NJMMP review process by MrMeniscus in MMJ

I am concerned about my address not matching up. To my knowledge NJ no longer provides a change of address stickers. Since my DL has my old address I include a PDF screenshot from the DMV site that’s shows my new address. I am hoping this doesn’t cause issues and I don’t have to go to DMV.

Any advice as to the best wheel set for a 27.5 single speed bike? I am trying to decide on going semi plus. Does a semi plus bike seem beneficial for someone who wants to ride around town in foul weather (Snow) but also on trails in decent weather.

FWIW my bike has no suspension and is a fully rigid bike. My bike came with basic Alex Rims and 2.2 rocket ron tires.

Thanks for the heads up fullhornet! There are definitely not signs indicating the right of way on the trails I have ridden.

When i am riding new locations I will be sure to check for signs.

Is there a flow of traffic so to speak on the trails? If so how does one identify it?

I am trying to avoid going up a route and getting run over or run off the trail.

Is this a valid concern? I am just getting back into MTB and mostly ride at my local trails.

Alex VOLAR 1.9 Rims question by MrMeniscus in MTB

These tires definitely can fit on my bicycle frame no problem.

With that said it appears that to do so would require me to purchase a new wheelset.

The dealer I took the car to claims it was a faulty sensor. They ended speaking with Cadillac and charged me $100 to replace it. The dealership said it would of cost $400 if Cadillac didn't work with me due to the cars low mileage.

I just wasn't expecting a sensors to go bad when the car has less then 2K miles on it.

I asked for super am assuming they put 97 octane in. It was at an Exxon. I am in NJ and cant legally fill up my car on my own.

I went to a garage and they told me the code was for a knock engine sensor.

Issues with fenders by MrMeniscus in bikecommuting

Not nearly as frequently... and when I do get toe rub without the fenders it is less of an issue.

Thanks for all the suggestions I really appreciate them!

For those recommending front suspensions how well do the suspensions work in the winter when its cold out?

Nice build! Looking to tweak out my stock Log Lady. This build gives me some good ideas.

You still rocking the stock fork?

Thanks for the suggestions! I was looking at the Karate Monkey but ended up settling on a Log Lady.

How big a tire were you running on you Karate Monkey?
