There was that time I was rebuilding a wheel to replace the hub, unlaced the rim and spokes, had the hub in hand and then realized I had not yet taken off the fixed-gear cog. Sigh.

Not really knowing about the quality of the Maddux brand, I would say it is entirely possible to make a 32h wheel built adequately for a 200lb rider with 40lb or so load. You might even be able to...

How good are these? Are they $180-200 good or $50 good (with a $180 "real" price tag as an enticement)?

I am a sucker for bags and packs but I really don't need anything right now. However if...

FTFY.

Signed, one of those "far end" residents ;)

Do you still have the quill-to-threadless stem adapter?

Then of course I find a bike like this and it makes me feel confused and weird. I guess I sort of get what they're going for there; at least who they might be appealing to, and either their...

These are good insights. I found similar search results online and sort of a lack of well-rounded reviews. This coupled with the odd CL sales thing has me hesitating.



Nothing specifically...

I am looking at this for my wife:

But it is setting off my spidey senses. What do you think of Diamondback bikes in general? Normally I...

I'll be there.

I know it is a longshot, but I'd prefer a trade over selling them for cash. Mine are size 46; I need size 45. They are in excellent condition. Basically new with a handful of usage marks on them. ...

WOW the election has really affected this town :p

I wholeheartedly agree that we live in a golden age of bikes and components. Which is why I get all vexed and curmudgeonly whenever a friend wants advice on buying a Walmart bike.

But I think in...

You all just rode right past my house :-) We couldn't make this one but will be riding later today. Plus I wasn't sure the ride/route would be kid/trailer/friendly.

Grammar win. Thank you. :-)



I second the use of solid lights on the trail. My practice has been solid lights on the trail where they are less likely to be confused with a motor vehicle, and...

Rob a bank and find out! :-)

That's a crummy intersection because people don't think of the mall parking deck as a source of traffic. Also, I avoid Carlin Springs like the plague. Which is a...

We recently got a flyer for this: Alexandria Library Bike Tour. Saturday Oct 25 10am-12pm. Only about 13 miles, leisurely.

Seems like there is potential here for co-opting this as a Kidical Mass...

We just went through this, and here is what worked for us. Our daughter has been on a balance bike since she was about 4 years old. She wasn't really good at it until she saw some other kids on...

I am loving my Power Drive XL. I have a Mini Drive XL as well. The battery life of both of these isn't quite what Lezyne claims but they are still great lights and I dig the replaceable batteries. ...

R.I.P. could also stand for "Ride til It asPlodes"

I would just ride them til you start poppin' spokes. Might get some more life out of them.

There, IFTFY.

That it is. We live pretty close to this on the Seminary Road side, so we're really glad this finally happened, opening up the western side of Holmes Run Creek, and the trail to us. It also gives...

This feels like it should be correct. It is probably the answer I would come up with. Yet experience contradicts this (maybe not always but often). It is what makes this question hard.

I have no reason for posting this, other than "it exists".

Ahh. Peloton rules for the MUP.

See, what you haven't realized is that whether you knew it or not, you were a contestant in a Category 6 race. By stopping suddenly without calling it out to the...

No. And that is obviously the wrong analogy.



Again, no. That's not the right definition of "shoal" in this case. I think Capps is writing about a subject he hasn't bothered to really...
