thats the next purchase forsure
I did this today on a quick 40 mile ride before class. It is pretty much all flat with 2 baby climbs that you can power up. I put the pace a lil faster than normal (21.5 vs 19-20) and they were def feeling it, they made it very clear as we came back into town that they were feeling this ride. As for the hills, not a good judge but they didnt fly past me which was nice. I dropped to about 16mph maybe 15.5 on the up and they werent more than a bike length ahead of me.
meh, Im not racing yet or anything this is just for fun with some pals and improving myself. Im still trying to balance this with gaining in the gym

Been having to cycle into/back from the gym 4 days a week now! Pretty good exercise for my cut.
Thinking about investing in a new bike seat as my one is so damn uncomfy (Seeing as I'm saving £100/~$200 a month from not taking the bus). Have you brah's got any good recommendations for a good comfy seat?[300 Spartan Crew]

Agreed, as you get more and more miles underneath you, you will notice wheel stiffness more and more, but until then, get clipless pedals and work on smoothing out your pedalstroke. If you know anyone with a set of rollers, give those a shot.

Hit the trails last night for about an hour. Felt really good man. I haven't done any trail riding in almost a year and now realizes a new mountain bike would be awesome than my entry level Trek.

So bike folks, technical question here, that I haven't been able to figure out.
Something in the back half of the bike feels weird, the best way I can describe it. Almost feels like the back wheel is wobbling around? At different speeds, generally while peddling, but also felt it while coasting, I've never felt anything like it. It certainly didn't inspire confidence heading into the fast downhill sections last night. First thing I checked that the wheel was in correctly and tight.
Checked:
Spoke tension
Tire pressure
Tire wear
Wheel Tru
Cassette
Freehub
Bearing play
Bottom Bracket
Checked the frame for any signs of cracks
Anything else you guys can think of?***kneedraggers crew***

Anyone else get really bad shrinkage after a ride? Idk if it's normal or if the way I'm seated on the bike cuts off circulation to my unit in a way that it shouldn't.
He's not getting up Jim!

What's a good bike just to ride to the gym (about 4 miles each way)?

I've got a stripped screw holding my saddle post and I need to raise it a bit. How can I get it out and replace it? It's a 5 mm allen key screw.
Can I do it myself or do I need to take it to a bike shop. (I don't own a drill...)
I tried with rubber band but it wouldn't bulge.☆ ☆ QUEBEC CREW ☆ ☆

If you have a hand drill with the correct bit you can just drill in and pull out, but a drill press is ideal. If you have a machinist/machine shop/metal workshop nearby, those are good, but a bike shop might not be bad either, especially if they build their own frames.
On mountains, sure. On hills, some big guys can put out so much power it negates the weight difference over shorter distances, say 500ft elevation gain.

I'm looking for a hybrid bike which I can use to travel around and also use for trails/mountain biking. I would prefer if it was lightweight, since it is a hybrid bike, not a full mountain bike. My price range is about $200-300, maybe $350 if pushing it.
Also, I saw this nice one for around $350 which was black and gold. If anyone can find me that too.
Reps for help. Thanks in advance."Never chase girls, chase dreams first. Motion picture drive, I've concluded that my Dreamworks™"

By the way, are GT mountain bikes a good brand?
