damn good lookingbike.

they should have let the name die and re-badged it under a new brand.

Army would be cool and has good logo possibilities. hell, keep the icon that sits to the left of the "K" and do the same effect for the A. anything is better than that name.

Is it just me or does the head tube angle look steep? Looks great, I like it better than the old one

I guess the front end looks steep as the bb looks a tad high to acomodate for the sag... not shore though, we'll have to weight for the geomtry chart

looking good, the new decals are very blah though. The originals had this very clever, euro-modern look that went well with the bike. These plus the 08 marzocchi graphics make me puke a little bit in my mouth.

Your face.
Questions:

Have they addressed the massive chaingrowth from the old design?

Can you run under a 40tooth right now and still be able to pedal it?

Are the welds stll going to have bubbles in them? Can;t tell you how much that impressed me on mine. :/

I personally haven't ridden one yet, I'm waiting on the feedback.

This one comes heat treated as a standard option, as opposed to the old one having heat treating as a surprise "maybe yes maybe no" option.




never gets old.
