    I have a Park Tools bike stand, although they don’t make the one I have any longer. It’s perfect for my needs - similar to this one https://www.parktool.com/product/home-mechanic-repair-stand-pcs-9-3

    But I’m sure there are other ones out there as well that would work, may be even cheaper. But mine is super stable, and seems a bit beefier than what I linked above. Perhaps that’s just the photo though.

    You made the right call. The upper 1/3rd was SO torn up, you had a 50/50 chance of just totally yardsale-ing it. There were parts you could hardly walk down.

    whenever someone says you can't walk down, I'm always reminded of the IFHT films video part where the dude goes on a date and the narrator says, "you can't even walk down what she rides down"

    Hey Johnson! Thanks for the support dude. Good question: we did focus a lot on the material. Nobody likes to spend hard-earned money on a shitty quality garment

    The salmon color is Comfort Colors brand and very durable. 80% cotton/20% poly
    The grey color is a lighter but softer material

    See the attached photos and you can visualize the materials on the rolled-up sleeves

    I'm still looking for "Jess"... :rofl:

    Almost had it clinched a couple years ago. Shredder, cute dog, and her dad owned a brewery. But just didn't work out.

    lol.

    went out for a ride with a buddy one day (the day i bought those wheel from levie actually). hot girl on a carbon santa cruz calls out my friends name. they were talking for a bit then a guy comes up and introduces himself as her husband :/ guess the dude worked for sram and they had a few kids.

    we rode away and my friend told me he had a crush on her big time years ago but it didnt work out. oh well. he didnt want kids anyway

    Ha, there's a great thread going on in one of the Utah MTB Facebook pages right now, cuz some chick's trying to find the dude that cat-called her in the trailhead parking lot so she can slide in his DMs :rofl:

    Edit: Turns out it's one of Cody Kelley's riding bros she's looking for

    Cool, I like that it looks a little lighter weight! Let me confirm Jeff’s Tshirt size and I’ll PM you for an invoice.

    hey guys how reliable is pinkbike? I joined today and so I have zero credit there... because I saw the perfect bike. Not sure how trustworthy the site is and also messaged a guy asking if he would ship the bike if I paid for shipping.

    I joined because I was bike shopping and managed to stumble across the site with a bike that fits my price range and is actually a step up from the model I was planning on getting if I had to buy it new. Wasn't sure if you can get posts as easily when I looked around there so I didn't post. Uploaded a few photos and added some about me. really hoping the guy will take a chance and message back!

    Just offer to buy it using PayPal. Protects you and him from scamming one another. Don’t use the “gift” option.
