Obstacles on the Trail

Mountain bike trail experience

• Riding through the mountain bike trail and having issues with the controller can cause problems.
• The derailer of the bike might need some maintenance after this ride since it has been making clanky noises.

“Power through cuz if you mess up your controller well you’re going to have some issues if I had some buddies and they were like hey let’s you know let’s take these big bikes out on some Trails I would 100% give somebody this one to ride with me I do have a feeling that this uh derailer is going to need a little love once I get done with this cuz we have been clanky clanking”
