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

We've been getting a lot accomplished on our new singletrack. We now have two sections of singletrack in the county. They still need some refinement but they are getting smoother with more riding. I think our biggest issue will be keeping horses off of it. We have signage coming in a week so that may help. I just got a seat rail mount for my GoPro so I tried it out yesterday on a video. It looks better than I expected it to.

Those Troy’s are built tough! That front triangle is super beefy, and plenty of stiffness.

Beefcake!

Def no on hanger and brakes. It’s just a flip of the “chip” and that’s all. I mean, it does change brake lever angles a bit so if you’re super finicky I guess you can change that...
Ever single bike I’ve had that offers the option have ended up staying in the “low” position. It’s just as much for the handling as the angles.

 

A little late but stoked I just found this thread. Good looking trucks and bikes in here!

 

Great looking set up for both rides!

 

Missoulan OP! Good to see. I'm from Bozeman.

 

Thats awesome! Do you still live in Bozeman? I'm really happy to be in Montana during all this..

Well I did the deed. I have a new Fuel Ex 8 on order. It should be here by next weekend. I’m pretty excited

 

Anybody ride dirt bikes/quads and want a extra riding jersey or two for cheap? I have both a Small and XL and would rather not throw them out. Maybe good if you ride with your kid or something. Guess they can also be used for mtb’ing too.

 

What are you filming on that is some nice quality!?

 

Gopro Hero 7 Black. It does a nice job with stabilization.

 

@Not_Sure Bike thread if you're interested.

 

Shot this on my GoPro8 I picked up a couple weeks ago. On your phone select 1080. Computer, make sure to select 4K. This camera is really amazing after the last one I had was the GoPro Session. Still trying to get the chest mount in better position.

Thanks!

 

Looks great! Also some fun looking trails. I currently have a session, but I might do the upgrade looking at some of these others.

 

I mount my camera upside down on the chest mount so I can angle it up correctly.

 

Ok I think this thread will appreciate this.

I tore down my old rotten shed today to prepare to rebuild it.




But...the reason for posting it here..

check out what I found out behind the shed!



And after a quick hit with the pressure washer..



I was so stoked to find this. It literally could have been any other sign but it was a bike. My fiancé says it’s a sign that I should’ve done the shed sooner but what does she know....

 

That’s the angle I use too.

I think i gotta get it pointed up a little bit more. But yeah, that park has some of the best stuff in NJ, thankfully its only 20 mins away. I was about to do the trade up program, but then i realized they are onsale for the same price as the trade in program discount so for $299.99 i said fuck it. Video Quality and stabilization is amazing.

Wow, Why have i never thought of that!? lol Thanks! Im gonna do that next time. I used to have all these little extension pieces but they went MIA

 

I usually buy off brand accessories but the GoPro “Chesty” mount is well worth the extra coin, much more stable and comfortable than the off brand.
