Name is Jerry. Ive been riding BMX and some Downhill MTB over the last 7 years. Although I won't give up completely, these extreme sports have taken their toll on me so it's time to settle down. I just purchased an Orbea Orca frame and Fork and will be completing my build by the end of March to be ready for this season. I have worked at bike shops part time for the last 6 years so I have a good amount of experience in the industry.
I recently got a promotion at my job so the consequences of getting hurt riding BMX and MTB are a little bit more costly. Seems as though Road biking is my next journey!
Also, Mods, if this is in the wrong section, please move it. Thanks!
Hey Jerry welcome to the forum. I road mountain bikes my whole life as well and just recently switched to road cycling. I honestly didn't think it would be as much fun, but so far I think I enjoy it more. Good luck completing the build. I look forward to seeing pictures when it's finished.
