    Aventure Fork Upgrade?

    I'm looking to upgrade as well. I'm a big guy, over 6 feet and close to 270 lbs. The stock for isn't great and I can easily bottom it out. I'm looking for something sturdier, made for heavier riders, and confirmed fit, preferably from a known brand. Any other suggestions?

    Flat Out Tire, Slime or the Dart System, Armor-Dilloz. What’s the best Tire Sealant?

    e-bikes for kids: buy or build?

    I need to set up my 4 year old with an e-bike of some sort. We live in an area with a lot of hills. While he is young and has energy, I cannot reasonably ask him to pedal up the hills at 2 mph as I zoom past him on my Aventure, even though I can barely do 10-12 mph climbing these hills with...

    Aventure Pedal Grounds Out On A Turn

    I just got an Aventure and can confirm this is a real issue. Coming from riding motorcycles, I'm used to leaning aggressively on turns. However, I found that even leaning slightly (at a roundabout, for example), causes the pedal to strike the ground. This is dangerous because if the strike is...
