300 miles in and loving it
Bought myself this 25 Dax 125 in march in anticipation of a fun riding season. Despite weather fluctuations/lots of cold weather until now, I’ve got a little more than 300 miles on it. I’ve even gotten to use it to go to a few job sites which is always fun to do. Frame mounted carrier thing and 36 tooth rear sprocket are the only upgrades so far but there will be more once riding season is over and tinker season begins!
Took my new Dax to my favorite place
50 miles in the first two days.
Picked mine up yesterday
And immediately put 15 miles on it.
Took the Dax on a ride up to the ski resort to see how the elevation gain would manage. Stayed in 3rd for the majority of the ride, but it helped me get a good understanding of what I can and can’t do.
On a plus, I now have a spot for snacks and my water bottle after an hour long ride into the Boise national forest.
Which center rack should I pick up? I'll probably use both tiedowns and a small bag. Trying to keep it economical.
Looking at these two:
Installed the rear luggage rack, engine guard, and skid plate from T-Red Racing along with fenrir bar mirrors, and a side and center luggage rack from Amazon. The helmet bag is a rhinowalk tail bag that fits the luggage rack wonderfully.
I’m in my first week of riding, but I’m already loving this as a city commuter.
