[Matil]

Can anyone tell me what they think of Subrosa's Letum Dirt for '08? It retails for around $600 and looks pretty gnarly, wanna know what your opinions are.

[beaty]

if they'r as good as there bars. Then it should be gnarly as hell...thats all i got for ya hahaha

[Lemontime]

Yes, I've ridden it, and like I said, it feels "Meh" nothing special, pretty average, feels pretty short and clunky, for the money I'd try something else.

[Matil]

looks like lilydale cycles sell the dirt model for only $580. let me know if you guys think it's worth it, or whether i should start looking at something else. also considering forgotten or specialized's fuse range, thanks to deaks for letting me know where i can find those :)

oh, cheers dude, thanks for the heads-up.

[Lemontime]

I'd say definitely go for the Forgottens, they look shweet!

[Matil]

yeah, they're pretty tough, AND they come with comic books! :P the question now is, which one to go for? yarra valley cycles starts out with the venom at $399...they seem to have pretty good prices although the kink range which i'm also interested in are a bit pricier than some other places i've seen.

[beaty]

yea the spec list isnt anything special. Try looking around a bit more, im sure there would be a better bike with better specs for $600

[ride2puke]

hey,

What do you guys think about the subrosa maluim dirt. it's a bit more pricey. but a hell of a lot better ?

cya

[jonno_40]

my friend has one, it was all right at the start but after the first week he has had nothing but problems.

[pryaz-norco rider]

I think you should forget about Subrosa altogether. Ever thought about Eastern, Fit, Kink etc.?

[alexr5291]

its not made that well, look at wethepeople or kink
