I would do a crap ton of research before de-restricting a new Giant. From what I've read it can end in motor replacement on your dime. No idea if there are success stories, but I'm not going to go there...

Well dang it... The past few days have either been a seriously sore back or crappy weather, but... yesterday I turned 68, and the weather was beautiful, and my back felt way better, so... I wanted to try riding my age in kms. Great idea, but ended with a crash, so came up a bit short. Oh well...

Nicely done mate!

I tried a pickleball net once... still have welts on my face from the balls...

Great to hear the new steed is working out so well, and I hope your tubeless experience is as good as mine has been!

As a guitar player, it never happens to me! No really!!!

Yesterday I went for a quick ride just to stay limber. Finding it easier to be in level 1 assist these days on flats, which is a good thing. You can feel the change in weather with slightly cooler temps, and visually it's starting to look like fall. Fun with crunchy leaves... Aha... it...

That was worth clearing up! Good on ya mate!

Hope it's an easy fix!

I've never needed anything in my kit except the battery air pump. And mostly it was used to help others...

Here's my kit. Has changed a little, but it all fits in my trunk bag under the seat. I can take care of any small puncture with the Lezyne bacon strips, and bigger ones with the Stan's Dart and spare sealant along with portable/fast/battery air pump... Added these as well... The bag on...

🤣 I've been using Stans regular. The presta valves let you use Stans small bottles on the road. Once a year I go to LBS and get a tune up and sealant replacement.

Regarding tubeless.. Methinks tire pressure plays a part. I run 30psi on my Conti Rubans. Those that run double/triple psi may not benefit as much? This is just an uneducated guess. It occurs to me that a lower psi tire has more of an opportunity to seal than a higher psi. Happy to be corrected.

Tubeless has been a life saver for me. Now... to qualify that I ride trails often, and around here the blackberry thorns are ubiquitous indeed. Have not had another flat for over 3 years. I ride on the road a lot too, so glass, metal shards etc. are always available. Yes, there are some...

First day of a couple of weeks off, yay! That said, my back has been killing me, and today was no exception. Weather looked good though, so I popped a couple of ibuprofen and let them sink in before heading out around 12:30pm for a Tour de Delta. The nice thing was that my riding position was...

I apologize for that.

Being a Canadian but born in America, I am gobsmacked that a Presidential choice is a failed, lying, twice impeached, 4 times indicted, 88+ count charges, known sex abuser, fraudster, bible grifting, multiple infidelity, chickenshit Trump. How in hell did we get here?o_O
