New this weekend!

DG

I toasted the Conti Mountain King rear tire on my Cliff, so I decided to replace it with some bigger tires: Panaracer Rampage 29x2.35. WAY more rolling resistance on the road, but they feel much more stable and absorb more shock on the trail, especially the rear. And of course, had to test them out on a small drop...

Well i finished the novara piedra "WSD" and took it for a quick ride today i guess im sized like a women because this thing fits like a glove plus it was another budget build under 300bucks under 120 if you exclude the wheel set that i already had, but does include my wonderful 50cent seat. I just need to get a longer travel fork i pedal tapped the ground a few times.

I hate the "women specific design" marketing BS. It should just be yet another smaller size. As if everybody has the same size body parts--gimme a break.

it says its a 17" but it fits pretty much the same a a trek 17.5 with a shorter TT i agree with you about the MarketBS its a load other than the girly paint theres no way to tell

Yeah I don't think this is specific to Trek but Bontrager has made two really nice compact drop bars but if you're a guy and they fit you, you have to put up with the pretty flourishes and the stylized "W" logo or "for women" on the front for all to see.

Thas why i threw a quick coat of rattle can over it

Chilling on the cape...

My new (to me) Commencal Meta 55. Sram 9, Firex cranks with bash and tungsten coated rings, Fox Float rear and Magura Thor front shocks. Front wheel is a Hope hub with Mavic 719, rear is a WTB hub and Sun Equalizer. Absolute Barcalounger on wheel ride. Climbs damn good too.

This is mine, entry level MTB but it is quite good for me and it is limited. You can find only one of this in the town I live. Merida TFS frame, Shimano Alivio 2010 9 sp, Suntour XCM-V2, Avid SD5 V-brake.

My current ride, '08 Giant Boulder. Nothing special, it's currently broken and am in the market for a new ride.
