drool :shock:

niiiiice. I kind of prefer a straight or lowered top tube though. It seems safer to me but otherwise they look a lot nicer now. Less like a Mecano nightmare and more streamlined.

I wonder if they're any lighter now?

I saw that on pinkbike a few days ago and thought, "God Damn, thats smooth". Quite pimp.

[Ride_Guy]

Nice, very very nice :D :D

[milne]

very nice, he'd he get ahold of an 05 model?

[Ride_Guy]

very nice, he'd he get ahold of an 05 model?

He bought it? :wink:

[naz]

:shock: omg thats fucken insane, i want :cry:

[Cyco]

The new design looks cool, we have a couple of guys interested when they get here. Should be a lot easier to fit a chain device, the seat tower support on the 04 was wider than the BB shell - a serious PITA to get it working perfectly.

The new frames look shit

[ride4fun]

imagine that with some blue x-works dorados 8)

[RaID]

at first glance it looks very similar to
the blue big hits

damn that looks nice
hopefully the changes in geometry
make this model more nimble then the previous

[Turley]

Hopefully they have fixed up the pivots on the rear end so they dont' come so loose and move around as much.

[Mason]

very nice, he'd he get ahold of an 05 model?

He bought it? :wink:

The bike shop he got it from, Calgary Cycle pushes out more Santa Cruz bikes then any other shop in Canada. So Santa Cruz sent Calgary Cycle 3 05 V10's I believe. A blue, gray and black one. The kid who has the blue one, got the black one also, so he has 2 of them. He purchased them pretty much as soon as they got there, so they were up for grabs to anyone, but he snaked them. Thats how he got the 05 model so early.

[RaID]

so he has 2 of them.

:x , is he gonna ride both of them?

[toodles]

2 V10s! :shock: Why? Does he swap colours to match his shorts or something...

[WooKie]

hmmm curvy and sexy!

[Mason]

2 V10s! :shock: Why? Does he swap colours to match his shorts or something...

Both him and his dad ride them

[jungle]

[man]

[lotec]

I wonder if they're any lighter now?
They are.

[parallax]

Is that a 24" rear wheel in the pic??

Or just the angle of the camera.

[One Kill]

Cant be...It has Minions. Unless they make 24 inch Minioins now?

[Grix]

Very nice indeed :P

.. I would prefer to see a nicer looking chain stay protector the old bike tube and some black tape dosnt quite do it for me :idea:

P.I.M.P

[mtb_man]

That looks very fine, especially in the anno blue colour. Still i'd rather a VP Free but that's just me... :wink:

[Mason]

That looks very fine, especially in the anno blue colour.

Whats neat about the V10, might be the VPFree also is that the writing is lazer etched (sp). No more stickers, and stickers don't stick... that good on the anodized coating.
