    SixSixOne Evo Body Armor $99. Normally $250. I paid $130 for mine with a $100 off closeout sale on last years small and a $20 off coupon at Xsportsprotective for last years small model and considered that a smoking hot deal.

    Chainlove wants to put you into the best low profile armor that I know of at this price. I was considering a moto-style roost guard once it got hot, but I've been running this. It will be warmer, there's no getting around that, but one crash and you'll likely appreciate it. Accidents typically happen when you don't expect it. Ride smart and stay on the bike and have fun. Maybe try something you wouldn't have before!

    Wow. Those sold much better than I would've imagined. That's probably how much they should be selling for in the first place, to be competitive, considering their performance vs other cameras.

    Seen the DriftHD Stealth + spare battery ($20 value) for 250; the GoPro HD Hero for 220 many many times, sometimes at low as 190; the GoPro 960 for 120 + Tripod adapter just recently.

    I consider the Drift > GoPro HD > Contour HD.

    I was surprised at how well those sold. Get ready for a ton more mediocre bike videos on youtube.
    Looks like Amazon has the Contour for the same price with free shipping.

    I almost bought one, but there doesn't seem to be a convenient way to mount them to your chest. GoPro still seems like the best MTB camera to me. $150 is hard to pass up though.

    A friend of mine has the Contour camera. GoPro seems to have the action sports market covered. However, while to picture quality is on par, I prefer the Contour's lower profile.

    Fox Sergeant Shorts $39.99. I have a pair of these and they are nice. They normally retail for $90. . . Wish I could've got them for this price.

    Didn't see anything other than 11-32 for that cassette on Chainlove. If you want 11-34, $68 is the cheapest I've seen for a '10 version.

    '11 versions sell for more, but, correct me if I'm wrong, it doesn't seem to have any changes between the two models. Maybe more efficient and precise tooling and manufacturing for tighter tolerances and more consistent quality? Seasonal Outfitters seems to be selling the '11 version for about $70.
