Well I just bit the bullet on some Continental Ruban tires. Went for the 29x2.3 variant as that was closest to the 29x2.4 Rekons I have on now. https://www.continental-tires.com/bicycle/tires/mountainbike-tires/ruban They are supposedly fast rolling on pavement with nice knobbies for grip in...

My Giant Stance E+2 has a rear shock with no lockout. Am considering getting an upgrade to a shock with lockout. What are the users of lockout capable shocks thinking? Worth it? Never use it? Whatcha got?

Check this out. Pretty much the same as 2021 but added fenders, rack and new controller...

EDC... and a new bike pump... Well here's the stuff that has found its way into the trunk bag over time... And here's the new guy. A Fumpa pump. Will do Presta or Schrader, up to 120psi. 0-100psi in 25 seconds (700x23c), and it'll do up to 6 tires on one charge. And here's the list of...

So I began thinking about muck and a bit of water getting into the battery connection area on my 2021 Stance E. Here is what I came up with... Connection spot near the bottom... Possible solution is a neoprene calf brace... Installed very easily, and sits nice and tight... Went...

Pedals... Rumour has it that the stock pedals on my new 2021 Stance E 29er are a POS. Many of the 3rd party pedals are a much slimmer design which looks a lot better to me. RaceFace, Rockbros, Ansjs, etc. Any preference regarding grip, longevity, or???

So I updated the app on my phone, and it turned my Fathom into this! 🤣 2021 Giant Stance E 2 Couldn't resist. These are like hen's teeth these days, and this was the last one! Had to pounce on it. 29" wheels are awesome. Rear shock is plush, love it! Air suspension front and rear...

An aluminum air fuel cell... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7592485/Father-eight-invents-electric-car-battery-drivers-1-500-miles-without-charging-it.html "The first is to manufacture for the Asian market some ‘tuk-tuks’ – the three-wheeler taxis used by the Duke and Duchess of...

What kind of bike racks do people like to use? I've been using trunk style racks for 20+ years. I like the idea that I can install and remove without modifying my vehicle. I also like that I can install it on other vehicles than mine. I just got my new Saris Bones EX 3 bike rack today, and it's...

I have a 2019 Giant Fathom E+2 which comes with "tubeless ready" rims and tires (Maxxis Forekaster). Interestingly the bike comes with tubes. I probably ride 60% road and 40% trail, and twice now my front has gone flat as a result of picking up thorns. Well to heck with that! So a couple of...

I didn't like putting my bike on the rack on my car because inevitably I'd be spraying lube, or cleaner on the paint sometimes. Enter the Park Tool PCS-10. Also, this gives much more access to more of the bike for cleaning/adjusting etc. Great clamping system Any angle you want And...

What are people using for work stands? I'm not enamoured with putting my bike up on the car rack. It works, but I get spray etc on the car.:mad: Have been looking at the Park Tool PCS10 https://www.parktool.com/product/home-mechanic-repair-stand-pcs-10?category=Portable Anybody have experience...

Locks... Paranoid or not? Choices: 1) No, don't care. I ride, then I come home. No worries. Bike is never out of sight. 2) Quick rides to the store, or a low crime area. All I need is a simple cable lock. 3) Had my bike stolen once, so I need quality protection. 4) I want the best, maybe...

New bike... flat tire... Presta valves... no adaptor... No ride:rolleyes: Whaaaaaa!!! Lol! Well... Dave learns a lesson. Dear Dave, Always check what tools you might need when getting a new bike. I had not seen Presta before, rats!

I just bought myself a new bike. It's a 2019 Giant Fathom E+ Upon showing it to people "in the know" I was introduced to the term "Dork disc", which refers to the plastic ring behind the cassette on the rear hub. It's there to hopefully stop the chain from tangling into the spokes and destroying...

Just got home tonight with my new (and first) e-bike. I'm 61 and was diagnosed with a blood clot last year so have gotten way out of shape. I was sick and tired of being sick and tired so now that I'm doing better, I figured why not try something I like (biking) but make it easier to get back...

Hi everyone, New guy here, and new to E-bikes. Just got back from my inaugural ride on a 2019 Giant Fathom E+ Looking forward to reading, learning, and posting here. Looks like a cool forum! I'll post a NBD (new bike day) in the Giant forum tonight. Right now... I've gotta ride some more, eh? :)...
