My new ride

Added some new wheels to my collection http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee197/benrhayes/PICT0003.jpg http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee197/benrhayes/PICT0004.jpg http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee197/benrhayes/PICT0005-1.jpg Its a Gary Fisher Piranha. Its what I ride in my off time. Although im not use to the front suspension, so I was doing a pretty fast stopie today and I went up and when I shifted my weight forward the front uncompressed and tossed me. my left elbow is F'ed!!!! but its a sweet ride.

Nice bike:cheers: For the money you cannot beat www.fezzari.com/mountain.htm I own Alta Peak XR and Abajo peak pro. These bikes offer quality parts at cheap prices:cheers:

sweet bike bro... how much did it cost? -a|ex

Well he was askin 600 but I talked him down to 550. And he gave me 50 bucks for an old sharty bike I had. So I walked out the door for 500, and its an '07 model. The '08 has a few better options like hydraulic dics brakes, but it was 800 bucks.

So i'm guessing you are strapping a weedeater to it?

So i'm guessing you are strapping a weedeater to it? um.. why the piss would i do that? i got more torque output in my legs buddy. :cheers:

I've gone ass over teakettle doing stoppies on Mtn bikes. Good times.

Cabled disc brakes suck. Upgrade to something like a magura louise fr in the front. Rear isnt as important.

Once my elbow is feeling ok ill get some wheelie and stoppie pics up here for ya. But I cant apply any weight on my left arm. So its useless (AHH my clutch hand!!!)

umm... you all either are WAY hardcore into biking, or have too much money. I rock the $79 Fleet Farm special. Got front and rear suspension and 21 speeds :dthumb:

Chitty components, chitty ride, heavy, etc etc etc. Just to ride around the street, fine.

Man designed the internal combustion engine for a reason, so we don't HAVE to walk/run/pedal anywhere! :cheers:

Yeah last I checked I dont think they let ya pimp them around campus.. it would be nice. Theres nothing wrong with stayin in shape. Just means lighter weight so i can dig them corners better this summer on my moto!
