Haven't ridden my geared HT is quite awhile. Earlier this year, installed a new XT 11sp cassette, along with a new RD and cable, on a Hope Pro 4 135QR hub with an HG freehub body. However didn't ride the bike until recently as I've been full-time SS. Noticed some clunking during a ride the...
Sat, 6/28 will be the Hangsterfer's Racing Summer Sizzler, one of the longest running races of the Mid Atlantic Super Series. Typical SJ twisty ST, with a few roots, full gas XC course. As we've done in the past, 100% of the proceeds will go to support the NJ NICA league...
Throwing this out there, as I know many people on here have owned this bike. Potentially cracked the swingarm, but also discovered a lower pivot bolt head broke off.
Anyone have a spare swingarm before I go down the warranty route? Getting the bolt out is another issue.
Thanks,
John

Anyone have a decent condition Surly 21t SS cog they're willing to part with? Can trade or purchase. Quick online search to buy new all show out of stock or on backorder.
Final race of the Mid Atlantic Super Series is this Saturday at the race day only trails of Granogue. If you were there in July, most of the course runs the opposite direction, exception being the technical section of Weymouth Woods and The Gulch. It also happens to be the series awards for...
Installed this brand new on the rear of my Pivot T429 prior to TSE. 5 days of TSE, a ride at Wissahickon on Sat, less than 200 miles and the side knobs look like this.
Tire spec pictured. Pressure was around 21psi.
I was hoping to get a bit more like out of them. Anyone else having Rekons...

While I plan for a mostly Dry January, thought I would put this here for discussion. It has gotten out of hand with strollers and dogs at my local brewery. It was really a problem at the smaller, original location, but now that they've opened up the 2nd larger location, not as bad...
Wife's bike is a Specialized Ruse with 27.5+ (45mm inner width) wheelset and 3.0 tires set up tubeless. She's considering an Xterra and thinking 29 wheel 27.5" wheel with a 2.2-2.4 tire combo will work better.
Anyone have a decent spare set of wheels laying around that is budget friendly...

Garage clutter reduction project has begun. All parts are brand new, were to be used on bikes I no longer own, and unused after sitting in a spare parts bin. Planning to be at Chimney Rock for the Saturday group ride, so can deliver there to avoid shipping. Pickup in 08007 or the...
@Dusty the Whale asked a few days ago about a meetup for the final day of the 31/31 Challenge. @Frank and @krink mentioned they would be there. I've never ridden at Allaire and figured it would be good idea to try someplace new, with other riders who know their way around, and meet some forum...

Looks like Boone is back in the cog business. These have not been available for some time. Have seen on Ebay for as much as $300. I may have to get an 18t or 19t or both.
