Hey y'all I'm putting the important stuff in red. I'm trying to do a full suspension bike build for under $300. That's actually not (I hope) as dumb as it sounds. Here's what I think I need: Full Suspension Frame Rear Shock (if frame's rear shock is bad) Shifters Frame: I found a $70 Genesis...

Heya folks. To give some background on myself, I'm 30, 6'2", and currently about 287lbs, down from 305 at the start of the year. To make a long story short, my dad and I are riding bikes together to lose weight, and he's got himself a mountain bike (A 2009 Scott Aspect) while I've got a gravel...

I am currently riding the Norco Fluid H2. A budget hardtail and I was looking for some budget upgrade ideas. I know of tire inserts, but do they do much and how much should I be paying. I would love to upgrade my coil fork but I don't have the money at the moment. Tire pressure. I like to...

What does "affordable" really mean? Last year after the cycling industry's annual trade show known as Interbike, I did a write-up on some of the best value mountain bikes for 2015. Now, just as then, the amount of bike you can get for $3000 has never been higher. But using the term "affordable"...

Please be sure to read the lastest round-up of the most affordable mountain bikes for $3000 here>> Now is a great time to buy a mountain bike. The amount of bike that you can get for $3000 has never been higher. While most of us would balk at spending $7,000 to $8,000 (or more) on a new...

When I linked Gov. Brown's proposed parks budget ( https://www.ebudget.ca.gov/pdf/GovernorsBudget/3000/3790.pdf ) in some other threads I was hoping to see it generate some discussion (without having to drag in the topic of OHV's!) Sadly, it appears that not many in this group were willing to...
