Morning,

I've finally got some time to start mountain biking again. I've got a 2007 Orange Crush h/t that has been in the garage for a couple of years whilst I've recovered from various rugby injuries.

I think it could probably do with a service, but not overly sure what it would need.

Also, I'm in dire need of some kit. Helmet, Gloves, Shorts and Shoes. Currently riding on flats but may look at Clips.

Any advice welcome.

R

Take the bike to your local bike shop for a service. Just ride on the pedals you've got for a while then decide if you want clips or not. Go to Decathlon any buy the kit you need.

Will the kit from Decathlon last? I know some bits are decent but don't necessarily want to have to buy stuff twice.

My stuff is lasting ok, cheap enough to buy twice anyway. Or scour the sales, seems to plenty of stuff around.
