Anyone else a cyclist?

Im sure there is already a thread on here and since its warming up here in PA i thought i would see if there is any other serious cyclist on here or even not so serious lol

Currently I ride a specialized road bike dont have a picture on me since im at work but will post one tonight. Looking at build a mnt bike here soon another specialized of course.

 

Mtn bike? = get hydraulic disc brakes!!!!

 

I was thinking about it since im building from the frame up but idk from none aggressive riding if there really needed? lol

 

if ur not aggressive riding then you don't need to build you own bike lol.

I am just a really big fan for every day riding. They don't worry about being wet or icy or muddy. They are a billion times more powerful than their cantilever counterparts and just cooler looking too lol.

 

LOL very true on building but thats the fun part and looking much cooler and more stopping power im in . What brake company you reccomend? I have crane brakes on my road bike with spinergy xaero lite wheel set and all the other componets are FSA.

 

Juicy 3

I am running a 5 year old version of these on my old trek mtn bike which is nearly 10 yrs old and going strong!!!

I love these brakes!! Among the shortest pulls for the lever in the market - and I'm not sure if you have ever used hydraulic brakes on a bike - but it makes regular disc breaks feel like cantilever brakes - they are so much smoother and more responsive.

You would not regret them.

 

never used hydraulic brakes on a bike cause normally i dont need such strong braking power but Juicy is a sub division of sram im sure they are freaking sweet thanks for the info any pictures of your ride?

 

I don't think i have one handy right now . . . digging the bike out this week as a matter of fact!! Had to put the racks on the buru first so I can get them outta storage!!!

It's consolation for having to put the snowboard away every year - bring out another outdoor toy!!!

 

Sweet i have a subie also!! i need to buy a rack.

 

Thule over Yakima any day.

I bought a Yakima set and started to put it together and felt the sub-par build quality. Returned that crap and went right to my local bike shop and got a whole switchable rack system for snowboards/bikes/etc. Cost me nearly $500 - but totally worth it for a few grand in bikes to be secured to a real rack with a real tumbler lock on it.
