I started riding BMX free style a few years back but quickly realized my knees and back were becoming unhappy with the 20" lifestyle. Now i spend as much time as I can on the trails or the road. recently I started missing my job at the bike shop, being around bikes and bike people, and thus a new bike forums member was born.

I do. I ride the fuji roubaix acr 1.0. I pretty well kept it stock, although I did put on some FSA carbon bars. I was afraid the Mavic Aksiums were heavy but for the riding I'm doing (mostly base miles, the occasional interval ride) they're great. should I put my bikes in my profile? what's your preferred bike?

I have a Felt F-85 with 26,000 miles on it.
I am a slow road rider that does lots of miles.
