No, already went on several rides, but I'm coming from never having owned a real bike or had real fit, so anything feels much better than stuff from walmart. My closest to a real bike was from Bikes...

Going to have to trust my LBS then. They say the frame is the correct and it seems to fit fine. Time in the saddle and experience is probably what I need. Once it's spring again I plan to hit the...

I have 0 complaints. Hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, kayaking, she's there. And she isn't tagging along. She does her own skinning and can debone and pack out her own animals. She isn't great with...

Actually I had previously hunted with a Vizsla for 12 years. A couple weeks ago a tumor burst in his chest and we lost him. But he had a high quality of life up until his last day and I can't...

Nah, it's not like that. This is kinda our relationship. It's all in good fun and funds are shared. I stole her poodle as my hunting dog the last few trips out, worth about three grand. I needed...

This has happened with kayaks, hunting rifles, bikes and snake breeding projects. She tends to watch me go through the trial and error process then jump in and snag the rewards, lol.

Oh 100%. I love the fact that she's active and we do a lot of outdoor activities together. We both had crap bikes and the upgrade was worth it. I should have probably added a smiley. :)

No, I think I'm good until I learn what I want in a bike. Silly to upgrade before I know enough about the item to be able to actually tell a difference. Going from a 400 dollar bikes direct bike to...

First ride in, only 4 miles but it handled a lot better. On the downhill I used to ride my brakes on, I was able to peddle down for more speed with confidence. It's just a dirt road, but I think I...

Put on about 20 miles over the weekend, and got in some fishing and kayaking. My old mtn bike I topped out at 22mph coming down hill on the gravel feeling pretty safe, the new bike, I had to slow...

I don't know much about bikes. But it seems to me that the frame is a core component of the build. If that's compromized, the whole bike would be. Maybe keep the parts that are worth while and get...

Lol, I don't think I do the kind of riding that will need shocks. Honestly I think this bike will last me for a LONG time. I'm 43, I don't see myself getting into serious mtn biking in my late 40s,...

I will definitely try that, they are 700x45s I believe, whatever stock for the Verve 3 is. They are fairly smooth center with some grip on the outer edges, H5s I think is the model number.

Hello guys. I have not been on in forever. I got a bike that I did not enjoy and stopped riding for almost 5 or 6 years. Got busy, and by not enjoying riding, it just dropped off the radar. But I...
