  1. Just found this NG today and thought I'd introduce myself. My name's Darrin
    and I ride in Southern California 2-4 times a week. I'm 36 and this is my
    fourth year riding. My bike is a 2002 Trek Fuel 90 with Avid mechanical
    discs. I'm lovin' this bike, except the chain suck that sucks even though
    it's infrequent.

    Just finished riding Big Laguna Trail and Noble Canyon in East San Diego
    County today with a couple of friends. Loving the pain I'm feeling now.
    Sucks I have to work tomorrow...

    Peace.

    day off of exercise tomorrow.

    What type of cranks you got on that bike? Would they wouldn't be
    Bonti's, would they?

    Unless he's changed his stock setup, they are.

    (But I'll mention again that I haven't had chain suck issues on my old
    Fuel 90 or on my new Sugar, both of which have those cranks.)

    They were until I bent one like a pretzel in a crash. I had to do an
    emergency unbending with a large rock just so I could ride out. Replaced
    with Shimano XT cranks.

    At 26, I'm pretty young ...

    Anyway.

    Weds: 30 miles of jeep trail
    Thurs: 12 miles of biking
    Fri: ice hockey
    Sat: hiking
    Sun: mountain biking, ice hockey

    I believe I'm due for a rest. I might do some weight training if I'm
    feeling feisty.

    And now you're running the new chainrings with the old chain and getting
    chain suck. Am I close?

    Welcome. JD hates your bike! (You'll find out soon
    enough since you mentioned the F word) 🙂

    You know, I've seen a lot of people posting to various message boards that
    have this bike, so it may be more popular than I thought. I rarely see
    Fuels on the trail.

    That people who own Fuels leave them sit in their garage while they post on
    message boards all day? :-)
