Had mine since 2007, but +1 on the Tubus Cosmo rack.

New things I tried and liked this year? Hmmm...

• Continental Grand-Prix 4-Season tires. Liked them so much in 28mm on the commuter, I replaced the 25mm ones on all my bikes with them.
• Ortlieb Sport Packer Plus panniers
• Arkel "The Shopper" grocery panniers
• Selle Italia SLK Gel Flow saddle
• MagicShine head and taillights, (despite the recall on the battery)
• DiNotte 300R taillight
• Endura Thermolite bib tights--great for 'tween seasons. Not sweaty in the 50s, yet still warm in the upper 20s.
• Endura FS260 Arm and Kneewarmers. Warm, stay up, and lotsa reflective bits.
• Steel. Bought a secondhand Reynolds 853 frame.
• Titanium. Bought a secondhand Litespeed.
• Pitlocks

Things I didn't care for:

• Endura Stealth Lite bib tights. Billed as waterproof, not even water resistant. Includes the replacement pair sent under warranty.

Huh. Can't think of anything else.
