i gotta 06 or 07 (forget) Norco Bigfoot, stock as a rock. blasted around dandy mountains a few times but dont ride it nearly as much as i was planning on when i bought it...
i miss my BMXs but im too tall for em there just not comfortable to ride no more! when i was a bit shorter i had a GT Robinson Rebel which i rebuilt with various quality parts, was an awesome bike to ride but unfortunatly was stolen only a few weeks after i finished building it. Also Had A GT Dyno i bought to try my hand at flatland, my number 1 trick was falling over the bike and landing on my head! yeh i didnt really have the balance for that!

Giant Talon
Was something in the vicinity of 1700 bucks just over 18 months ago and frankly, it's a great bike. I know some of you spent 8g's on your bikes but I like mine
Pics below, plus obligatory battle damage. I quite enjoy falling off it It's a cross country bike for gravel/forest, not a downhiller. Hasn't stopped me trying tho...
Yes, that's a 44 gal drum of race grade methanol.

I just got my bike on Sunday.
Malvern Star XCS 7.0
I had a look at pretty much all the brands, the Giant Alias was proberly only the other bike that was close to the MS, unless you went over the $1k mark.
Loving it so far, although I need to go back and get the brakes readjusted... apparantly your not suppose to squeeze the brakes when the wheel/disc isnt there, as the piston (hydrolic brakes) move to far out, now the pads are rubbing against the disc, now it needs to be re-bleeded? Not sure, I'll find out anyhow.

Yeah you could probably pick up a VR4 for this sort of money Jon.
But hey, you have to have an addiction whatever it is..
Anyone else riding nowadays? Dan?

Sorry for the thread dig, but I love MTBs as well. Here's my stable atm.
'09 Specialized FSRxc. Now built for AM duties, good reliable bike.
Recently sold this, bought as a frame and done up to race the WA series last year, was quite fun, 8" travel front and rear. '02 Specialized Bighit.
This is my full custom daily for work when i don't drive the cars. '10 Dobermann Pinscher DJ. Completely handwelded in a small boutique factory in Canada, nice subtle single speed and fully rigid. Completely custom, but most of it is from the Deity catalogue. 11.3kgs.
And this is my current project which will be for AM/a little bit of DH fun. '10 Yeti ASR-7.
to put it short, specs are '12 Fox Talas 36 Kashima coated 180mm 20mm QR axle, '12 Avid Codes 4 pot, Saint 170mm cranks, RockShox Reverb 125mm travel post with a Fizik Gobi seat, X9 10sp rear carbon fibre der, x0 10sp shifter, Straitline 24th cog on a e thirteen guide.
Currently just waiting on the wheels to be sent from Crank'd Cycles in Townsville which they built as well ( Mavic 721 rims on Chris King 20mm front hub, and Chris King 12x142 rear hub. ) and it should be all sweet to go!.

wow, some pretty nice rigs on here!
Here's what I attempt to ride when I get around to it, which is not very often mainly just try to get a bit of a ride in down at the skate park.
2011 Kink Apex, completely standard. Pretty good straight out of the packet, and I don't ride enough anymore to justify upgrades haha
