Default mi bicicleta nuevo_

Here is my new 06 Coiler Deluxe, size medium...all stock, i did swap out the pedals for some Crank Bros. Candys (gray) and threw on some Lizard Skin "northshore" lock-on grips. For those who didnt know, I had an 05 Santa Cruz Heckler that never let me down, but then for some crazy reason I sold it and bought a 29er SingleSpeed which I only rode for less than 3 months, I sold it today and the money is going towards paying off my Coiler. I must say that I am loving the way the rear suspension feels on the Coiler vs. my Heckler. I may wait awhile before upgrading the fork. I'll probably keep the wheels but will throw some different tires (gotta visit robs used tire store) on her and convert the wheels to Stans. I also have a new spring on the way for the rear, the stock 550 was too soft, so a 650 should be here tomorrow I hope!

It's good to have you back on the dark side of the force. Now break it in on the Santa Barbara Tunnel ride

thanks guys. ive had it out on the dirt twice so far and love it! not sure that im gonna make tunnel this weekend, but you can bet it will get broken in this weekend, probably on t&a.

dont be jealous of my awesome heater kid_a! lol, what a crappy place for a floor heater eh, gotta love the LBC. geocallo, the rear shock is a FOX DHXc 4.0...almost like the 5.0 but doesnt have the "bottom out control" dial.
