[mshred]

this is all sounding good to me so far

 

[no skid marks]

Brooklyn Race-Link
Fox 40s
XTR/Saint brakes
Hadley rear,Hope front hubs.
I already own this,would love it made from Titanium though,and would love to whack 07 888s on it.

or

Lahar Mk9
this one I will get in aprox 1 week,will spec it same as BMW.

or

Wouldn't mind the new Specialised with their lil tripple forks but I could whack Mavics on the Lahar and a slightly shorter shock and I'd have a better bike only weighing a touch more if at all.

always wanted a Titanium hardtail,would probablly just copy my cromo Orange with a BMW park drop outs.
But that gearboxed prototype hardtail by um was it Nicolli looked cool.
Big travel Tandem could be fun also,a few DH companies have made some for fun,looked cool.
I just get my dream bikes,you only live once.

 

[mshred]

yea, i agree, but its a matter of money for me.

[erikkellison]

Assuming my wrist didn't hurt at all, and I could ride, but it still had the Ti plate in?
Intense 6.6 (or perhaps the Nicolai Helius FR that I own, tough call)...
Marzocchi Z1 Light, black lowers
Chris King Ti Headset
Hope Mono M4's w/ carbon lever blades, carbon resevoir caps, ano blue rotor spiders and piston caps.
Thomson Masterpiece seatpost

Middleburn R7 cranks, somehow mated to an XTR external BB (not sure if that's possible...)
Shimano MX-30 pedals (wish they had Ti spindles though...)
Sram X.0 shifters and rear derailleur
Shimano XTR Front derailleur
Wippermann stainless steel 9spd chain

[MaD666MaX]

rainy day+weightweenies.com+couple hours checking catalogs and internet=what my dream bike would look like

 

[Kntr]

....D

I second that but orange front and black rear.

My second choice would be my current FLY.

 

[SuspectDevice]

I already have a dreamy downhill bike, but I would really love a BCD Inedible, as it would be some sweet ying to my R9 yang, as it is pretty much the completely opposite approach to winning races. If I had any disposable income I would totally pick one up.

 

[Cash-Money]

i'd love to have a 29er BCD with a 29er Domain, and some 29er 729 wheels
160mm F&R

 

[the F.H.B]

Got to be the Lahar mk9, most stunning and innovative bike I've seen in ages.
Also the Astrix Havoc, I've had one for a few months now and im loving it!

 

[BJ-]

Lahar MK9 with CCDB/Ti Spring, Fox 40 with Direct Mount top crown, Deity Components, Carbon Juicys, I9 Wheelset, 823s, 50/50 Pedals etc.

or Sam Hills current gold sunday...

 

[TheMontashu]

an orange 224 in black with a DHX air and a boxxer
With red industry nine enduro wheels with dt 5.1D rims and red anod hope 2 piece roters
outboard middleburn cranks
formula puro brakes
X0 short cage and X0 shifter
XTR cog
LG1 With red quarter bash guard
E13 ali stem and monkey light DH bars
I beam carbon post with Ifly saddle
egg beater dual Ti pedals
kenda nevegals 2.3/2.5 with stans
red wippermen chain and ti bolts all over the place, the thing would be like 30 pounds

 

[Mountain_Dewd]

I dream of a pro mechanic to take care of my bikes and keep em dialed 24/7

 

[Str8OutaBallard]

Rotec RL9 gearbox prototype...

I saw the gearbox when Sully brought it in to the DHZ... I was ordering my new 6.6/talas 36... Sully said it'd be on a frame at Interbike...

I'd just use parts from my other bikes... dh40, hadley/mag30 wheelset, saint derailer (custom axel turned on lathe at work, fits hadley hub)
