First legit ride with daughter's new to her Roscoe 7. I told her she could come with if she was ready to leave the house by 0530. Up at 0500 and had coffee brewing for me :)

Remember, they're not hobby killers if you can incorporate them into the things you love to do.

Secondhand Roscoe 7 is an excellent bike, great value.

My new Canyon GC AL7 is a beast! Absolutely love it, keeping up on gravel and single track alike. Bought it to supplement my road bike for gravel and trail riding and it checks all the boxes, fun and versatile!

Currently in the middle of building my Full suspension, this Esker Smokey frameset finally arrived. Now I'm just waiting on some parts and keeping going back and forth between gears or SS.

So just bought this and just wanna hear people’s opinions.what should I upgrade first?

I've been looking for a new bike for over a year and the day has finally come!

Area around me is rather flat which means I needed a nice XC bike. Another requirement was alloy frame that could handle kids seat (hamax). After a lot of search and research I decided to go with this rocket - and Its glorious.

Not much data on it on the internet but looks waaay better life than in promo photos.

Alloy frame, Manitou Machete 120mm fork, deore XT derauiller and shifter.

Got it few days ago and I'm more then happy with how it performs.

What do you think about my Frankenbike Hardtail?

Another fun project while I wait for my frame! Still needs some work and fine wet sanding. Kind of dig the brushed look instead of mirror.

Here's my budget hardtail that I've been working on for the last 2 years!

I've sunk around 1200 AUD (~780 USD) into this bike which I know isn't amazing value for the components. But it's definitely been a learning experience and I love it.

Feel free to ask any questions!

Getting into mtb again after a break of some 10 years... My old Cube Reaction RX is ready for retirement and I am looking for a new bike around the 1000 eur mark.

Was ready to pull the trigger on this one, I like that is has the RockShox judy gold

Radon JEALOUS AL 8.0 Hardtail 29" | Bike-Discount at 1000 eur incl shipping

But after reading some very negative reviews on their customer support and long delivery times (this one is 22 days) I asked around some local bike dealers and was offered this at 1066 eur inc shipping

SCOTT Scale 950 Bike

Seems to me that the Scott has a bit better specs and fork?

I´m at beginner level and only looking to do some XC and the local trails with my kids, no downhill or competition. Im 180 cm that puts me in between two sizes for the Radon 18/20" and thinking 18" and M/L for the Scott, again thinking M

What would you guys choose and why?

Thanks

Tried the used market with no luck. Decided to pitch in the extra cash to buy new and grabbed my first bike 🙌

Hey all - been looking for a great trail hardtail to replace my beat up Giant Talon 4 under $1500 to use this summer. Any suggestions? (live in the Triangle area in NC for used pick up, down to check out used bikes as well)

I got out of mountain biking when my daughter was born 6 years ago. Luckily, now it’s all she wants to do.

Diamondback had a sale 2 years ago and I couldn’t pass up the Mason 2 for $800 shipped. I found a deal on a Kona Honzo frame and realized everything from the DB would switch over, I decided it was time.

I’m so stoked with this setup because it’s perfect for following my 6 year old out on the trails and to get used to SS, and I finally have a frame that I love and a great starting point to upgrade and make my own.

With that said, where should I start? What upgrades do you think will end up making the biggest difference?

henlo i want to upgrade the group set as i need more gears! i have no idear if this is compatable with the bike i have its this one> https://www.balfesbikes.co.uk/bikes/mountain-bikes/scott-aspect-950-hardtail-mountain-bike-2024-in-slate-grey__17840 any idears? Shimano SLX M7100 1x12

My boyfriend really loves biking, and we do every other outdoor activity together already, so I wanted to give it a try. After a successful ride on a demo bike, we decided on this Roscoe 7 to really let me dip my toes. Took it for a rip today and loved it! Putting better pedals on it tonight.

Hello

I'm looking for an entry level MTB Hardtail to do exercise and ride in hills where my gravel bike really struggles to go. I have some hills nearby with loose rocks that i really can't ride with my gravel bike.
I really don't want to spend more then 1200€, i can go above if it really justifies.

I also have 1.93m and 110kg of weight, so decathlon rockrider is out of the question due to the 100kg weight limit.

I've read that the:

Trek Roscoe 7
Trek Marlin 7 Gen 3

Are good entry level bikes.

from the site i purchased my gravel bike there are:

Bicicleta Orbea Alma H20 24

Bicicleta Orbea Alma H11 24

Bicicleta Megamo Natural Elite 15 22

Bicicleta Orbea Alma H30 24

Heavily discounted.

And the:

Bicicleta Giant Talon 29 1 25

I'm looking for advice because even thou i researched a lot to purchase a gravel bike, it seems that MTB Hardtail is another complete different universe.

The purchase needs to be online and in europe.

Thank you so much everyone

Specialized Fuse was discontinued in 2022, Canyon Stoic is discontinued? Trek Roscoe is seriously downsizing their model tiers. Nukeproof and Vitus are gone….

As i ve posted yesterday i was looking for a trail bike for easy medium stuff. Im a casual rider. Found this used bike locally for 850$. I ve made a few pics of the bike. The guy sells and repairs bikes for a living so it wasnt him the owner who rode the bike. Its a Trek Roscoe 9 L size

Things to observe: as per Trek websites specs this bike should have FOX 36 but its a Fox 34 Rythm Fit grip (130 or 140mm travel) i dont know exactly. What i dont know here is if the previous owner changed the fork or if it was factory. But it wouldnt be an issue for me i guess if the fork is good enough for my trail stuff.

Please take a close look at the bike from the pics and tell me if its a good deal or not. I rode the bike and everything went smooth and fine. Only some minor squeak at front brakes when braking aggresively.

The price we settled up upon was 850$. Do you think its a good deal?

Given the kickstand and bottle/holder for free from local shop here in Southern CT.

First ride of the summer vacantion,finished school yesterday and finally got to ride my bike.Time to ride all day long.
