People with multiple bikes, do you find that you only ride 1-2 of them 99% of the time?1yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
If you haven’t read this book, I highly recommend it. It’s been eye opening in a lot of ways.1yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
Girlfriend has been asking to ride with me so I raided the parts bin and came up with this1yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
Finished the build on my new 27.5 hardtail. First ride was this morning.4yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
My new grocery getter. $50 for 2 bikes, sold the other for $60 so I’m already profiting 😬4yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
I converted my single speed trek 930 back to geared. I went 2x9 and added a suspension corrected fork I painted as well as a Chris King headset. Now all that’s left is to decide what color flat pedals to get.4yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
Different fork so I can use the disc front wheel. Just ordered a ton of parts1yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
I think I’ll ride it like this for a while...and it is now tubeless 🥰2yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
The 930 frame given to me by a fellow xbiking member has been turned into this monstrosity3yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
I’ve come full circle. I’m selling my carbon hardtail to rock this for full time mtb duties.2yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
Love this Rockhopper. Can’t wait till I can install a 1x drivetrain to replace the clapped out 3x.2yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
It’s like this bike was made for drop bars. Large frame but super short reach means the drop bar conversion will be perfect 🤩2yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
My gravel build is looking better than ever. Tubeless conversion completed successfully on clincher rims3yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
Just finished the single speed conversion on this Trek 930. The tensioner is a jockey wheel bolted to a strip of aluminum bolted into the derailleur hanger.4yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
It always sucks when you really want a build to work out because it would be so cool, but it just doesn’t work.2yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
I feel like several of my bikes are always in a varying state of “mock-up”2yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
I’ve put down some miles on the build and I’m beyond happy with it. It became my main trail bike after the first few rides.4yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
Been really enjoying this bike lately. Sometimes it’s the cheap ones that get you2yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
Another free bike picked up today. Plans are new tires/tubes, v brakes/levers, new cables, rear derailleur, and grips.4yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
Just built a gravel bike on an 80s road frame but this has me thinking....already tested can fit 700x45s3yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/gravelcycling
My bridgestone gravel build in the snow. Debating swapping to flat curvy bars and using a 9 speed MTB groupset.3yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
Added a milk crate to my grocery getter along with the correct brake levers, trigger shifters, grips, and wider bars. The suspension seatpost is also no longer suspension after I shoved a long bolt in there. 😂4yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
Just picked up this lifted 3rd gen SR5 4x4 for a song. Needs steering rack, wheel bearings, rear main seal, cat conv, and ball joints.4yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/4Runner
Revisiting my polo days. Polo in north Texas is pretty much dead. Time to start something new!4yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/BIKEPOLO
Need modification ideas. Needs to be light, simple, and absolutely no drop bars 😂4yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
Decided I didn’t want to repaint this fork because I like the graphics, but I can’t figure out what frame colors would look good with this. Only thing I can think of is a cream/off white color. What’s does xbiking think??1yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
I rebuild bikes for customers and I just finished this build. Thought y’all might appreciate it 🥰4yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
Doing the Hotter’n Hell this weekend and got a puncture yesterday...wish me luck on this tubeless repair.2yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
New weekender chukkas with one application of leather cream. Is there anything I should do about these scuffs?1yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/RedWingShoes
Would this make a good drop bar 700c conversion or would I be better off converting an 80s steel road bike to 700c gravel?3yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
I’ve worked on lots of road bikes but never seen a downtube stop like this. What is this for?2yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/bikewrench
Just picked up this 1988 Rockhopper. I feel like this fork is bent. Am I wrong?3yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/RockHopper
For those of you interested in geometry. I just made a comparison chart between my 1993 Kona and a 2021 State All Road gravel bike3yr ⋅ OldSchoolWillie ⋅ r/xbiking
