bought 2 bikes from the in the past 2 years…solid bikes (Gravity Monster and Motobecane H427)…replaced almost every component to upgrade but i have no complaints about the entry level quality…very true that there is zero customer service
i recommend them to beginners who just need “a bike”…once you become a daily rider you need to go to a local bike shop and get what suits you best from a professional who will be there for you for the life of your bike…my 2 cents
Just to but in..those screen shots are the problem I was having too and the update about 2 weeks ago fixed me..android user..good luck..its my go to app for biking so I feel your pain being locked out
woohoo!!! youre right, its fixed!!! Jeff contacted me and said they were updating and now they did..we’re back in business..ride on!!
thats the exact problem i am having now too..ill keep trying things and hope i can fix it. i will post the fix here if i get it done
thanks for all your opinions, i value the knowledge of the sport on these forums..i bought the bike. should be here in a week
thx..im an old man who still loves to ride, no racing or cross country..i appreciate your reply
i have a H427 from BD. I upgraded some components and the tires but im well over 4000 miles on it and its been great. Highly recommend
thx all..if youre not night riding your missing out on an intense experience

knuckleheads not following the rules of local trails. Bombing through puddles so they can go home muddy and ruining manicured singletracks
and trash in the forest..hate seeing trash, i take it out with me no matter how icky but it frustrates me to see it

i do *need* my bike, its my therapist/gym/friend/escape…good point on the maintenance tho, thx
i bought a Mucky Nutz fender because I thought it looked cool on some guys bike..turns out it works great (and looks cool on MY bike)
glasses..the colder it gets, the more my eyes tear up….and wooden everything is much more slippery when frozen (roots, bridges etc) be alert
nothing…if its too cold, youre not pedaling hard enough…although i only ride on trails so if the snow is too deep i hike instead, so that
yup…ive now got some life long riding pals i met on here, so thanks for the site indeed
I have the H427 from Bikesdirect…i ride 4-5 times a week on it and its been great to me.I have upgraded a few parts but not out of necessity out of “want”. That being said I am becoming a crusader for the support of our local bike stores everywhere. The guy in the store near me has been so great to me I feel guilt pangs every time i go there and his inventory is pound for pound and dollar for dollar as good as the deals at bikedirect

i just bought the dewalt ones myself and will try them next time out…forgot to dd that ive tried to ride with sunglasses and dont like the way the trails look..seemed dangerous so i stopped using them
tell them “put on a lid before you fall and get hurt and 74 lawyers showup and get us all banned from riding here”..its my go to line but you can use it too

road CT all thru the 90’s. I helped cut some of the trails in Tyler Mill in Wallingford. Always loved riding west hartford Res too. Jersey guy now..flat in the south, hills in the north
i love me some Core Creek in Bucks County…not the biggest park but lots of root covered twisty single track to devour

no glove, no love…I always wear mine, and have different pairs for different seasons. My theory is the day i go over the bars, im instinctively going to put my hands out to break the fall and this will save my palms from scrapes etc. Plus, better grip on the handle bars. Plus, they look cool 🙂
