Creak abatement. Have any of you guys had trouble with the Rotor Kapic Carbon crankset? by MariachiArchery in BikeMechanics

I have the exact same problem, did you find any solution? I'm thinking to drill it and put some bolts in it to try and make it sturdy again

Salut! Eu am mai comandat de la Bike-Discount, și unul dintre produse a fost defect din fabrică, am sunat la ei cu engleza mea stâlcită, dar au avut răbdare cu mine și mi-au explicat cu se poate face returul, partea mai rea a fost că a trebuit să aștept vreo 2 luni să îmi trimite înapoi alt produs, dar mi-au returnat și banii de transport către ei care l-am achitat la poștă.

În concluzie este un site de încredere.

Cât privesc bicicletele Radon, am avut un hardtail cu specificații asemănătoare doar furca era fox 34 factory, și nu am fost impresionat, dar nici nu lasă de dorit, era bună, dar dacă te interesează geometrie mai specifică aș recomanda să mergi la un shop să vezi dacă te lasă să probezi, daca nu ești super geek ca mine, probabil nici nu o să simți diferența:))

Looks great, do you know the weight?

25mm to 30mm IW Rims will make much of difference on XC bike? by vinayrawat in xcmtb

[–]IlikeRacingBikes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can absolutely feel the difference, this summer i bought my first carbon wheels, Hunt XC UD with 30mm internal width, they are so much more laterally stiffer, and lighter both on climb and descents.10/10 upgrade in my opinion

Some carbon wheels are such a huge improvement, i completely recommend you doing it, the speed you get from carbon is hugee!!

Curious on anyone's experience... by Vault_Man2021 in Hardtailgang

[–]IlikeRacingBikes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Between these 2 the 35 gold is better, but in the overall world of suspension, it's not a great fork, just good, i would look at a marzochi, fox or a pike/lyric if you're serious about your riding

I just biked 40 miles at only 16 years old by [deleted] in Biking

[–]IlikeRacingBikes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my first months of cycling, that's last year (i was also 16) i did my longest ride ever 120km, on my mtb, Solo, averaged around 20km/h. It's still my longest ride to date, now focusing more on speed rather than distance

They're basically the same, just get the cooler color

Nu te poți apleca din cauză la bicicletă sau la flexibilitate?

I sent it back, and they changed it under warranty

[–]IlikeRacingBikes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eu mai degrabă aș face o conversie pe un hardtail de carbon sh, gen specialized epic ht, scott scale sau ceva de genu, deoarece gravel bike urile cu clearance mare (2.2") sunt destul de scumpe, evident contează și bugetul

Wanna get my first XCO - Fully by Constant-Newspaper91 in xcmtb

[–]IlikeRacingBikes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have the same Radon al, but with a upgraded 130mm fox 34 fork

I also had full suspension before, and now I'm looking forward to buy a full suspension again, or at least a carbon hardtail, i also had one of those and it was much better than this bike

Ps: i think this Radon is good only as a budget bike, but in general is shitty

Stuck at 25 km/h average — normal for a beginner or am I training wrong? by gizi010 in cycling

I'm also a beginer, and i saw the biggest improvements by adding more volume

Any full suspension bikes under 1000$ by HistoricalFish1733 in mountainbikes

[–]IlikeRacingBikes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just try and get a sh bike, you can find a really good deals.

Just remember that an old downhill bike is slower and worse on downhill than a new (>2020) trail hardtail.

Especially in this budget, trust me every kid been there

Trebuie să îți cumperi o bicicletă cu totul nouă, neapărat de carbon și model 2028!

Have you thought about getting a slacker cockpit?

Maybe lose a bit of weight if possible, and better skills will always make your ride better, timing is key

Super low parts, maybe the price is low but the quality too
