I’m retired, I have three perfectly good bikes and to be honest, one would really do just fine for the riding I’m doing these days. South Kent School is a founding member kent bayside cruiser of the Housatonic Mountain Biking League (HMBL). The HMBL is composed of eight Western New England area schools that rotate hosting regular season and championship races.
I have both front and rear brakes with really good brake pads and I use them PLUS my legs to slow down and stop. I was worried about rabies so I went to the doc and got the shots. Four shots over fourteen days and the doctor said I’d be fine.
The two pictures above show my first cut at customisation. The mirror, the bell, the light, the yellow cable housing, the bar tape and the Jandd frame bag were all things I had in my bike shed. I really wanted to make the bike into a fixed gear, but it turned out the one thing I didn’t have in my parts stash was a fixed cog.
There’s a whole hell of a lot doctors don’t know. Know of a new mountain bike trail not listed here? The amount you can expect to receive in store credit when trading in your bike with a dealer. Since I’d gotten this bike for so little I wanted to keep that frugal trend going and see how little I could spend.
After graduating college, Anthony gained valuable coaching experience as the assistant coach for varsity soccer and basketball at The Ellis School in Pittsburgh, PA. Although this is his first time coaching mountain biking, Anthony appreciates the fearlessness and athleticism that the sport requires. He hopes to help expand the program to get more students involved while creating a culture that emphasizes hard work, confidence, and effort when taking to the trails. Anthony is originally from Ballston Spa, a town in Upstate New York near Saratoga Springs. He looks forward to being in the woods more often, exploring the great biking trails available in the School’s backyard, and taking on adventures (and big jumps) with the team. If you’ve ever had a job then you know that it can really cut into your day.
The HMBL races weekly throughout the fall with the league championship race as the culminating event after the regular season has concluded. In the spring season, the team focuses on skill building, fitness and endurance while riding Southern New England’s best trails. You shouldn’t have to mess with the coaster brake at all, other than make sure the reaction arm on the left hand side is still bolted on securely. So if you ordered more than one item on a single order and receive only a part of your item don’t worry, you will receive your other items shortly after.
Some indications of it being a good bicycle are that it has numerous reviews and is overall rated above-average. Also, unlike many bicycles and other products, I cannot find any problem trends from the reviews. The majority of low reviews did not indicate that the KZ2600 has any underlying problem. If you are curious about the Kent bike brand I will briefly go over Kent in the Appendix and introduce you to some of their other bikes. Solo travellers save 50% on the single supplement.

The Orp is an electronic horn & light combo that I used to think was too loud but given how distracted everybody is these days I’ve decided it is damn handy. Now things were really starting to come together. At the Goodwill store I found a perfect little blue bag for two dollars and I knew what to do with it, I made it into a handlebar bag. Steve’s gift cog came in the mail and I mounted it to the wheel using loctite. I’m not one of those hipster kid fixie riders who run no brakes and skid stop so the loctite should be sufficient.
