So let's double the offer to $100.
OK, we've decided there will be two $50 vouchers thanks to Dales.

So two names will be drawn from a hat... odds are pretty good!

Again not for the prize but the publicity in the hope I can find this young fella a bike. I don't have anything suitable.

Did you keep/ride that flex-pivot Funk much @Rusty_68? I've always wondered how they ride.
Not the best I have to say. Biggest problem was the zero pivot for the shock, so it had a tendancy to snap the inner shafts. I mean, the whole point was to not have any pivots, but it was always going to cause problems. Beautifully built frame though. Welds were superb.

Yeah that bit always looked very sketchy. Ignoring that, how did it pedal? If a conventional pivot was where the flex part is it'd wallow shockingly, but I wondered if the inherent "spring" of the material would mitigate it some...

It pedalled OK. Not a lot of wallow, but a fairly sharp rebound on the bigger hits. I liked it, actually.

Loving everyone's enthusiasm to keep Santa real for another year. We're up to 18 new decent threads about biking and I reckon a noticeable drop on the Bickercounter. Only two threads left to go...

If you've started a good thread and I've missed you on the list do let me know. Has to be your content though, not reposting news etc.

Seriously though, nice work everyone.
