so i just put together my new bike and i have to have it tuned.
i was wondering if anyone on here wanted to make a couple bucks to show me how to tune it?
I love to support the local shops but i really would like to know how to tune it myself for the future.

Drive train is sram x7 9 speed
frame is voodoo wanga with sliding rear dropouts.


peace

mike

If you bring it to the first Fats meeting in March I'm sure you'd have tons of volunteers.

I would be happy to give you a how to on the tuning of your drive train. It is a service I offer at my bike shop in the off season. I call it "bicycle awareness" lessons/classes. Give the shop a call [(845) 679-2122 at Overlook Mountain Bicycles] if you think you might be interested. I can focus on any aspect of bicycle mechanics you might be interested in. It is great for me in the off season and people seem to really enjoy it. I agree it is important to suppoet your local bike shop!!, but it is also importatnt to understand the basic operations of your bicycle for safety and fun Very Happy
