same, it's a Maxxis tire which we all know runs small
What have you done to your bike today?

It's a downhill rim and stronger than I need given the weight. Think it weighs more that my fatbike wheels

Bet those treez will think twice before jumping out at you again.🤔

That's a good width for tight trails. My new bike arrived with 740mm bars, after a few rides I can tell you I had a lot more tree clearance but they were just too narrow. I swapped to a 760mm bar and it feels right on the money.

I was initially going to narrow down the bars on the Knolly to 780 or 760 but decided against it after realizing that I'm having the same amount of 'hits' with the narrower bars on the mariachis at 750...I never hit my fingers though
In preparation for Global Fat Bike day I thought it'd be a good idea to see if mine actually, you know, works? I noticed the cranks had some play which I'm not sure I ignored last year or is new business. Anyway, figured I'd pull them out and do a quick splooge of grease then deal with it after. Inexplicably I seem to have solved the problem, maybe they backed out a bit? Anyway, I'll take it.

Quality issues at home. After messing up the first tire direction, did the same with the rear and I even doubled checked. The bike was upsidedown at the time and the dyslexia took over from there...
Anyways, ready for winter bike service. But would like to straighten out a nasty hop in the rear wheel after flipping the tire.

I have two spots on my local trails that I routinely recover my bar end plugs, that's at 760mm. If I ever see one missing I know where to look.
Now thats a good one.
My son and I went to my local park to tool around on our new toys....This was supposed to be a xmas present, but he found it hanging in the garage...oh well.

Where did you get the porcupines? I've been willing to get a set since I saw them last year.
Awesome gift! But roll those bmx handlebars back please! Should be roughly inline with the fork
Maxxis makes it super simple. They want their model name on driveside (the picture side).

That's acceptable for a small kid, but straight vertical or a degree or two back if on a properly sized frame.
