Default The Mud's new 4X machine!
Picked up my bike today and couldn't be happier with the way it rides and looks. Adrenaline bikes did a great job building it and thanks to Neil and Dave for making this happen. Neil went above and beyond to get my bike finished today so I could ride it at Fontana.

I headed out and met up with Destroyer, and Sharky, Gil Caz showed up later in the day. The whole day of riding I couldn't believe how great the bike handles! and the overall build was partially influenced by Lee, Ricky, Bob, and Dave. Thanks guys! Surprisingly I didn't have any crashes today which was great- but did come close when my foot slipped the pedal at the tabletop. I can't wait to race 4X!!! The bike came in at about 28.8 pounds built heavy.

I'm jealous. That is a hot bike, is that a candy paint job? Definitely one of the coolest colors I've ever seen.

I guess its a candy without an undercoat because you can see right through the paint. Its cool because you can see the brushing of the steel.

Congratulations!
Feel sorry for the 4X competitor who tries to bump bars with you! (The kid is INTENSE).

Wish we could have seen it at Orange BMX. Next time....
