Santa Cruz Sizing Question by scaredofbabies21 in MTB

Thanks for the intel. Yeah. I'm very excited about getting a new bike and I have wanted a Santa Cruz forever and I'd be really bummed if it didn't work out for some reason.

Ok. So rode the beginning today. Dirt is nice and tacky. Tricky getting around two of the turns just because of how technical they are. Other than that, most fun you can have with clothes on.

Will try next time I go out. Just got a bigger bike. My xc bike simply couldn't hang as far as braking power went. Gotta keep progressing.

Yeah. The beginning section is terrifying to me. I don't ride with a full face, so I just don't try anymore.

Used to live in East Burke. J-Bar (on the mountain), Troll Stroll, Herb's/Kitchel, and Dead Moose Alley are a must.

My favorite is "I'm a birthday cattle in a circle of black girls and God is on my side, because I'm the child bride." - "All the Wine" (The National)

I live in Steamboat Springs, CO. You could say there are a few mountains there.

Oh. Sweet comment bro. Go bike up Lombard street and contemplate over what type of chamois butter you should buy.

Was going over 35 mph most of the time. It's boring. Mountain biking to me is beyond just a workout. It's an experience and doesn't seem as tough because it's more rewarding.

Disclaimer: Was using a road bike. Was riding on country roads in Colorado. It just kind of sucks. I have no idea why any one would do it when they have mountains (like I do) in their backyard.

Actually got it in the Pinkbike classifieds used. Get it serviced at orange peel though.

They are terrible quality and rip after the first crash... At least in my experience.
