I want peoples opions on what the best looking full face helmets are

Hi everyone, about to buy my first enduro bike after being of the bike for more than ten years, I got to test ride a M Jekyll on the streets and not on the trail and it felt great to me but with my 182 cm (6 feet?) the website recommends me the size L bike, so my question to current Jekyll owners, how accurate is the sizing of the bike and where some of you disappointed and regretted getting a size bigger or smaller? I got some Friends who recommend going for the M with my dirt jump background but something inside me tells me to trust the website more than them 😅

Looking for some recs for fun flowy trails in southern Chile/Argentina. My partner and I are flying into Puerto Montt in the middle of December and are looking for fun places for mountain biking if anyone has any recs or knows any good resources to find trails let me know! Thanks

I got a new fork on my bike the Marzocchi Super Z and it has HSC and LSC. I set it up to factory recommended settings, got the sag around the recommended amount. I’ve never been a super suspension nerd and just got with the general. Fully open when descending and fully closed with climbing is that what most people do or did I pick up a bad habit? I think I heard the MTB podcast guys say they never mess with their compression setting after it’s set up. Anyways thanks for any insight.

I'm 1m64 and I want to buy a commencal clash, I saw that it was small and only size M is available, what would you recommend?

• Looking for an effective, safe Bike Rack for my 2015 Toyota Corolla LE Sedan.
• Should not scratch my car.
• Am a Noobie. Do not have any experience in this.
• Need to transport 1 regular bike
• Cost effective options please.

Someone had suggested "bolt on hitch with 1.5" receiver". Is there a link for this?

Request suggestions and help please. Thanks

For bike brakes do you tighten both bolts all the way or do you keep one slightly loose so the brake can shift and apply even pressure?

I bought a bike with shimano DEORE 10v (1 chainring only). I believe it's m4100 model. I seem to recall I was able to shift up to 3 gears with one press at the beginning. However it no longer seems to work.

Is this something that could be failing because of adjustment? About one month ago I brought it to the shop because it failed to gear the last speed. After 2 attempts they fixed, but I didn't ask what was the issue (I assumed it was adjustment). Now I'm wondering if they had replaced the shifter for a cheaper model without the ability to multishift.

EDIT: The shifter has the text: SL-M4100 Japan.

EDIT 2: I think I found the issue, but I have no idea why it occurs. The main lever collides with the one in the back when it's pressed. I have no idea what they have done but it looks like the main lever should be about 5mm lower than where it is now, to avoid colliding with each other. Otherwise it's only able to make like a third of the movement. That's why it only changes 1. I will go to the shop again.

Building a bike for aesthetics and not absolute performance and still want it to be usable are there any dual or triple crown forks I can fit on this bike Giant talon 2

I ordered a new bike last weekend, was thinking about getting insurance for it. Does anybody else insure their bikes?

title, apart from the obvious price difference, and the POE on the two, I am looking for people's opinions and their experience with either Hope Pro 5 or i9 Hydra for Downhill applications..

How do they feel? w.r.t pedal kickback, etc.
Did you manage to wear them out riding pure DH? How long did it take?

I am really leaning towards i9 Hydra, as I want a really loud sounding hub for my area.. but checking out what the community feels.

I found the giant reign 2 29 for a 1700$ Do you guys think it worth the money?

Where can i find old downhill frames and parts for a decent price with shipping?

I'm new to mountain biking but have been a road cyclist and commuter for about 12 years. I saw this hard tail on sale and wanted to see if anyone had thoughts on the price.

1,839 for this bike: https://www.contebikes.com/product/bmc-twostroke-01-five-419320-1.html

Twostroke 01 is a progressive, compliant and confidence-inspiring fast hardtail. Its TCC-designed carbon frame has radical geometry for steep and loose terrain, wide tire clearance, integrated fork stopper and frame protection, plus internal cabling and provision for a dropper post. A RockShox Judy TK R fork, alloy bar, 12-speed Shimano Deore drivetrain with MT200 brakes and SHL280S wheels equip this introduction to the carbon Twostroke.

Is this a good deal? Should I wait for black Friday to scope out other deals or would yoou guys jump on this if you were in the market for a high quality hard tail?

Thanks in advance!

Hey guys!

I am still riding my Canyon Torque 2018 AL 6. It a bombproof bike, no problems. Eve the small stuff I had the customer service was better than I thought. But now I'm kinda looking ahead and I'm toying in my head with a few options. Also I think the Canyon is a bit too short for me. It was an L back then but the reach of 460 or 480 is more of an M today. I'm 188 cm + long arms (former basketball player 😅)

The bigest problem is I don't know if I wanna stay on 27,5 or go on the 29er. A few options I'm considering are:

-Canyon Torque 29 -Commencal Clash 27,5

• Propaine Spindrift 29 or Mix
• the dark horse but a heafty price tag Transition Spire 29.

Trails here are steep, we have fireroad climbs but also I dont wanna feel bad about the bike bashing it in bikeparks in the summer.

So any thoughts?

Im trying to buy a my first fukl sus but the market around me is so inflated I cant find anything for under1000$ so i was just curious if ebay is a good idea or anyone selling one that can ship in the united states

Can someone help me with the brake pads rubbing against the rotor? I don’t think it’s bent it’s always rubbing. Also I tried thr alignment guide where you press the brakes and tighten them

I am looking for a hitchmount carrier platform like this, with pass through that I can click my bike rack into.

Unnecessary context: I just spent a fantastic weekend in my cabover camper in Moab camping on BLM land and riding all the sweet trails around there. It was ok because I was by myself but I want to go camping with the family and take a four people and two bikes on a bike rack. At that number of people I land up having big black plastic bins in the back of the camper and it's a huge pain to pull them in and out all the time. I would like to have those bins on a carrier of the back of the camper and then the bikes after that so I can take my family and stuff and bikes and go sheed

Hey y'all, my current suspension fork (Rockshox Judy TK coil for 29") broke and i need a replacement, any recommendations on forks around 200-300$?

I know this isn't about MTB riding, but I don't know where to put this. Anyway, when I try a wheelie, I usually get a few inches up and then straight back down. I don't really know what gear to be in, and I have no suspension either. I don't think I'm doing it right because I'm pulling my bars up and pedalling hard just as soon as I pull.

Im thinking about snagging a takeoff set on marketplace ('23 Enduro Expert), but they're XD and I need microspline- Easy swap or should I look for another set?

Also, for a newish wheelset with DHRII/Assegai's and cushcore front and rear, is $300 a good deal? Thx!

Just saw one on Ebay for 500€ but it's a model from 2015. Wpuld it still be worthy? I'm on trial period of a Rockrider ST900s, is it worth to switch considering the Rockrider is brandnew?

Thanks ♥️

Rockshox Pike RC metal knock sound

Hello everyone, i have a problem with my fork the problem is, when i push the fork in and pull it to me (lifting the front wheel), it will make a kinda metal like knocking sound, not every time but most of the times it does if i do it hard enough. The fork is set correct to my body weight
