Today we received a new mountain bicycle and we decided to make a quick video tour and share first impressions with the Sprint Wood 2 Mountain.

This is actually one of the cheapest bikes to buy brand new in 2020 that has front and rear Shimano Deore derailleurs.

Here are couple more images of the unobxing process:

As you can see it is a pretty good package that this mountain bike offers. Probably the only thing I wish it had is a double-butted lightweight aluminium frame.

And here is a quick video tour of the Shimano Deore bike - Wood 2 Mountain unboxing:

And just to remind you, this bike is very similar to the Sprint Apolon Pro 26 mountain bike that we reviewed sometime ago, even though some of the components are different (including the 27.5 frame vs 26 in the Apolon) and the Wood 2 is bit more expensive.

Price

We bought this Shimano Deore bike for $500 (April 2020).


Thanks for stopping by and checking our first consumer Sprint Wood 2 Mountain bike review. Stay tuned for our long term feedback after couple of months riding it.

Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A Full HD LED TV review

Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A Full HD LED TV price, specs and review Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A  Full HD LED TV Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A review - today at our consumer blog we are going to take a look at one of the latest 42-inch Sony Full HD TVs which offers great picture quality and will suit best everyone who needs an excellent home cinema experience without 3D effects. Sony Bravia KDL-42W650 is still not very popular around the world and the reason for that is not the lack of quality or functions which this TV is fully packed with but because of the fact that the  KDL-42W650/ KDL-42W650A is mostly going to be sold in Eastern Europe and some parts of Asia. Of course you can find this TV in other countries as well but it is still not presented in huge markets like UK and USA.

Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 3 vs. Gen 2: The Key Upgrades Review

Why the ThinkPad E16 Gen 3 Is Worth the Upgrade The Lenovo ThinkPad E16 series is designed to be the "budget titan" of the business laptop world, offering the classic ThinkPad durability without the premium price tag. In this review, we compare the latest Gen 3 model against its predecessor, the Gen 2, to see if the upgrades justify the jump. While both are solid, the Gen 3 delivers crucial quality-of-life fixes that make it the far superior option.

Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 3 First Look Review: Did They Fix the Flaws?

Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 3: Flaw Fixed, Efficiency Gained Hey everyone, and welcome back! I was excited to finally get my hands on the third generation of the Lenovo ThinkPad E16 . As many of you know, I spent a good amount of time with the Gen 2, and while it was a solid business machine, there were definitely a few things that needed attention. This is my very first look at the Gen 3, and I wanted to share my initial feedback on what’s improved and what hasn’t. The E16 Gen 3 I’m reviewing here is equipped with the Intel Core Ultra 5 processor, shared Intel graphics, and 32GB of RAM.
