save your knees, cycle instead, man i have to get back into cycling but it's like 20k ride to work and i'm crawling out of bed these days. I have two bikes a mountain and a road - the road one needs knew wheels, so I ride the mountain bike - it is enjoyable if you're in shape.

ROFL! I have a french friend here in Poland and he is an amateur cyclist, wasn't good enough to turn pro, but he does compete on the amateur circuit. Anyways, I think that cycling can be a decent training method, depending upon your goals. What exactly are you wanting to accomplish with your "cycling" endeavors, ma man?

lol nothing special really...I do it just for recreation and as a tool to help me stay in shape..

I love cycling.
My biggest rides were South to North across the state of Oregon, and from San Diego to Yuma AZ.
I didn't have a car for a long time and I just rode my bike everywhere. Even if I do have a car i'll ride my bike for short trips and for fun.
I have a lot of respect for people who get off their lazy ass and ride somewhere instead of driving.

What model do you have?
I have a shitty mountain...Im going to invest around 700$ for a good one.

just build your own dont be a fag and pay too much
just reinforce a cheaper moutain bike with a soldering too and or nuts and bolts for a true falcon bike

In the US I have a 2004 Hardrock Sport in storage. Worth about $500 new. Great lightweight offroad bike. That's what I used for my long distance trips.
Over here I just ride a piece of shit I bought for 150 bucks.
500 or 600 is enough to get an awesome bike. Any more than that and your not getting too much more value for your money in my opinion.

Thats great.
Im thinking of investing into a "giant" I heard theyre pretty good bikes.
-
I was in your position 2 months ago. I wanted to spend around 700 on a good mountian bike. I ended up getting a trek fisher marlin 29er. Its a great bike the new 29 inch wheels make all the difference. You should go check one out.

I have a Trek hybrid. It's great for road and trails. The trails can either be paved or gravel or dirt, so it works well for everything.
-
I do both cycling and mountainbiking for cardio. I have 4 bikes. :)

That looks a little lightweight for the type of riding I do, but it's hard to tell. :-\
Mine is similar to this

Raced BMX (bicycle motocross) as a kid. Deveolped much of my back and legs from it. Currently have 5 bikes. Vintage 1977 Schwinn Stingray. Spooky Cycles Metalhead. Sinister DNA (just bought). Vintage 1982 CW 26"Cruiser. Sold my road bike but will buy another soon.
200lbs and 5'10"
Riding is great and much better on your knees.
-
Honestly , I'm thinking about getting back into it , i haven't rode my bike in over 20 years .
i believe it'll need a tune up .
Schwinn : 18 speed racing bike .
-
For 700$ range I'd go hard tail specialized or ghost. You'll get a damn good bike for your money. I hit black runs on mine twice a week nothing beats a morning out on the bike. 1 hour uphill climb then 5 mins professional downhill.
-
I'm into bicycling.
I've been racing for almost 20 years now. (track, road, mtb endurance, road time trials)

Definitely go to a locally owned outfitter whose employees 'walk the walk'. They will make sure you get the right bike for your riding style and set you up correctly. They should also have a service department. No need to get under or over-sold. You can get A LOT of bike for $700. Mine was under $450 a few years ago and does everything I need. Then, with a few accessories, I probably spent around $700. ie: rack, computer, bag, etc.
-

i wouldve paid good money to watch a 14 year old black kid beat you up and take your bike, while you tried to get him to let you suck his dick.

Make sure you get the right kind of bike seat... I read that apparently the wrong kind will cut off blood supply to the dick 'n' balls and leave you with limp dick and lower your sperm count... no idea what the right kind is.
-
I've done extended cycle tours on my Cannondale across Europe and Oz.
Hoping to do the TransAmerica in the next two years..Stick my tent on the back and hit the road.

Yes, thats true..make sure you invest to a good soft seat. The first thing I bought along with the bike was a seat...or my prostate would scream.

Sorry guys but all those bike pics look like something you buy in Walmart. You should be looking at aluminum alloy frames at least. Rock shock or fox shocks. Sram mech or xtr hydraulic disk brakes. These old style bikes won't last 2 minutes with a fully grown adult on them, they are made for kids. List of approved manufactures. Giant kona specialized marin Orange carrera cannondale la Pierre

And seats selle Italia

I was reading Automobile Magazine when i wrote that. They had a article about how the car world and bicycle world merge...Mclaren and Specialized teamed up to build a 18k carbon-fiber race bike, but they also sell a $8,800 "street" version, the S-Works Venge
But the artcile continued about how disc brakes and hydraulic suspension are now found on bikes, and paddle shift tranny...I found this all surprising...I have a 80s vintage BMX bike hanging in my parents garage
