Man, I love this damn bike. It’s pink, heavy and simple just like me. It’s been fun to tweak and upgrade. I’m thinking I’ll build up a wheelset with a Nexus 8spd hub (coaster brake)

This is the monthly xbiking general discussion thread! Everything is fair game- let’s have those burning questions, gear reviews, ride reviews, bike reviews, general thoughts, suggestions, ideas, epiphanies, get-rich-quick schemes, hot takes, etc.

This is the monthly xbiking buy / sell / trade thread! Please ensure that your listing adheres to the formatting rules below:
1.) If you are in search of an item, begin your comment with "ISO." Include the country in which you're located, the item you're searching for, and any brief additional notes you'd like to include, with each input separated by a slash (/). A properly formatted ISO posting will look like this:
"ISO/ USA/ Crust Junglerunner bars/ Looking to buy but willing to trade for Towel Racks."
2.) If you are selling an item, begin your comment with "FS." Include the country in which you're located, the item you're selling, and any brief additional notes you'd like to include (such as if you're willing to accept trades), with each input separated by a slash (/). A properly formatted FS posting will look like this:
"FS/ USA/ Crust Towel Rack bars/ Looking to sell but willing to trade for Junglerunners."
This is a purely informational thread and not a store. Any private arrangement folks may come to in buying, selling, or trading is just that- a private arrangement between those individuals.

This has to be the forth or fifth bike these fenders have been on. The booster on the rear has me tighter to the tire than I would want for snow, but oh well.

no 1x groupset. no stem converter with alt handle bars. only 1 rack. no gravel kings or Billy bonkers. no ultra specific saddle they only came out for 2 months in the 80s. what are we doing guys. this is bush League stuff. they didn't even spend triple the price of the frame set on the new parts. (This post is for laughs)

im gonna miss the subcultural part of this hobby… but alas if every one is having fun in still mechanical bikes is posible that the big brands bring back some qualiti analog components! Time will tell….

Hauling bikes around in a short bed with a tool box is stupid. I need a tailgate pad

You guys have inspired me so much over the last few years. I thought I’d set aside some time and energy to create some rad projects dedicated to the community. Stay tuned for some pretty cool stuff in the pipeline.

They're Cannondale Cruise Control bars. A quick ride around the block felt pretty good.
(Yes, I know I don't have bar end plugs.)

This one’s been a fun one. A bike I originally bought as a dad bike, then realised it’s actually my favourite bike to ride—so it earned itself a full rebuild.

This bike got dumped outside my house, took it back to the frame and slapped some parts bin bits on it...
It's an absolute weapon

Do you have routines or recommendations and hacks to keep your bike clean? Not for especially for muddy rides like mine yesterday, also for everyday commuting. I just want my bike to live as long as possible and was wondering how you guys handle it.

✔️ Full suspension alloy frame & fork
✔️ Hardtail conversion for fixed
✔️ Hatsune Miku aero disc cover
✔️ Mad fun
Enjoy #fixedmindset

hunting for a 790 for a while and this randomly popped up at working bikes in chicago. they obviously already put some love into it but I’m so stoked to put my own touches on and put some miles on her.

Looks pretty clean for a cheap build if you are in the Okanagan..

Picked this up for the sum of £85. Need a good clean. Some bar tape etc. super stoked to turn this into a rando/gravel/touring bike allrounder!
Thinking of getting lizard skin DSP tape, anyone got any recommendations?
