Dam Nismo you've got a lot of work into those tanks. I've got a 70 thats currently dry and waiting to be revamped. a 29 gallon with Pengiun filtration and an 8" Texas Blue in there and a 15 Gallon upstairs thats dry. I keep South American Cichlids, but may put a ton of Africans into the 70 gallon when i bring it up stairs

dude what do you know of bike geometry aren't you brand new to this sport and are just learning to use clipless pedals :confused: this design has been around for a couple years now (klein palomino, Maverick monolink Ml-7) and has been getting kick butt reviews, my bud rides a palomino and that thing rides great and climbs outstanding, just to little travel for my taste. i hate when people dog on other peoples rides especially when they have no idea what they're talking about.

That "funked up geometry" has been voted the ultimate/perfect XC full-suspension design by quite a few experts.

It does look unusual, and its customized as well, which probably also makes it's shape seem different. It's an awesome ride, though. Climbs like crazy, and is still well behaved for decents.

egads, no. Standard Mavic UST rims.

Hey - I didn't notice before, but the sizes are really different on the picture. I wonder how I pulled that off...

Do africans, south americans get boring after about a week.

BTW, I only have one aquarium. Everything I mentioned is in the same tank.

you need to chill out man. its pretty obvious he didn't mean anything by it. all he was saying is that the frame looks a little weird.

I must be the only one who wasn't offended by what was said about the bike. It is definately the least common geometry for a lot of riders I know(I have only seen 1 in 3 years here) and it is very strange looking. Whether or not it works or not is irrelevent. It is odd compared to suspension today.

There is a lot of suspension I find odd looking. Doesn't mean I comment on performance or not. But it is odd And I may be new to the sport but I do know a lot about suspension design and still think it is strange to look at
