The Fantom 29 thread

So I got this new Motobecane Fantom 29 hardtail mtb and I was finally able to get it out on the road yesterday and today. Hopefully our weather will be settling down and I can get it out to the park and the singletrack trails soon.



Yesterday I didn't have my Enduro 8 cyclocomputer configured, so I went to mapmyride.com and saw that I rode about 6.5 miles. It was around 8:45 a.m. and it was dreary and drizzly. When I got home my left hand was a little numb and tingly, but otherwise I felt great.

This afternoon I went out for a ride and did about 2 miles more, the weather was mostly sunny and hot. When I got home, my hand wasn't tingling. I don't know if the cyclocomputer is configured correctly, it says I road 6.5 miles today, but I know I rode over 8.5. It said my top speed was 19.1 mph, but I don't know if i can trust that. I need to figure out why my front disc brake keeps singing to me. They are my first disc brakes on a bike, they are Avid BB5 BallBearing Mechanical Disc with 185mm rotors.
