Just like the Goldback, it can be used as a top-loading handlebar bag or as a traditional-style saddle bag with or without a rack or support. The Piccolo is better suited to rigs with limited clearance between the bars and front/rear tire or for those running narrower bars. The Piccolo Short Flap is a smaller, more svelte version of the popular Bags By Bird (BXB) Goldback. $1,999 / Made in Taiwan / 25.8 pounds (large) / Details

Make sure to check out my full review here. I found it to be aesthetically pleasing, the built kit is dialled, and it has all the specs I look for in a do-mostly-everything bike. While the Doggler might not compete with dedicated mountain or gravel bikes, it does offer a nice middle ground for the performance-minded commuter who finds comfort in wide bars and a fun, upright riding position. I loaded it up during my scouting mission of the new Tree to Sea Loop on Vancouver Island this fall, and I’m sure it will naturally take on the roll of winter commuter rig as we head into 2022. It packs a lot of punch for $2,000 USD and has quickly become my go-to bike for zipping around town, linking together gravel paths and the occasional trail with ease. Each model has the same aluminum frame and full-carbon fork, a 1×12 drivetrain, hydraulic brakes, and a dropper post. The Doggler is a modern, category-bending rigid bike that’s offered in three different builds: city, gravel, and mountain. Released in September of last year, I jumped on the opportunity to test out the Hudski Doggler, which led to me purchasing it for myself a few months later. Find a dozen items that have stood out for me in 2021 below. Several of the items in this list were either used during or inspired by that trip, and all have earned an enthusiastic “thumbs up” from yours truly. I’m perhaps most proud of the Tree to Sea Loop-a 1,000-kilometre gravel loop around the lesser-known areas on the north end of Vancouver Island. With that said, I’ve still managed to pack in a handful of local overnighters and route scouting missions here on the coast, four of which are now published as route guides. I’ve started riding with flat pedals more often, challenging myself on steeper trails that fall outside of normal bikepacking terrain, and most importantly, riding with the new friends I’ve made here in Powell River quite regularly. While I love the freedom and challenge of long-distance rides, keeping local has encouraged me to hone my technical mountain biking skills instead. Although I spent most of 2021 around my new home in Powell River, British Columbia, I was fortunate enough to spend a great deal of time on my bike.
