Ya, should have just gone that route at first. Shes so damn excited to ride all the time, couldnt be happier.

Size Medium. Bought 11/18. GF upgraded to stumpy. Perfect condition, not a scratch on it. Converted to tubeless with orange seal. $1275 OBO https://www.specialized.com/us/en/fuse-comp-27-5/p/154363?color=235869-154363

GF picked up her new bike today. Dont think she was this happy when she met me. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Love his comment "there were 20-30 tracks, so why not" Jeez

Damn, looking at that gave me that sick feeling.

Is that from people recently?

Spandex is a HARD no. Haha

So this bike is brand new. Should I scrape that out? Aren't they supposed to come with st least 1? Edit, just saw s different chart. My 150 does not come with any.

I was checking volume spacers on my Fox rythym 34. There was none. Curious if this is what it's supposed to look like inside? Looks like a big wad of grease

Haha, I didnt mean to

I was just thinking about that video. I'm going to give flats a real chance. I am curious if my climbing ability will be hindered.

I'd help pay

Definitely going to check it out.

Thank you Greg. Appreciate that

I came across our Walnut video that Pedalmasher did the other day.

Do you guys by chance have any strava routes for this Meridian area

Didnt know that. Ya, I figured I would use them until I got used to getting in and out. Being off the bike for 8yrs had me a little worried about falling over. Haha

Curious, How many of you tried the multi release cleats? I swear its night and day different from crank brothers, Reg SPD's. Quick sideways motion and I'm out.

I was really surprised how easy it is to get out of the "multi release" cleats. You dont have to twist your heel like egg beaters, reg. SPD's. It's going to be a tough change IMO. I'm not used to lifting my foot, vs kicking it out to the side.

He was the drummer for Nirvana. Pretty cool dude, very talented Sorry, didnt see this was already mentioned

I'm not sure it was the shoes or the pins. Haha. I did order some five tens. I may lower the pins down a little.

Good idea. Honestly, a little scared of the pins. Was very cautious yesterday. I honestly didn't think it would have been harder to get off the flats than it is clipless. I'm guessing over the years the motion to release just gets engrained into your head. I'm going to at least give them a try. Going to get a pair of flat shoes and keep them on. Very curious how they will be climbing, techy sections.

So I just got back into riding. Started in Onza pedals then rode eggbeaters for years. Figured I'd try SPD's now with the multi release cleat. I also bought some Chester flats just because. Ok, so yesterday decided to install the flats and put on a new pair of Van's. Tooled around the neighborhood practicing manuals. Its was an interesting experience. These flats are sticky as hell. Riding flats isn't easy at all after spending all your time with clipless. I ate shit multiple times. Thing that screwed me up is with flats you have to lift foot, with SPD's ( at least with multi release cleats) you can just move your foot sideways. I'm really interested to see what riding flats are like. After yesterday it's going to be a complete redo of the motion required. Pretty damn funny laying on my backside. I've been reading about the pedaling innovations pedal. I wonder if what he is saying is true. I've always had the thought that clipless resulted in more power, better climbing ability. Seems that isn't the case after all.

Do they get emails regarding us often?

I got this one on sale for $499. I'm with you, love to smoke meat but want to do other things while doing it. Its been a great buy so far. Hopefully long term it holds up
