Hi I've just got my first bike a Specialized pitch 650b just wondering what everyone on here thinks to the bike
Will be used for commuting and trials

I used to jump when I was younger but got a car and stopped now wish I hadn't

Is there anything anyone would change on the bike from experience ?

Cheers sam

    Welcomes.

    Nothing until it breaks or wears out apart from contact points and pedals perhaps.

    Welcome.

    I agree with chunkers or at least waiting till you've worked out which parts aren't doing what you'd like them to, then looking at replacing them.

    As a fellow newbie, pedals are a fairly common thing to change - I'm looking to change mine but I have a Decathlon Rockrider with small, bog standard pedals. If I didn't have clown feet that were twice as wide as the pedals, I wouldn't be bothering at this stage. I haven't done enough riding yet to know what does and doesn't work for me, so not too much point changing anything as it could cause more problems than it solves.

    Except my grips, I bought some orange ODI ones because they look great. Buying bits like that is down to your personal colour preferences! :mrgreen:
