Blur LT is winning in my head ... only coz I can't work out how its balancing on its own ...

Closely followed by the Tracer ...

I agree Crank ... the Fb is a little weird looking, but man I wanna ride :)

How do you guys find the 2-ring with chain guide set up? Does the chain stay on? ever find yourself wanting the 'big dawg'?

how is DW's new suspension system?

the corsair has nothing to do with DW-link or Dave Weagle. Works awesome though, rearward axle path makes it super plush and the idler pulley stiffens it right up under pedalling.

OK, here's my 'All mountain' trail bike.

140mm Front and rear. Rides brilliantly both up and down. 12.3kg.
Those tyres in the pic lasted 1 ride and were quickly replaced with something a little meatier.

My Trusty Bullit ...

Getting a little long in the tooth, paint work is getting pretty tired and sand blasted ... but its ripping pretty good up and down at present ... presuming the engine is on song :eek:

finally converted to 36/26 x 9 (34) as I wanted a safety blanket of a granny for when I'm particularly fat and lazy

Soon to become a wall ornament ... but we'll see.
