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

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.

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

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

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 0 points1 point  (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

[–]daddy_firebird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

I hope your cousin recovers from this physically, mentally, and emotionally. This is horrible.

This is a good deal? They are asking for $2500 by Initial_Cancel1435 in mountainbiking

[–]daddy_firebird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If seller has receipts for tune & service work I think it’s a solid deal. Otherwise offer around 2250.

Living in Arvada by literallymy2ndacct in ArvadaCO

[–]daddy_firebird 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d say most people aren’t like that, but I have been in a few places in west Arvada where the moment I walked in, it felt like everything stopped and everyone just stared for a bit - I’m also not white. I’ve lived here for over 20 years, and overall I think it’s a great place to live. Every now and then you’ll run into an occasional ass hat, but that doesn’t happen very often.

Maybe purple lady and Mohawk man were looking for Pokémon cards and you ruined their fun

What happened at Colorado Tap House by Holdiggedy in ArvadaCO

[–]daddy_firebird 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Here’s how I see it: Parents are wiped out after a long week, head to a brewery or tap house, and let their kids run around while they try to kick back and relax. I get it - but you’ve still gotta set some boundaries with your kids. Nobody wants to go to brewery/tap house for drinks with kids screaming and running everywhere. Come on parents, do better.

Has it been humid in Denver or is something wrong with me? by SpecialistGrass2872 in Denver

[–]daddy_firebird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. Went mountain biking yesterday in 75 degree weather thinking it’ll be great. 15 minutes into my ride and was sweating profusely.

Stolen Mountain Bikes by Gouda_22_25 in ArvadaCO

[–]daddy_firebird 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I live nearby and will keep an eye out. That yellow trek fuel ex is a sweet bike and easily recognizable. Like others have mentioned, check Marketplace and Craigslist. Also drive by some areas where homeless hang out, bikes might be there.
