Ruckuatch

[Nelly]

Hey Guys,
Just wanted to post my bikes up. I've had the sasquatch for about two years it's pretty much stock except for the new rear wheel and fork upgrade/hand me down.

I've had GT only since june, its awesome its the first downhill bike i've owned. Does any one know how the weight of this bike compares to other downhill bikes? It seems light enough to me.

I recently bought the 888's for it, hence the hand me down to the sasquatch. I don't particularly think that there would be any issues with the strength of the head tube area, but if any of you know better please let me know.


Frame- 05 Norco Sasquatch
Forks- 06 Drop Off Triples
Wheels- Double/Single track
Cranks- Truvativ Hussefelt

very nice, iv heard the GT's are very smooth, is there a difference between double walls and mtx's?

The Doubletrack is wider at 39mm but is not welded like i think the MTX is. Not sure exactly just got what was in stock at the time, I'd rather be on the hill than waiting for parts.

The ruckus is great. But i havent riden much else to compare it too.

I busted my shoulder last week so i've only had one ride on the new forks. But they feel great, still need some dailing in though.

The old Grey Nurse is stealling the show i think. Perhaps you'd like more photo's of her?
