    i'm gonna annoy you with this one, 2024 Kona Explosif! update 12/09/25

    The front mud guard isn't too bad but the rear... 🤮 I prefer to just get dirty though, so I'm probably not the target market

    1998 Kona Ku

    Correct, they were too orange and I was a bit disappointed. This added to the issue of a dint showing up on the top tube after it was blasted and resprayed. I still put more than 3000km on it before retiring back in 2016. Unfortunately when taking the BB out the frame threads came along for the...

    Ribble R9 mountain bike

    There's a fair chance that nobody working at Ribble now actually remembers anything that far back. None of the original company directors are there anymore

    1998 Orange P7 Tourer/ATB

    Those brakes seem like a terrible design. I'm really not sure what problem they were trying to solve. I would ditch them and just get a set of basic shimano or avid from ebay

    What's in the box?

    33lbs is pretty wild for a trail/xc hardtail. My Transition Sentinel is also 33lbs....

    Dog_boy’s 2002 Gary Fisher supercal 29er

    Yes. Also, the '03 - '05 Monster T's had so much clearance you could get a 29" wheel in them even though they were designed for 26"

    2011 Intense M9 FRO - owned from new and rebuilt

    I remember the elastomer stack from my Quadra 21's firing into my chest under compression when the plastic threads on the topcap just gave up. Hopefully that won't happen to you!

    Marin Team Marin DH (FRS DH) - my first DH bike

    I felt pretty lucky to have a muni-mula and could also only dream of stuff like the Marin DH. I daresay my parents could have spent more but in hindsight I'm pleased they didn't. My bike did the job and I was never off it in my early teens. Notwithstanding all the riding I did, I was never...

    Pump Track Build - 2003 Saracen XESS XTREME

    People might cringe but I always use my impact gun on tight bolts. Significantly reduces the chance of injury and, so far, I haven't damaged any bolts or the things they are jammed into. I find adding massive leverage to allen keys adds so much more chance of them slipping or rounding off
