Since spring is here or almost here, I thought it would be a good idea to share what cycling related clothing, shoes, lights, saddles, etc that have enhanced your cycling experience and have been well worth the $$, and then there are those items that look great, cost a lot, but don't quite function as advertised.

I'll start.
For me, hands down best purchase has been any of the PI amfib line. I have the lobster gloves awesome for cold weather riding. PI amfib drop tail bibs well worth the money, great for cold/raining weather kept me warm and dry all winter. PI amfib shoes covers kept the toes nice and warm/dry. The one thing I have purchased for the bike that I didn't think was worth the money was a camelback podium water bottle (LBS price $18 +tax), its ok to use in cooler weather but useless in the summer. In the summer I usually fill mine with ice then add a bit of water but after an hour or so out on the bike you end up drinking warmish water (yuck!)I need to find a water bottle that fits in the water bottle cage, is insulated, and holds at least 16 oz H2O.

Looking for good summer bibs, any suggestions?
