some cool looking bikes coming out...
Saw some guys riding the new '05 stuff up in Santa Cruz. Really nice looking bikes. They were on the new Eduro's and one guy was on the Demo 8 with the new Fox triple. Ugliest damn fork I've ever seen.
That red Demo 9 is one sexy machine.
I dunno, I kinda like the new fox forx. It looks like a cross between a monster (awesome fork but too heavy) and Boxxer (awesome fork but too flimsy for my weight).
That chromo P1 is pretty damn sexy along with the demos and the trail sx.
I like the new norco shore too.
Next years bikes are pretty hot looking but this is not good considering my student income.
i think a big hit will be my next bike. whats up with the 3 different frame types for the big hit on that page? i always liked the classic big hit (black one). i see a lot on the dh courses around here.
They introduced a cheaper single pivot version for the groms last year. I think the other one is a very small frame for women and children of shorter stature.Quote:

The bighit is a great bike except for 2 things: you don't have an option for a 26" rear wheel still, and the 2005 has a shitty set of flame stickers on it.
Don't get me wrong, flames can be cool on a bike, but shitty flame stickers? Boo-erns.
interesting, i never noticed that. a 26" rear suits my kind of riding just fine. i've been toying with the idea on my bullit but think i'll just hold off till my next bike.Quote:

ja, stickers suck in general. after two rides mine are all messed anyways. i wish manufacturers would just leave the frames plain jane. i think i'll peel off everything next time.
