I see you got the bike. Nice we should go riding again. If only it stopped raining on my days off lol :hmmm:

You got PM

I have the paragon myself and it has been pretty awesome. With my skills its been through plenty of crashes. Not to mention my first impression of the bike is of how much lighter it is than it actually looks. I can let you take it for a quick spin sometime if you'd like.

I may be reading this wrong but from the sounds of it your cable tension is off. And if your limit screws are adjusted properly and its not shifting to the smallest cog then it sounds like its too tight. Another thing to look out for is if your cable tension is fine but your derailer or hanger...

http://www.jensonusa.com/store/product/CG279B02-E13+Drs+Alloy+Guide.aspx You mean something like this? I know E 13 makes some pretty good stuff.

Looking used is a good idea. By the way the Fisher bikes you were looking at have custom offset forks so if you switch them with regular forks own the road its going to throw your handling off a bit.

If its that old you may have trouble finding a suspension fork. There should be a one inch headtube so you may have to do some digging to find a fork to match that.

Ah ok sometimes you dont even have to replace it just lube it up real good and sometimes you can work out the stiff links as long as the chain isnt too far gone. And if thats the case all youll need is a tensioner and a bashguard and youll be set

hmm if you replace the chain theres a good chance your cassette will need replacing as well but seeing as theres less than 100 miles on it I doubt it. Is there any particular reason the chain is going to have to be replaced seems to be pretty quickly.

Did you replace the middle chainring or chain or anything of the nature recently? It could be that the chaiinring is worn out and the chain cant sit on it anymore properly. You can kinda see if thats the case by looking at the teeth if theyre really sharp and pointy then its all worn out. I'd...

I'm pretty sure the bottom bracket on the Superfly is a press fit. Theyre pretty much like those that have been pretty much standard on bmx bikes these past few years from what I've been told.

I have shimano m520s I believe they are. They were recommended to me and they're fairly cheap but are pretty darn indestructible for the most part.

I alternate between the two and for now I mostly use platforms cause I'm still learning and once I get better and not crash as much I'll probably ride clipless since I tend find myself in a gear or two higher than normal while clipped in

Yea riding on loose spokes is jut asking for trouble bring the wheel into a bike shop and they should be able to tension it up for you at at the very worst it should only take like a day or 2

My brother runs Deore hydraulics on his bike and hes pretty happy with them so far. No rubbing or any problems at all yet. They retail at about $100 each and were easy to set up, come prebled, and have a little dial for reach adjust. I have Elixir 5 but they get noisy fast and kinda tend to...

Beginner as well and I pretty much alternate between those 3 parks. If you wanna ride sometime just shoot me a message or something.

I'm a beginner as well and always looking for people to ride with. Just shoot me a message if ya wanna ride.

Hey there and welcome to the site. I'm nearby and go to Mercer every now and then as well. If you ever want to ride together let me know.

I'd think that it'd make the biggest difference to shave weight off of certain areas as opposed to just anywhere on the bike. If it was me I'd start with the wheels.

I assume that on the fork the 1 1/8 part would be where you clamp the stem on and the 1 1/2 is at the base of the steer tube so you should be fine.
