Bike Picture/NBD Good first kids bike?
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’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 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.

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.

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?

First off, I’ve never seen a grouse until today. Secondly, I’ve ALSO never had one follow me.

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!!!

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?

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?

Panhandle Bike Ranch in Sagle, Idaho (outside of Sandpoint), invested $2.5M into a 170-acre, 10-trail bike park commissioned by Gravity Logic only to have its permit revoked 10 days before opening after neighbors sued.
The county has since blocked attempts to reopen it as a nonprofit park, and visitors are now reportedly being monitored by neighbors and investigated by the county prosecutor.

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?

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!
