The ahead on my new mountain bike is too short, has 3 spacers. How can I increase the length further?

Replacing the current stem with a high rise stem or new handlebars with rise is the only thing you can do besides replacing the fork.

Longest Mountain Bike Wheelie Ever (short verison)

My longest mtb wheelie ever (short version)
06-10-2007
2.3km / 1.43 miles

saturday 6/10 was me and a friend out and training wheelies.

I riding on a Stratos SLT TC24 MTB Mountain bike it has a good balance point, but the most of the “trick” is the riders skills and balance ability.

I had training on this stunt in one year every day after school.

I love the challenge and the fear for falling backwards, it give me a nice adrenaline kick on the roads.

Hope you will enjoy my video and write a comment.

Thanks to all people there give me self-confidence.

Can I wear bike tights underneath the padded bike shorts?

Posted on 9th September 2008 by admin in mountain bike shorts

Does it looks funny? I am ridding mountain bike, and I don't want to get too much tan, so I am trying to cover up. Thanks
long tights..it's like a pants, but skined tight.

If you're wearing baggy bike shorts, I think it would look a bit awkward.

But bike tights underneath lycra / nylon padded shorts would look alright.

I'm a biker here in the Philippines, and being a tropical country, I encounter a lot of cyclist who wear bike tights to minimize sun exposure.

How long will my umm, girl parts, continue to hurt from riding my mountain bike?

Posted on 7th September 2008 by admin in mountain bike shorts

I've just began to cycle again. I had been running quite a bit and got injured. To stay strong, I have been riding my mountain bike @least 5 times a week for almost a month and in order to get a good workout, I ride or use a trainer for at least an hour at at time.
My crotch still hurts! I've been fitted for my bike, I've got the gel seat, nice bike shorts, I've done everything but that's what's ending my workout. How long does it take to toughen up?

some good answers here.

A definite on tilting the nose down, and swapping out the saddle. go to a bike store that will let you swap saddles until you get one you like- REI and Performance certainly do.

And find a shop that has a woman working there and swap data with her!

I agree with jasbo. If you ride a lot, a firm padded saddle will be more comfortable - gel saddles or covers will actually be worse. Your saddle must fit you well or it may always hurt. If you're just starting to ride you need time for you rear to become accustom to the saddle/riding. Padded baggies may be available - IDK though. You could wear standard padded shorts under neath though. Also, I find MTB trail riding easier on my butt that road riding. Maybe your sitting too much over rough terrain? I stand or at least unweight a lot in MTB riding opposed to road cycling.
