specialized rockhopper comp 29er in black.

C Heath-

Holy crap, that's a big bike, 2000px × 1300px.

Edit: Thanks, someone brought it down to a reasonable 1024px × 666px.

Can a mod please resize that?

Etiquette here people :)

Hopefully I will have a few things to post, I have found a suspiciously shaped box that I have a pretty good idea what is in it.

I got some black socks for riding, thats all the bike related stuff I got.

Woo Hoo!!!!!!!!!! I got a NOMAD!!!!!!!!! Yeah :thumb:

I also got like 70$ to performance, because none my relatives knew what else to get me.

Heres mine.............

I'd hit it.

I got a new SLX crankset (triple), M540 SPD pedals, and Specialized MTB sport shoes to go with it. I also got an Alivio crankset from another relative who wasn't in on the SLX buy. SLX and pedals are still in the mail, pics as soon as I get them in.

i got a couple pairs of biker socks... and a light: Firewire 4.0

Socks, a really nice Ibex wool jersey. A cool guide book to the Great Divide cyling route, portions of which go pretty close to Missoula, and agift certificate to REI (though it will go to skis).

Gave more biking presents than I got though, mainly new handlebars, lights, and fenders for my dad's commuter.

Another PB SF blinkie for my commute rig and a frame pump as well. Also got some cash I plan to pour into a 29" HT one of these days...

DMR V12 Pedals, Troy Lee Jersey and XC shorts.

I got:

*Panaracer Fire XC Pro 26x2.10 tires
*Axo full gloves
*Tools: 8gal compressor, 6pc Dewalt combo, bunch of carpentry stuff.

Nothing else related to my cycling hobby. I got a lot of cash and giftcards which i will be using to fund some camping/mtbing trips.

So the suspicious box turned out to be Azonic Strip bars. I also got the Sette Shadow frame and money for a fork (it was an envelope with a plastic fork taped to it:thumb:). I am thinking a 55 R. Do you feel like you could recommend it Ed? I am a little worried about the bushing slop issues but the price is hard to argue with... especially because it leaves me with extra funds for wheels or brakes.

What frame?

This one

Pic's?

wow, read the reviews for your Sette Shadow frame...seems awesome!!

(i might get one...)

for my presents...i didn't get anything, maybe i'll wait till my bday (jan 1!!) and maybe get something awesome... :thumb:

ADD : For anyone who knows...will the sette shadow frame be any good for a bit of AM/DH disciplines?

Well technically it's a present. To me from me! Rest of the stuff should be here in a week or two.

I got $100 that will be spent on a part of a new BB/crankset or possibly a new BB for my road bike. For some reason I destroy bottom brackets.

OMG, OMG, OMG....sexy:love:

I didn't get anything except drunk. I have ordered quite a few things for myself in the last while:
MW80 winter shoes
XT shifters and brakes
more wheels?
XT cassette
another handlebar
some tires

I dunno, I've kind of lost track. I know I did not order a frame, fork, cranks or dérailleurs.

http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj234/victim_01095/DSC_0123.jpgDoo-dah!


Nice bandsaw too.

MW80 winter shoes

Just finished putting on the cleats.

But since I have the week off work (no bike commutes) I've been too wussy to try them outside.

Park TS-2, dishing tool spoke wrenches, rotor truing dial and rotor truing wrench. ts-2 base too.

Will do sir....gotta change em first..pics will come up soon

I didn't get anything cycling related for Christmas. I'm pretty content with the stuff I have now. i may buy new tires for th Big Dummy in the springtime, but that's it.

What Turner model is that? I haven't kept up with the current colour selections and stuff. Is that the Spot?

It's an 08 RFX (not the new DW Link style).

Making sure this keeps the other "official" threads company

Really?

Making sure this keeps the other "official" threads company

Hahaha...at least this one doesn't suck.:lol:

What prompted you to search for it...insecurity?:rolleyes:

The same reason you searched for my "can you trackstand thread". But the difference is....I didn't search for your name. I searched for "Official" in the title and it just so happen you were the author.

Assumption confirmed.

hahaha so awesome.

Closed.

Homey don't play dat.
