During Interbike 2012, we had a meeting with Airborne Bikes Brand Manager, Jeremy Mudd about all the great things that are being planned for 2013. One of the things he mentioned was the new Goblin and he had gladly offered us a bike to test out. Fast forward to the Fall, we received this… The…
The title was in reference to Burt ReynoldSS again…yep. It’s back because last night during our ride, I dropped the chain 7 times! The zip tie method does work…up to a certain point. The problem I had was there was still a bit of play on my chain line and every time I hit a…
Here’s the most recent upgrade on Burt, it’s a red chain. In my previous article, I mentioned that I’d go with a gold theme. But I realized, I had plenty of red on the components that it made more sense to go with that color. My previous chain broke, so here’s what I got to…
Yesterday during my lunch ride I decided to take Burt ReynoldSS out for it’s maiden voyage. I was pretty excited about since it’s been a while since I’ve ridden a single speed. But during my climbs the chain was skipping. Ugh…I thought I had addressed that issue by placing the rear cog further out and…
The reason why I came up with the name Burt Reynolds is simply this…the Redline D600 color scheme totally reminded me of the Trans Am in the movie Smokey and the Bandit. Ya I know we just announced a new tandem bike project on the site, but this one is something I needed to get…
This summer in Orange County, Enduro Stuff held a series of four races in the local country parks, entitle OC Parks Tour, starting at Aliso & Wood Canyons Park, then Santiago Oaks Regional Park, O’Neill Regional Park, and ending at Caspers Wilderness Park. I had not raced any other races put on by Enduro Stuff…
We’ve had the Airborne Goblin for a few weeks now and I wanted to provide our handsome as well as the ugly readers an update on how this bike is holding up. Mind you, our formal review will be up soon, and this update is to give you taste on what’s been going on with…
Technically we didn’t ride for 5 hours, it was more like 2.5, but I did drink a bottle of 5 Hour Energy and I was so energized! Love that stuff, way better than Monster, Rockstar and all that jazz. By the way, I have to warn you that this is going to be photo-intensive. If…
A few months ago, I turned one of my mountain bikes into a commuter. Yeah, I know. It’s kinda embarrassing. But I had a bike available, and WTB sent over their Freedom Cruz 29er tires for review, so I felt obligated. For the full review, head on over to BikeCommuters.com – but in short, these…
Just recently we took delivery of the brand spankin’ new Airborne Goblin 29er. Right out of the box. So what makes this Goblin different from the previous model? Here’s what they have to say: FRAME: Tapered HT with increased rear wheel mud clearance, increased standover clearance on the 16″ frame-size. Tapered Reba RL fork with…
