the black trails here are pretty solid! || Cloquet, MN
Pine Valley Mountain Bike Trails in Cloquet, Minnesota I imagine gets overlooked as a place to check out with Duluth being so close. I'd say it is worth the stop for sure! This can be a great quick loop, It is easy to put an hour in and hit all of the trails. They have two black trails that offer some solid drops and jumps. The maps online are tough to read and trailforks does not match up so I hope this video helps you navigate this place!

This three trail system is not much but enough elevation for some fun. Their are many miles of cross country ski trails that are frequently mowed for summer bike ...

These Tires Rip! | Best Budget MTB Tire | American Classic Vulcanite Quick Review

Don't get me wrong the expensive tires out on the market are great but its just rubber right? There has to be some better options out there that perform similarly and don't hurt the wallet. Look no further than the American Classic MTB Tires. I had low expectations for these and just needed some new tires on my hardtail so I can keep it up and running. I found these online in their Enduro Casin...

    Nice bike w a smart spec. I like my Deore brakes on my 2023 Rocky Instinct C30. I have been running SRAM brakes for years simply bc they came spec'd on my past bikes. I have to give Shimano the edge. Going to XT brakes will save a few grams but not change the performance much. Happy trails and enjoy the new bike.

    • @BackwoodsBlakeMTB
      @BackwoodsBlakeMTB 3 месяца назад

      Thank you! Yeah I’ve really been enjoying the deore brakes I wish they had a little more modulation but know you sometimes lose the bite. I have sram on my winter fat bike so haven’t used them at high speeds but I’d say I agree the edge for sure goes to Shimano. Thanks for the tip on the XT’s and thank you for watching the vid! Happy trails to you as well!

      @johndef5075 3 месяца назад

      ​@BackwoodsBlakeMTB i have 2 bikes. I with Deore brakes and one with xt 4 pistons. The Deore is a nice brake but like you I think it could use more modulation. The XT is noticeably better. Way more modulation and power. And none of the supposed wandering bite point. Nice and firm. Best brakes Ive ever used easily. Using organic pads on both for comparison.

My Stumpjumper has SRAM G2 brakes and they have more modulation but always felt ambiguous when they would firm up and bite. Neither are expensive brakes, but I prefer the Shimanos.

    Great frame and super nice wheel set. I have i35mm rims and always use CushCore. IMHO it’s a must for having a set up to push your bike to its limits. My friend bought that same frame. I will do a review of his set up soon. As for Shimano brakes and drive. I think that’s solid. If I were to go with higher end brakes then I would go Hayes or Hope.

    • @BackwoodsBlakeMTB
      @BackwoodsBlakeMTB 3 месяца назад

      Hey thank you!!!! I wrestled for about two days trying to get a Vitorria airliner in the rear rim. Ended up braking a tire lever! I gave up haha and will risk it for now. I agree with you though having a liner is nice especially for cornering giving the tire alittle more sidewall strength. So far I’ve been happy with these 35mm rims with a 2.4 DD tires seems pretty solid but might need to pick up Cush core down the road. Ive heard great things about the Hayes and they look clean I might need to give them a shot. Thanks for the suggestion!

      @@BackwoodsBlakeMTB after installing tire inserts a few times you will find your technique. Wider tires are a bit easier. 2.4” is a tight fit, perhaps an XC CushCore or something similar from other brands. I use CushCore and Rimpact but want to try the new Victoria inserts

    So nice! I've just fitted the PNW Range bars on my Marino hardtail and they are incredible. It's crazy how much of a difference a couple of degrees backsweep makes, and they are great at damping trail chatter. I think you've spent money in all the right places here. Absolutely nothing wrong with Deore and SLX parts, it's all good shit

    I like most of this trail system but it is rutted and sandy in some spots. That gap jump I've never attempted because it's always overgrown and you really need to pedal to clear it properly. The area is a little sketch too. Didn't know about the breakins. I usually park at the recreation center. Seems like the safest bet, but not positive.
