All Things Bikes and Tacos! (...and every vehicle imaginable)

May be a little off topic, but what does everyone use for bike storage in the garage?

 

Nice ride!

Saw a Juggernaut in traffic yesterday, it looked... awkward..

Because someone didn't have enough rolling resistance in their life...

 

All my local go to trails are mudded out from the now we got. I don't like riding Corner Canyon when it's dark though. Ran into a mountain lion twice since I have moved here on those trails. No one's ever had an issue, but there's always a first time...

 

My regular fat bike is fun AF. Snow, in the dry, etc doesn't matter But that second front wheel seems...unnecessary

 

Yep, Dude looked like he was begging for someone to ask him about it..

 

Shoulder season on the rugged jeep roads is fun too. No muddy trails to ruin, and still a load of fun!

 

Still dust season here in California.

I must clean this thing up. Its 27 and snow-

I resisted fat bikes for along time. I thought there where dumb. Than I rode one! The most fun ever!

 

Anyone hear anything about the TRP DHR brake? Looking for a new set of stoppers, not loving the train stopping power of the Saint for the trail bike.
Looks like the dh lever/mc with a new caliper.

I'm curious to hear from others. TRP stuff has always been elusive and dream-bike status for me

Crazy to me how these boutique brands survive when I never see them in the wild. With that being said, Tektro OEM business may hold up their high-end stuff

 

One 2" x 4" piece of wood, a few 5" lag bolts, and some big black hooks. Home Depot for the win!

 

I have TRP Slate T4s and just sold my fatbike with TRP Spyke brakes on it. But true, I don't generally see someone with a set on the trail, though more and more bikes are specced with TRP brakes these days. Never considered them a boutique brand either, just a re branded Tektro brand for mid range and higher end. Maybe like Honda/Acura type of deal.

 

I do the same, some hooks actually from the ceiling as my basement ceiling is low and my 29-er won’t hang securely from the wall hooks I use for smaller bikes, as the rear tire hits the ground. Note that different brands of hooks have slightly different dimensions ... the ones I use are a tight squeeze on my 29x2.5 Minion but work great for the other bikes.

 

I actually use these hooks from Amazon, so my 27.5x3" and 29x3" plus bikes hang just fine:

I have to break my 6 week streak of cycling this weekend, and I'm really sad about it..
