Show off your Mountain Bike!!!

Jordan thats a great deal, how long will it be good for?

 

till there gone id guess not sure if i was at the shop i could let you know exactly how many are in stock but I'm not at work right now lol the only thing I'm not sure about is the code it works online but i don't think its supposed to with that bike but since its already discounted so the promo code might end up not working on it in the future but i doubt it will sell out to quick

 

Okay i meant to start looking today but wasnt planning on ordering tonight! lol i can tell this may be another expensive hobby for me lol

 

You have no idea.... My DH race bike was about $6k and my Super D / Enduro race bike is about $4k. (I have 4 other bikes....no comment). Take your time and test ride as many as you can before you make any decisions. Also keep in mind what you will be doing with it (trail riding, commuting, jumping, etc.). Have fun!

 

I think Jordan is right about that being a good first bike for me to commute and start trail riding etc

 

I agree. Start with an inexpensive bike and see how you like riding. If you change your mind you're not out a lot of money. I've seen too many people think they're going to be big riders and blow a lot of money on a bike and they find out they don't really like it as much as the idea. Good luck....

 

If you want a computer, I may be getting replacing mine. If you pay shipping you can have have it. Its nothing special but gets the job done.

 

You cant go wrong with it for a first bike especialy since ur gona be commuting on too, capable for riding at a beginers style, cheap and gona be easy to commute

 

This^ once u get really into it, its a money pit but its a fun money pit lol

 

What kind of computer?
Hehe

 

Sigma something....

It's the basic one wired one w/a back light & cadence

Going to sell. few things and pick up a garmin 500

 

seriously i bought my first legit mountain bike like 3 years ago and now i have a fuel ex8 definitely a bit more than a beginner bike and my most expensive hobby haha.

that GT looks good though, i wish i hadnt sold my first hard tail and made it a commuter. i dont ride my bike to class because im afraid of it getting stolen and wearing it out faster than it needs to since tires and chains can start to get expensive haha

 

A pic was put up in the funny pic thread about this.

Anyone going to get it?

Going to look at a 2010 gary fisher piranha tomorrow. The thing is in perfect shape. Anybody have any experience with one of these bikes. Looking for pros and cons.

 

According to Bikepedia, the original components appear to be a good entry-level setup. Hydraulic disc brakes (Shimano) and SRAM X.5. The fork is a coil fork, but a decent RockShox one.

What is the guy asking? MSRP new was $930. I am thinking $350 is a good price in perfect condition.

 

10 year old, (or so), GT Aggressor. '13 Specialized Rockhopper 29.

 

anybody on here ever built their own bike from the ground up? I'm thinking of starting a slow build to replace my old bike thats in pretty rough shape.

 

It'll cost more to do that...unless you buy everything used. But I'd like to do that one day.

 

damn i was kinda hoping for the opposite... Its been a long time since I've cruised this forum but do any of y'all do any mtb get togethers and go riding? i know I'm on not only the wrong coast but the wrong part of the coast but i need to get some good riding going in my life haha. too much desk time!

 

He's asking $475, figured I could get him to $400.
