Bike forum?
« on: December 25, 2018, 03:51:30 PM »
Is there a thread or subgroup regarding bikes that I can't find?  Or can someone recommend a bike forum, something where beginners can ask advice and learn stuff?  Just got a bike for the first time in about 30 years and would like to browse people's thought and opinions.

You could try this thread:

https://forum.mrmoneymustache.com/throw-down-the-gauntlet/start-biking-to-work-cycling-newbies-chat/

Or, perhaps reddit.  I'm sure there are plenty of options, though I don't frequent any of them.

As a side note outside of forums youtube has just about everything you'd ever need regarding bike repairs and maintenance. The Park Tool website and repair videos are especially good.

And one of these cheap tool kits will be enough for most normal bike maintenance and repairs:
