About Me
I'm a young rider who want's to know as much as possible about bikes. I love flowy trails and really ding grabbing air.... I'm willing to make the climb for epic descents.. Building and exploring trails is a blast for me. And i'm happiest on my bike or at a bike shop..

Greg i'm with ya there man!! That Alchemy...... drool
Just went 1 by a couple of weeks ago! Don't think i'll be going back!! But ya gotta be able to ride with a higher gear ratio.....!
I am definetly enjoying the Nobby Nic's that came stock on my new bike..... a even burlier tire is the Magic Mary....
@pvtalley I will deff. support Jeff with the Profane...
Some of the new bike racks these days have wires integrated into them to keep your bike safe. It's pretty cool 'cause it gives you the opportunity to use your truck...... but...
If I did downhilling........................................ THAT THING IS SO SICK!!!!!!!!
If you added a link of your bike we could help you a bit more!
Sick!! Digging that thing..... Now riders can have full Cane Creek suspension
Single pivot sure aint dead yet! Loving mine.....
You get MIPS for $100 in the Giro Chronicle.....
@Alvin BTW 96BCD was the WRONG chainring. Only Shimano XT and XTR cranks work with 96bcd, Deore and I imagine SLX use 104bcd..... Just so you know from now on!
Great article Chris, very motivating to do the best I can and ride as much as possible..
The XT chainring was the wrong size for my cranks, 96 XT and my cranks are 104 (bcd) so ended up buying one from the shop... Also installed the dropper, the instructions...
100% aircraft has great ventilation which you might enjoy if you'r are planning on wearing it for regular rides as well. The Fly Werx also get's similar comments.
If you are planning on...
The Fox transfer is external and it is probably much better than the DOSS but I wouldn't know, there are tons and tons of externally routed droppers our there these days....
I started my swap yesterday, got a XT NW to go 1x with. Thing is that my cranks th Deore Hollowtech II require a special tool to take them off. So I...
Yeah that's true...! WIsh there was a way to get the best of both worlds....! :) Would really like a shuttle but at the same time cluttered trails aren't very desirable....

The link didn't work again! I added it and changed the name to "bike" but it didn't make it a link.... weird not really sure what's up with that.....
What do I do.....?! Can't get my cranks off my bike. It's this bike and with those cranks.... I took out the allen screws but It wasn't coming off. Went to the shop...
@Maxwell actually @triton189 was talking about a wheelset, Sunringles..... do you find them do be good quality with an affordable price??
@Maxwell, couldn't agree with you more! This is completely uncalled for! Horrible to think that other people out there are hoping that you get hurt when you ride!!! Terrible...!
Yep I use a pack, so easy to access my hydration! I have water (obviously), Gatorade gel's, Protein bars, and phone....
would be cool to be part of their race team, “ghost riders”
hahahahahaha :P :D
You can always buy a dropper yourself... this will allow you to get the one you want.......
Well, I decided to go with the Fuji Reveal 1.1 a 27.5 trail bike.... loving super stoked and doing some things to help make it the ultimate bike for me... getting a...
Cool!! I'm sure you'll be stoked and love your new steed.....! Happy trails! :D
@mlombar17 sweet stuff! can't wait 'til I become 1X!! :D
@musikron if an e-bike get's you out on the trails keeping you happy and keeping you biking... then you are fully justified in using one. ;) Just like all the other injured...
Hey! Just doing a couple of upgrades to my drivetrain, and wanted some help as to how I remove my chain... I read this article and I gleaned that all I had to do...
@mlombar17 Yup pretty much.... my friends had the Talon but he hasn't upgraded yet.... Also Giant's bike come stock with horribly narrow bars, that are super freaky!!!! Do you find that...
yeah sorry I forgot to mention the chain has a master link, That's a nifty little tool there! But I already have tire levers.. so I think I'll just use some pliers......
Sweet stuff huh? Really stoked about this park! Looking forward to hitting the line's once it opens...
If your considering full suspension i would go for the Stance that @Alvin was talking about, you just will have a much better time on a full suspension I can guarantee! It...
Hmmm @Pseudomugil I have the Sektor on my full sus and it isn't too bad actually! Wonder why you think it isn't that good........?? I guess it isn't as "high tech" as other...
Thanks @Endopro for starting this thread!
Ummm I've had troubles with that as well @ken I will type something hit submit and it doesn't fully process it, so I do it again and it works.... :( ...
I ordered a dropper today! And got a NW chainring, hoping to go 1x....
I don't have to get a new chain do I?? Can't I just take a few links out of the one I have?
Ohh great!!! That saves me a lot of pain in the neck. :)
