| Predrag Mladenovic 01.07.2011 | Hi my name is Mike and I have a bike addiction, current bikeography (I'll show off to yall since my girlfriend does not give a shit) Intense Uzzi Eastern Axis Voodoo Nakisi 29er Monstercross 1x10 strangeness Mountain Cycle Rumble "the fuck it I'll try that bike" I also have 2 projects a Black Market Riot Rigid (waiting on spokes) for the ABA BMX tracks and an Intense Tazer VP (waiting on 2012 xt) for Texas, the Uzzi was way to much bike for such a flat state. |
| Roy Houn 01.07.2011 | ive done the deal, mines going tomorrow but i have to wqait till maybe next Monday to get the Felt as the guy is busy in the bike shop. He's going to put my cateye computer on it for me and im going to try and get him to throw in a bottle cage too |
| Nestor Witkowsky 01.07.2011 | Like everyone else in Japan, I have a Louis Garneau. I cycle to work and back daily (about 5.5k). I have ITBS or some bullshit w/ my knee so right now, that's all I ride unless I need to go somewhere else. I fucking love it - super cheap and about as fast as a taxi in most cases. Problem is most people ignore cyclists so you have to be very assertive. Not everyone understands, "Get that cock out of your eye and move the fuck over!" either. Just sayin'... |
| Roy Houn 30.06.2011 | cheers for your advice, really dont know much about bikes so its all grreatly appreciated. I just try to listen to what everyone has to say, i like the look of the felt and if its going to make life easier then its gotta be good for me haha |
| Leeanna Ayla 30.06.2011 | The Felt will be faster and if you're not going on trails then probably the better choice for what you want to do. |
| Roy Houn 30.06.2011 | tbh, i very much doubt i will ever go out on the trails. I will just about use it for going back and too to work on lol...the felt bike is like got to be half the weight of the mountain bike, and its a |

| Roy Houn 30.06.2011 | heres the 2 bikes in question getting this one [IMG][/IMG] and selling this one [IMG][/IMG] unfortuneately keeping both isnt an option, as im moving house and cant afford too. I will probably hardly use it if im being honest, i never go down mountains or dirt tracks so i suppose i would be better off with the felt hybrid wouldnt i? |
| Roy Houn 30.06.2011 | am i doing the right thing in selling my mountain bike for a hybrid as all i will be doing is cycling on the road back and too to work and maybe own a canal path now n then? |
| Harley Hendzel 30.06.2011 | daaaaaaaammmn i could ride that bike all day. |
| Margurite Mcnamar 30.06.2011 | Just sold this one: So that I could build this: Specialized S-Works Carbon Enduro frame 2011 Fox 36 Talas 180mm XTR shifters and derailleurs with Nokon housing XT brakes and rotors with Goodridge lines XT Wheels Easton Havoc carbon bar Chromag ranger stem Chromag Moon seat Command Post FSA SLK carbon cranks etc.... |

| Nana Mohs 29.06.2011 | Flip flop hub, all black single speed track bike. Vilano frame, campy parts. fun as hell shopping for a new frame for 3 speed road bike for a trailer hauler. also shopping for a single speed cyclocross |
| Boyd Sankaran 29.06.2011 | been through a bunch of mountain bikes over the years, but i believe my 05 stumpjumper is probably the most fun out of all of them for the riding that i do these days. threw on a pike, shorter stem, and wide bars and it feels like a mini-dh bike. coincidentally, it's also the bike that my friends want to borrow all the time. this shot from a few years back is the only one i've got of it right now. |
| Belen Tallbull 29.06.2011 | DMR trailstar LT with lotsa nice bits on it. Single speed, hurts goin up that hill but fantastic comin down |

I hung up the racing stuff a about five years ago after getting really burned out though. I still ride my single speed road bike and mountain bike some, but not six days a week like I used to. Anybody follow the Tour de France? It starts Saturday |
| Chas Giraldez 29.06.2011 | I just recently picked up a Felt F5. Can't wait to start racing, though I have to get into better shape real fast |

| Roy Houn 29.06.2011 | wtf?? pmsl |
| Matt Kane 29.06.2011 | This is my fixie. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My fixie is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. My fixie, without me, is useless. Without my fixie, I am useless. I must ride my fixie true. I must go faster than my enemy who is trying to outdistance me. I must outdistance him before he outdistances me. I will... My fixie and myself know that what counts in this war is not the miles we ride, the noise of the noise of angry car drivers yelling at us, nor the skitmarks we leave on the streets. We know that it is the final destination that count. We will arrive... My fixie is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its sights and its crankset. I will ever guard it against the ravages of weather and damage as I will ever guard my legs, my arms, my eyes and my heart against damage. I will keep my fixie clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will... Before God, I swear this creed. My fixie and myself are the defenders of my streets. We are the masters of my enemy. We are the saviors of my life. So be it, until the streets are ours and there is no single car left, but peace! |
