My bike project that I've been working on the past few days

have fun losing all your energy when you ride it on the road. What a joke.

Lmfao, you don't ride them on the road, there bikes for special purposes, BMX's are mainly for tricks, and dirtjumpes are for jumps involving dirt. If you don't understand what there used for, why call them a "joke".

the point of biking is for exercise anyway, right?
this isn't like
1980s or whatever, people don't do it for fun
same reason people don't let their kids just walk around the neighborhood all day
kinda sucks for people born anytime in the past decade or two

Eh, I use these bikes anyway for commuting, so I tend to want to have as much energy as possible while riding. Lets you go long distances without getting too tired.

I know what they're made for, I have one myself as well as the vintages, it's a Schwinn Graft. It's done me well down at the trails, I've gone downhill and general trailriding quite a lot.

[Superbot]

that's pretty forgetin' badass, man!

Well I like the "cow-horns" better than the default ones. The default ones make the bike unstable because you have to ride it weird like. My bike had strait across bars and it was the best bars I ever used because it.
A. Gave stability
B. Comfort
C. I didn't have to get into rape position to grab them
D. Easy break access.

That's really bad for your knees and muscles unless you stand up all the time

Damn boy! You riding high! Lower it so you don't like be like stretchy leg man or some stuff.

Holy forget you people just don't understand



The seat must be high enough for your leg to straighten with the pedal completely bottomed

That way you get full efficiency of your legs while riding

Honestly, if you haven't done this yet, try it and you WILL feel an amazing improvement

Low seats are only good for Cruisers Nothing.

I have a nice Fuji Mountain bike, but it's five years old and the shocks are completely locked up. Still fun to ride though.

I might get pictures later.

I used to have it at the bottom as well, but then one of my friends was like you need to have it higher and when i did it it was pretty rad.

[MackTheHunter]

I've removed the front derailleur due to it being a bitch about every gear I go into. It is now no longer a 10 speed, but a 5 speed. Way better imo.



Pretty much the final product. Cleaned, reworked, shabamalam.
