kick-this Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 (edited) Hi mate welcome to TF! saracen mad, hmm. Nice bike to start on and learn all the basics. Few tips... 1. Find someone good that lives in your area (or near you) and ride with them, you will find it easier to learn! 2. Ride everyday. 3. Practice, Practice, Practice And most of all, Have Fun...

Simpson Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 i have a saracen mad 2 six the 1st things i would advise you to do is 1. New rear wheel if you want to progress past a static pedal hop 2. New chainring, had millions of trouble with chain suck and messed my frame 3. New chain, my 1 chain had loads of stiff links dont know bout yours 4. New brakes But this is longer term stuff dude it doesnt have to be done all at 1ce. Get a solid group of lads who are better at riding than you its vital. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
