Some beautiful machinery in here guys, credits to you all.
These are mine, both pretty much NOT how they left the shop..... A Giant Yukon FX3, cheap as chips, but a modifiers (me) dream, and a Saracen Ruftrax which I use mostly on the road commute. Only the frame, crank andsaddle remian from the original bike on the Saracen. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...bikes06106.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...bikes06107.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...2032010598.jpg |

I'm not too fond of the paint job, but whatever.

It's called a "pull shock". Looking at the second pic, The mount on the seat tube holds an inner piston in place while the seatstays grip an outter piston and push it into the shock. Really interesting design.

I went to an aerospace welder and got it built up for $20. I feel very confident on it, and it rode great today.

http://www.scvtalk.com/images/specialized/IMG_0492.JPG Until today, I only rode road bikes and commuted to work. But I needed to keep up with my friends who had transitioned to MTB. So I bought this bike on ebay and baptized it today on my first ever MTB ride. This is a crazy sport, so many challenges and skills to learn, so much fun to bomb down the single track! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...s/IMG_1397.jpg |
^^ Do you shop in MTB shoes? :lol:
