Hi all,
On my ride this morning, the trail seemed to be struggling to get up to speed. Anything above 35 felt like I was forcing the bike.
To give you some insight, I did drop the bike twice when I first got it but that was summer last year. I rode it after then with no issues. After that, it sat for a few months. More recently, I’ve started riding more consistently, all surface streets. I refilled the gas for the first time last week. This is my first bike ever so I don’t know much in terms of mechanics. Is there anything I can check myself or should I take it to a shop to get checked out?
