind that the picture on Amazon as I write this is angled; the actual pump may be taller than you'd imagine based on that. It also has a sturdy base, which helps it stand on its own as you pump.
After going through other pumps, I wish I would have bought this one first and saved myself the troubhe of the others. It is by far my favorite to use of the three I've tried (it's almost fun to do my twice-weekly tire pressure check and inflation--well, compared to the pain of of the others), and I recommend it for someone looking for a good and affordably priced bike pump. It works great for my needs, and it's easy and fast to use.

Excellent
I have had this for two years now and it's still the best bike pump I've ever owned.

Great bike pump!
This bike pump is sturdy, comfortable to use, and pumps air in bike tires fast. It is also great that it has a pressure gauge so it is easy to monitor when to stop pumping!

Customer Review :
Sturdy well designed inexpensive water bottle holder
After reading the other reviews here on amazon i purchased this water bottle holder and couldn't be happier mounting it was simple and straight forward. While it is plastic it is very durable as others have mentioned. The dial on the underside is a great feature which allows you to adjust the cage depending on the bottle. I use a 700ml stainless steel nathan bottle which fits without issue - it would be equally at home with a small plastic bottle too. All in all well worth the money

Get This Bottle Cage
Stop searching for a bottle cage, because this is the one to get. Tough plastic, easy adjustable feature fits to any bottle size (within reason), and it's $6. You can't go wrong. Very happy with this product, and I'm probably gonna buy another.

It's adjustable
This item is very light and with the adjustable base it seems to be a better idea for carrying your water bottle.

Topeak water bottle cage
Very light and sturdy construction. Easy to install and easy to make it regular or medium size. I wish I will go up to large size so that I can carry a 750 ml to a liter bottle. The only problem I had was it came with no screws to mount.

Simple-to-use Bike computer
So far so good! I like that all you have to do is push the bottom of the screen to cycle through the different settings. The only complaint I have is that it's not more customizable; I don't need some of the settings, and it takes several clicks to get from distance to time, which takes my eyes off the road.

Great Computer
Overall, this is a great computer and does everything advertised and does it well. Unfortunately, I paid full retail price at my bike shop (aboout $70) and from the reviews, it seems like a better deal to buy it online and home install (I had it installed when I bought my bike). The shop said to expect the battery to last about a year, depending on usage. The computer fits right on the stem so it doesn't get in the way on the handlebars. The display is quite large and easy to read on the ride. It's also easy to reset -- just have to remember to do that before the day starts. The dual trip odometer is also a really nice feature that you might not think you need, but it's great to have to mark separate milestones. Flipping through funtions is also easy at the touch of a button, but it takes some time to get used to the display order when surfing.
One thing to be careful about is the alignment of the wireless receiver on the fork and the wheel. I had my bike shipped and the computer wasn't working when I took it for a test ride. I went back to the shop and their guys made sure the magnet and the reader were close enough together to send the signal to the computer (took less than 5 min for them to diagnose and fix). It's worked like a charm ever since.
The one function I wish it had were cadence. If I had done a little more research on bike computers, I would have gone with the double wireless Strada from Cateye CatEye Strada Double Wireless Bicycle Computer - CC-RD400DW. Also, the auto-scrolling functionality offered on the Nerd computers would be a great addition on the next version for Cateye. However, given the poor reviews of accuracy for almost all other brands in the same price range, I'd take a Cateye any day.

Does what it's supposed to do
I'm new to cycling and got this item to re-affirm how slow I was. Well, it does a great job of reminding me how pitiful I really am every time I get on the bike. The bright side is the tool inspires me to work harder. The downside is I wish I would've spent more to get one with a heart monitor and power meter. Fit, finish, functionality are great. It took a little longer than usual (30 min) getting the head unit to pick up on the wheel transponder. The instructions say that both pieces need to be in correct alignment for it to work, so it was my faultly setup that caused the problem. I've never had anything like this before, so I can't compare it with anything. Overall, I am happy with this purchase.

poor design
The computer is great, good functions, but the mounting accessories are horrible. Tie wraps to tie the unit down? Give me a break! Also once the computer is clipped in its holder, it only takes a bump for it to pop out. I rode to work and wend through a pot hole a the computer went off flying. It hit the ground and well a car rolled right over it and it was smashed. No security when you clip it in its holder. BAD DESIGN!
