My OOP expense after my sears giftcard was about HALF of what that bike cost. I realize that’s a good deal and all, but for what I am using for it just doesn’t matter. If I come back in here and post about eating shit because the fork broke off, you can say I told you so, but until then it just doesn’t matter to me and would not be money well spent. ---

I will be picking up a road bike soon. I barely used my mountain bike this year, but now that I live closer to the city I will probably use a bike like this more. ---

I need to pick up a decent road bike for this next year. Any recommendations? The one Newman posted looks nice and priced decent, but how a fan of the cow print. ---

Look for a used road bike, that is the way to go. So many people buy brand new bikes to try out the sport and realize it’s a good amount of work to get faster, and never ride the bike more then a few times and then it sits until they try to sell it. You will get so much more bike for your money buying used. As for reccomendations-I’m a total Cannondale CAAD9 nut swinger. ---

[https://youtu.be/x-sfPuRyASw](https://youtu.be/x-sfPuRyASw) This would be cool in buffalo. 2 months of the year… I hope to try and ride on at least one non-paved bike trail this summer ☹ ---

Denver has a killer bmx scene, and with the local shop Pusher BMX being a chill spot to hangout I’ve really got back into riding. I regret selling my bike to Big E, who then sold it to Jam but it’s all good because I just bought a new frame and it’s fucking tits. 21.125" Fit mac frame :bigtup: ![http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7056/6860175373_77165b84a1_b.jpg](http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7056/6860175373_77165b84a1_b.jpg) ---

jesus, after riding a 26" DJ bike all summer a 20" seems way too small. I rode someones in the fall and at first I thought it was a 16" kids bike. ---

Meh to each his own I guess, I don’t see the need for a DJ bike with all the frame choices and bar heights available in the BMX world. Plus you don’t look like a boner riding all the sick parks here in Colorado lol ---

I’m not saying one is better than the other, I just felt like an idiot riding a 20". I actually just gave a friend my old Haro Flair, that thing was a tank for sure. ---

That’s a pretty shitty reason, you probably look like just as big of an idiot jumping curbs on a DJ bike. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/bicycle-crew-post-your-ride/159415.md?page=10) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/bicycle-crew-post-your-ride/159415.md?page=12)
