Thankfully it isn’t mine. Just something I saw on FB

I got these photos 3rd hand so it’s all I have to work with. Someone I know is considering it as a purchase, (seller’s asking $350), and I’ve no clue what the actual value would be. Trying to help the dude out.

I personally love the thing.

Thank you!

There’s something special about leaving the busy roads behind and getting lost in the quiet of the forest. 🌲

Just me, my bike, and a trail waiting to be explored. No rush, no noise — just fresh air and peace of mind.

These are the rides that remind me why I fell in love with cycling. ❤️🚲

What do you prefer: peaceful forest trails or long open-road rides?

The kids love it when a cyclist stops and makes a big deal out of it.

Even better if you are with a large group. Sometimes the parents come out to see what all the commotion is about. My friends and I hoot and holler as we ride away and make it memorable for everyone.

I stopped for the one pictured yesterday. $2 for a cup. I gave them a $5.

I know that the warm weather is winding down in the northern hemisphere but keep it in mind for next year. Be generous. It makes their day.

I need help Identifying this bike

Waaay out of my element here so I’m very thankful to have found y’all’s community. Hopefully you can see what the issue is in the video; sometimes the tensioner doesn’t want to pull back on the chain, causing slack and then it jumps off. What do I need to do?

I want something for commuting or just to ride on weekends, I hate maintenance so I want something single speed, rim brakes, but also around $150😬, I also don’t want used

From the Minneapolis Times in 1895...

Riding in my town. Motorist decided that they wanted to be on the other side of the median. To be clear, I don't think this was meant out of any kind of malice towards cyclists. I think the driver was inattentive. But still, first time I've seen something like this...

Hi,

I'm tuning up a 1995 Huffy BackWater, and have so far have gotten about 5 speeds out of the 18 gear Shimano. I realize once you get it stable, *don't use the front derailleur. New seat, new brake pads, easy. I put some new handlebar grips on it and noticed they were a bit longer than the original foam grips. Has anyone used those handlebar extensions by Control Tech or FMFXTR?.

The reason I'm asking is because these products say 22mm diameter, and It looks like the inside handlebar is a little less than that. Of course, I have twisted on the new grips so I can't measure exactly now. Probably have to take them off to get the extenders on *anyway. Does anyone know the specs of the inside diameter of the old Huffys? Also I'm considering using some oak dowel rod and glue, why not.

Anybody done this ride before? My 14yo and I are leaving VA Saturday morning before 6am to go ride and eat hot dogs. ...seems like a good time, and a good cause. ... So, anyone have experience with this one?

Hi!

I have been in contact with someone to buy a second-hand Triban RC520 bike. It is the version with a Shimano 105 groupset and semi-hydraulic disc brakes, and I have an agreement to buy it for 350 euros.

Does this seem like a decent deal? And what are things I should look out for when buying it? I've heard that you should check the chain at the big ring to see whether it is loose or not. The bike does seem like it was used quite a bit (or they may be old SPD pedals)?

Someone talk me out of buy my child a $200 woom WOW balance bike. We say one at the store and my child LOVED it. She can't even walk yet but was having the time of her life. Is it worth it? Just good marketing? Radio Flyer steady start for $50 really doesn't look THAT different? Thoughts, experiences, opinions?

New to me 2022 Specialized Roubaix Expert. Back into road cycling after a 30 year hiatus... Riding pinellas trail. Did my first 20 miler yesterday at 59 in and hour 20 at 15mph average.

61cm and I'm a tall fella at 6 ft 7.

Came from a speedy vintage mtb build and wanted something chill to commute to work and do tours with. I spent days looking at bikes online and since i'm a US bike brands loving german, i had to get it. A bit rare to find between the mainstream brands like cube or bulls. I'm thinking after i've worn down the tyres i'll give it some tan walls (schwalbe fat franks probably) and thats it for add ons for now.

Looking forward to many years with it!

Hey everyone, I wanted to get a nice bike for just riding around town chillin. I’ve done some research and it seems like a hybrid bike’s best for me. I wanna go second hand as it seems best for the value and I’m thinking about spending around 400 dollars. As of now I’m looking into the Trek FX2 or Cannondale quick 3/4.
I know there’s probably so much more bikes out there so I’m asking for recommendations. I also don’t know much about sizes or what to look out for when buying used and all that stuff. I’m really new to this lol. Thanks🙏

But how can I lift up my bike seat? Nothing near that I’ve pulled either way will move, do I need a tool to lift it? Or is there something I’m missing

last one was taken on a moutain in Xiamen, the others were taken at GuShan Moutain Fuzhou
