    Suspension post is a $30 to $150 item. Not that big a deal. It is a great addition, I'm looking for one myself.

    What model floor pump are you using?

    There are low pressure pumps and high volume pumps. It seems to me that our tires are both. From reviews I'm looking at the classic Silca pump. Any suggestions?

    I just bought a Selle SMP Advant seat. The shape is terrific, it has a cup shape which distributes the pressure on your under carriage evenly, Much better than stock. However I did not get the gel version and I have to wear padded shorts for my 77 year old muscle free butt.

    I put a 2&1/2" extender on my stem and it's just about perfect. What seat do you have? From the photo it looks stock. I have to upgrade, stock isn't working for me. I'm looking at a Ergon Touring ST Core Prime Men's saddle. I haven't read any bad reviews about it. I can't get my personal date...

    I can't tell you how much time I've spent online researching bike seats. I'm going to call my LBS right now!

    My LBS sold me a L but I have some issues and think I should have been sold an XL. I really don't want to have a bigger and heavier Giant but, if I must, I must. My main problem is that the seat does not go back far enough. I need at least another inch. I'm 6'1", 165#, 35" sleeve length. What...

    What I really don't like about my Giant Explore E+4

    Oh, and the grips. While I really like the support that the D shaped wing provides, I do not like the teardrop cross section where your thumb grabs the grips. It rubs my thumbs right at the area next to the web of the thumb

    What I really don't like about my Giant Explore E+4

    Have the bike set up pretty well. Still three complaints, not enough set back for the seat and my left heel occasionally hits the chain stay. No solution to either. I guess I could buy a setback post but I want to get a suspension post and can't find any with additional setback. Third is lousy...

    Checking out the suspension seat posts I see a new problem: no real room to mount anything on the post such as a clamp for a water bottle holder and no room under the seat for a small seat bag. Both essential for me. Is there a way around these issues?
