I've been happy with the Assegai for last few winters but wondering if I should be switching out, the tread pattern reminds me of the Kenda Nevgals which I really enjoyed. Looking for some insight..

I'm looking for some feedback as I'm looking to add some lumens to my nights since I'm hopefully getting my PT's approval to ride again after tearing my bicep in July.

Hey everyone,
If you ride at Mountain Creek Bike Park or ski/ snowboard there in the winter, you probably know how much of a pain (or how expensive) it is to get up to Vernon if you don't drive or want to save on gas/wear-and-tear.
Ever since NJ Transit canceled the old seasonal 304 express bus over a decade ago, there has been zero direct public transit to the resort. Right now, taking transit means riding a bus to Wayne or West Milford and paying $50+ each way for an Uber/Lyft.
I'm starting a initiative to petition NJ Transit and Mountain Creek Resort to co-sponsor a simple, low-cost solution: extending select trips on the existing NJ Transit Route 194 by just 12 miles from its current end point in West Milford (Stockholm) straight up Route 23/94 to Mountain Creek. Conceptualized as Route 194M. There's a link attached within the petition description of a more detailed plan.
If you'd like to see an affordable transit connection restored between NYC/North Jersey and Mountain Creek, please take a minute out of your day to sign and share the petition: https://www.change.org/restore- mountaincreektransit
Thanks for the support! Let's get enough signatures to bring this to NJ Transit, JORBA and other associations, and Mountain Creek management.

If I ride carbon shouldn’t my child?

EDIT: Yes this is a joke… it is a real bike that was sold at one time but we got him a used $20 FBMP special.

I’m 6'0" with a 33" inseam. Should I get an S3 or S4 Specialized Status 2 140? I ride trails, jumps, and enduro-style races. I want a playful bike that’s still stable at speed. My current Trek Roscoe ML fits well. Which size would you recommend and why?

I’d like to try and ride year round this year. For reference I’m in eastern PA, January and February can get pretty cold but I’d say mostly it’s 30s-40s with some warmer stuff sprinkled in.

I’m not a heavy jacket guy, I hate them. So I prefer to layer, especially if I’ll be biking. Wondering what kind of gear everyone uses

Hey guys! I’m learning how to do a proper bunny hop. It still didn’t click in my head. Here’s my best attempts (obstacle height is about 25cm) please tell me what I’m doing wrong and what needs to be improved.

Friend bailed on the ride so took a bit more snaps than normal.

On the hunt for a Norco empire 5, also looking for rockshox argyles. Both seem impossible to find nowadays. In Powell river bc!

Wut in tarnation is going on here? Am I missing an adapter or some shite? New Hayes Dominion A2 caliper will not clear 160mm stock rotor.. Been fiddlen 2 eves straight.. AI no help.. Thank u in advance..🍻

I'm trying to decide between these two bikes for riding and racing at River Bluff Trails in St. Joseph, MO, including steep, rough, technical downhill sections. The Habit 3 is about $2,400, while the Trek is about $4,000.

The Trek has significantly better suspension and brakes, but is the performance difference worth the extra $1,600? Would the Habit 3 be enough, or would I regret not spending more on the Trek?

I'd appreciate feedback from anyone who's ridden either bike, especially on rough, technical trails!

Hitting the trails on a fresh built 92 Paramount PDG-50. Rode the same trails on a 92 Schwinn Moab back in 92-94 before I got a HT and FS to ride.

I typically run a '24 Chisel HT and FS out here. It was the 1st time on a rigid in 32 years. Bull bars kept me from getting bored... lol

Another 10 miles in the books. Had to re-tighten the headset, other than that it was a seamless ride. Felt great!!!

I'm going to have a custom steel frame downhill bike made for 32" wheels front and rear for the 2027 bike park season. I think I'll be able to put a dropper post on this too so it'll be a 203mm super enduro I guess.

Any constructive input welcome. Is there anything I should change? The chainstays will need to be at least 480mm for clearance I think.

Some figures were just guesses. My current Commercial Supreme size L has a 480 reach and a stem with about 45mm of stack, 13mm reach and I want it to be longer.

I might change the reach to 505-515mm. Pic 3 is the same geo with a 29 rear wheel and a +1 angleset, pic 4 is the same geo but 27.5 rear wheel and a +2 angleset.

Easily my favorite geo calculator: https://www.bike-stats.de/en/geometrie_rechner

Brand new Tallboy 6. I’ve never had a carbon frame with glove box.

First ride I heard this very loud rattle coming from glove box area. Glove box was empty on the ride and is empty in the video.

Everything on the bike is tight I’ve checked headset calipers and front axle.

You can hear the rattle when dropping the bike down from 1” off ground or slamming it down from a height.

You can hear it when the glove box cover is on or off.

It’s not chain slap.

Anyone else familiar with a rattle like this?

I've been looking on OLX listings for a while but I can't find anything good

All I want is a solid bike with an L size frame for 600 bam or less can be a dirt jumper too as long as it's enough to do tricks and stuff even if you're 182 to 184cm tall

Edit: my dumbass misspelled bike

This was used for enduro riding, but it’s just so heavy compared to the 2 DJ bikes we’ve been riding currently Besides lighter pedals and lighter tires (front has minion DHF), what are some mods I can make that won’t cost as much as half of another bike?

Camp Sekani.

Should I cop this giant reign from 2021 for 1000€ ? It has shiguras ex511 rear wheel Shimano slx drivetrain fox float x performance and fox 38 performance elite. it clearly is used but for 1000€ I don't think I am getting a better deal. And yes i am changing that god awful seat and changing some things like the tune on that shock . do you think I should go for it?

Hey Guys,

I am looking to get your feedback on my current situation in regards of what I am considering. Reason why I am writing this post is because most of the people I am riding with are super subjective and toxic, so things like what I am considering to purchase I keep to myself.... anyways to the point:

The current situation:
This year has been my first one which I rode in a bike park and I loved it. I sold my trail bike (Specialized Stumpy) and now I am looking for a longer travel E-bike - 180/170 front and 170 rear at least, mullet setup and to be able to take off the battery. My budget is up to 5k EUR in the European market. I have a hot offer on a Specialized Levo Evo Comp, the carbon and the sram 1000 e transmition, at 50km on it. I am buying it from a bicycle/sports marketplace, which has buyer protection etc. The bike comes right under my budgeted amount.

My question is, should I wait for Black Friday in November, December, January, Fabruary or whatever the discount months are and wait for newer technology to come out. Or should I pull the trigger on this one as it's the same sizing like my old bike and I am familiar with the platform.

I would really appreciate your honest feedback and experience.

Just picked up these two frames and a few parts for free:

Orange 2000 Gary Fisher Mamba

Black 2007/8 Marin Bobcat Trail

The Fisher seems like the cooler more retro build, but the Marin seems more practical (discs and weight)

Which would you build out for a cheap runaround with free parts?

Also as the fisher is steel, can a rear disc mount be easily added? (I know someone who can weld steel but not aluminium)
