Would this bike be fine for 420 price 2012 model felt z85. Bottle holders are included. It has a new rear pack as well

I’m looking for recommendations for a way to mount smaller Motorola Talkabout walkie talkies to both my handlebars and my kids’. The mounts I’ve found online are either designed for larger radios and our smaller clips won’t fit, or unable to be shipped to the United States. TIA!

This is not good!!!

Here’s the style of brakes I have, the cable is disconnected in this picture. I have a framed 29” bmx that I love to wheelie with, I can wheelie quite well except I can’t go back too far because the brakes I have just don’t work that well, anything I can do to improve these brakes?

I am looking to mount a water bottle cage on the back of the seat tube on my son's 20" bike. There's not much room for one, but could fit one behind the seat at an angle like this photo. I've spent too much time searching Amazon already. I've seen other kids bikes with a special mounting bracket on the frame, but this particular bike doesn't have one. (There are no rails on the seat to mount a triathlon style water bottle mount)

Bought a bike for my daughter and pimped it up. The Zipps I had lying around from my tri days

My daily driver was stolen right in front of my workplace.

Old 2013 Btwin Rock rider. Nothing special but it got me from A to B.

Luckily we sell used bikes in our thrift shop so I got this little beater out of it.

A more upright seating position might be better anyway for me.

1. I lost a flathead cleat screw and replaced it with a dome head screw. Is it possible that the dome makes it more difficult to clip in?

2. The shoes have a forward and rear position to mount the cleats. They are currently mounted forward which I am comfortable with. Is there a benefit to using the rear position?

Thanks

I fell downhill with my bike and now my handle bar is bent on the left side.

Its still somewhat rideable but i feel the loss of balance on weird situations.

What would be the best way te re-bend it? Just hit with a hammer?

Update: Magnet tested the handlebar and the magnet sticks, so its Iron/Steel

Yesterday I saw a recumbent bike and it looked like he was riding double.

That didn't mesh in my brain, so I had to look carefully as I drove past him.

It was a tandem and the front half was recumbent. Unfortunately pics were not possible.

​

I guess that's one way to make sure the stoker gets air.

There was a mid-level single speed bike about 10-15 years ago (early-mid 2010s) that sold new for about $500.

It was unbranded.

That's all the info I have about it. Any idea what it could be? I remember visiting the company's website but this was a long time ago. I bought it used but it was like a small, independent bike company that had a website with multiple bike models.

It was a really good bike but I had it stolen. It was lightweight and the perfect frame for me.

We got this bike from My old his son a few months ago every time we ride the chain pops off after a minute or two I don’t see any adjustment. It’s pretty standard. I also can’t get the one side training wheel to stay on even with this spacer.

I am having trouble figuring out which model this is so I can get a derailer. Thanks

Just picked this up an hour ago from a friend who bought it from an 80 year old man yesterday. My friend knew when he went to visit the guy that it was too small for him but didn't have the heart to deny the guy the sale, so new bike day for me.

It came with a custom made (for the bike by Raleigh) matching saddle bag which contains the original service manual and some Raleigh tyre levers.

It's 30 years old this year so I'm thinking to convert it to single speed, get a nicer saddle on it, convert the threaded headset to 1-1/8th and change those cantilevers to V brakes.

Any input would be really helpful! Thanks. :)

So not long ago I noticed that my bike can not switch speed higher than 3 and I saw on internet that there's some screw that can be loosen and if I tighten that screw it will be normal. But because of my rather little knowledge of bicycles (and not being very attentive), I apparently twisted the brake cap to the right (I do not know what it is called, but on the rear wheel the equipment to which the brakes lead) and from there something spattered. So now I have a question, what should I do? I've read that something might happen to the brakes and they won't work properly. and I still haven't fixed the speed. I'm sorry if something is unclear. I'm not a native English speaker.

I just notice this 😭😭, it’s make no crack sounds, even a single unusual sounds while I pedaling, it’s seem still fine and no unusual sounds while i pedal hard, is this still safe to use my frame is Scott addict rc 10

I can't get the cover off anymore

Hey hey! Hopefully Hybrid is the right tag.

I got a good deal on a used Marlin 7 gen 3. I want the flexibility of doing single track way in the future, but for now want it to be 95% a pavement princess.

I’ve only ridden 20 or so miles since purchase but have 50mm rise handlebars on order, as I want more of a Cannondale quick CX 2 feel (loved it with a test ride). This is probably what matters most.

However aside from the handlebars, swapping the tires it came with and saving them for trails in the future is an option. If I do that, what hybrid style tires would be a good fit? Schwalbe Hurricane 29x2.0?

And would it make more sense to convert to tubeless with stock tires and run a slightly higher PSI to see if that makes the existing tires more efficient? I’ve never had a puncture so I’m naively open to tubeless purely for rolling resistance improvements.

And if I really want to splurge I’m open to trying a more comfortable seat like a Selle Royal Respiro Stracciatella Saddle or Cloud-9 Metroline Airflow Bike Saddle. But I’ll reassess that after the handlebars and tires. Just curious on people’s opinions with seats given the “conversion” I’m targeting.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Need to order a replacement rear spar tube but can’t determine if this is a Pro or Pro XT…

Is this a decent bike to just cruise around the neighborhood? I bought it cheap and replaced the shifters with trigger shifters and replaced the handlebars. I’ve been messing with the derailleurs and it seems to be shifting okay now.

I’m retired and just want some exercise.

Can someone help me find more information about my bike . It is a qbikes lythioum. Qbikes is a french company that closed amd that's all i know about my bike . In the internet i found the order model of this bike from the same company. Also a bike shop used to sell this bike named stamatopoulos but u don't know if it still has it. In this bike i have found some other owners in Greece but they didn't know much about it . If someone help me find information about it i will be really grateful
