Where were you on or about the 20th???

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::beer:

 

I thought the same thing Doug...

 

I had never even heard of these bikes until that thread...now they come up in two different discussions? hmm...:lol: These things must be hot. :lol:

 

I wish they were hot in the OC...apparently only when you steal them out of someone's car....we have actually had these frames for the last 8 months and that is why we are blowing them out at cost! We have had one as a demo bike for the last year and everyone loves it....but seems people are afraid of the fact that this bike isn't real popular here in the U.S.....it's very popular in Germany!

 

I have to throw in my 2 cents here.... I've been riding an Edison LTD for 3 1/2 years, over 7000 miles, and it just had it's first fork service in December. It's been extremely reliable, with pretty basic maintenance needs. I understand the resistance to a "new" brand, but they're not going away, given their huge success in Europe and the reviews they constantly get here...The Golden Willow was just included in MBA's "Miles of Smiles" article (the ten most fun bikes we've ridden), and MBUK called the adjustable travel/geometry system the "holy grail" of mountain biking.

You can look at some of my rides and you'll know how capable a bike it is.... both climbing and descending.

Posthole works for Bionicon and posts here occasionally, anyone can ask me or him if you have any questions about the bikes. That price is a bargain!

 

We need more of this so this brand will take off !!! The bike has an incredible susupension and works better then many other popular brands. Don't be afraid to try new things !!!

 

Are you talking about David Hasselhoff?

 

We have three people riding Bionicons in our group up in L.A....

Here's me on the Edison, the same bike I climbed 9,800' on new year's day lapping Viper (video): http://www.socaltrailriders.org/forum/trail-talk/12211-rr-viper.html?highlight=viper

No, that's Japan you're thinking of

 

You are ridiculous!!! Can I have some of your skills?

 

Sweet drop!

It sounds like Bionicon is like many other bikes, such as Orange, who are widely known and respected everywhere around the world but here. Just the same, there are many popular brands in other parts of the country that simply aren't known here. In contrast, in other parts of the country, Intense, Ellsworth, and Turner are as rare as a covered wagon.

 

Always willing to share... come ride the San Gabs sometime!

Flying Monkey trail in Utah....

 

That is one sweet pix, talk about skillz :bang::bang::bang:
I have my eye on an Edison LTD (there was an 07' demo that got away from me on ebay a month ago #-o-the final sale price for the complete bike was $1,500...talk about the deal of the century!!!!)

 

Agree....once you ride it, you understand how it works.

 

I'm temped grasshopper Sherry...

But Nancy would leave me if I attempted to sneak another bike into the garage!.... seriously!!!!8-[

 

how much travel does the golden willow have again?

 

4.7" rear horst link, 6" front dual-crown. HT angle and travel adjustable on-the-fly from 68 deg/6" for downhill, up to 73 deg/3" for climbing (or anywhere in between)...

 

Watch for a Demo coming to you this February...Bionicon will be one of the many companies participating in the event.
