So I’ve been riding my new G1 for the last two to three weeks but lately the chain keeps slipping. (I’m new to biking) and today I noticed all this fish where my chain is and on my leg
Am I doing something wrong?
Looking to get into cycling for gravel and flat trails. I was gifted a Walmart gift card for a little over $100 so going to put it towards the Ozark Trail G1 but somethings I need help with.
I am leaning toward buying the bike already assembled considering I don't have the tools and hands ln experience to assemble it. I am not saying I can't get the tools and can't learn but figured for simplicity just buy the dang thing assembled. My concern is I see a lot of complaints about the derailleur. Is a guaranteed issue if I buy it built?
Secondly, as an entry level am I shooting myself in the foot by going with the drop bar? I am pretty active in general and don't think the position bad compared to the flat bar. Ultimately the goal is to ride long distance fast.
Going to order pedals and a new seat but any feedback would be appreciated ty
Seems like an amazing deal, am I missing something? This guy only sells bikes on marketplace and has 50+ 5 star reviews
Hey guys, I just got a new Poseidon x gen 3 and it came with a damaged derailleur hanger.
I haven’t even put the bike together and already the dang rear wheel won’t stay on because of the stripped mounting screws on this part and to make it worse, Poseidons site is sold out.
Does anyone know where I can purchase these online or in the socal area?
The wife and I both got ourselves some mountain bikes to start riding, got myself a mongoose switchback comp, already added different pedals and dual clamp handle bar grips, my wife has a lot of junk in the trunk so got her a larger seat, hers is a nishiki Colorado. I want to learn more and want to get more experience so I can ride down hill trails, my wife is ok with just mild gravel trails and paved trails.
It’s a V.2 size small even though I’m 5’10. I upgraded the cables, tires, slimed the tubes, and customized the color! I like the drive train on it and will use it until it poops out.
My flat bar has stayed mostly the same, that also has upgraded cables, tubes and tires and will be my bikepacking rig. This is my paved trail rider and distance trainer. I don’t do speed work because I’m in it for ultra/touring distances so I wanted to look and feel pretty lol.
Hello, I'm searching for buying a cheap bike. It doesn't matter in what condition it is. I need it to go to work and I need it just for the season. If anyone can help me, I'll be very thankful.
They are riding some pretty extreme trails, so you have to take your own terrain into account, but I think they do a great analysis of the pros and cons of these bikes.
It is too bad that the OZT FS.3 is sold out right now. They might have been better off with a Polygon for their full suspension and the OTR Pro as the Walmart representative.
I'm short (5'1") with an even tinier inseam (26") and I'm looking for some gravel/hybrid/fitness bike recommendations.
I know everyone in here is crazy about the Ozark Trail G.1 (and who wouldn't be) but the measurements given for the small frame seem too big. I know standover height isn't the end all be all for bikes but the small frame standover height is 2.3" higher than my inseam and I'm not sure if it'll work for me (It's also out of stock in that size in the Walmarts around me so I would have to ship it).
Any other short girlies out there with the G.1? If not do you have any other ideas? It's hard enough as it is trying to get a decent and cheap used bike around me much less one that fits me.
Whenever I ride I feel like there’s a lot of pressure on my hands which causes my palms to hurt after just a short ride. My saddle height is where it should be but I feel that my saddle angle should be a bit further up in the front, so I’m not sliding forward, putting all my weight on my hands. However, I am maxxed out on adjustment. This is as high as the post will allow it to be tilted in the front. Any suggestions?
Hello, this is my ozark trail fs.2 slalom. Im looking to upgrade the fork, but ive ran into some concerns. I see that the head tube is tapered. And when I took out the current fork i saw that the steerer tube is not tapered. So I was wondering if I can upgrade to a fork with a tapered head tube. But if I were going to what would I need to know , because I know that bearings and stuff comes into play. But like what should I know for specs on the fork and stuff.
Did some minor adjustments and rides smooth. Any recommendations on upgrades or accessories to get? Have some rockbros pedals I'm looking at as well as some mounts for my phone.
Hi, I want to get into biking and commuting to work and school mainly on roads and I’m just trying to find something used on marketplace. Is this bike worth it for $150? The description says brand new seat, tires, gear shifters, some scratches on the frame. Any advice would be appreciated?
This cheap gravel bike rides real well in the city, real fun.
No complaints over 1 month of riding.
I noticed that this bike was on sale from when I looked at the price a couple of days ago ($500) it seems to be the cheapest New road bike I could find other than the ozark trail gravel ($300) and Schwinn Phocus ($519)
