>>1119259That's what I do - lift off the seat during rough travel.. The seat comes with the bike of course. I bought another seat without a nose and a wider 'ass' to go with it for max comfort. The warranty is what I like. And it wasn't too expensive. I'm not a road racer or anything. I know there is better out there.
All my riding is to help alleviate my arthritis. Which cycling does really well. I have it bad in my ankles, knees, and lumbar. As the saying goes, motion is lotion, and its the truth.
Plus I wanted to support my local shop. The owner is decent and will do adjustments and installs and such for free. And I he shows you what he's doing so you can learn.
He even offered to show me good places to ride and invited me to ride with him to show me the ropes. Decent fella.
>>1119287Yeah, it works for what I need. Plus it does have decent parts, decent shimano and Bontrager parts. I feel like it's at least a step above a murray. Hell huffys at walmart are 150.00-250.00 without the warranty and service. What's another 250.00 ?
Yeah... with O.A. biking helps my body produce synovial fluid for my joints. Cycling
is low impact and the easiest way to stay fit and keep my joints from feeling like I need to amputate my limbs.
