Toddler to Middle School – What’s the best pathway for the fledgling cyclist?
Question 1
Dear Doctor,
I enjoyed the new podcast and learned a few new things along the way. I’m an old MTBer, but new to fat bikes. I know tire pressure is important to fat bike ride quality. I’ve seen general ideas on what psi to use depending on terrain, but I would also think that there are many variables to also consider such as tire size, rider weight, etc. Do you have any pointers for dialing in the ideal psi?

Question 2
Hey Doc. I have a 2014 Devinci Troy. It is making what could be described as a “Rusty Hinge” noise coming from the bottom bracket. I can feel a noticeable drag when I pedal and there is an accompanying rubbing noise as well. It does this intermittently and doesn’t seem to matter what gear I am in. It does do it mostly when peddling under load. I have replaced the press fit BB and had the rear pivots serviced.
