I just started getting back into biking, and up until a few days ago I had a Target special Schwinn S60, which weighed a ton and was... just... ugh. Anyway, I found this one on Craigslist and paid $250 for it. It's in great shape for a bike that's basically 12 years old, and I'm really enjoying it.

2011 Bulls Copperhead 3

This one is still evolving.

Up until recently it was on Bontrager Hank 2.2" tires, but those were so big that I actually had trouble getting on and off the bike.
I tried on some low-profile 1.95" amberwalls that I took off another bike and decided that it looked better that way. So they will stay.

It still needs some work. The crankset is a mere Deore, so I'm looking into KCNC cranksets right now. Also considering lowering the fork to sharpen up the handling a bit.
Once that's done, it'll be a matter of small tweaks until it's perfect.

1993 Sbike 503


It may not be the most inconspicuous bike, but it certainly puts the biggest smile on my face whenever I ride it. It's just so incredibly nimble.
I've changed the seat to a Selle Italia Flite Ti since these pictures were taken.

1990 Laïti Mono

One of my recent acquisitions. Proof that a Lefty is only half the job.
The bike needs a complete restoration, but even in its current condition it attracts a lot of attention whenever I ride it.

And no, it won't collapse or deform as soon as you sit on it. The designer wasn't just messing about, this is a proper MTB.

What I have now



Uploaded with ImageShack.us
I will stop abusing this thing by the end of the year and get a new mountain bike in spring. This will be for the nice paved roads.

Inbred's are schwizz. I know I've mentioned that I was oogling the 456c, but now I'm even looking at the Lurcher as a carbon SS rigid 29'er. Yup. I said it.

Below is my 1999 GT Outpost hardtail. I am the original owner, rode it while I was in college and it has pretty much sat the last 7 years in the shed. As I'm starting to ride again, I'm using my 1995 Giant Innova for riding around town and will be using this bike for gravel and dirt path activities. Above all, it just feels good to get on a bike again!

Here's my old school hardtail.

This frame is 21 years old, from Cannondale's glory days when they still built frames in Bedford, Pennsylvania. It has gone through 3 frame up rebuilds over it's lifetime.

^^^ cool Cannondale. I always thought those cantilevered rear dropouts were pretty unique.
