Just 2. Ride the DJ on the flow trails ! I did it. It's fun. Just getting back to the top is a bit tougher.

If we do Columbia Trail we could hit the pump track and flow trails after 😉

Sussex Branch, Paulinskill, maybe Columbia Trail, open to anything really.

Have weekend plans with the wife, so I can't make this one. But my weekends have opened up again, so I'm up for getting out with you guys soon. Leo, maybe we sneak in a rail trail ride soon just to get the legs spinning a bit.

That's probably the best option if you can find, or make, a shim that takes up the slack.

There's tubes in your frame with thinner wall thickness in places once your done sanding.

Nope. Just turned it as I went. Bought a cheap used one so if it didn't work I wasn't out much cash.

I have sanded a 27.2 dropper down to 26.8 for my vintage Iron Horse with a mini belt sander.

Should'a put a roll bar in 'er ! Then you could mount your bike rack to that !

Currently have that drivetrain on my Mukluk and totally agree. It's been on there a few years now, and has been super reliable and sees the worse conditions of any bike I own.

Responded to your PM from the other day 🙂

Dont believe the hype.Take an old 26er MTB of any brand ( preferably steel ). Find a used 29er wheel set with the appropriate hub spacing. Slap some CX tires on them. Get a cheap ass rigid fork for it. Find a cheap short stem, and set of gravel/adventure drop bars. There are plenty of options...

One of the most fun rides I've had in the past few years was with @Paul H at Stewart, him on his WallyWord Schwinn, and me on my SS vintage Iron horse I picked out of the condo's dumpster. You don't need new flashy shit, ( or an e-bike) to have fun out there. Just good friends, good trails, and...

Cool idea. Let me know if you need any parts. Got a ton of good, but older, usable parts, that no one seems to want anyway.

Might be able to do this. Probably in about the same shape as Walt though.

Hmmm....can't really argue with that...🤣

Cheap could be debated for sure. Lack of electrical BS needed.....no debate at all. But quite honestly, neither of my very capable equines cost more than an equally capable ebike. They also last longer, go faster, and have fewer trail limitations as they are not motorized vehicles.

Add into this ebikes. You need a course in electronics if you want to repair the motor, or wiring or control panel issues that arise. Add crap like AXS into the mix, and bikes have become ( like everything else ) more of an electronic appliance than a mechanical conveyance. And like most...

Yup. All the industry guys are saying this. Mostly because the industry wants you to buy an ebike.

Let me know when you're ready to ride it.
