Maxxis Ardent EXO 29 x 2.4 black Rubber with knobby thingies. Tire works real good in any conditions I throw at it. Wears really well. I’d buy another.
What makes a jersey a mtb specific one? Sounds Kinda like an overpriced wicking shirt with no pockets.?♂️
for trail center DH carrying a single bottle in a pocket is no biggie. You won’t need to carry much else at those kinda places.
Jersey pocket. Most jerseys have 3. Use the center pocket for the bottle. In my 3 pockets I carry a spare tube, tool pack, phone, snacks, and a bottle. Fortunately my BMC has a cage and room for another large bottle. Gels are good but not without water.
24 miles in the rain this am. Nice n cool. Got an old trail cleaned up of all blowdowns. And rode/figured out how to link/loop up some new (To me) stuff.
I ride in Maine. A mix of everything including 4 months of snow cover and spring mud season. When I lube I just put a tiny drop on every chain/pin connection, never drizzling the lube on the chain over the cassette while rotating the cranks. After over 20 years as a bike mechanic and shop...
2300 miles, Still on original cassette, on 3rd chain with less than .50 wear. 1st 2 chains I replaced at .75 wear. I never clean my chains, i just lube sparingly. Enough lube to run smoothly/quietly, not too much as to attract lots of dirt and mud. 11 speed slx drivetrain.
Huh? Well based on my reading here and elsewhere, the E8000 has the least complaint/issues reported. 4 year old technology that apparently works better than much newer tech. Brose needs the customer support because the product plain sucks. As far as reliability goes.
