If you’re having to put way too much effort in going from gear to gear, then consider replacing your cable and housing. First step is to get a derailleur cable and housing. Most bike shops sell a cable for about $3-$10 (depending on brand and type). Housing is around $2.00 per foot. Best thing to…

First step is to loosen the pinch bolts on the side. Turn it counter clock wise. An easy rule to remember is, “Lefty Loosey, Righty Tighty.” Then tighten the bolt on the top cap clock wise. But make sure you don’t ever tighten it or else it will compress the bearings making it hard to…
Ha! And you thought we were all done talking about Interbike, huh? We’ve got more! We promised we would make up the lost days to you. So here you go! Zoic is another great company I ran into an Interbike. Pretty amazing and unique actually. Check this out: Zoic offers fabrics in their collections that…
I had this up a little while ago, but since our server went down, the pictures went with hit. Here they are again. Also, we have some prices seen at University Cyclery for the bikes. Prices have been updated. Tim Rutledge of SBS has sent us the actual MSRP for the Redline Mountain Bike Lineup.…

As you all know we do have a Brews Day category where our very own Lance Lowry goes into great detail to talk about the beer of the week. I love his articles because it’s always interesting and makes me want to try something new. For as long as I could remember, mountain biking and…
One of my biggest pet peeves would be people that like to size me up based on the bike I’m riding. I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but I don’t ride mainstream bikes such as Trek, Santa Cruz, Gary Fisher and the like. No, I ride or have ridden brands like Woodstock Bikes, Ibex, and…
