That would be the alternative I guess. Forks are expensive. Yeah I'd new bike.

Bike shop just called me back. They pulled the bike from inventory and it was mis-labled. Frame is a Small, not a Large.
I have a Black and Orange 2017 model coming in it's place. Same price, but will take a week to ship from Spain.
Cassette upgraded to XT 11-46, cranks upgraded to XT M8000-B1 32t, Fork upgraded to a 2017 Fox Factory Float QR15x110 Boost instead of 100mm.

2008 RockShox Revelation 409 Dual Air fork with a fresh reseal
New 2015 Fox Float CTD rear shock
Full new 2015 Shimano SLX 2x10 shifters, crank, front and rear derailleurs, chain and cassette.
New 2015 Shimano SLX front and rear disc brakes and rotors
New DT Swiss XR331 tubeless wheelset on SRAM X9 hubs
New Schwalbe Nobby Nic tubeless tires
All the new parts have less than 500 miles on them since purchased in April-Sept this year. Easily over $2k in the bike.
I bought the bike new in 2010 and it sat from 2012-2015 with minimal miles. I think the frame and bearings might have 1,000 miles on it total.
I may want to swap out the SLX brakes for the Deore's that show up on the Orbea, doe.
I just weighed it. 26.2 lbs as it's pictured for a 5" FS XC rig.

The new bike will be here in 7-10 days. You're welcome to come and take it for a test ride with us, I've probably got some old flat pedals I can throw on it if you need them.

Mercer, Clayton (towards Six Flags), Rancocas Woods (it's 10 minutes from home) mainly right now while my legs come back. I used to ride Wiss a decent amount, and Gloucester County College a lot when I rode a lot from 99-2010Claudebernioux wrote:fledonfoot wrote:Bike shop just called me back.

I might have to take you up on that. I don't really have any gear so some pedals would be helpful, hah.fledonfoot wrote:The new bike will be here in 7-10 days. You're welcome to come and take it for a test ride with us, I've probably got some old flat pedals I can throw on it if you need them.

I'm glad I don't know anything about bikes. They're all the same to me. Too bad I can't be like that with cars ol:

All it took for me to out of bikes was learning how much they cost.
A bike with an actual engine doesn't cost any more than a slow ass sweat factory of a bicycle... fuuuck this pedal power shit.

I thought hipsters only have 1 gear?
I just got the cheapest 10 speed I could find on CL at the time, thinking that I'd start riding with the gf for fun/exercise. We rode like 5 times. Now I only take the bike with me to race tracks and use it as a pit bike.
I've concluded that riding on public roads is fucking TERRIFYING. Will never do again unless I have an engine and mirrors.
