I've been riding in the city for 10 years so here goes:

  • Legally you're considered a "toy vehicle" and you have to obey all the same rules a car does. Most cars do not know this and will act as though you are somehow screwing up.
  • You can get in trouble for riding a bike drunk (edit: not a DUI though as I previously said, law changed in '95), but I've never been pulled over.
  • Riding on the sidewalk is illegal.
  • You are legally entitled to an entire lane if no bike lane is present. Good luck trying that one.
  • When cars pass you and you pass them you/they must give a 3' minimum of clear space on each side.
  • Legally you need a white front light and a red rear reflector, but get two lights and wear a helmet. Wear a helmet.
  • Give enough room so you can't get doored. Cars may get upset but you won't die. 1/3 of bike deaths are from doorings. If someone doors you they are in the wrong. Call the cops.
  • Don't post on reddit about how you run stop signs or red lights even when you look both ways, are aware that you have more to lose in the situation, and make sure not to impinge on anyone's right-of-way - they will down vote you to hell.
  • Cars turning right at the last minute and oncoming cars turning left are your biggest dangers.
  • Only lock to things that can't move and get a decent u-lock. The small orange Kryptonite ones have always been popular and are pretty good. No lock will stop a portable angle grinder.
  • Specialized Armadillos (not sold online) are your friend (my bias, others like Gatorskins, etc.); as are floor pumps.

    Cars are getting better at dealing with bikes as they become more popular, but overall the city isn't well designed for bikes. Thus, it is understandable that both bikes and car users will get frustrated with eachother from time to time. Nature of the beast for the time being.

    4 AM rides are great. As is drunk Lake Shore Path riding.

Serfas TCPG - $30, fits both Presta and Schraeder, goes on and off of all valves fine (I've had other pumps get stuck on threaded presta valves and destroy tubes before), comes with adapters for other things (sports balls, exercise balls) so you only need the one pump for everything inflatable you have, and works generally great. I've honestly not wanted anything more since I got it, and in a year of using it a couple of times a week across four bikes, it's never failed me.

Negatives/Side Benefits: If you use it to inflate a 75cm exercise ball, you'll be able to fry an egg on its casing by the time you're done.

I have the Turbo Morph. Same pump but it comes with a gauge for $5 more. I only have it around in case I flat while out on a ride. That's happened once in ~7000 miles.

Mostly I use my large floor pump, to top off the tires before rides. [Serfas TCPG Bicycle Floor Pump] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001MK3GFS/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc=1) $30.

You need a mini pump in case you flat, but it can't compare to the ease of use of a floor pump.

I bought a Topeak JoeBlow Max II from amazon back in March. Given the reviews it seemed like the way to go. Got it, hooked it up and pumped up the first tire just fine. Started to pump the second tire, and something failed in the pump. I could hear hissing near the pressure gauge and I couldn't pass any air through the pump.

Luckily amazon.com has an awesome return policy so I was able to pick up the Serfas TCPG Floor Pump. This pump has worked wonderfully for me, and seems to be built better than the Topeak one.

Ha! Same pump that I bought here in america just a few weeks ago - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001MK3GFS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

You should inflate your tires more. 30-40 psi is a good range for mountain bikes, but if you're on the road, you'll want around 80 psi. Underinflation is more likely to cause flats, due to either the tube being pinched or the larger surface area on the ground (if you run over glass, rocks, thorns, etc.) I have had this pump for around 3 years and it works perfectly every time, highly recommended.

Giro has a nice selection of helmets for varying budgets. I'd also recommend checking out Specialized and Lazer. Trying one out in a store is ideal, especially if you're buying a pricier one.

I'm using this pump myself with no problems. I've also heard good things about Specialized pumps.

Just so you know, CO2 is purely a temporary measure as the molecules are more attracted to the rubber than standard air. After you fill the tire with a cartridge and arrive home, you should always empty the tire and refill with air.

I use this Serfas pump and it is awesome.

I have this and have no issues. Nice, sturdy pump.
