Not my exact pictures but along the same lines

Same bike, but mine is in orange :)

Also have a Greg Lemond Buenos Aires road bike as well but can't seem to find a picture of it.

But thats quite the nice bike you have there, a little too ballsy for me, never really got into the downhill thing. The thought of my body just tumbling down the side of a mountain was enough for me to say no thanks.

I usually do XC and road riding but lately I haven't been doing any b/c of stupid work. Now with this warm weather its time to get back out there.

Here's a pic of my Intense Uzzi SLX on the Portal Trail in Moab. I just recently got a Cannondale Scalpel with a Lefty fork. More of a cross-country bike. And much lighter than the Intense - my aging body told me to get a lighter bike.

:D

:D
 
same bike as peewee, got into street riding awhile ago and havn't rode alot since. I got the reg. frame and should have probably got the short. Fun bike though, need to get out and ride more if it ever stops raining.
 
i got a Yeti DH-9(Fox vanilla r/c rear shock) with a Boxxer race fork
others:
-chris king rear hub
-intense rims
-john tomac series kenda tires
and a bunch of other crap that costs a lot of money and makes it that much heavier.

I race downhill and used to work at a bike shop so i got everything fairly cheap and could do all the maintanence/building on it myself.

ohh yeah and full hydro 8" disk brakes,
-some crazy swiss made front DH freeride hub
-a chainstay/ring gear guard

Damn, your bike costs as much as a used XJ, a Yeti DH9 is not a cheap frame. Sounds like an awsome bike
 
yeah. like i said though i worked at a bike shop though
i got the frame, a thompson seat post and seat, rear hub, front hub and fork for something like $2,500
its a nice bike though. its built for goin down hills and fast. its got a really long wheelbase. my best friend has a ventura frame medium and i have a small (it like 16" about) and the wheelbase is still an inch or two longer.
 
I picked up this beauty a couple of weeks ago.

hahaha ^^^^ NICE RIDE!!!

This is the only pic I have of my bike right now. From about a year ago. It's a specialized FSR XC. My first fully and I love it. The jeep has grown since then and I need to find another way to carry it... it's too high!
