Originally posted by SteveDeBeave I take care of 5 bikes in my family. Lots to do! Putting new Velociraptors and a new XTR chain on my Sugar, truing wheels. Got a new Shimano splined crank and bottom bracket for my son's Joshua. Going from SPD's to Time. He's got Panaracer Fire XC's also. Sigma Targa computer for my wifes Sugar. Repack the hubs and true the wheels on both my daughters bikes. May even get a new front shock for the oldest's HookeKoo. The boy and I kept running out of water on some of the long rides so we wen't to the 100oz Mule water sacks. These are real cool bags! Ride On!

I am no MTB expert myself. This is really my first true full season of riding. I started riding three years ago, but my rides were limited in number, and I used a borrowed bike that was several sizes too small.

Originally posted by dg806 OK....Since spring has arrived(for most of us anyway...DERO), Some people are getting ready to buy new bikes. IAB is, if he can decide what he wants! He's even got me wanting another one! So who else is getting a bike and what kind?? |
I'm still keeping the Rocky Mountain tho'. It'll give me something to practice mechanics on.
|
Originally posted by dg806 I like the quasi-moto, but I still like the bullet! What is the price difference in the two?? |

Originally posted by Tboy Yup! It's a Kona Stuff in stinky green. I got it in a small (14.5") strickly for urban stuff. A ridding buddy of mine has a shop that carries them Cannucksville creations. I also have a suger 2. Once I wear that one out I'm thinking Mano Mano or Superlight. The bar ends and bars are long gone as in the pic, went to a carbon riser. |

Originally posted by I Are Baboon I had some decent riding this weekend, but not as much as I would have liked (too many other things going on). The weather was PERFECT....sunny and around 80 degrees. I had one pretty fun crash....I decided to try a new steep, rock-face downhill. It was not very long, but kinda steep. I didn't realize all the leaves and dirt on the rock were wet, so I locked up my brakes and slid all the way down the trail at a pretty good speed and with no control. I hit a tree and got thrown from the bike onto a soft pile of sticks and leaves. It was pretty cool.

Originally posted by Dero SOOOOOOOOEAT!!!! Like we say,if you don't crash,YOU'RE NOT RIDING!!!!!!! |

Originally posted by Max. Q I have a 96' Specialized Ground Control A1. It's mostly used for cruising and light trail rides. I'd like to upgrade the rear shock, but for anyone who knows this bike it's not your usual bolt-on for the bottom half of the shock. Does anyone know a solution for this? |
|
Originally posted by MtnBikerChk Specialized's website has a great support section. You can ask questions (but I'll admit it does take some time for them to get back to you). There's a good chance your question is out there already. |
