    My ‘94 Mongoose Amplifier (AMP) and YouTube star

    Very nice Amplifier built up. 🥰 I use a Risse Genesis oil/air damper on mine. This reduces the torsion of the rear triangle somewhat. In addition, the Risse Genesis damper has a better response than the original damper with the steel spring and the bike does not swing as much on the rear when...

    My crazy Titanium Bike

    Hi again ;) Now I dare to show you my Ti bike. 🤣 Bought the frame in 1997 from a bike-shop here in Cologne. The frame was a slow seller. The shop had this frame hanging on the wall forever. I think the frame hung there for at least 3 or 4 years. It was originally supposed to cost 3700 marks...

    Fat Chance Yo Eddy from 1992 (Team Colour)

    No, I never had such big tires on it. My biggest tire has 2.35" (Klein Death Grip). Never had tubeless tires on any of my bikes. I'm only collecting retro stuff. I don't use modern equipment. I don't like that modern china stuff.

    Fat Chance Yo Eddy from 1992 (Team Colour)

    It rides awesome. One of the best bikes I'd ever ridden. Most of the time I ride it on forest paths, gravel paths, easy terrain or tours. Tire width is 2.1". But the Conti Twister Supersonics look more like 1.9". On the Spinergys I had Hutchinson 1" slicks.

    GT talera 1994

    I like the GT Talera. Your Talera is in nice condition it seems. Nice colour also. I like it. A GT Talera was my first MTB my parents gifted me for Christmas 1991. Still have the frame in my basement.

    Mongoose Amplifier from 1993 (one of the first real full suspension bikes)

    To be honest, these bikes are a bit spongy. The rear end isn't particularly torsion-resistant and also not laterally stiff. But in easy terrain it works well and is not noticeable. But I like the look of it. To hell with lateral stiffness 😁 Regards, Olli

    Alpinestars Almega XTR (1992)

    The weight of the stem is 236grams on my scale. But the clampsize is to large to fit 1 1/8 fork shafts. You need a shim for that also if you wanna put it onto an 1 1/8 inch shaft. Regards Olli
