everything bike that is. I ride this thing anywhere and everywhere. Jumps, drops, trails, trails with jumps and drops. Really fast, really slow. Climbed up 8 miles straight, just to ride back down. I love this bike and can't imagine having another. It literally does everything. It's a Santa Cruz Chameleon with all the goodies.

wow, that's a clean bike.

my Trek 9.8 next to a downed tree at Franklin St. a few days ago that knocked down power lines. This is one of the many trees that knocked down power lines downtown, which t.v. news reporters filmed.

stock, with a kalloy seatpost, x-7 triggers, a ritchey girder front wheel, usually clipless pedals and a fatguy spring (which is too much... mistake). This is easily the most fun bike i've ever had.

Here are a few I've owned over time:

Awesome! I have that exact frame in my garage, tis going to undergo a singlespeed commuter transformation verrry soon. I've never actually seen another one before, do you know what year they are?

That's a pink looking bike you got there!

[househusband]

This is my 'AM/FR' hardtail hardtail; it's a Cotic BFe - Reynolds 853 main triangle. I'm 6'2" and it's a medium (17.5") frame.

I went for sturdy, reliable kit rather than anything fancy; AM SL1 forks, 203mm Juicy 5's, X9 shifters and rear mech, XT front mech and chainset, Thomson post, Hope stem, Easton bars, SDG saddle... wheels are Magura branded DT 440 hubs and DT5.1 rims. Have just been converted (well, for a while anyway!) to single ply Maxxis Minions; they're a bit heavy and slow but the grip on non-surfaced trails is awesome - and I can run them at a reasonably low pressure without my lardy ass causes too many pinchflats.

(I cannot sing the praises of the Rohlof SLT-99 chain enough; I am convinced of its contribution to transmission longevity. I have had two on different bikes for several months and neither shows any chain elongation. Also, the pin retention force is higher than that of even the SRAM Cross-step.)
