  1. Hi,

    I am brand new to the mountain biking scene, I was wondering if someone could tell me what size
    allen wrench I need to remove, and then put back on the water bottle cage, thank you in advance,

    One has to wonder what other maintenance will be done on this bike.

    It would be advisable to go buy a small kit containing several sizes of metric hex keys. Cheaper
    than buying one at a time, and you usually get a nifty case. Try them all until one fits.

    You might want to look into obtaining some other basic tools.

    Smart-ass answer: whatever one fits.

    Sincere answer: whatever one fits.

    Steve, who told you that you need water? They were full of [censored]. Don't worry about putting the water
    bottle cage back on....it's useless anyway....

    heh, heh, heh.....

    The mind serves properly as a window glass rather than as a reflector, that is, the mind should give
    an immediate view instead of an interpretation of the world.
