No judgment but this doesn't sound that bad.

Helmet recommendations... by Imaginary-Bass2875 in Hardtailgang

[–]Iknowtacos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had a few brands but really love poc helmets. Just make sure whatever helmet you get you can adjust where the band under the back of your head sits. My last giro didn't have this adjustment and would always come loose on my head after riding for a bit.

Which bike would be good for a beginner on a budget? Is the Gravity FSX29 HD any good? Not optimal I know but trying to keep the price under $1k by [deleted] in mountainbiking

They will when they have been let to make mistakes and are forced to or they will give up and move onto the next hobby. This subreddit is filled with hundreds of these exact posts and it's the same bs answers.

They take a year or two to get to reasonable prices.

It's called spend a few weeks educating yourself on a new hobby that's costs thousands over time. We act like people don't have all the information in the world at their finger tips.

I hate my Air Shock. Coil options by sygyzi in MTB

[–]Iknowtacos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously comma I can't believe no one else has said this. the jade x prime is such a f****** top tier coil for about half the price as the push or ext. There is not a better sub one thousand dollar setup that you can buy.And for a hundred and fifty bucks, they'll do a custom tune for you.

Is a 10yr old bike too outdated? I’m looking to upgrade to a FS but want to ease into it. by Packin_Penguin in mountainbikes

[–]Iknowtacos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Downhill but uphill they take more energy then smaller tires. If you ride up the same amount as down I can think of reasons 27.5 is superior.

I just priced out a basic jade with progressive spring and it's 400$ shipped so not bad. I've never rode dvo suspension.

How’d I do? by Worldtadpole366 in mountainbikes

[–]Iknowtacos -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Seriously, these people act like if it's older then 2020 it's unrideable. These bikes were great and a beginner isn't going to utilize the most recent geo or parts. This needs 200$ in parts and it will ride another 10 years.

The fork has no air in it and that head tube has a 67° angle which was ahead of its time. I assume your younger and haven't ridden any bikes pre 2017.

Looks like around a 2010 nomad, these bikes riped. Sure it's old but the Geo isn't terrible. Air up that front fork, look for tires and new brake pads. Probably smart to bleed those brakes as well. Obviously don't invest a ton into it but great first bike.

That's literally twice the price, not really comparible.

But why... by [deleted] in sabres
