I'm actually going to be in washington state next year, but nowhere near spokane so i guess we won't go for a ride. |

Many of these photo's would be well suited to the Daily Ride Reports thread describing location and circumstances surrounding them.
Nice bikes and pictures people. :thumb: |
Guess I'll join in on this... Here's a few pics of my 2005 Giant DH Team. Picked up the frame and built up the rest with parts that I already had. Unfortunately I can't get pics of my other bikes right now. One's here in pieces, the other 2 (Giant Trance X2 and Propel) are both sadly approx 2000 miles away right now :( :( :(

^^ Very cool.

Thanks. I wanted to get a Sun Ringle MODO front wheel for the bike (the Single Track just looks out of place with the huge Stratos S8 fork) but they seem to be impossible to find these days.

Ya, but you'd be wishing for the Singletrack back every time it did a nose-dive off a jump ;)
|
Haha touche

My new 2014 KHS Flagstaff, got it just after new years. Hell of a step up from my '98 Specialized Rockhopper hardtail.

Still going strong. Seems nowadays I do all my off road riding in the winter.

Cameraphone pic of my Blur TR. Just finished the initial build last week and I still have some tweaking to do. The fork is new, the rest came over from my '04 Blur classic. My gravity dropper is clunking in the mid-position and I'm debating whether to send it in, upgrade to a Reverb Stealth, or just ride the standard post.
The front end is too high but obviously you can't add material back to the steerer tube, so I had to ride it first to be sure of that before cutting further. http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=429417 |

To be honest, I'd stick with your GD. There is something to be said for the straightforwardness of a mechanical post. I will keep using my Contact Switch post as long as I can warranty the gas spring; but then it will be on to a GD, Spec. Command Post or and RSP Plummet. |

Just got this thing up and running again, well mostly up and running. I stole the seat post after breaking the one in my surly karate monkey. Still not really sure wth I'm going to do with it. I put semi-slick tires on it thinking I'd use it for gravel/rail trails but I'll probably end up sticking knobby tires back on it and hitting the trails every now and again. Was my first real mtn bike and I think by now the only original parts are the crank and rear brake. |

Nothing better than being 10 miles from the nearest neighbor way up in the mountains for the weekend. 3x3 wasnt to shabby.
