well hang on a sec, i'm not saying the bike is shit, cause its speced so well but i questioned why spend so so much on doing up a hardtial like that, when you can't really do much more than what u could on a normal hardtail.
Do you race dh on it, do u dj it, do u huck it, what is it meant for.
Take it easy dude.

I didnt say i didnt like your bike i just said i persoanlly cannot see why you would spend so much pressure, obviously it is something that u like and its clearly your pride and joy, just like my bike is to me. When i said do u xc it was a joke, and there is nothing wrong with xc ridin, i do it for training for dh, but no need to get dressed up to look like a dick in the nicks and shit.
My whole coment was a light hearted joke no hard feelings, and you have yourself a very solid bike and very very well speced, u should be PROUD :D

The subphrase ".... played" is getting played.
Calling out played for being played is so last season...
Shut up or ill ban both of you foo's. Foo .. foo will never go out .. Mr T will live 4eva.
foo.
Honest note though ... would these jealous kids please stop going on about .. how you must be rich or fast or something to own a certain product.
leave the kid alone .. if you had the cash you would do the same. Live with it.

:lol:
Tell that to all the dirt jumpers, urban riders and trials riders! :wink:
Having a hard-tail means a much more predictable bike. Having a rear-end that doesn't move is a blessing, not a weakness.
Not to mention, WAY more versatile than a duallie.
Not that I've ever seen Naz pedal up a hill...
im so confused, we got dom threating bans, and talking about spoilt kids, rob going on about moral crap, Socket doing his thing, ryan lecturing jeez!
:P
Confused? Sounds like just another day in the life of Farkin...

nice naz.......i like it you must get some serious air...
i`ve gotta update my frame...... one question though... you should set the rear cog up for a on espeed if thats its intended use coz... u loss a tiny bit of weight..(better for air)and you can get a stronger cog(once your 6ft in the air) you can land with out farkin up all those nice rings or the rear hub..
but man there goes one of the sexiest bikes here
woooooooooo daddy

Nah sorry Al, im still here. Just on holidays tho. Damn hope's are cheap over here. 500 for a 6pot..... Maguras are 120 an end. Minis 250...
Damn thoes brakes look sweet. I fondled a set in a shop in london. They look and feel ever so perfect, like evrything fits sweet, and feels so sharp. Damn the need for money!
Damn i love that 6pot.
Edit: Im not going to put fuel on the fire. I love my moral posts. It gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside. I like the way i ride, i like my bike and i looove riding, soo i dont think we have a problem.
