hey all, i bought these Wolvhammers back in Nov 2020, and they were everything i hoped for in warmth. However, the single BOA closure turned out to be a liability (as many people on this site and elsewhere on the interwebs have reported) and broke twice on me. I've held onto them as a...

Hey MTBNJ peeps... This 2010 Gibson Les Paul is in superb condition! It's literally never left the house in 11 years! I bought it at the Sam Ash store in Edison, with the hopes of playing more electric guitar, but have found I simply gravitate much more to my Acoustic and my Uke. It is all...

i just put a little bit of our savings into one of these. i don't think many people realize these even exist, but it's a pretty sweet deal 7.12% interest for the next 6 months the rate changes based upon CPI every 6 months. the next rate change is in April you can purchase up to $10K /...

hey all, looking for a spare wheelset (primarily rear wheel) for my 2016 Mukluk. i've got almost 7K miles on my mukluk, so my worst fear is, i get a complete rim / hub failure in the middle of winter and i have no backup plan and the supply chain is still F'ed! i currently have the stock...

hey all...i'm looking to tweak my bike storage system in the garage...i just put up a DIY shelf, and i'm looking to hang a few bikes under it i was thinking of something like this Steadyrack system, which seems to be pretty well reviewed, and pretty nifty (but $$$ at about $80...

hey all...this is from my buddy's 2013 (ish) Mukluk...his rear freewheel is not engaging/not "freewheeling"... he had someone else put in a new freehub body recently, but i think the issue is not with the freehub, but with the actual teeth within the hub shell itself...i think they may be...

hey all, i have a 2012 trek Xcal frameset, that i've recently converted over to a frankengravel bike...i'm still using the original SRAM X5 crankset, through a GXP bottom bracket. the crankset non-drive side bolt keeps coming loose about an hour or so into any hard ride, despite torquing it to...

i did my google best but can't seem to find a simple answer on this... my road bike (yes, i have a road bike too!) has a shimano ultegra rear derailleur, and 10 speed cassette. i've been getting some chain slap recently going over some rough roads, and thinking of upgrading to a clutch...

hey all, My 2019 Pivot Trail 429 (SRAM Eagle XX1 12 sp, 10-50) was shifting beautifully for the last few months...however, recently, it's been slow on outboard shifting...HOWEVER, this only happens when i'm riding it, NOT when it's in the stand. in the stand it shifts buttery smooth, but as...

hey all, posting this for my bro-in-law who lives in Brielle. they are looking to make some room in their garage by selling this sweet bastard. selling for $500, as best we can tell, it retailed for around $1,600 15 years ago. feel free to make an offer and i can put you in touch with my...
