2008 Motobecane Fantom 29: Replacement Tubes
http://motobecanefantom29.blogspot.com/2008/10/replacement-tubes.html
Friday, October 10, 2008. I did some research on tubes that would be flat resistant and decided to order some Slime Smart Tubes. At PricePoint. They are only $5.98, so only $2 more than regular tubes. I think the slime would stop the types of leaks I had so far. The only downside seems to be the extra weight which is not much of a concern to me. June 29, 2009 at 2:26 AM.

2008 Motobecane Fantom 29: 806.4 Miles Broken CycloComputer Bracket
http://motobecanefantom29.blogspot.com/2011/01/8064-miles-broken-cyclocomputer-bracket.html
Saturday, January 1, 2011. 8064 Miles Broken CycloComputer Bracket. On December 24, 2010. When I was riding the Fantom 29 my cyclocomputer bracket broke. I had leaned my bike on the rail at the dam at Marsh Creek State Park and a good wind blew the bike over. The bracket cracked probably because it was so cold. On December 31 I received the Cateye Enduro 8. I installed the bracket and sensor wire on January 01, 2011. Now I also have a spare wheel magnet and computer. Good instructions even in Chinese!

Friday, December 31, 2010. I did my last ride of the year at Marsh creek State Park- - my usual 9.3 mile ride but this time in the snow. The Fantom 29 performed flawlessly.. I just noticed this huge wall on the Green trail even though I am on this trail a lot. This Eagles Santa stands watch on Little Conestoga Road. Labels: Marsh Creek State Park.

Sunday, May 23, 2010. I went for a nice ride at Marsh Creek State Park, 10.5 miles. The weather was great, temperature in the upper 60s, and everything in full bloom. The Fantom 29 performed flawlessly. The trails were nice and shady.They had that cool feel of fresh growth. The Fantom 29 needed a quick drink. Labels: Marsh Creek State Park.

2008 Motobecane Fantom 29: 285 Mile FLAT REAR TIRE!
http://motobecanefantom29.blogspot.com/2008/10/285-mile-flat-rear-tire.html
Sunday, October 5, 2008. 285 Mile FLAT REAR TIRE! This is my third flat tire, the first on the rear. It is way too many flat tires. To put it in perspective, I have over 2100 miles on my Raleigh Grand Prix. Road bike and have not had a flat. 2) An external object punctured the tire and tube: At the location of the leak there were no objects on or in the tire. I also checked the entire inner and outer surface of the tire, there were no objects. The defect was a very small "pin prick". I guess ...4) A tube...

2008 Motobecane Fantom 29: 770 Miles: Rear Flat Tire
http://motobecanefantom29.blogspot.com/2010/11/770-miles-rear-flat-tire.html
Saturday, November 13, 2010. 770 Miles: Rear Flat Tire. On Tuesday November 09 I did my normal weight lifting in my basement. I noticed that my rear tire was flat. It was OK when I rode the bike on Sunday. This is my second rear tire flat. I last had one at 285 miles. So I rode 485 miles on this tube. So I removed the tube and did my investigation as to the cause of the flat. The leak is located at a seam which is a weak spot. I have had other tubes fail at the seams.

Saturday, July 17, 2010. Today I rode 7.0 miles at Springton Manor Farm. Although it was only 10 am it was already hot and humid. The Fantom 29 performed flawlessly. I haven't been riding the Fantom 29 as much as I used to. I have primarily been riding my Raleigh Grand Prix rode bike. I really like riding the Fantom 29 in the Fall and Winter when the weather is cooler. Labels: Springton Manor Farm. Saturday, July 3, 2010. This is an insulator that I found on the side of the road. 2008 Motobecane Fantom 29.

Sunday, June 27, 2010. Road ID- - Be Prepared. I think it is a great idea to wear a Road ID. I always wear mine when I am biking. Mine has my name, contact phone numbers and my blood type. I think it could save your life. On June 27 I was driving my car on RT 322 when I was approaching a yellow light at Culbertson Run Road. I stopped, momentarily looked down. When I looked up I saw a guy on a motorcycle flipping in front of me. Apparently he hit a mini-van. So I think a Road ID would have helped. 50 year...
