Have you seen this? Crazy backwards pedals with basically a shoe grip on the surface instead of metal dpikes

I could imagine this might actually work with the right shoe. These are very thick though, and totally flat. I prefer a little concave myself. No price either but Look generally means $$$.

looks good, until mud. I would love a set for my kids- lots of traction with sneakers and they likely won't see mud or rain.

Yes, zero mud clearance… They were next to the other ‘alternative’ pedals, Ye olds one sided spuds etc…

Good morning, friends! I am hopeful that today's work day will be a little less hectic than yesterday. Nothing bad...just a constant barrage of work coming at me. With any luck, I can clock out a little early and do some pedaling.

Understaffed at work today. So I will have to work a greater proportion of the day in order to depart at the usual hour

Here. Just did a quick fork, wheels, bar swap from Haley's bike over to the ASR to see if it fits yet. Still at least one season out, maybe two. I did find a Transition Ripcord for sale for a really good price, close to too good. Asked for a picture of the serial number, as a specific picture that isn't on his existing for sale add and haven't heard back yet. I think I just skirted a scam.

I watched the head honcho walk out of the building with his backpack before lunch and he just cancelled the meeting that I have with him at 2:30. Wooooooot, perhaps I can leave earlier for extra MOAR biking.

The pink one is mine. :D
I'll give you that part. :rofl:

I was getting a chuckle because if I do end up getting a kid's FS bike, her current bike has a super light build kit. I'll likely swap it almost entirely over to the new frame. So I'll have a mirror, but heavier of her current bike left over. I give her old bikes to the girls across the street until they need larger bikes and they give them back. A hand me down cycle that allows me to keep these bikes for Hannah but get them riding and enjoying nice bikes. The older sister already has a Mongoose FS bike that is a POS out of the box. That means the younger one, who's ready to up-size would get a dope 24" mtn hardtail. The older one is a bit bitchy (for a 10y/o) and treats her sister pretty bad. She was super condescending when she got her Mongoose vs. the Trek BMX I built up for Haley (!?) the younger has. I would only laugh inside when I roll a scaled down adult HT over for the younger sister.

your kids are gonna have to clear our your hoard when you're older
If you look at the quiver, I think most are small:
Strider, 12, 16, 20, 24, xs 26" frame. Then my roadie, Enduro, 26" beater HT, and 4x. DJ and Tri are on their way out. Wifey has her 26" mtb.
