mtbr.com seems to link to roadbikereview.com. From a consumer's point of view, they are both effectively spam. It's organized terribly, there's no content (photos, specs or reviews) for most of what is listed. And it looks like crap. I guess they "exist" for some definition of exist. Is there actual content on these sites that I can't find?

There is a reviews section on both sites that have pretty decent contributors. I've looked up many a component/bike there to get a good idea on what's worth it and what isn't. Some items even have photos, and some people have posted how much they paid and where they bought it from. I wouldn't count them out as "spam". There's useful information buried under a site from the 90s.

Did you mean something like this for bikes? http://snapsort.com/
