The R3V Bicycle Thread

[5Toes]

I have to ride clipless pedals, cause my prosthetic leg wont stay on otherwise

I ride shimano spds, mainly because they are SO durable and cheap.

I hardly ever ride anymore though. But I just put an Avid bb7 mountain disc on the back of my raleigh, new Easton EA70 seatpost, and new cables ran.

The disc brake is dragging pad, but I still need to bed it in.

FYI to you guys out there though, dont buy Jagwire cables. Overpriced shit. Just go on eBay and get it all. Thats all

@ 5toes, jagwire is garbage, it's what almost every bike shop buys in bulk. If you want nice shit, get Shimano or Gore. Gore's kits are solid when set up right.

Good looking bike, get rid of some of the oem stickers, and the reflectors. A good light setup is cheap.

This is the Specialized Rockhopper I picked up earlier in the spring. It's been over a decade since I had a bicycle so it was time for something new. Love the disc brakes and it's a blast on the trails. Anyone near the Cleveland area, I highly recommend West Branch Reservoir near Ravenna. Very nice trails there.

Seems like I got the wrong chain too. I ordered a KMC 8 speed chain, and installed correctly... same length as the old one.

BUT it slipslike no tomorrow. God damn it

They are. There are tons of lines not seen in that picture. Here's some photos from last year. Riding trails with your friends is probably the absolute best thing about BMX

Bikes are fun

Nice, I think I may have been to these trails befor. We had to take my friend to the hospital after he hit his head.
