    Upgraditis has set in-Specialized Diverge

    So I picked up a used Diverge to try out this crazy new "gravel" fad that all the cool kids are doing and I really enjoyed riding it. Plan A was to ditch the (base Claris) Diverge and try to find a higher spec version until a buddy offered me some tasty drivetrain upgrades. Let the games begin...

    2016 Intense Tracer 275C L $1000.00

    Adding to the growing number of well priced offerings… 160mm Pike, just did seals and fluid. No marks on uppers. Shock could probably use a can service. Have the stock smaller can if you wanna use the bottle cage. Stan’s flows with XD hub. Fresh minion DHF DHR. XT (two piston) brakes with...

    Drop bars-what do I want?

    For as much as I tinker with the MTB's, I'm a relative noob with the road stuff. I just get on and pedal. Might be the Defy was pretty sorted stock? Anyway, the Caad came with the stock round tube drop bars but I had some sort of FSA flat top on the Defy. So, if I wanted something more comfy or...

    2011 Giant Defy 1 M/L (kinda a 56) $500.00?

    Very good to near mint condition. 105 10 speed. Aluminum frame, carbon fork and seat tube. I probably replaced the chain somewhere along the line, upgraded the bars and maybe put a tube in it. Have the original wheels if you want. Always kept indoors and except for maybe getting caught in the...

    Shimano brake adaptor?

    Looking for a sm-ma-f203p/pm Readily available on the webs for cheap however I have a small pile of brake adaptors that are doing nothing and hate to waste. If you have one sitting in a drawer let me know.

    Trip ideas for long weekend in November? (non-bike related)

    Looking for ideas, we've done many of the popular spots 2-4 hours away. We almost booked a Cape Cod spot but it's close to six hours which is starting to push it for a weekend trip. More of a downtown/food/sightsee thing than action stuff. Been to the following a few times: NYC (duh) Newport...

    New bike shopping-anybody own a YT?

    Anybody own a newer Izzo or Jeffsy? Both on sale, good enough spec for me, but the Jeffsy might be too much bike while the Izzo maybe not enough. I missed out on some of the good Specialized sales but the Stumpy Alloy Comp is discounted and a fair enough spec. Anybody? Tanks.

    Shimano cranks or 170 left arm

    I managed to kill a shimano crank after a violent rock strike. Anybody have something lying around? Current model is 11 speed FCM8000, I’d prefer 170mm then I can just swap the arm. TIA!

    Wanted: 50cm or so road bike

    My sister wants to get back into shape and is looking for a drop bar road (or gravel/CX) bike. She's 5'2" so somewhere around 50cm/XS should be good. Couple folks here have offered stuff for her to try out which is appreciated but she hopes to continue riding and own something. Something that...

    2020 Giant Fathom ****SOLD****

    Thinking about selling. Bought it minty, there are now some wildcat induced crank arm digs and such. I think there’s one scratch on the rear triangle. Upgraded shifter and grips otherwise as bought. Really capable bike, I’ve ridden it anywhere and everywhere but my wife is rad and got me a new...

    SRAM travel adjust 10mm spacers

    part number is 11.4018.034.000 Looking at a used Rockshox 35 gold and they use the same internal spacers as the recon/Judy/Sektor to set travel. If somebody has any they don't need it saves me a few bucks. Cheers!

    Longboard surfboard?

    Figured what the heck, see if anyone has something hanging around they don't use. Looking for something glass/epoxy (not foamy) in the +/- 9 foot range. Big Sean will be horrified that I'm being this cavalier about my choices. Willing to spend a few bucks for something nicer. Thanks!

    Chain “skipping” issue. Tried almost everything. Help?

    Bike is a 2016 Intense Tracer non-boost. 11 speed, 10-42 cassette, was XTR derailleur just changed to SLX, thought that was the issue. Important: problem began randomly, not after any upgrade, service or crash. Was fine going up hally toe, came down, problem started the next climb. Figured I...

    Anybody try Box components?

    I killed another derailleur and thought maybe try something different. Looking at the Box 3 prime, not sure on 46 or 50. Kinda into the 9 speed idea as my 12 speed bike is a lot of shifting. Anyways, input appreciated!

    Wanted to borrow-long-ish range walkie talkies?

    Cell service is marginal by the enduro run and @UtahJoe and I need reliable comms. It’s maybe within a mile or less? @shrpshtr325 is working on a solution but if anyone (preferably North Jersey) has something good we can borrow it would be appreciated. TIA!

    Troy Lee A1 MIPS M/L Best offer or nevermind

    Clean, lightly used, one nick on the side (not from a crash actually just noticed it) otherwise nice. Even has the bag! I bought it barely used and wore it a season. Nice lid, just doesn’t fit my head perfectly. More round to my oval shape. Think Shoei vs Arai. Edit: realized light mount was...

    Would a GX shifter be a noticeable upgrade over SX?

    I’m more of a Shimano guy so this is enemy territory. Bike came with SX Eagle, after some tuning it shifts fine but has a plasticy feel. GX shifters are cheap but if it’s not noticeable I’ll skip it. $91 for an X01 doesn’t seem worth it unless it slices the bread too. 😜 I have most of a decent...

    Free: old Niterider light kit

    Dunno if any of you nutjobs who are rebuilding old rechargeable packs would be interested, but who knows. I keep the handy storage bag you get the rest. If not, in the bin it goes.
