Hello all. This is a bit of an intro for me and my '05 Hardrock. I initially bought the HR for some easy riding (mix of town and easy trails) but got back to my routes a few months ago by hitting some real deal trails with a group of friends. The HR has held its own, but I'm a 190lbs 6'2" rider and the components are starting to kill themselves and the Gila RST fork (whatever RST is) is basically a pogo stick at the moment.
But I absolutely love this frame and the geometry. I'm currently looking to snag up another HR frame to build with higher quality components so I don't have to decommission my current HR over the summer. I've seen a few threads out there of rebuilt HR's that look boss so I'm looking forward to this build.
