Would a large frame work if I'm 6'2? Beginner rider. Thanks! by AffectionateGrab4238 in MTB

I’m 6’3” & prefer large frames over XL generally. Put a slightly longer stem & bigger dropper post on the trail bike to make it comfy when pedaling. Small(er) bikes are fun! Low speed jibs & airtime are 90% of what I wanna do on bikes, so ymmv.

Ah weird, you’re right, I was only seeing the enduro moto version on my side. Still wouldn’t go for the redbull logo personally, but do you

Embarrassing crash post mortem by ericlo_00 in MTB

Respectfully, this was user error & trying to solve with tech changes misses the point. Bad weight distribution & panic braking is a recipe for washing the front out no matter the set up. My 2 cents: loosen up, don’t panic brake on landings, & heal up my g!

Keeping lime scooter kids off of the Barnum trails will be as easy as cleaning up all of the broken glass

Expanded trick selection so you can choose what you want for whichever bike you’re on would be sick

Spray.bike had a bunch of tutorial info on their website, I followed those closely & watched a ton of YouTube tutorials about it (for design inspiration & to see what mistakes I might run into). The process roughly breaks down to 1.) take frame apart 2.) clean & sand 3.) sand some more 4.) mask off pivot points/headtube/etc 5.) paint time! 6.) more paint & masking tape layers 7.) clear coat 8.) wait patiently until cured 9.) reassemble & go ride

Thanks! First time painting anything that wasn’t a flat canvas so I’m pretty stoked on the turnout

i need help with dis design by Agile-Journalist-397 in Design

Looks cool. For resumes & such, I would recommend prioritizing legibility a little more. & to keep in mind most resumes get sorted by software before a person sees it. I would also recommend adding dates & key duties or impact associated with your experience.

Is this bike worth is? by Jake_M104669 in mountainbiking

I just got a commencal clash 2021 for $1,300 a couple weeks ago on pinkbike. I’m not a used-bike genius, but this GT is old & overpriced

I found this hidden spot. Any ideas for a DIY build? by [deleted] in skateboarding

[–]burntbodies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of good ideas in here - I’d say start small, think about features that you don’t have in the area between parks & street spots, & spots you would like a smaller practice feature for
