    Bike shop stole my money.

    So I'm new to bikes (not biking) but wrenching on bikes. My headset and that whole area was really loose so I took it into my LBS and they told me, "normally we just loosen the stem bolts and tighten the top bolt." The guy did that and said it was still pretty loose and told me that it was...

    Ultimate setup for bb7 lever feel / power

    Do cables really make that much of a difference in your stopping power? Cause my back break literally does next to nothing to slow me down. If I just got better quality cables would that solve my problem? or at least part of it? Oh, and sorry to budge in with my own problems :poster_oops:

    Riding and Wild Animals

    last week I came within 5 feet of smashing into a deer. And then 20-25 feet down the trail I almost hit the same one again. And I guess a lot of people in my area have close encounters with turkeys. Never heard of anyone actually hitting anything though.

    How to Talk to Women, part 1 (a primer for shop employees)

    Don't work in a shoe store, unless it's a high-end fancy schmancy designer one...I worked at one for 2 yrs. Learned a lot of useless info and it was boring and low paying. Anyway, as said before. I agree this should go for men also, I am a little overweight and wanted to start biking again...
