Nice! How’s it ride? How many miles you put on it today?


I just scheduled an appointment with a bike fitter this morning. I got a bum leg from an old motorcycle accident which resulted in my left leg being significantly shorter than the right along with a few other issues. Hoping he can get me dialed in with a nice fit. I figure on having this frame I’m on for a long time so i figure it’s worth the investment. Unfortunately the guy im going with is booked until june, but i heard he’s one of the best in our area for people with more serious physio problems like myslef.

Changed out to some new handlebars earlier this week too. My average speed went up afterwards :leon:

I did 104 miles today. The titanium frame is crazy smooth and comfortable. Yeah a good bike fit is invaluable.

Damn. I'm jealous as fukk. Only thing I can do is keep riding. It sucks cause we had major flooding and the majority of the trails are closed and ripped up. They are all supposed to be up and running next summer.

So it's like 15 miles I can ride before coming to a closed end. Or I can ride around a 7mi lake 15 times.

Damn 6 hour ride, that seat gotta be smooth as hell. My ass gets sore after 1.5 hrs lol
You'll have to get a good bike fit and find the seat that works best for you. That typically takes trial and error. You'll also need some good quality padded shorts.
