Going to upgrade my 2020 Diamondback Hook and I don't know which upgrade to do. I was thinking of either getting a cheaper suspension fork like the Suntour XCM32 Lo R Air (77$ for all discounts) And than also getting some Shimano MT200s and upgraded Deore levers for it. Or getting a Suntour Raidon XC-LO-R (220$ with discounts), and than get the Shimano MT200s and levers in like 6 months when I save up for it. submitted by /u/W4ltzz_ [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Looking at getting back into mtb. Not looking for anything crazy, just as decent as I can get for the money. Maybe max $800 Canadian. I found 2 bikes at the moment, Just wondering what would be better for the money between these two. Will be lots of trail riding, nothing too intense, will probably work my way up. A new Giant Talon 3 29er for $699. Or a used 2019 Kona Fire Mountain 27.5 at $500. submitted by /u/Eyo27 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

How stupid is it for me to mountain bike in glass lens sunglasses, anyone impacted their eyes in a crash? I've been mountain biking for like 30 years, plenty of crashes, never landed on my face. I live in the northern rockies and bike a lot, but don't jump. However, I'm getting older and increasingly appreciative of having good eyesight and don't want to show up at the ER with glass in my eyeballs. Plastic and polycarbonate lenses (yes I've owned some smiths) are just noticeably lower quality optics compared to glass, they eventually give me a headache and make me feel disoriented/sloppy ..read more

Good morning MTB community, So I just found out that I have a passion for mountain biking. I recently moved out to Arizona from the Midwest, and I decided to buy a generic $200 mountain bike from Walmart just to get me started. Before I continue I want to apologize for my ignorance because I fully understand how dumb I’m about to sound. I took the bike out to Sedona yesterday, and I learned very quickly that different terrains require different bikes. I road Hiline trail and biked up to the white line (a bucket list item) just to check it out. I’m an adrenaline junky (skydiver, rock climber ..read more

Hello, I just got a new bike from the LBS and rode it around my neighborhood. I noticed the front rotor was rubbing. I adjusted the brakes and now they only rub when i turn. is it just normal for a new bike to do that until pads get worn in? My bike does not have a QR tire. Technically my NBD was wednesday but i didnt get to ride it until today (damn night shift) I got a giant fathom 2 27.5 submitted by /u/Bungbong [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
