Featured Article:
Kids love adventures, and nothing else says Big Adventure like getting on your first set of wheels and venturing out into the world, even if you're only allowed to go around the block. For some parents, getting their child their first bicycle can be pretty unnerving. What if they get lost? What if they get into an accident and hurt themselves, or someone else? You don't want them to stay cooped up at home, but you don't want them going off on their own unsupervised either. We would like to introduce you to the beauty that is known as tagalong bicycles.
Tagalong bicycles are quite basically child-sized bicycles that are connected to adult bicycles, hence the name tag-along. This means that your kid can still enjoy exploring the outside world, and best of all, they get to spend quality bonding time with you as well! To save you from spending a whole day mulling about in the store, here are a few pointers you should know before you get one for your children.
What Every Tagalong Bicycle Should Have
In order to cater to children of all shapes and size, tagalong bicycles also come in either 20-inch or 24-inch diameters. All brands regardless of their price range should also come with the option of removing the tagalong for added convenience. Just like how you should never drive without a spare tyre in the boot of your car, you should also make sure that you always ride your tagalong bicycle with a spare tube and tools as well. Do remember that you probably need to carry two separate spare tyres as the tagalong bicycle will have a differing tyre size as compared to the adult bike.
Something To Consider Before You Connect the Tagalong to Your Bike
When tagging a child's bike to the parent bike, it's also important to consider the physical properties of the parental bike as well. Specifically, tagging a mountain bike would be better as opposed to the road bike because mountain bikes are able to withstand the constant pushing and pulling momentum caused by the tagalong. Take a good look at the parental seat post. A carbon seat post is much too lightweight to withstand the forces exerted by tagalong bicycles. We recommend that you attach the hitch to an aluminium seat post instead.

Thule 699 Bike Case Review
The case will mount to your existing Thule rack. Measuring 47 inches long by 30.5 inches wide by 10.5 inches tall, this case is made with sturdy polyethylene.
Thule 699 bike case features:
* Rugged polythene construction
* Suits both road bikes and all-terrain bikes
* Includes gear bags for instruments, apparel, and more
* Fastened with a tough strap system and wheels for easy treatment
* Measures 47 inches long by 30.5 inches wide by 10.5 inches tall
Thule 699 bike case will protect your bike from the fiercest handling that it will face-off. It's easy to use, and my standard road bike fits in well if you dispatch the wheels, pedals and handlebars.
The only trouble is that case weighs 33 lbs, and your bicycle weight can easily take that over the airways' 50 lb limit. Then, you not only pay for "oversize", you pay for "overweight". I beat this---just barely---by removing the seatpost/seat and pedals, and placing those in my carryon bag.
When you're bike costs more than your car (or you just give such high value and love), protect it when you travel with the Thule Round Trip Bicycle Travel Case. This padded hardshell case accommodates both road and mountain bikes, and its rugged construction holds up to the most careless baggage handlers. The case can be locked for added security, and Thule included small bags for tools, dirty clothes, and accessories. The Round Trip features a sturdy strapping system and has wheels for easy transport. You can even ship this bad boy UPS if you want to travel light.
The good: this is a robust case made of tough plastic, and certainly able to withstand air transport and handling. I flew from the east coast of the US to Australia, involving two changes, with no problems. The case contained a plastic separator and two foam pads to separate the wheels from the bike, and to keep the bike padded; two bags to contain tools, two chain protectors, two straps inside the case to hold the bike in place, 6 thick straps outside to close the case, and partly recessed wheels to make the case easy to move around. I also got plastic fork and chainstay separators from the bike shop for extra security when moving the bike, though the instructions claim this is not needed.

26 inch vs 29er - What are the pros and cons of each? Can you get a 29er Full Suspension Mountain Bike?
I have a bad back but am looking at strictly mountain bikes. My previous question the community chose a best answer and the Trek 620 is not a mountain bike. I am inclined to look more at full suspension but I want light weight as well so maybe a hardtail with a front shock and a thudbuster seatpost would work. I am currently riding a FUJI Tahoe SX but want to et something with Disc brakes as well...my old FUJI while a great bike is not disc compatible. My finances will allow for up to $1K for the bike. I will be riding mostly level desert type landscape with some small hilly sections, mildly technical singletrack and fire roads and trails. Please help me out. I have looked at Trek, Schwinn, GT, Mongoose, Specialized (My favorite but too expensive), Haro, FUJI...and Iron Horse. I have seen a couple of options that might work but need some input outside of the sales people who can be biased towards the product that they sell.
26 inch:
Pros:
Better acceleration
The wheels can be made stronger
There are more tire and rim options, etc...because 26" has been the standard for years, although 29er production has increased
Better cornering ability
Cons:
Less stable at high speeds
Not as much bump absorption
29 inch:
Pros:
Can roll over larger obstacles than a 26er because of a lower angle of attack
More stable at high speeds
According to a study by Pepperdine University Department of Sports Medicine, "larger circumference wheels improve mountain bike performance during climbing and cross-country riding, with no detrimental effect on cardiovascular (heart rate) or muscle function (power output). Superior momentum? I guess....
Cons:
The pros of the 26er except not.
Oh, and smaller riders might find it hard to find a bike that fits them.
It will be hard for you to find a good full suspension bike for a grand, let alone a 29er full suspension. Hard yes. Not impossible. MOST companies sell their full suspensions msrp for mucho dinero. Here's some examples of bikes that break that trend...

However, you'll always be able to get better components if you go to a hardtail. You could use a thudbuster on a hardtail, but don't think of it as a replacement for full-suspension. It's no where near as good as suspension in the frame.

Here's a 29er hardtail. I've yet to see any FS 29ers for less than 1000$, and I'm sure it would have bad components...
http://ibexbikes.com/Bikes/SEC-29-Details.html
The most important thing though, especially for you, is proper bike fit. If I were you and were going to buy a bike online, I'd go to the bike shop and test ride bikes until you find one that you like the feel of (be blindfolded, not literally blindfolded, just don't look at the components). Ask the manager to measure the top tube and stem length, or do it yourself. Then record the seattube height.
Take into account the cost it will be to build a bike that you buy online. The shop should do it, but they might charge a bit. By the way, there is a lot more that goes into building a bike than most people think.

NOTE from CultureGrrl : Last weekend, while my family gathered for CultureNiece 's wedding, CultureDaughter vanished for bridesmaid beautification rituals (hair, nails, whatever) and I tried to exploit those hours by demonstrating to her visiting boyfriend the joys of eventually living in the NYC area.
Thanks for visiting!
