I bet she rides like a dream. Clears 20 ft flat land drops and the gnarliest of rock gardens no problems im guessing?
The coil and the rotor is a nice touch. :D

In other news, the state of Illinois is suffering a severe shortage of zip ties, duct tape, and super glue. :D
In other other news, Pacific Bicycles has contracted two teenage cycling afficiandos to design it's new line of competition downhill and freeride bicycles. The bikes will sold in Nebraska and North and South Dakota due to liability concerns.
Thank god I don't live in Illinois, no zip ties, oh god, I couldn't live.
great bike. i wish i had it. :D

a) keep it clean
b) dont use aolese again you have been warned
c) don't insult other users or even groups of users
Kid, its a joke, period. Its looks like one of those fun bikes. Get off your highhorse and take it for what it is. You didn't exactly own a real downhill bike yourself. Don't throw stones in a glass building ;)...
Yeah don't throw stones in a glass building, especially the roof, the glass falls down and hurts me.. I mean you ;)

Please note that the post in question was edited subsequent to Mael posting this list.

We were gonna weld the rotor and make brackets for the shock but my dad really didnt want us to do that because he wanted to keep those parts. Also we have some good ideas for action pics. Weve already got a few offers from mongoose to revamp their moutain bike line. Incipit come over and you can try some sweet dowhill in central illinois were world famous for big hills (just kidding incase your stupid like that one guy).
He didn't miss the joke, he is the joke.
HAHA BBUURRNN!

Shwa rider I wouldnt really call it skill because we ended up having about 20 leftover parts so we just left them in a box. Also we dropped the nut that keeps the forks from wobbling loose so you have to tighten the one lock nut we found for it about every 2 mintues. THe bike probably isnt safe to ride(we do anyway) but it was fun to make.
