I'd pick my bike over a girl any day (unless it's raining, of course).

I've thrown a leg over a Sunday before and they're definitely solid bikes.  If I was to get a race bike from one of the bigger companies it would most likely be Iron Horse.

Man ALMOST makes me wish I never sold my bike, but it was for ski money. Spent years working on it, back in the day a 03 Norco 4by.  Totally custom, but it's sale got me many days on the hill.

^then i take it downhilling and it will break on my first run haha. they are heavy for a reason, and even this isnt too bad. its a bit over 42 lbs. my brothers bike is like 50 haha. thats a little more geared towards freeride, but still...

nice bike dude.
id love to get into downhill, but i have no way to get a bike there and its soo damn expensive.

im contemplating whether to buy a new frame/get a back wheel laced up or just save my money for gas/insurance (im getting my license in like 2 months)

right now im on basically an older p.1 but not exactly

hardrock frame
06 dj2 forks
hussefelt cranks
single speeded
some shitty generic stem/bars
mavic ex325 front wheel (20mm hub)
ditch witch rear wheel with exploded hub, but i have a onyx and a formula hub that im eventually going to lace to my ex321 hoop i have laying around

i talked about that with somebody at my lbs. i guess the suspension design ont he lower end bikes (yakuza series from last year, which are still sick bikes, and up untill i found this out, i was going to buy one) have a weaker suspension design and when the break, its usually the swing arm that ends up taking the beating. he told me that 6 out of 6 they sold came back with broken swing arms. DW link is dope though
