    24" fork

    FYI, I used an older short travel 26" fork for my daughters 24" bike and it worked out awesome. I'm sure it slackened it out a bit, but worked great. I found it way easier to source a decent 26" fork as opposed to looking for something decent intended for 24" wheels.

    Thanks. I agree but am definitely biased :)

    H2H. Jungle Roll call and recaps

    Sadly, I am very much in agreement. Perhaps it is because I've not done one of these before and don't know what's typical, but to me it seems like there are way less confusing ways to handle the signs for this two separate lap situation. I also thought the placement of some of the signs was...

    H2H. Jungle Roll call and recaps

    Thanks All. Not overly concerned for myself, I am NOT likely to be competitive. Racing for fun since I will be there anyway. Mostly anticipating these questions from my daughter who takes racing a lot more seriously. It really wouldn't be so bad if I do two short loops by mistake :cool:

    H2H. Jungle Roll call and recaps

    Thanks, but I dont know these trails. But how do they mark those spots so you dont inadvertently go the wrong way. I mean sometimes when its just one loop and there are no “choices” its easy to go off course (hello Mayhem 🤣). It seems daunting to have to deal with multiple options under race...

    High Bridge Pump Track Conditions

    Lots of work happening over there. Pics on Instagram posts. Hints at potentially opening things up next weekend, weather dependent. I took a peek yesterday and Jim was in a machine putting on what looked to be final touches on the pump track facelift. So appreciative of all the work he has...

    H2H. Jungle Roll call and recaps

    We just registered in cat2...My daughter and I. Question for those who've done this before, it says we do one short and one long loop, but how well are they marked? I assume there is at least one "fork in the road" so to speak where you could both the loop. Seems a bit strange to me to do it...

    Poll does everyone here own earbuda?

    I own one earbud, the left one. My oldest daughter lost one of hers so she needed a new set. I took the old set with one missing, so I rock left ear only at the gym so I can hear my surroundings, just not by choice. Now her newer set has been missing for a week. Hoping it's in the house...

    Mayhem 2024 Roll Call And Recaps!

    Yeah, I cant believe we didnt see you as well, but I was pretty out of sorts when I finished tbh. Seems like you had a much better race than I did 🙂

    Mayhem 2024 Roll Call And Recaps!

    Here's My Recap. My fat bike wave started 2 min before my daughters. I asked the starter to delay them more, but I don't think he listened. I was off to a good start, but got caught by the first rider from my daughters groups in about half a lap; towards the start of the single-track section...

    Mayhem 2024 Roll Call And Recaps!

    My daughter and I are in.... She's doing cat2 15-18 and I'm doing the fatbike open. My primary mission is to use the head start I assume I'll get over my daughter to NOT get passed by her. But if I can beat her time I will absolutely throw it in her face! Very nice turnout for her girls...

    Nassau Trail conditions

    Conditions are good to go, I live in town. I did notice the temporarily closed sign was out in the upper lot on Nassau Rd., but kind of figured it was an oversight??

    Recommendations for a new hardtail

    I just picked one of these up (comp version) for my daughter as her XC race bike for this season. It's a great little frame, and the stock spec is "OK". I think it's a solid choice if your focused on XC riding/racing, but if you are looking for a hardtail to be used more as an "all around do...

    Motorcycles.... where do i start?

    I have a versys 650 that also falls in the same camp as the SV650. Great do everything bike, fast enough but not to the point that it's easy to get in trouble etc. The Versys is tall though, and I think that is common in this type of bike, so if your short legged might bit be the best for...

    Latest and greatest sealant?

    For you guys having trouble with plugs...How do they fail? Are they not working when inserted, or failing shortly after installing etc..? Asking because I've always just bought whatever plugs were available/cheap and never really given it much of a thought because they've always worked ok. I...

    Post a picture of your next bike part or mtb gear on order!

    Doing the same for my daughters (new to her) race bike. Using the money I saved buying used to spice it up a bit.

    Colonoscopy, how long after...

    I got my first one last year. I had no polyps removed or anything, but for me I believe I could have gone for a ride same day if I had it done early in the day. No soreness, or weird gas or anything like that afterwards. Somehow I never get as knocked out as I am supposed to with anesthesia...

    Wanted 15mm end caps for 2015-ish era FSA PMA hubs

    Sorry I somehow I missed replying to this. It’s an incredibly nice offer, but it’s probably more work and effort than this is worth and I would feel bad taking you up o it. Maybe the existing end caps could be drilled, and spacers used if/as needed to shim to fit, but not worth the effort and...
