Show us your rides and rate the one posted above you!

Just thought I'd start a new thread for a bit of fun, i saw this on another site and it works well so here are the rules.

*Bikes that are ridden only no garage queens thanks *

1. Rate the bike posted above yours out of 10.

2. Add a comment as to why you gave that score ie. 8/10 i dont like bikes with the wrong stickers on

3. Add some photo's of your bike (clear photos please).

4. Add a bit of spec info.

5. No come backs on a review as it'll put people off giving an honest review it's prob just a differing opinion or a bit of constructive criticism. Keep everything lighthearted. You can give one response but only in emogies eg. :shock: :cry: :evil: :? (more than one is fine)

no random pictures let's keep it clean and on the subject.

Re:

I had to wait 3 days and got the example i gave

Oh all right 6/10

Discs and toe straps? Silver bottle cages clash with everything. And it's got different red bar ends. And a shock post? Other than that.............

89 Pioneer

All xt but a bit of a later crank. Built a couple of years ago out of Marin parts then slowly upgraded to this. I'm not precious, go for it!

Kyle, only just noticed

THM, I like toe clips and had them since forever.
What's wrong with clips and discs..
Shock post does also help a lot, you should try one.
Also do know the cages look shit, was thinking of some Bontrager ones.

Re:

At least this thread is taking off now!

To be fair with decent grippy flats these days toe clips aren't really needed.

Well it's taking off yepo.. I'm stuck in my ways and will keep clips.
