I recommend …

Gear

Castelli – Ridiculously good cycling shorts and jerseys.
La Sportiva – Outdoor footwear company that made two pairs of boots that I love more than I thought I could love boots.
REI – It’s hard for me to love a large chain so much. Thing is, REI offers great brands and service. Its house-branded products are also excellent.
Santa Cruz Bicycles – Manufacturer of the Superlight, which I consider an outrageous achievement in the field of bicycle value and excellence.
MagicShine Lights – These are the best deal in night light systems for mountain bikes. Fact. And they’re ludicrously easy to use. Great customer service from GeoManGear.com, too.
