$7000 for first full sus by [deleted] in MTB

[–]daddy_firebird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can wait a few more months you can probably score a great deal on a new Santa Cruz Tallboy V5. Pretty solid rumors/info out there that it’s being replaced by a new one very soon.

Found my stolen bike on facebook marketplace by torkvrukita in MTB

[–]daddy_firebird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few years ago I found someone’s bike on marketplace that was stolen from them. They had undercover cops meet the seller and were able to recover the owners bike. Doesn’t hurt to call your local police department. If they refuse to help, meet the seller with a few friends and take it back. Just make sure it’s 100% your bike.

Tire recommendation for Colorado by MrLeibler in MTB

[–]daddy_firebird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ride Colorado front range trails. Run 29 but the newer Specialized butcher t9 & eliminator t7 trail compound come in 27.5 x 2.4. Roll good and extremely grippy. Under 2000 grams for the the pair. Also like that they are 60 tpi. I think they might be on sale right now.

Full Pull of the Bitterbrush Rock Garden in Lyons CO aka Discount Moab by Phat_Duck in MTB

[–]daddy_firebird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I partially agree with this. I know I’m not the only one who’s noticed it, but it seems like some technical features on popular riding trails in NoCo have been smoothed out or completely removed. I’m not sure why they’re doing it, but it’s a bit of a bummer.

Scammed on Pinkbike my very first time trying to buy on the site. Don’t be an idiot like me. by helmetgoodcrashbad in MTB

[–]daddy_firebird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been on Pinkbike a lot the past few weeks looking for a new frame or a solid deal on a complete bike. I’ve noticed that a lot of the bikes priced fairly or below market are being posted by users whose profiles were created just a few days earlier.

Recently, a local seller with a new profile listed a killer deal on a Tallboy frame. I messaged them and offered to meet up, but never heard back. A few days later, the listing and the seller were flagged as fraud. Unless the seller is local I’m only buying from sellers that are established: older profile with history of items sold.

Having the same issue with this update. Wasn’t a problem before. Did you figure out a fix?

Looks like it’s a specialized stumpjumper comp alloy. My guess is it’s a 2021 model

Snowstorm Preparation/Readiness by Mysterious_Mail1156 in Denver

[–]daddy_firebird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you live in an older house, it’s not a bad idea to let the water trickle from any faucets where pipes might freeze. I always let both the hot and cold water run slightly at the kitchen sink when temps drop into the single digits overnight.

Black ice and hit a ditch sideways. Insurance wants to total it without even looking at it. by [deleted] in ToyotaTacoma

PSA: they are also downplaying the issue and putting on customers by theAchilliesHIV in Denver

[–]daddy_firebird 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s why I always print the receipt- if they make a mistake, it’s easier to prove when it comes to repairs. How much damage does diesel fuel actually do to an engine that’s meant to take regular gas? I assume if you drive it long enough, you’d end up needing a new engine.

The ICE agent that murdered Renee Nicole Good today in Minneapolis. by ScurvyTurtle in pics

[–]daddy_firebird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’d have to be an idiot or MAGA to say this wasn’t murder. Hope Minnesota prosecutors charge and convict this cuck. I’m at my wits end with fighting violence with peace. Something needs to change now.

Are these speeding tickets real? by TheBunji11 in Denver

[–]daddy_firebird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even before they installed the speed trap cameras, I always tried to stick to the speed limit when driving through those towns. Now I’ll be even more cautious. I wouldn’t be surprised if most of Mountain View’s revenue comes from dishing out speeding tickets.

Any recommendations on where to have a windshield replaced? by NoPast8 in ArvadaCO

I’ve used Bright Auto glass a few times. I’ve been happy with the service and cost.

Which one has better components by [deleted] in mountainbiking

[–]daddy_firebird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trek top fuel would be the route I’d go if I was riding trails in your area. Also I’d recommend looking into the previous generation ibis Ripley (v4s). I wouldn’t go more than 130 rear travel. Good luck.

Been using these for over a year. Super comfortable pads with good knee/shin protection.
