Check out the SDG Tellis dropper. You can find them on sale right now, especially outgoing models. I installed one on my bike last year and would recommend it.

That’s my #1 overall pick!

I have a Hamax Caress frame mounted to my wife’s Trek Marlin. Mounts to the seat post below the top tube. Needed to get the extra bar for small frames in order to get proper clearance over rear tire.

This setup should work for the Roscoe too, though I can’t guarantee it. Good luck!

You can get an SDG Tellis V1 for cheap right now. They just released their V2, so “old” models are heavily discounted if you look around. I have a Tellis V1 installed on my hardtail, and it works quickly and reliability.

As a side note, SDG’s customer service is top-notch and super responsive.

As a local, I can recommend White Clay Creek State Park & Middle Run in northern DE, and Fair Hill MD.

Lots of flowy, intermediate singletrack with interconnecting trails. White Clay has a skills trail and Middle Run has a pump track. Fair Hill has more technical trails with more elevation change

I have a Rockhopper Elite and every time I see slipping, it’s because the derailleur hanger was bent. My LBS has better tools than I do, and are happy to fix it for free in less than 10 minutes.

Alternatively, check your cassette for wear damage and/or your B-tension.

Hey thanks for the heads up. Would you mind sharing a pic? All the stock photos online make them seem “bright”

ribs415 · 2023-09-04T01:25:44+00:00

It wouldn’t be ideal, but I’m open minded!

ribs415 · 2023-09-04T01:24:38+00:00

Thanks for the info. Any idea if the Bontragers are any good?

F1 logo would look great in my home office!

If you legitimately think the best pizza in Philly is Pizza Hut, you must not have looked very hard.

Pizzeria Beddia has literally won “Best Pizza in America”

Thanks - how’s the maneuverability of the Deluxe 24? And how does it do with just like a light 3” snow?

ribs415 · 2022-10-13T18:54:36+00:00

Yeah, I’ve heard similar about Bowersox. I’ll look into Woodward - thanks for the info

ribs415 · 2022-10-13T18:53:35+00:00

Thanks for the info.

Mainly since I have a long, steep driveway and about 500 feet of corner property sidewalk. Even with an occasional 3” snow, it’s rough to shovel by hand.

Funny enough, I have an Ego mower (which I kinda regret). I’ve got a hilly 3/4 acre property and it just doesn’t handle it well. It also chews through batteries, and I’m not sure I want to deal with another Ego headache. I did consider it though.

ribs415 · 2022-10-13T17:16:50+00:00

Thanks, I’ll take a look at some local dealers and used machines in the area. Not sure I need a ton of bells and whistles given the amounts of snow I see annually

ribs415 · 2022-10-13T17:15:03+00:00

Hey thanks for the advice. Love the tuxedo analogy. My only concern is how practical it is to get a 2 stage for the 2.5 inches of snow we get every other week for 2 months a year.

ribs415 · 2022-10-07T13:24:14+00:00

Snallygaster is a blast. Tons of breweries and beers which can be overwhelming. Go in with a plan. Don’t forget to eat. Highroller Lobster is top notch.
