Trek - My wife let me spend $400 on a bike.

Schwinn - I'm saving up for some Bell accessories

LiteSpeed- I don't have a girlfreind to tell me not to spend this much on a bike

Specialized - When I crash I check to see if the bike is ok, before I look at my compound fracture

Next - It's not a huffy, honest

Huffy - I leave busted tubes on the trail, and ride in flip flops

Single Speed - I walk up hills when noone is looking

BMX bike - My next accessory is a neck brace




Please add some more!!!

Whatchoo talkin' 'bout?? I've been to the factory. They actually *do* use Elmers Glue. It's the industrial strength, though.

That's funny since the designs have some things in common but ride completely different:)

Maybe:

Banshee: I really, really like the word gusset. Gusset, gusset, gusset. What's "refinement" mean?

Single speed: riding this bike is hard core, and it builds strength, skills and speed. In fact, if I had a bike with gears, I would actually be going fast right now. Excuse me while I go look for my kneecap.

LOL- yeah, that word seems to be one with Banshee or beefy, beefy, beefy. ;) Not a bad thing, of course.

The only thing I feared about this thread...that someone would make a comment about a particular bike and someone else, who owns said bike, would get offended. :(

Hopefully nobody gets too upset about any comments made. As far as I'm concerned, say what you want about my FSR/XC...it works for me and I love it.

But in Banshee's case I don't necessarily think it's a GOOD thing either....those bikes make me wonder why the need for all those gusstes.:confused:
