Picked up my 'new' toy last night

 

Was an ebay deal, roughly a 200km round trip to pick up and I bought it on face value as these bikes are top quality and it had a decent build spec. With the ridiculously low price I won it for I was pretty wary and half expecting to find a beaten hag with worn pivots, thrashed drivetrain, possibly even a hairline crack or two in the frame...at worst case I knew I could more than get the coin back easy enough by flogging off the parts.

Seller was a top bloke, the bike is a gem and I'm a bit :giverose:

For the first time in its life the ute started overheating on the way back, convinced the blue bitch was jealous lol

 

That or the thermostat.....

Nice one Camo. They're a very good quality bike. Looks like an older 26" model? In mint condition though. Old mate mustn't have ridden it much.

 

Have you done much riding before?

The donk on this is a technological masterpiece - removed after every ride and multiple fluid dumps every 24hrs. Still going strong after 30+ years.

 

Prob the most amazing thing about it is how it responds to punishment - basically the harder you push it the stronger it gets if you're feeding it the right fuel.

Yeh it's a 2011/12 model, he's looked after it really well and made some decent mods.

10 years ago I was doing shuttle runs just about every weekend on a giant DH team, sold it to help fund first mods on the ute back in 2010. Since then ive got married, had 2 kids and only riding I've done since is prob less tham once a month on an old XC bike - just fire trails etc - until a few weeks ago I stumbled across some decent local gnarl by accident and was instantly hooked again....been looking for another bike since.

We here talking about headphones in another thread - just had a new arrival turn up today.

 

Have been wanting to get a set of Stax electrostatic "earspeakers" for ages.

 

Finally bit the bullet.
