Take a look at Microshift. I bought one for my singlespeed so that I could have gears when I travel. Microshift is compatible with Shimano cassettes. On Amazon you can get a brand new shifter and derailleur for $92: https://www.amazon.com/microSHIFT-Advent-Rear-Derailleur-Compatible/dp/B0CX47S75Y https://www.amazon.com/Microshift-Advent-Trail-Trigger-Shifter/dp/B08778S7T9 It's a tad clunkier than Shimano which tends to be pretty smooth, but overall I have been happy with them.

I'm looking for a Shimano 10spd shifter and derailleur, already have a cassette, preferably gently used or in take off condition.

Well... maybe I misinterpreted. No Electric Remote Dropper. 50% of my cable actuated dropper use is for stopping on flat ground with my short legs.

I'm there with you both.

@RedRider3141 So no dropper for you ? I thought I was the only one

I have to admit, I became a huge AXS fanboy after the first ride. Oh, yeah...I ride a 29/27.5 mullet.

I still dont use a dropper though

Hi all, we are in need of a few more volunteers to cleanup the greenbelt in 2 areas – just west of Mopac along the Northern Walnut Creek Trail and east of Mopac along the creek. We made a good start on the first area last month during Its My Park Day, but there are a couple of pockets we missed. Here’s the signup link if you’re interested. https://givepul.se/oylhrr Keep Austin Beautiful is sponsoring this event.

I am not sure if this will catch on but I thought 29ers were silly. I am large human being that is on a 515mm reach bike that is too small. Have to run 75mm rise bars to get the handlebars to a reasonable height for me. So maybe this makes sense for someone like me? At least a mullet option with a 29” rear. Maxxis is producing tires and rim manufacturers are making rims. Apparently 4 World Cup XC teams are testing this season according to Pinkbike.

How much rain can it take and still be in good enough shape for the ARR ride this Saturday? And are the RV sites affected by rain? We've got a spot for Friday night but everything is looking so iffy now I'm trying to decide what to do

not sure about this for average sized folks, but I can totally see this making sense for people who need XXXL frames.

The new road will allow easier access to other places to ride and connect up. Gotta find the silver lining I reckon .

Ninja won't reach equilibrium until the Toro Grande construction is complete. So, ride it while you can.

I feel like ninja is still 90% there. it is just broken in a few places. the hope is that the paved path legitimizes the area, and eventually we'll get even more trails...

Saturday I started at the YMCA- Snail, the new thing, Picnic over to the new paved path. Now I admit I was never very good at understanding most of Ninja but I had stayed away a while with the construction so I was even rustier. So I tried riding trail over there and found some but realized how much has been lost. Rode back to BCRT to the end where surprise there is a new road going in down there. Lots of changes over there.

Riding yesterday I saw a sign from the county at the top of the damn that that section will be closed the 25th through the 27th for some work

The Texas Madrones are popping!

Just a fad. Another way for the bike industry to separate money from people.

*sigh*

Added a new section to Litterbox. Wheel mileage from Trailhead to Trailhead read 17.7 miles. Ridership has been picking up. Over 300 riders have submitted the Annual Waiver so far this year. Trails are in great shape, despite the wind's efforts to drop dead fall, riders are letting us know and we're clearing debris. Update: on a more recent ride I included the "Race Loop" around the pond at the entrance and back up to the trailhead and wheel mileage shows 18.01 miles.

Not mine. I promise.

I DO NOT live in Kingsland.

Also, the purpose of the post was to let people know that you can add data in Open Street Maps that will then be added to RWGPS. I find this super useful b/c I connect through green spaces and other places where there is no connecting line in RWGPS, which means I have to draw the trail or line every time. Adding it to OSM means it'll always be on RWGPS.

I am not paying to use the app. I create the route in a browser on my PC then save and upload it. When I start and sync my Wahoo Roam, the route is there.
