[treggs]

Nice rides... If only I had my new bike I would post it and make this a post ya SC thread :D (I've ordered a Liquid Blue VP with full XO and Boxxer WC's. Already have the WC's sitting in my spare room)

At the risk of hijacking this thread that's not such a bad idea.

[nicho]

hey treggs i think your right we should do it a santa cruz thread... so here is my old chameleon that has been sold, unfortunately.

we re waiting on kram s , gripper s treggs sc s ....and many more...

[THRILLHOUSE]

SHIIIIIIIIT they are some damn hot bikes you have yourselves there. Loving them all

[treggs]

Sweet someone liked my idea :eek:

Here are my toy's... I'm saving the Boxxers for the new VP I think. Hey Nicho, want to change the title to SC thread. Maybe other brand owners could start similar threads. If there are a few maybe Sticky in the post your ride section might be a good idea. Mods?

[nicho]

hey i ve changed the title... let s do it people, put up your santa cruz s ..

[treggs]

Now you have me all keen Nicho. I'm about to install my Boxxers WC's on the VP. I'll get pics up as soon as it's done

[scbullit]

I love my Cruz's

[vando]

Well, here's another:

[Kram]

we re waiting on kram s...

There's quite a few shots of mine on Farkin just sitting in the living room, so I thought some action shots would do them a bit more justice. So here's a couple of my Chameleon and one of my new V10. There's also a couple from the archive of my old gold V10 that Lee is ripping on now.

I'm like Nicho. A SC freak. I've had 2 V10's, 2 Chameleons, a Superlight, a Bullit and a Heckler. I would love to get a Blur 4X, but I doubt that is going to happen any time soon.

[nicho]

that is absolutely awesome guys, keep it coming....

by the way treggs you are going to love the world cups over the 888 s they are awesome, and so light that you might even get caught by surprise while riding them...

come i know lyle has a sc, and a lot more people ....


nicho

[tombi]

that Blur 4X is awesome. Would it be possible to get a slightly larger picture of it. BTW all the other Santa's r very sweet. Good luck to all of you.

[treggs]

Ok boys and girls.. Here she is.
My VP Free with shiny new Boxxer WC's.
During the mandatory test wheelie I almost went of the back :D

http://www.adam.com.au/treggs/pictures/New%20VPFree.jpg

[mpdowling]

hey treggs.

since your selling the vp free, would it come with the new boxer's.

bit confused :confused:

[treggs]

Unfortunately no. Comes with 888's with flat crowns. I just couldn't leave the boxxers in the spare room while I wait for my new bike. The picture in the ad (and in my sig) is how it will be sold. It will also be as clean :-)

[Sethius]

its not quite up with you guys, but this is my chameleon...NOW with white tires. :cool:

[treggs]

She's up with the others... Looks like she gets used often :p

[nicho]

its not quite up with you guys, but this is my chameleon...


that is a tight looking machine...nice one

[mcoccia]

My rides. The chameleon was built today.

[Adam 74]

Here's another VP Free.

Gripper you have <english acsent> Too much bloody money </english acsent>

[mtb_man]

I may as well add to this thread, I'm a Santa Cruz addict like everyone else here. I rode a Gen 1 Heckler for 4 years before updating to my current Heckler. Spec has changed slightly since the pic, I'm now running Pikes and 8in Juicys and a new wheelset is on the way too. I freaking love my bike. :D

I'm saving for a VP Free and a Chameleon too, I just have to be patient (and sell some of my other bikes...)

[trailstar]

Here's mine, 2 bikes in 1. '01 bullit, first pic is with her usual parts and the second one is with gear borrowed from my hardtail to make her a trail machine

[R33F]

So many SC's ! :eek: :eek: So many nice ones !

I lurve my bullit :D

(click the link in my sig' for the full spec)

[treggs]

Hey nicho,
Since this thread is getting pretty damn big, maybe a SC Colour POll might be a good idea too. I reckon Trans red might win :cool:

I saw a gold chameleon...that was very schmick

[rtd]

Dang there are some nice Santa Cruz's around...Treggs, I'm loving your chameleon...

Well I guess I should post my bullit up, it's no where near as nice as other Bullits here, but meh, it rides well and I love it.

[Woody69]

thats a good set of bikes... wouldnt mind em under my belt

[b_star]

A few years back all three of us had Bullits. We never actually got a photo with them all together. I sold mine (white) about two years ago to some dude in Coffs Harbour who apparently commutes on it now. The Trans Red was sold to buy a Moto, and the Black is the only one still with us.

[-Jordan-]

Another Bullit.

I love it. :D

[piker]

After seeing all these tasty rides, i'm targeting those of you most likely to recognise my bike. My Pimpin' Heckler was stolen on Cup Eve (31/10/05):mad: , see thread link below.

Please keep your eyes open for this bike.

Sorry for the crap phone pic, but all other photos are with older spec, hence detailed spec list on thread link below.

[OMA11R]

Nice bikes I like Santacruz, pity to hear yours was stolen.

[apsilon]

May as well add mine while this thread has some activity. Full specs in this thread: http://forums.farkin.net/showthread.php?t=41054

[piker]

That makes me shed a tear.....very similar setup (on bling level) to my stolen baby. I bet it rides smooth as!

I have a near new Float RL AVA w/pro pedal that i used to swap out for the 5th coil from time to time. Seeing as the bike was stolen with the 5th on it, if any heckler owners are after an excellent air shock for this frame, let me know.

[apsilon]

I know how I'd feel if I lost my bike, even with it fully insured, so I can imagine how you must feel.

[Refreshinglygood]

Blur 04 XT all over, 5th air, fox talas RLC

Heckler 0?, (seond hand frame), bits and pieces from around the shed, Recon, 5th air

The only problem that I have, is that it is always a hard job figuring out which one to ride

[treggs]

Nice rides... I like the heckler in white.(White is the new black IMHO)

On deciding which one to ride, you could sell em both and build up a Blur LT... That should solve your problems :D

that is insanely hot
considering selling my 06 dh comp frame and getting a SC v10.... but i'm poor now the bike shop took all my money ;)

[Refreshinglygood]

if there is a buyer, I'd be willing to talk,

but I would only replace with a Santa Cruz of course

[Sov]

I bought a Heckler second hand about two weeks ago. It's pretty specced out, a bit on the burly side but not too noticable until I get off and push:o

The Super Ts are probably a bit overkill for the front end but feel great, and slacken the head angle nicely too.

Coming off a hardtail, it feels really different and I reckon it needs softer springs. Still love it tho.

[Refreshinglygood]

it likes to be thrown around doesn't it.

pretty easy to climb as well

[maniacinc]

Sweet! I love Santa Cruz, that first black V10 is one of the nicest ive seen. Ive got a bullit but still upgrading a few things.
