my new 29r

[BarnDweller]

[mikeyp0771]

a few updates from last year, new(to me) for rlc fork, new saddle, new headset and pedals

love the fork, soo much nicer and the the sh1tty heashock that was on before

[MAC]

Here's a new 29er I just built up. Thats a Ti frame from Bikes Direct. I decided to take a leap after seeing some great reports about the quality. It was only $675 after selling the reba fork it came with. I've seen enough moots and indy fab ti frames to know that the welds on my bike aren't as perfect as those frames but at 1/3-1/4 the cost it can't be beat. Its as nice as lynskey's production frames.

Specialized Stumpjumper Expert Carbon 29"

i've upgraded the handlebars to carbon, put Noir cranks on it, and a layback Thomson seatpost, as well as a new saddle.

did you order that frame or buy it off of someone? i just wonder why the spacers and risers on a custom built frame...

[somedumbjerk]

risers are on there, but i swapped the stem. i bought it off a shop in San Diego. the mechanic had it built for him, and i guess he didn't take into account he could barely touch his toes. it's a little less ridiculous looking now. not my cat either. old roomates cat. I hated that cat...

and the amount of spacers on there isn't too bad. i could drop it if i wanted to, but with a 4 degree rise stem it got a bit lower. rides freaking awesome.

My 2009 Specialized Stumpjumper FSR, best bike i've ever owned, out of the 3... 2000 GT Avalanche, 2002 Specialized Stumpjumper Pro, and now this:

[speedn16v]

I got my 1rst grade son his first geared bike. Felt Q24:


He was hitting 18MPH on his first real ride with it. He'd spin out at 12 with his 20" BMX.

Dave.

[golfclmb]

never too young to ride a geared bike! good stuff!!

[sighbat]

Does a partially complete, super budget bike belong here?

[Muffler Bearing]

new rig is fully operational!

iro model 19, blah blah blah, xt cranks, blah, wodchipper bars, blah blah, bb7s and tektro levers.



so much fun. now just need to find room in my budget for a suspension fork...

[fiatjeepdriver]

I recently picked up this frame, i am slowly starting to get parts in for it. the frame is a 93 gt zaskar le (i need to find decals) and the fork is a gusset jury sl though i am not sure if i like it or not.

[impact]

That Rockhopper looks great.

[VolksAddict]

That Rockhopper looks great.

I agree

[Muffler Bearing]

[Low J.]

It's not? I'll have to make sure and let Specialized know they sent me the wrong bike.

needs to go in the dirt to be a mountain bike.

you just have yourself a fancy hybrid there though.

[jollyrodgers]

for $225 i am happy with it. came with a bunch of extra cassettes and another wheel, plus a cassette tool and a wrench and 2 chains.
will be getting single speed treatment shortly

It was in the dirt last week. I ride it on hard pack single track because even with the hybrid tires it'll do the trails around here with not much problem as my old one did. It's main use though for now is for urban assault and gravel greenways since I'm still getting my nerve back to go full out again after my accident last year.

Here's my previous bike (with hybrid tires) the weekend before I damn near tore my arm off....and here's where I rode it regularly

[Icantdrive65]

They make knobby tires for mountain bikes that get much better traction in dirt.
Highly recommended.

After giving it a good wipe down after a long ride at Mission Trails in San Diego

Nice! Love the paint job on that thing.
