  1. Thanks for all the info so far. I finally got a chance to air the tires and take it out for a ride. All the gears shift smoothly. Turns out it was bought new in 2008 and only ridden a couple of times because my grandpa is getting pretty old (he turns 86 in July).

  2. Gear? Depends on how much your are looking to ride/spend, but the standard padded MTB shorts, gloves and helmet. The padded shorts are life savers, you will thank me later if you ride a lot.

    I live close to uptown cycles so I'll probably swing by there in the next few days when I get back to clt. Figured the gloves and helmet were a given, but I'll look into the shorts as well. I've patched tubes before, but do not have a field kit. Any special items needed?

  3. So I got a free bike today from my grandpa. It's a trek 3700 without disc brakes. Not sure of the year, but I'd have to guess 2004 - 2010. I haven't looked up the serial number yet.

    I don't know much about this bike, other than it being an entry level light trail bike. This is perfect because I've been wanting to get into mountain biking for a while, but only had a late 80s / early 90s lotus road bike yo ride around on.

    Any advise would be awesome. Possible upgrades, gear, and beginners trail info is what I'm looking for.
