A KHS Lucky 7 that is! Our good friends from KHS Bicycles have given us a Lucky 7 to review and race. The Lucky Seven happens to be the KHS Factory Team weapon of choice for the Fontana Series, they choose this bike because of the infamous “wall”. The Lucky 7 comes with a 36/24t…

As the subject of being a newbie came up this week. I dug through some archives of the days that Moe, myself and a handful of guys we ride with started a little riding club called TEAM ZOOM. We were weekend warriors that thought the Fullerton Loop was a difficult trail. Well, when you’re a…
Pricepoint.com is definitely a site you should be checking out as often as possible. Not only do they have great deals on parts they also have giveaways all the time. This time pricepoint.com is giving away a Sette Ace! The Sette Ace is a slice & dice XC machine that is valued at over $2,300…
Each rider has their limits on what they can do. When you come across a certain portion of the trail do you dismount because its too scary, technical or perhaps you dropped your cajones further back on the trail to execute the task? Do you steer away from rock gardens? Log crossings? Jumps… What ever…
If you think our sites are slow…well it is. Our server is getting some major upgrades like Wigometers, Colonspinchtner, Dodge Ram, Softdrive and an A.S.S. doohickey.

” I’ve been riding and racing with the Serfas Krest 9r tires since November. I initially installed these tires on my KHS Solo One 29er for training purposes. Well, I was really impressed with the tires that I decided to install the front tire on my KHS Flagstaff 29er and race SuperD with it. Why…
As many of you know, we recently added the Sette Razzo frame to our lineup of bikes here at mtnbikeriders.com WCH. The Sette Razzo was built up as a SS. I have to admit, I was, and still am, very tentative about riding a single speed. I probably got that way due to all the…
Priscilla and I went out for a quick early Sunday morning ride at the Fullerton Loop. For some odd reason, Sundays is a popular day for newbies to ride the trail. I’m not sure how it is in other parts of the country, but for Fullerton, that’s when they come out to ride. As we…
