In 2021 I spent a ton of money on bikes and biking equipment. With rising bike theft in my area, I meant to document all my bike & bike-related stuff and get it insured - meant being the operative word because I procrastinated and never got it done. A couple of weeks ago a devastating wildfire...

After a few years hiatus I want to get fat again. I'm looking for a frameset, a wheelset, a spindle for a RF or SRAM crankset and a BB for that and the frameset. I have the rest of the parts. I plan to use this bike in the snow mostly (only?). Hopefully, on fresh snow and touring (as in just...

I'm getting a new wheelset done and, looking at different rim brands (and even within a brand), there are several different profiles to pick from. The thing is, I haven't found any info on the manufacturer's site, or elsewhere about the rationale for each design, or what they are good for. Some...

Anyone knows what this is? It looks similar to the Brain rear shock that was on some Specialized bikes years ago. I checked the rear shocks page of Rock Shox and couldn't find anything similar. Asking for a friend. Really :)

Not sure if there's a thread for weird bikes/ bike innovation. I remember reading about about this bike a while ago. Didn't have gears then; now it has. In general, is interesting to me that bikes are using essentially the same transmission method/technology than when they were invented...

My 2017 Niner RKT has a HTA of 70*, with a 120mm Fox fork (71* with a 100mm Fox fork). The trails I want to ride now have longer, more rocky/technical descents that what I was riding before and this geometry is not very confidence inspiring, especially after eating it bad enough that I cracked a...

If this has been discussed before, please point me to that; I couldn't find it. I'm getting ready to start a training program and want to track how I'm doing. In addition to tracking progress with the workouts, I'd like to track weight, fat %, FTP, LT, and possibly sleep hours. Right now I'm...

Happy New Year everyone!!! If there's a thread about this I missed it but I'm sure someone will let me know. Any biking resolutions or goals for 2019? I just want to ride more, but for that I need some kind of numeric goal. This year I want to ride at least 3,000 miles (I rode 1,206 mi in...

It's missing self-stabilization and a few other improvements (more memory, more battery, bluetooth, etc.) but nothing that can't be done with time & money. I can see how in the future the rear camera feed could be projected on the corner of a some sort of google glass, replacing the little...

Watch this hybrid Range Rover drive up an insane 45-degree angle staircase Scary just seeing it. In other order of things, I don't think they should lend historic monuments/constructions for this kind of stuff. I'd guess the stairs have to suffer some damage from a big SUV digging and grabbing...

Pretty cool: Virtual snowman created by cyclist using app on London streets

Youth V-Tail blue snow shoes from Redfeather, only used a couple of times. They are 20" long, and supports up to a maximum of 100 lbs. Easy to put on and off. The V-Tail are a lot of fun in the snow and a little easier to walk in than the regular round tail snow shoes.

Youth snow shoes, used only a few times. Very light weight (1lb) and easy to put on and off. This is the manufacturer's description: "The Spark 20 Boy's Snowshoe is built for fast growing kids between the ages of 8-12. The easy to use Grom binding is simple and intuitive. The soft tongue of...

A few months ago I got a Fenix 5X and gave this to my son but he's not using it. I loved this watch. It's bomb proof, battery lasts a long time and the display is huge. The back-light and customization options for the display are great too. It can be mounted on the handle bars when riding if you...

Little use. It has a 1 1/4 connector and it comes with an adapter for a 2" receiver. $150

I bought these to wear over a pair of warm gloves for long rides in cold & wet weather. They are big for me so they move and twist around my hand. These are very light (about 1 oz.). I'm pretty sure they are XL or XXL. You can see the dimensions on the pics below. $30

I read in other forums that people were not happy by some actions/positions from IMBA (Colorado Front Range area). They said e-bike manufacturers were starting to control their objectives/agenda. Now I see this (below) and it makes me regret I renew the subscription this year... IMBA Testifies...

Niner RDO Stem 110mm Black and Red, +/-6 deg. $30

This are race tires (285 gr each) but can be used to lighten a bike to ride on gravel roads or pavement. I bought them for my son but they only saw a handful of rides in Columbia/Sussex trails before I switched him to more aggressive tires to go on trails. They look very worn but that's the...

Selling to fund a plus bike project. This is a custom frameset build. Pretty light at 25 lb 8 oz with 3.8/4.0 tires on 90mm carbon rims (as pictured below). Bike has the wear marks from being ridden & raced but has been maintained along the way and it’s in good working condition. Wheels run...
