Bicycles - What u ride?

Roadie? MTB? Post your bicycle up.

+4 to your 4Runner for a photo with your bike in scenic locations.

 

My cheap Walmart sh*t..

 

A peloton

 

With the high gas prices I will start riding 2 wheels to save a little gas .

 

MTB=Santa Cruz Megatower (For park/Shuttle), EMTB=Specialized Turbo Levo Comp (For everything else)

 

2001 Rocky Mountian Rail - cyclocross mostly always used for commuting to/from work.

Only remaining original parts: frame, crank, stem, handlebar. Everything else replaced because it eventually wore out or broke (including derailed hanger, thank you commuter who ran across a crosswalk on red)

 

2013 Salsa Horsethief. It's named after the Horsethief Trail in CO, riding this bike there a few years ago was a thrill. And no, I did not attempt the drop in!

I was going to post a pic with my 4R, but this 70s squarebody firetruck is way cooler. It's still in service, they were doing ice rescue drills.

 

I don't really ride anymore. But, I rode a lot in the 90's. This was a pretty nice bike back then. It's super outdated now, though.

'97 Trek Y3.

 

Classic! Even has the rear coil shock!

 

I'm 70..and still ride....My road bike is a 1999 Mongoose Pro Titanium...certainly not a 'wal-goose'....have two mountain bikes..a 1996 Mongoose IOBC PRO SX.....and a 1991 schwinn Paramount series 70....

 

This thread has taken off faster than a old Montero with severed brake lines down a Bolivian mountain.......

My Look 765 (Took a year and a half to find a bike my size...)

 

Before I started building the 4runner, I was (still kinda) a mountain bike whore....

My Santa Cruz Nomad V3:


Cracked that frame going OTB then got a Nomad V4 replacement frame:


Sold that bike then got a Megatower during the pandemic:



Then sold that bike because I didn't have time to ride anymore with a fulltime, baby, and the wife taking orders to Japan for 2 years. So I ride a ebike now. Because I'm here for a good time, not a long time:

 

sweet.....ride....nice!

 

Such a stealth looking bike! Are those hydraulic disc brakes??

 

Yes!! I do yearn for the rim brakes of my other bike. Easier for traveling, you don't have to worry about the calipers closing in on you with the wheels off (If the insert falls out)

 

(Just for fun)
The stupid stuff I do..

 

A red Burley tandem with my wife. Rode a 1000 miles last year and hoping for 1200 miles this year.

 

I found this one in the trash.

 

I love TI!! I have a 2002 Litespeed I use for Zwift

 

Specialized Levo

 

Pivot Mach 6


Yeti SB130

 

Chameleon.

 

Just picked up my first bike. A specialized fuse comp 29. I wanted to get a hardtail to focus on my lines and get comfortable handling the bike. Eventually when I get more experience I’ll upgrade to a full suspension.

 

What bike rack is that?

 

Looks like a 1up (which I also own and love), but if you’re in the market for a new bike rack, check out QuickR too

 

Soul beach cruiser, oversized BMX frame. 3 speed hub. I enjoy the shit out of this bike.
Red mountain

 

Yeti SB130

 

Surly Wednesday for snow, Salsa Cutthroat for gravel, Revel Ranger for trails. Not a battery among them.

 

Just so you are aware, that frame is awesome. I purchased a Fuse frame just to build up single speed when they were first released a couple years ago. The fuse makes for a great single speed, the horizontal dropouts are a dream, they never slip or give any issues. I’m 49 and ride my single speed the majority of the time and I also have a Ibis Ripley that just rocks. I take my single speed all over AZ, usually 20+ miles and climbing a couple thousand feet per ride. It’s the best workout and keeps me feeling young. You won’t see me on anything with a motor for at least 20 years.

Don’t sell that frame. I would build it up single speed when you get a full squish bike and you will have a great combo. Single speed for when you want a killer workout and you full squish geared bike for days when your body hurts.

 

Customer 29er singlespeed, sadly no longer in my possession.



Eccentric BB for chain tension. XT crank with Spot guard, XT hydraulic disks, King headset, Thomson post and stem, Mavic wheel set. Here with platforms, but usually ran Time ATACs. Columbus Thron/ True Temper Verus tubing.
