Your brake levers should be rotated down. Especially the left one.

I find the right one comfy, but yes, the left one keeps coming loose and rotating around when I change gears. For some reason the bolt is not providing enough clamp force.

2012 trek fuel ex5 frame.
1x10 with rf narrow wide 32 and sram x9 rd and shifter saints pedals and xt hollow tech cranks. Fox rp23 rear shock and rockshox Reba front fork. Rockshox dropper post with wtb Silverado saddle Deore brakes with ice tech rotors Shimano Deore xt wheels Raceface atlas 50mm stem and 780 bars. The only thing stock is the frame, went from 31 pounds to 27 with pedals and dropper. Love this bike still, tried a 29er and sold it within 2 weeks, just didn't feel as playful/fun. http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i2...psiqi9kyac.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i2...psegew6boc.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i2...psri2vrfnz.jpg http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i2...ps4itesvdf.jpg |

How the heck do you remove that water bottle??? With the shock reservoir location, it looks like that bottle is locked in for the long run.

2013 Giant Talon 29er hard tail with an OEM budget fork and Easton EA70 XCT wheels running a tubeless setup. Love the bike, very capable... more capable than I am quite frankly. Would love a better fork but whatevers... :D

New to me 2008 Giant Reign 1. Perfect for the rocky, rough local terrain. I went from a rigid 90's Stumpjumper to this bike. What a difference!! |
^^ I'll bet - - nice! You on the OR side or the WA side? That looks like maybe White Salmon area?

new to the wild world of knobs, heres my noble steed:
http://www.pedalroom.com/p/surly-ecr...er-23857_2.jpg click it for the PR. it needs longer housing, blacker zipties, and the chain i actually bought for it, but it still rips. |
looks fun, welcome to the knobs.

My first bike - 1997 Gary Fisher Aquila... don't have a photo of it, but this is what it looked like. Mine came with Gray Bontrager tires.
http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...c/trailer2.jpg Here's one of what my '96 Montare looked like when I got it. I don't have a current pic of it either... but it's not much different looking. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...e/IMG_0598.jpg Here's what the GT looked like when my friend gave it to me... https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-M...609_115128.jpg and pretty much what it looks like now... (sorry didn't have a pic of it either.... I really need to get on the ball!) http://www.velovtt.com/annonces/imag...2009122003.jpg |

A beautiful river outside Leavensworth, WA. Later today an awesome section of the John Wayne Trail. Any day on the MTB is better than a day a work!!!

2002 Specialized Hardrock Pro hardtail setup for All Mountain
I raced Dual Slalom/Mountaincross and Rode some DH on it when it was new.(Big Bear/Mammoth Mtn, So . Cal) http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/h...pszhxfxkfe.jpg Shaun Palmer (His Devine Palmness) was my favorite pro rider when I was racing. Glad to see he's coming back. |
It's time for a Mullet. . . . . .
I picked this poor thing up at our local pawn shop. . . . Saddle down and pedals off for transport. . . . http://i583.photobucket.com/albums/s...pstfxyos1y.jpg This is definitely coming off. . . . . . http://i583.photobucket.com/albums/s...psobgwswfh.jpg I want to kill the idiot who did this. . . . http://i583.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps2mq3wrmf.jpg |
I can honestly say I've never seen a saddle, or saddle cover, like that. :lol: :thumb:

2 of 2 mtb builds this year. My take on a burlyish AM Hardtail that'll still pedal pretty well.
http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b3...ps6e9vorsk.jpg Gotta swap out the rear tire (slant six), it really blows on wet rocks and roots. I wasn't expecting it to be great on that stuff, but it was barely even serviceable. |
