About goodgearhub | The Riders Hub for Gear, Routes, Stays, Rentals & Experiences

our mission

we built goodgearhub because most advice failed us when it mattered most. our promise is simple: truth over hype. real, rider-tested insights you can trust — from motorcycle gear reviews and blogs to routes, stays, and experiences.

the questions every rider asks

• which gear should i buy?
• where should i buy from?
• where do i ride to?
• where do i stay?
• what else can i do when i get there?

we asked these same questions. early answers were fleeting. so we started writing, testing, and riding — and the idea became a home: goodgearhub — the riders hub.

how we test

our process is brutal because the road is brutal. we ride through desert heat, mountain cold, and monsoon rain. if a zipper jams, we note it. if gloves split, we record it. if boots leak, they’re out. recommendations are earned, never bought.

core values

• truth over hype: our reviews are brutally honest — no paid lists, no brand bias.
• rider first: safety and comfort drive every recommendation.
• experience rules: we only recommend what we’ve ridden, crashed, and trusted.

meet the riders

ashish bahl (linkedin ›) — @crankthebahl
with over 1 million kilometers on two wheels, ashish is the soul behind goodgearhub. a strategist turned long-haul rider, he brings blunt honesty and decades of brand experience to gear testing. from himalayan dirt to swiss asphalt, he’s ridden it all — and broken enough gear to know what lasts.

sumit berry (linkedin ›) — @berry.mister
also crossing the million-kilometer mark, sumit brings precision, testing discipline, and operational rigor to every review. equal parts nerd and nomad, he reads ce tags like manuals and pushes products to failure before they make any list. if a product makes it to our top picks, it’s because sumit already tried to break it.

why goodgearhub

we exist to help riders choose gear that works — for your ride, your conditions, and your budget. no fluff. just miles, data, and honest answers. one review, one ride, one honest verdict at a time.
