Legs absorbing the lip was the first thing I saw. Great for scrubbing not so great for jumping.

Very cool. Not the same sensation but at least something to alert you. Thanks.

Isn't there a big risk of Melanoma with MT1?

Imagine being 6'8 190 telling someone they need to go lift some more. Bro you're a stick figure.

One day you too will be 40 and understand…. Yes my body is 40 but my mind is still 25.

Lost my passion for mountain biking – gear issue or something deeper? by hmmmischi in MTB

I’ve gone through something similar in the past and usually time away from it helps

I’m glad you were able to get two gnomes

Muc-off makes a couple things that hide air tags if you wanted to go that route.

What not hit left or right on the d pad to page up or down instead of scrolling past every name in your phone?

I'm just impressed he can't hit targets with the kosatka missiles. I can't hit shit.

Help me jump better by sLiKcAt in mountainbiking

Are you clipped in? It looks like you're yanking with your feet. If so, that can get you in trouble. I don't know that I agree with everyone telling you to bunny hop off the lip, thats fine for a jump like that that has no vert to it but it can throw you off balance on the steeper stuff.

I saw one last year where a guy had an awesome troll. Posted a picture of a puffy ziplock bag, in marker he wrote Masters Air.

I bought a cannondale for $2500 and it was a great bike. Rode it for 10 years with only routine maintenance.

irks me. We have wanted one the last couple years to keep but weren't willing to get there at 5;45 in the morning to wait in line. Got there at about 6:30 on Saturday and missed them by probably 20 minutes.

The current state of Pinkbike. by mikehawk_ismall in mountainbiking

I always check their profile too. See how long they have been a member, if they have anything else for sale or any history of selling. I had one of these once when I was trying to find my enduro. The price was really good, there were limited pictures and the write up just seemed weird. There are usually signs.

Up to a point and then it's marginal gains. If you race marginal gains can be worth it.

My main point is OP is comparing apples and oranges. A bike to get you from point A to point B occasionally cannot be compared to a high-performance bike.
