    Pond Springs elementary. My daughter learned to ride her bike on that blacktop. We live down the street. She’s on a Fairdale Macaroni now.

    Whats the weight on the Fairdale Macaroni? My almost 6yo needs a bigger bike. Shes 3"10  and 46lbs. Her current ride is a 14" Royalbaby Stargirl and she zips around on it. I like that Macaroni color though because my younger ones can abuse it as well when they're ready (3yo, 1yo)

     

    Top Considerations: 

    Specialized Riprock 20 (coaster)

    Fairdale Macaroni

    Craigslist deal

    Commencal Meta HT 20+ (lulzzz)

  2. Thanks Dale for working on the trails out there! Wish I had more free time to help out..

     

     I got out there this past Sunday and the jump line is really cool and easy enough for a squid like myself to practice on. The 6ft drop is a little above my pay grade unless there is a plan to build a landing for it before the berm.

     

    It was pretty sweet to ride from the YMCA, hit my favorite spots, ride to the church/SN and ride back to Brushy and end with nearly 24 miles. There were so many trails I wish I could have added in but didnt have the legs or time for it

  3. Schwalbe Magic Mary or Nobby Nic front and Nobby Nic or Rock Razor for rear are great combos. I also have a wheelset with a DHF 2.5 and Ardent 2.3 and it works well. I think the Magic Mary holds better when you lean the bike over.. 

    Jenson has the Vittoria Morsa and Mota on sale(29 version) I picked up a few to try on my harduro tail.

    Great race and event @Seths Pool!  
     

    Wish I could have done the last stage.  I was the guy who came up a hair short on the road gap on 8 Seconds and washed out on landing.  Got back to Austin and breathing was still hard AF so I got checked out and it turns out I have a broken lower right rib! First race, first rib break. I’ll be back to get the landing right. 

    Bummer about the rib man! I was the chucklehead that was riding with you in all the stages.

     

    Thanks @Seths Pool for a great event

  5. I liked Back 40 more than Slaughter Pen. Less people and there are new features and jumps(and jump lines) around the golf course and Euston Rd(i think). If you want more jumps and flow, stay in Bentonville. Coler is awesome.. Really, you can't go wrong any where up there. Unless, you're looking for technical trails... Ride Emma, Cat and other places round town and hit the black diamonds up there and you'll look like a biking god

  6. I did my own a while back and also rebuilt a lever. I would rather take them to a shop next go'round. If I recall correctly, the fitting in the Chinese kit I bought had too long of threads and I had to double up on o-rings. 

     

    I live in Pflugerville if you want some help still
