Fudge_Brownie Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Why are people delusional with used MTB prices? And while I don't know BMX or road prices, they seem to have the same problem."This bike's 15 years old, was midgrade then, has a real minor crack in the frame, upgraded superspecial handlebar. Missing a spoke or two. That's ok, been riding it for years like that. This bike was one of the greats in it's day! Paid $1600, still have receipt. Needs tune up. A steal at $950! Firm."

BurgerBob Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 High end MTBs are usually super expensive here because they're all mint. Not a fucking place to ride that in New Orleans (except down once paved roads). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurgerBob Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Found a sweet deal on Speedplay pedals/cleats. Currently running Look (but my shoes are compatible). Should I try them? Are they good for roadies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurgerBob Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Seriously, I've had a pilonidal cyst removed. That seat would excruciating to ride. I imagine it destroying the scar tissue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt b Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Even with a normal ass, that would be brutal. "Keep riders straight", actually, no..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
