I've been out of the bike scene for such a long time, used to be pretty avid, get out at least twice a week to Kananaskis. Don't have pics right now but I have about a 4-year old Cove Stiffee.
It was nice because when I was buying it I picked the frame, picked all the parts I wanted and they said come back in a couple hours and pick it up. Only thing I've really changed on it since then was to upgrade the Marzocchi shocks for abit more travel, up to about 110mm or so. I'll get some pics up eventually.

Sex should be like a Civic; slow, obscene, and loud enough for the neighbors to hear.
Hey man, like many I used to be huge into MBing, Ive seen regained interest however much has changed since I used to ride. Im looking for a good bike that will be fun on the downhills, good for stunting around town and decent as a xcountry machine. What do you recommend?Originally posted by civic_stylez

Here's my good old '02 Rocky Mountain at Jewell Pass during a rainstorm. Brakes, both derailleurs, handlebars and crank have been updated since.
I'll get a pic up shortly, but I ride a '03 Rocky Mountain ETSX-50, with a Fox Vanilla 125 RLC front fork.
Well i went and took pics when i saw this, for some reason i feel like showing off tonight (EDIT, there are other but i cant figure out how to do multiple images in one post so fuck it you see one bike)

thats why i bought it! giant is really trying to make riding more affordable...the frame is the exact same as some of their much more expensive models the manitou front suspension is the best bang-for-buck that you can find. the bike is very light for a softail and id recommend it to anyone!Originally posted by Redlyne_mr2

we should hook up and do some riding togather.
Civic stylez, the comp is an AWESOME rig, IMO probably the best DH race frame thats affordable to your average consumer. Had her out at invermere last weekend, its a different climate over there, Swansea is amazing right now.
Bike #2
Giant rainier frame, heavily abused psylo fork, and a disturbing hodgepodge of parts (my favs are the wornout 8spd LX rear der with the 9spd drivetrain, the shitty shimano m454 rear hub that got the all seals off a OLD paralax LX hub thus making it as good as an lx, and possibly the best part the road bar tape for grips thats all left over scraps from building trek bikes). Im not sure if ill ever be able to build a bike like this again now that im out of the shop. but a special thanks goes out to all the boys that contributed parts because its an awesome XC rig at a price that still boggles my mind.
