I peed a little watching these :)

What sucks is I almost got an enduro when I bought my xc. My bike shop had a new 06 Enduro Elite brand new and marked down to only $200 more than my xc but I passed thinking it was too heavy as more than needed at the time. Sure wish I could go back and get the enduro instead.

 

I just found an enduro for sale for $700!! guy needs to leave country and needs it sold. Frame is XL and i am 6 foot 1 in do you think it will work?

 

<<<<bet thats what your doing to yourself now. lol

 

eh.... im a little hesitant buying used DH bikes just because of the amount of stress put on the frame and components.... that size should be right for you... it really depends on your inseam though. take a look at it, ride it, make sure the frame is in tip top shape... triple check the welds and the bushings on the suspension parts. id even go as far as having your local bike shop who is familiar with these bikes take a look at it and make sure its ok to go bombing down the mountains on.

 

yea, ive been thinking about that but there is pretty much know way i can drop $2000 on a bike before summer. Im going to hopefully check it out tomorrow. and he just replaced the fork with a Fox RP 23 Shock

 

Not sure about the size, but Im 6'3" and have a 19" bike. its just a Iron Horse Warrior 4.0.

its a great bike, not a total down hill bike, but for 700 bucks it does great! but Im not quite there yet exspearience wise.. I plan on doing alot of trail riding this summer.

Does anyone know of any good trails in the Pacific NW area?

 

yeh def. check it out. that shock he just put on there is decent.

 

heres a pic of the bike

 

You should hit Whistler! That place looks insanely cool. I know a riding buddy of mine has hit some pretty cool sounding trails down here in Oregon, I'll ask him about some.

 

awesome. i have zero time to ride mine on the street nevermind the dirt

 

Awsome! thanks!

 

that seems a bit small for you because im 5'9" with a 19" Ironhorse Warrior 3.5 and it fits me just right.
as long as your comfortable with it thats all that matters!

 

Yeah, it is a little small, but thats what I wanted. I like a smaller bike. I feel more in control, If that makes sense.

 

Yeah, I agree about the small frame thing. I'm only 5'8 but ride a medium frame (17") and sometimes I wish it were even smaller. I think mainly I like the smaller size so its lower and feels more stable and 'flickable'

 

someone just offered him 3,000 so he told me to pound sand hahah

 

def. my specialized rockhopper is a 17 in. frame. its perfect when i want to go to the trails and just do the obstacle park (teeter totters and misc. jumps) i can throw my body around a little easier because the arms are not stretched out as much.

 

what a douscher if he was a dick about it.id take the 3k also but wouldnt be an ass.


better luck next time!

 

haha yea for sure. I was hoping to get lucky. but i guess it just wasnt meant to be....I just need to start selling some stuff. i think i got my sub and 12 string sold. so theres $425. woot! and i graduate this week! so grad money hopefully

 

here is mine. i tried selling it, but for what i paid for it and what i would like for it its best to keep it, even though i bought it for a good deal brand new.

 

DANG thats a nie bike. i was looking at kona's. how do you like it?
