MR_Candyman Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 I mountain bike mostly. I used to downhill a fair amount aswell, but it wasn't as enjoyable so I slowly grew away from it. I like going over roots and broken down trees in a mossy forest, that's my specialty. I used to be so involved in the sport I actually worked for www.mtbr.com. I later quit because, quite franctly, the owners are asses. I love the site still and the community, just hate them... I still ride the Proflex 757 I got quite a few years ago (98 I believe). I've changed a few parts on it, but I love the suspension. The fork is amazing. A bit heavier than standard forks, but it's worth it for me. I actually wanted to get an Amp Research bike when I got mine, but the dealer made me realise getting parts would be a pain as Amp was pretty bad at supplying replacements.

allen1090 Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 Just bought a new Specialized Rockhopper yesterday, and got them to throw on some Hayes Hydrolic Disc Breaks instead of the Mechanical ones that would normally come with it. And damn do they work well! Too bad I gotta work tonight, I've been out riding all day.... Alwell! :sleep: :happy: http://www.specialized.com/OA_MEDIA/2005/bikes/05RockhopperProDisc_Sil_l.jpg 585859191[/snapback] how much did that baby cost you :woot: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/182389-you-bike/page/3/#findComment-585859287 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuidZilla Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 I just picked up a new Giant Warp DS recently. Been really enjoying riding again now. Mainly city trails but off-road when I get a chance.

Zilos Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 how much did that baby cost you :woot: 585859287[/snapback] $1,603 Canadian w/ 7% taxes. (Which is about 1,270 US) Worth every pennie. :D I mountain bike mostly. I used to downhill a fair amount aswell, but it wasn't as enjoyable so I slowly grew away from it. I like going over roots and broken down trees in a mossy forest, that's my specialty. Ya, I'm not much of a downhill person either. But damn do I love ripping through a skinny trail deep in the wildness! Or high in the mountains above the tree line! **Pause for orgasm** As any hardcore mountain biker would agree. :laugh: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/182389-you-bike/page/3/#findComment-585859675 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zilos Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 looks like you must live in alberta? dont have the PST.. do you happen to live in edmonton? 585861377[/snapback] I live in BC, but there's only 7% tax on bikes cause there 'economically friendly'. So they want to encourage people to buy them. :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/182389-you-bike/page/3/#findComment-585862931 Share on other sites More sharing options...
