Does anyone have experience with either SCHWALBE Ice Spiker Pro HS 379 Studded or Hans Dampf Snake Skin tires ? Trying to decide what works best on a 29er this time of year on North Jeresy trails.

My 10.5 year old daughter just inherited her brother's old mountain bike. Her entire attitude about riding has changed and begs me to take her every chance she gets. WooHoo! I'm trying to find her quality padded shorts. She's a youth size 14. She's starting to get curves and refuses to wear...

I have an Easton carbon seat post on an aluminum Superfly. The post slips as much as an inch each ride. I'm using the stock collar which is not quick release. I already degreased the seat tube and am pretty sure I am tightening the seat collar too much as it is now. Any advise ? Is Tacx Carbon...

I'm selling a never ridden wheel-set that came off my 2013 Superfly 29er. Make me a reasonable offer. Wheels: Bontrager Race Lite TLR Disc CL 29 -Tubeless Ready, 15mm front hub, 142x12mm rear hub -Cassette: HG81 10...

Mike at Town Cycle built me up a Superfly AL 100 Pro with some custom wheels. It rides like a dream, but a longer stem and some bars with less sweep are in my very near future. Are there any bike skills videos/books that really explain how riding a 29er is different and what to do to...

I'm looking to move up to a 29er FS in the next few months for XC riding. Problem is I'm only 5'6" with an 28 inch inseam. I looked at the specs from Specialized, Turner, Santacruz & Giant but they all have 29 inch standover heights in their smallest frame sizes. I found the Trek Superfly AL...

Anyone have advice on tent camping with a 5 your old girl and 8 year old boy ? It's just for the weekend, but I am committed to making it technology free - no phones for me and the wife and no Nintendos for the kids.

I have a ZTR rim and replaced the blown tire with a Kenda UST. I added 2 cups of Stan's and heard a nice pop when I inflated the tire to 40 pounds. How long do I need to wait before the goo does what it is supposed to and I can ride on wheel ? I put it in the bathtub and saw no bubbles in...

Does anyone have the route from the beginner & kids ride a few weeks ago ?

I've been riding off-road for most of my adult life. I like to consider myself more of a "large and fit" type as opposed to a couch potato. I love my baggies and would do anything to ride on tight singletrack. The ZEN of getting outdoors and in the woods keeps me sane. I've noticed that...

I came by this last night and thought it was harmless enough ... Ask the kind and benevolent folks at Google to add 'bike there' as a choice to Google maps along with 'drive there' and 'take public transportation there.' http://www.petitiononline.com/bikether/petition.html #425

My Fox knee/shin guards are barely hanging in there after about 18 months of use. I'm thinking about the TLD Lopes Signature Knee/Shin Guard despite the $70 price tag. Does anyone have any experience with these ?

What do you folks recommend as far as fall and/or winter Tights. I saw the earlier post about winter gear, but it was mostly about jerseys. I use shorts and leg warmers today, but find that the warmers tend to slip. I am thinking of something heavier - like tights from either Craft or Pearl...

Great site ! I've been riding a hardtail since the late 80s back in the day when neon was all the rage. I thought I would be a hardtail bum forever, but finally gave in and bought a dual suspension this year. Don't know why I waited so long - I feel like a kid again on the trails. I tried...
