What are some good forums to read about basic/advanced bicycle maintenance and other forum-y stuff? I know some people used to be into biking hardcore.

My favourite bike forum is UKMB.net. While theres a lot of useful information there the majority of the members will flame anyone who ventures into the sandbox, and any stupid posts will be grilled.
It's a UK forum, but it's still probably one of the best.
Theres also Pinkbike.com for international users, but most of the people on there are idiots.
What sort of biking are you interested in
I'm using a hand-me-down mountain bike to go to class/around town. Priorities are strength/durability, cost, performance weight in that order. Last week the shifting was fine, but I think I rode down too many stairs and the derailleurs are getting fucked up. Plus I got a flat (on the top of the tube, not a 'snake bite' ) so I am really looking for durability modifications.
And I'm in the US so it'd be great to know what US websites are good to buy stuff from.
