I just went to the auto shop and bought some paint for my car's hubcaps and they asked me how old I was, they didn't card me though. I am over 18. That's sad that people inhale that garbage. Survival...

I think that's actually what's happening to the paint now. There's all these little chips missing and it looks like there's multiple layers of paint under them.

Do I just use automotive paints and...

Painting a bike

I was considering painting an old BMX bike. The current paint is completely ruined. The bike was found deserted and trashed and has been outside in the rain for a few years. Does anyone know what...

What size BMX wheels?

I've had many creaks in the past. Could be pedals, cranks, bottom brackets, seats, chain rings, chains, handlebars. etc. The worst: I just found some cracks in my swing arm. :(

What size BMX wheels?

A long time ago I found this deserted BMX bike with no wheels and some other trashed parts. In the past I tried putting on old wheels I had laying around but every time I ride the wheels pop out of...

Bad gear ratios? Two front chainrings wouldn't be so bad would they? I assume I would have to get some sort of new bottom bracket or something to line up the front rings with the rear cogs . Is a...

I have two Cannondales and love them but I've yet to spend less than $1300 on one. I remember seeing some tough Konas for lower prices though.

one or two chainrings, that is the question.

I've got an old '02 Cannondale Gemini 1000. It needs a bit of work, as I've been sort of ignoring it for a while. I am planning on getting a new set of chainrings, rear cogs, and a chain. Right now...

Opinions on tires/tire sizes

Howdy,

I've had a freeride bike for a long time. I've never done any extreme freeriding with it and probably used it more for urban stuff than in the woods. I've always had fairly knobby 26" x...

Ha, I'm in Seattle and saw that just the other day. I almost asked the guy about it when he stopped.

Yeah, I'm too cool for a helmet but I like to set a good example so I wear one anyways.
