i'm lucky enough to have ridden the dh team many a times and although it weighs 21 kgs it rides like its 16kgs...my 2 cents...whoa peg on a mtb are you crazy?:P

Tommy

[man]

oh im crazy alright... a few people should know about how in fixed my rear wheel in the city last night... it involved a messed up abubaca, 4 ghosties when i was pissed off, and then the solution, a concrete wall... but its all good....and yeah, the dh team weighs a bit, but i dont mind, nor do i have the money to go saving a few grams on light parts it rides great so im happy...

[lotec]

go on, tell your mum you cant ride it cause its too heavy and youll have all the lightest shit on it in no time :)

Haha yeah... got dodgy home job in martin place?

mmm... my dh bike is better than yours.... oh wait... mine doesnt freaking work........

Soften the DH team and it will be the sickest bike.

the 250 is pretty crap.... ;) get the forks modded to 100mm or even just so they are set at 110 and not locked down, and it will be shmick as too!

[wtr]

Not being 'dualliphobic', but I love your hardtail more.:p

[man]

go on, tell your mum you cant ride it cause its too heavy and youll have all the lightest shit on it in no time :)
and thats why the 250 is nearly 17kgs's...:p

[MrPlow]

Both very nice bikes mate.
That Norco looks like fun.

[Emmett]

Very nice bikes you have there.

[MikeT]

sick bikes sam, i wanna ride your dh team
