Huckable All Mt Frames

I completely agree. The new RFX isn't much heavier than a Spot and is better suited for drops compared to the Spot.

 

Mine comes right at 42 lbs without trying to keep it down, There are some considerable areas I could drop some good weight. But I just dont care that much, rather lose some weight fromt he most important place, My fat stomach

 

Giant Reign coil version, you will be fine with that..
My friend hucks it off 15 footers.

 

Does it have the same look?
Can I test one out?
:?:

 

The new Uzzi looks a lot like the new Tracer VP but beefed up.
Maybe I can meet you at the loop on Thursday with the new Uzzi. We are not really doing demos with it yet it is still a prototype.

It has all the best of the Slope style and the socom looks all in one.

 

HighJACKER !!!!!!!!!!! do you have any medium trail type bikes I could demo jason?? maybe a 5.5

 

hey ricky, talk to lee http://www.socaltrailriders.org/forum/market-place/23557-intense-5-5-sale.html#post363109

just remember seeing this earlier :?:

 

[-o-] SORRY bro! hehe I'm in the same boat as you are right now, I thought my Intense 6.6 would be too weak for hucking since I find the rear triangle a little flimsy unlike the slopestyle version. but then I may be wrong #-o

 

Think Chumba is coming out with something new for 09 that might fit the bill.

Think a lot of companies are releasing 09 stuff during interbike so just wait a couple of month and you can get them.

Just look for a 5 inch bike that has beefy chain stay, linkage, wide BB and pivots.

 

yeah im not planing anything crazy for my new trailbike I just like it capable enough to have fun on, the slopestyle is a freaking awsome bike I just keep seeing more and more of them.

I really liked mudmans XCL and I know that thing is capable of jumping

 

Jamis Parker II. It should be perfect for what you want. And then I could try it and see if it would work for me.

I have always liked the parker as well, but someone was giving me a bad review on it I forget who??? I just wondr how it climbs

looked up specs
36 lbs for the parker I which is the most trail oriented ,, ouch

 

Yea, that was the problem I had with it. I also want a little more than the 4.5" of rear suspension. The price is right though...

I think there are some new bikes on the horizon that will be good: Fisher Roscoe, Mongoos Nugget and others I'm sure. I just don't want to wait and I don't want to pay too much.

Have you given any thought to the Banshee Wildcard?:?: Looks decent, and in my experience, Banshees are pretty tough!
Travel: 5"-6.5"(adj)
Weight: 7.5lbs
Standover: 27.5"
Depending on suspension setup, BB height is between 14.5" and 13.5". And it has ISCG tabs. Check it out.

i might be selling my IH hollowpoint mtx pretty soon to make room for a better fitting bike since mine is a small with a 50mm stem... i've pedaled up mt. lowe, chantry, willow, up to blue jay, etc.

 

HEy Ricky, look out for me at Woodward if your tehre. You can take My bike for a ride and see how you like it. Remember, Im the guy that hit the spectator back in March that NOONE got any pictures of

 

It's too much of a trade off from all day comfortable squish to riding street and DJ. You will get lost in more than 4" in or so Kona howler and Cowan DS come to mind, but my next ride will be a Black Market or shonky, damn I miss BMX sometimes.

 

Check out pinkbike.com they have a sneak peek of the 2009 Intense Uzzi http://www.pinkbike.com/news/2009-intense-uzzi-2008.html

 

that raw one weighs just under 36lb in 7" travel mode... not bad for a prototype and Jeff is gonna try and shave weight off it... i want one :bang:

 

If the MKIII is strong enough the deals on them are pretty good. If I thought it was strong enough for me that's what I would probably buy.

Have you considered the Kona Dawg? That's another one on my list.
