Gear I Actually Ride With
Every bike, tool, and piece of kit on this page has earned its spot.
Almost everything below ships through Backcountry; they support Super Rider, and using these links to order sends them a signal that they're doing the right thing. If you're already planning to buy any of this, doing it through the links here is one of the simplest ways to support the channel directly (plus their Summit Club Plus membership gives you 10% cash back on top of it).

What's In My Pack
What's actually in my pack, ride to ride.
Camelbak MULE
My actual hydration pack, ride after ride. Nothing fancy, just does the job every time.
Via Backcountry
Skratch Chews
My go-to trailside snack when I need real fuel; my favorite flavors are Matcha Lemon and Grape!
Via Backcountry
Fanttik X11 Ace
Digital pressure gauge, sets your PSI and stops automatically. I haven't touched a hand pump since.

Backcountry Gloves
The pair I reach for on every ride. Simple, comfortable, and they last.
Via Backcountry
Smith Wildcat Sunglasses
I typically ride with Chromapop Brown lenses (or clear), and I use their ODS5 prescription inserts with these glasses sometimes, too.

Formula 100 All Conditions Lube
Keep your bike rolling smooth - this stuff works incredibly well, and if you're on an eMTB, check out their High Torque lube.

Skratch Electrolyte Mix
Always in the bottle on long rides!

The Upgrades I Put On Every Bike I Own
I swear by these parts — this is the standard build across pretty much everything in my garage.
SRAM Maven Brakes
I've used every disc brake out there, and this is my favorite. Super powerful (and easy to maintain)!
Via Backcountry
Schwalbe Albert Trail Tires
My go-to tire for grip and control, no matter what bike they're on. The radial tires are all-time!
Via Backcountry
Deity TMAC Pedals
Don't just take my word for it, almost everyone I ride with uses these same pedals.
Via Backcountry
Deity Supracush Grips
The most comfortable grips I've found - contact points like grips and pedals can completely change the feel of your bike. This is an easy, but important, adjustment!
Via Backcountry
Chris King Wheels
These hubs get faster the more you ride them (and they make a really cool sound when you roll fast).
Via Backcountry
Riding Kit
My three rules: nothing more expensive than a handlebar, no more all-black, and it has to feel like it's not there.
Backcountry Slickrock Pants
Light, breathable, comes in multiple colors — exactly what I look for in a riding kit (they make both pants and shorts).
Via Backcountry
Backcountry Slickrock Shirt
Pairs with the pants, and it's what's on my back most rides this season. The side pockets are underrated!
Via Backcountry
Smith Forefront 3 Helmet
My go-to helmet, if you pair this with Smith sunglasses (like the Wildcat or Split Shift Mag), you'll never have to worry about them fogging up, because they're built to work together.
Via Backcountry
Crank Bros Stamp BOA Shoes
Dialed in with a twist, not a strap. I've been running the same pair for two seasons and they are still going strong.
Via Backcountry
Bike Care
I've been working with Formula 100 since they launched, and for good reason. This stuff is the real deal. Oh, and their parent company makes this kind of stuff for actual spaceships.
Formula 100 Fast Wax
All the benefits of a proper wax chain, without having to melt a big chunk of wax in a crockpot. My pick for dry, dusty riding.
Via Formula 100
Formula 100 Degreaser + Bike Wash
This bottle disappears at every group ride, and reappears in my friends garages. Super simple, you just spray it, wait for a few minutes, then spray it off. Your bike looks like new, no need for scrubbing or anything else.

Cameras
How every video on this channel actually gets filmed.
Insta360 X6
Never miss a shot — capture the whole ride and pick your angle after the ride.
Code: SUPERRIDER
Insta360 GO Ultra
Small enough to forget it's on my helmet, and light enough that my kids can ride with it!
Code: SUPERRIDER
Garage & Storage
My three rules for gear storage: Free up your floorspace, make it modular, separate hot and cold storage. Here's what actually built that.
Kitworks GearTote
My grab-and-go storage, I can be out the door and on a ride in seconds instead of minutes.
Via Kitworks
Levrack Mobile Workstation & 883
The centerpiece of my whole garage build. My jaw hit the floor the first time I saw this stuff.
Via Levrack
Stashed Spacerail
Got every bike off the floor and onto the ceiling. The single biggest space-saver in the build.
