  • Mike, take the wheels to your local shop and have them trued, and the spoke tension taken up a notch. You will thank me later. It shouldn't cost much

    Thanks for the help. I will get them done. I will be out as soon as it shows up. I don't think it'll make it for the weekend, but for the 4th for sure. I have a trip up to PA the following week, hope to ride some good trails up there if I can find the time.

    • the frame is the least important thing on a hard tail bike. as long as you have a good fork, brakes and components you will be happy. A good fit is nice too. make sure you are setup correctly. If you are not sure, pay the money to have a shop do a quick fit.

        Well, duh, might as well ask why is a tree good? Why is the sunset good? Why are boobs good?

                        Then know your role. Mountain bikes only, keep the spandex on the street.

                          Will do. I will leave the dirt to the guys too afraid to go fast.

                          • Just got back from a trip to western PA. I rode a trail in Apollo while I was there called Roaring Run. It was pretty fun. A lot of rocks/boulders/hills. I did some walking haha It was fun to ride something a little different though.

                              That's a good idea!

                                I usually try and stay in larger groups to hopefully help the visibility of the riders. That is always in the back of my mind though. Someone texting or dicking around on their phone and not paying attention.

                                FYI, doing a lap at NS tonight at 5:45 if your interested.
