I did a course in Business management years ago and the rule no.1 was always charge the maximum figure people will pay.

I still think these things should be a legal requirement.

I spose everyone is different. A road riding mate has a carbon fibre saddle that cost a fortune and has a Kleenex tissue for padding yet he goes for 5 hour rides on it. My motorcycle had a big, plush seat but after 30m it started growing teeth so I bought a hard aftermarket seat, it's night...

My old Specialized HT still gets ridden a lot on gravels and trails. It's stock seat was crap, I bought a better 'Fabric' seat but after 30m on a rough road it would also start getting uncomfortable. Ended up buying a soft touring seat. Went out last night with a mate for a 20k ride and the...

I always used SPD clipless on my gravel bikes (when I had gravel bikes) but since getting my first mtb as a kid in the 90s I've always just worn sneakers. I'd crash too much if I was wearing clipless. .

F it, I've glued it up, take it for a test ride tomorrow evening, yolo..

Brand new tyre, only done 25k, go through a rock garden and notice this after I get home.. No leaks but is there anyway to glue or repair it? Or play it safe and chuck it..?

I loathe haggling in person. Selling my wife's mountain bike last year, asking $700, women messages me, asks a few questions then said the bike sounds perfect and she will buy it. Comes around that evening with her dad, inspects bike, says it's good then asks if I'll take $400, I say I thought...

Not sure if this belongs here but my riding mate wanted a full face helmet, he saw a Troy Lee downhill lid, 'new, boxed, unused' on marketplace in his size. $150 less than retail. He organised a visit to the sellers house. He said the guy selling it opens the door and gives him the helmet box to...

Last month about 8.30pm I was riding my XC bike through a local scrub forest, in the middle there is a big plantation of pine trees, I think it's called 'The Magic Forest'. I stopped for a drink and a breather, I looked in the middle vacant area, there were about 6 schoolgirls sitting in a...

Bought it from Mitcham Cycles. I think they had one left at that price.

I bought it, fucking liking it as well=) I thought you had to charge them everytime you ride them but after the initial charge and 3 20k rides through the trails it's still on 60% battery. I feel using boost mode is cheating though..

I'm sure 80% of Australians couldn't find Denmark on the map even if it was on fire..

Good thing they are not really part of Australia.
