Like Diamondback Haanjo 4 Gravel Bike ReviewJanuary 26, 2021 at 9:39 AM 2020 was the year of many things, many of which don’t bear thinking about. But in our world of outdoor recreation, it was one thing above all else: the year of the bike. Shops big and small all over the country were totally sold out of their inventory as people got outside on two wheels. It was amazing, but it also got really hard to get a bike.
