Craft Strom Tights/Pants........... Topeak Digital Air Gauge D2

When I 1st started biking during the winter i was always here ICEBIKE looking for ideas and just seeing what others were doing.
When I saw these I knew I had to have them. Don't ask me why?!! Lol
Don't get me wrong they worked great to about -10 to -15, after that I needed my wool bibs I used to wear for deer hunting.

Well it was time to step up and get a pair of pants that really could handle some cold without the bulk of my tried and true woolrich bibs. I was cruising the "Fat Bike" forum on mtbr.com when I came across a thread about these I was sold!! They truly fit more like a pant than tights, and they can handle the cold!! Last Monday -27 just the pants were worn and I was toasty warm, the follow day -33 with the wind..... same thing, just nice and comfortable with these pants alone.

The Topeak digital gauge is a nice little unit. It works awesome!!!
I was worried about how it would perform in cold temps. Lol needless time spent worrying. It has a switch to go from presta to schrader, a air bleeder button, a swiveling head.... a nice feature for sure!! I couldn't tell tell how much it cost, Cindi got it from the Bikes on Howard.
