That falcon is a beauty

. agree normally not a fan of '80's ATB's as they look 'of their time' but that's fantastically 'right'.

Re: Re:

Gravy Monsters 1986 Falcon K2 , no build thread but a found as thread HERE

I love this bike, raced it at mayhem this year and had a right laff on the old beast until a puncture and epic tube snag 100 yds from finish line, Ok it may not be a pinup bike but try finding another not the usual run of the crap falcon are famous for ...

Ok, Hands Down this has got to be the Winner for me, Yetis and Goats are nice, (really Nice) but we seen it all before, (especially the Yeti.)

This on the other hand is an exception to the general rule, a basic bike (where we all started im sure), its a couple of Decades Old, In really great condition, not just being used but actually raced. Not top of the range, but working and looked after, and Photographed really well too, (and no studio required)

Christ it deserves to win, if only for the fact its a grass root job with solid axles.

No Wallet wave, elitism, "Business Touting" Vote this Month...................Im Voting for the End User and the Real Deal.

Nah, You made your own kinda "COOL" with the pic of you riding that bike mate.

If im honest it should be used as an Inspirational Photograph to promote the website some how.....? It Demonstrates Retro at its Best to the widest of Audiences IMHO.
