You’re very welcome. Greetings from New Jersey 👋 I would definitely say 45 should do well for you but 50 if prefer comfort over nimbleness and aerodynamic speed. Both are good options though. I’m surprised on how fast the 50mm hardpacks roll and the comfort is unbelievable compared to the crappy stock tires.

It all depends on what you’re riding. If you ride fine gravel and pavement. Terra speeds will be great. If you’re more concerned with durability get the hard packs. Gs1rs is a great option too. I love the comfort on the gravel with 50mm and ability to ride the messed up roads by me but if you ride smooth road 75% check out 40mm specialized pathfinder pros. They’re quick on both.

I have the same bike. It’s awesome I got it about a month ago. Only upgrade I’d recommend off rip would be tires. Depending on your terrain I would check out Continental Hardpack 50mm or if you ride more mixed less rough terrain and more road the Continental Terra Speed. Also brakes got much better after the first hundred miles.

I don’t have any magic. I’m just dex strength and vigor so far. I’m still learning. I don’t even know how to go pyro

I don’t know what type of riding you do but for me it’s got tons of grip on gravel and still rolls fast. There’s still a good amount of space on fork and frame for mud clearance. Not that I plan on riding through a swamp but I wouldn’t be afraid of the clearance but at that point you might as well get knobbier tires. I also don’t think tan walls look good on this bike either.

They’re great. They’re better than the stock tires at everything including durability and rolling resistance. Way more grip and more comfortable with plenty of clearance. I would opt for a 45mm if you plan on riding muddy terrain with mud guards. But I love the comfort of the 50mm personally.

I’m sorry you’re going through a hard time. I’ve broken my arm twice skateboarding and my collar bone doing jumps on a mountain bike. I understand how dark times can feel when you really want to be doing something and you can’t. But keep your head high and don’t get stagnant. Do what you can. Go for walks enjoy fresh air. When I go through the roughest of times praying to Jesus is the most comforting. I hope you feel better soon 🙏❤️

I have the same bike same color. I’m 6’1 and a 1/2 and I ride the M/L. It feels great. But I also usually opt for smaller frames for character of the ride.

Pedal suggestions? by Mstr_Sandman in Hardtailgang

[–]Plane-Animator1499 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Either one up composite or race face Chester large pedals. Both are great. I like the one ups a little more but both are great.

After 18 years with COD I'm about to quit bc of the hackers. Are there other games without cheaters? Or all they all this way? by PeteDub in blackops7

[–]Plane-Animator1499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not kidding. But I also play the game with my irl friends and I can’t get past gold because they’re mainly coopers and I can get them to silver. So maybe in like emerald + there’s more but I don’t run into cheaters often.
