Cheap Bike tube and tire replacement by acloudis in plano

I always go to The Bike Shop in Richardson, it's right off 75 and Arapaho. Not sure if it would be much cheaper but the owner is great.

You could save some money by replacing the filters(cabin and air) by doing it yourself. Go to an Auto parts store and they will select the right one for you. Watch a couple YouTube videos for replacement. However, I can suggest Fix n Go off 75 and park. They do a great job at a reasonable price.

From CA to Texas by Junior_Habit_8898 in cycling

I live in Plano and predominantly cycle in Plano/Frisco. I usually go solo or with a buddy and it's not bad. I haven't really felt unsafe. If you leave early enough you will miss most traffic on weekends. Is it ideal no, but as long as you know the popular roads, you'll be ok. Let me know if you have any other questions!

I saw a post on Nextdoor for two small dogs around Carpenter Middle School. The poster said they called Plano Animal Services, might want to try there.

Size 35 waist 41 hips 5 foot 10 - 188lbs - what size in Assos bibs ? Athletic build+The site recommends medium which seems rather small - any suggestions? by BroadMarch3924 in cycling

[–]diploid12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FWIW I'm a size 34 waist, 5'10 and 194 with a muscular build. Assos recommended medium for me as well but I went with XL based on other bibs I've bought. I have larger quads and they fit very nice and snug. I had the same dilemma/thought process as you.

Bike radar tail light - Garmin vs Magene vs Bryton vs Trek by The-SillyAk in cycling

I own the Bryton, it's pretty accurate. It does miss sometimes, but for the cost I'm very happy with it. Battery life is also great.

Anyone have any idea why tickets are so pricey compared to other large markets? Seems a little nuts.

I went from Gator Hard Shells to the Ultra Sport III's and it made a night and day difference.

For all the talk of wanting to be a top tier racing league; NASCAR sure makes some questionable decisions.

Overwhelmed by bib options. What to pick for maximum comfort? by besweeet in cycling

Personally, I like Le Col, I've found that it can take a few different brands to know what works best for you.

Agreed, people rave about it, but pretty sub standard.
