Quad bikes are designed for off-road use only. They have special low pressure tyres which are not road legal. Most bikes have a fixed back axle, which makes them unsuitable for cornering on hard surfaces. The factory supplied lighting kits do not conform with the Road Traffic Act. From a comfort and vehicle safety standpoint, the ATV must meet certain vehicle harmonic requirements. The answer, therefore, is no .... in almost all circumstances.

Our ATV License Plate Kit does not make your ATV street legal. Some states do allow ATV's to be used on the road when outfitted with the proper equipment. However, the ATV License Plate Kit is for displaying your off- road registration decal and/or assigned numbers on the back of your ATV.

Press the roll button (PC: End PSX: Circle) and left or right to leave the vehicle in this direction.

ATV (All Terrain Vehicle) is the general term used to describe a vehicle designed for off-road use. This could include quad bikes, Landrovers, Argo-Cats etc. Quad bikes are the sit-astride four wheel bikes with handlebars. The farming community tends to call them ATVs, while the forestry calls them ATCs (All Terrain Cycles). Leisure users tend to use the term Quad Bike. We use the term interchangeably!

Unfortunately we are unable to offer this at the moment, but may look into opening up a separate course in the future.

Generally, any bike- a road bike, a mountain bike, a hybrid- can be used in a triathlon. In fact, some courses (many turns, lot's of climbs and descents, are slightly better suited for a classic road bike. However, the bike-leg of a triathlon is basically a time trial. You want to go as fast as you can, using as little energy as possible. A triathlon frame has slightly different geometry.

We see more and more hybrids every year. My personal opinion is that BRAG is easier if you use a road bike with skinny tires because it has less road resistance. And road bikes tend to be lighter weight than fat-tire bikes. Those with mountain bikes may want to put slicks on their bikes. You will never ride alone on BRAG. There will always be someone riding at or near your pace.

Yes, no problem. You will find the ride improved, by putting slick tyres on your mountain bike however. Another area that would benefit you is to buy some pedals that you clip in to. Our sponsor Martin at Don Valley Cycles can offer advice here if need be . [Back] More expensive bikes benefit from being lighter, which means they are easier to ride uphill, but ultimately it doesn’t matter how expensive a bike is, as long as it’s well maintained.

Yes, you should drain the shipping oil from the engine and replace it with 4-stroke motorcycle oil. (4 stroke engines only)

The Duckworth Quadrangle, better known as the 'Quad', is a large grassy space in the center of campus. During U1 Orientation the Quad is hub of activity and excitement! You can come to the Quad for assistance and directions or to participate in fun activities. Enjoy the entertainment, see some great local bands, and even win some great prizes along the way!

Mountain bikes have fatter tires, which are not as highly inflated, to give you better traction on dirt.

It's played indoors on a modified basketball court by individuals with some loss of function in three or four limbs.

You bet! There are many nice smooth roads around Blue Mound State Park. It's a beautiful area to bike in. Have fun!

Most people ride hybrid or mountain bikes on these trails. They both work fine, especially with conservative tires, for example semi-slick tires. A road or touring bike equipped with slightly knobby tires will also work well. However, a road bike with slick skinny racing tires isn't really suitable for this trip. More details.

Answer: Familiarize yourself with the Performance Advantages and the answer will become more evident. Suspension has substantial benefits on both rough and "smooth" terrain; otherwise other performance wheeled vehicles (cars, motorcycles...) wouldn't use it. Answer 1: Softride has cut a lot of weight off their bikes in the past few years. A Classic R1 with Ultegra weighs 19.5lbs and Rockets are almost a pound less.

It doesn't look too nice but the best thing is to waxoyl all the bolt heads that get furred up and the oil cooler lines, all round the swing arm, the footpeg mounts. Come spring you can just wash it off and you've saved a lot of mess.

Many of our customers mount Rumble Road™ speakers just inside the windshield, on the handlebars. As a guideline, allow for the 3" depth of the speaker enclosures, which are approximately 4.75" in diameter, and a standard 3/8" mounting bolt. By turning the mounting clamp opening so that it faces the seat versus the windshield, you can typically gain an additional two inches of clearance. Clamps of various sizes are available on our accessories page.

You certainly can! Some of our customers have cleverly installed "quad" mounts — a pair on the handlebars and an opposing pair astride the passenger seat. If you still can’t quite picture it, this approach is beautifully illustrated by one of our customer testimonial montages. Each pair of Rumble Road™ Premium speakers draws 5 amps peak from the battery.

Yes, we will allow Mtn bikes for first starters in our Wheelers Grade and Beginners Grade. In the interests of safety we will require you to be on a Road Bike as soon as you can. Great to hear it. We currently don't have a track! (It got removed as part of Yarrow Stadium revamp). Our Track Committee is working through issues and red tape with the goal of getting a new track for North Taranaki Cyclists. We will keep you posted on developments.

Like learning to climb a hill, you will need to train for a while until you are able to keep up. Don't expect to just hop on and go as fast as you used to, or you'll be disappointed. Rest assured, eventually you'll be able to keep up. And, you'll be a lot more comfortable than they are! It also depends on the type of recumbent you ride. Some models are more comfort-oriented, while others are designed for speed.
