    Is purchasing a pure DH bike worth it?

    yeah, looked at the furious. buying over there saves a little bit of cash. not much tho. big difference would be the 2020 frame.

    Is purchasing a pure DH bike worth it?

    Is purchasing a pure DH bike worth it?

    looked into this. approx price is roughly $100 a day plus insurance. after two weeks of riding, its roughly a 1/3 of a price of dh bike.

    Is purchasing a pure DH bike worth it?

    Morning all, Got a trip coming up the whistler this year - and have been advised that having a bigger dh bike will make the trip that much better in riding the park. What I'm trying to understand is the state of DH in Victoria and Australia in general. My observation is that the closest and...

    What do your kids ride?

    appreciate the reply. to give more details, the cheap balance bike we gave him didnt last long. so there is probably a bit of catch up to do. but mind you - im not being a biased dad - my son is pretty capable. (walked at 9 months - has for fear) my best guess is that he will quickly master...

    Thoughts on this Bike?

    yeah wasnt sure how much the other parts were worth. im pretty new to the whole mtn biking business. actually just had my 1st ride ever in whistler 2 weeks ago, and now im basically hooked. looks like it will be much cheaper for me to use some canadian connections that i have rather than...
