He might be better off on that. On his new bike he can only shift the front derailur giving him 3 speeds. It did however have an adjustable rear shock.

What?!? :blink:

 

[o3jeff]

The sad thing is he was kicking my ass on the trails and was all over Brian's back wheel.

Hope johnnypoach didn't buy his bike from Toys-R-Us.

Click. :lol:

I love how the front fork is mounted backwards in that picture! :lol:

That should give you some indication of the build quality of their bikes...

Thanks Captain Obvious. I didn't notice that...

:roll:

Greg, you do realize that he didn't 'buy' and 'new' bike, he obtained someone's old bike that he's rehabbing back to life...

 

[bvibert]

Thanks Captain Obvious. I didn't notice that...

:roll:

Well, maybe other people might not have gotten it... :roll:


I'll shut up now...




NOT.

Oh boy. Jeff - maybe you have a buyer for your Rock Hopper?

Yeah, he was right there the whole time. I guess I need to ride faster...

After that ride with Nate, I've been trying to push it faster and faster. I've been using the granny gear less too.

He seemed to be pretty hooked on the full suspension. I don't think he's going to be willing to 'downgrade' to a HT....

Understood. Please tell me the "new" bike is a bit less embarrassing that the TWAA....

Me too, I still chicken out on some of the downhill stuff though...

I think of it as the TWAA with devices resembling shocks on the front and rear. IIRC it's a rad chrome frame though...

BTW - Granny gears are for grannies... :lol:

Classic pow! :lol: I can totally picture him saying that. Steve always cracks me up.
