That's the only time I write about these things, unless otherwise indicated.

Just like IF and many types of diets, when people claim it doesn't work its typically because they weren't doing it right.

At the moment, I experimenting with Yohimbine HCL to determine if there's any truth to those many claims. I'm at the end of week 2 and I've already been able to defunct several popular youtuber claims about its effects and efficacy. I'm not sure if some people just have never actually tried the stuff or if they just explain it really badly.

In any event, if you're interested in anything more detailed on this supplement, stay tuned.

Is it tubeless? If not go tubeless.

Chain drops has nothing to do with shifting. It's when the trail gets ruff the chain slap will pop the chain off.
Looks like a 1x setup, if hes got a N/W chainring chain drop won't be an issue.

Well they got 5 stars from cyclingweekly review saying great for century rides. Were £100 when first sold.

Still £70 all over the place but wiggle got them for £37 currently.

Let us know how the meet goes man.
Ride it like you just stole it.

Ah gotcha. The guy said it's setup for tubeless but there're currently tubes in it. I've got a buddy that said he knows how to set it up tubeless for me though.

It's actually a 2x. Not gonna lie some of the lingo you guys are using looks like gibberish to me. I looked up N/W and apparently that's the teeth on the chainring alternate wide and narrow? I don't fully understand how that would help keep the chain on. But really there's no sense of me worrying about this yet until / unless this becomes a problem.

Thanks brahs

Yah it won't be a problem till you get faster on downhills. Chain drop sucks though go to peddle and end up over the bars.

Narrow wide just cuts the side to side play of the chain. I haven't dropped a chain in 2 years with it.

Hardtail 29'ers are the steeze. it's the bike I ride the most.

Here's mine

2. Giant contact SL switch 150mm travel dropper post for MTB.

Spent some coin on the seat post ($330 at the shop) but don't care because my $129 post only lasted 5 months lol.

Did my first "Real" trail ride on the defy today.. I definitely learned the hard way not to stand up and ride. LMAO

Still sketchy to have my wheels spin out as I'm climbing, but I had FUN!

I thought I was going to be OK with a quick release clamp & normal post - but after 1 ride on that setup, I stopped at the bike shop on the way home and grabbed that new dropper.

This one is way lighter/better quality than my previous.

Attempting a century tomorrow! It's going to be a long one! Hoping I'll be able to make it, saddle sores are REAL right now after 10 days straight.

Glad you like it! I may just need to install a dropper on my road bike!

Just cleaned my chain the old fashioned way -- elbow grease. No pressure cooker. Nice and sparkly.

Today took and impromptu jaunt to the tar pits. A mere 31 mile, not up to misc standards but 3/4 for a hybrid.
