This thread is for your 2009 season bike builds or parts changes. Since it is christmas I figured its a good time for this. You must post pics of the progress of the build.

Post away!

You def. just made this thread because I just asked you this question.
This may be true but, at the end of this challenge we must race before we are used to our bikes, first run of diablo down the backside, who ever makes it to indy cross first wins. We will start at the lake and Have someone say go. You can take any trail.

I will be stylin like usual, no surprise there.

No need for pictures with my bike. Stripped the Reign down last week, cleaned all the pivots and added lube, and am in the process of putting all the old parts back on there. John at Cycle Works is de-waffling the wheels and adding a spoke I broke in the Spring. At that point, it will be ready to ride. I am kind of one of those "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" kind of people, so no need to upgrade if my wallet can't take the abuse as it is...

Not saying it was broken. Some folks spend some crazy loot upgrading their bikes just for the sake of upgrading and having all the new, best stuff, even though the parts already on the bike work perfectly.

my 09 build is top secret as of now, im sure you guys will be reading about it soon tho. :D
So are we going to read about this in the downhill forum, just like that sam hill rumor about him riding on specialized.

I bet your new bike will be called the factory DNF.:cheers:

Why do you kids all try and keep what you're riding a secret. You're not a big deal, nobody even cares what you're riding. Grow up.

I am not telling anyone about my downhill bike for next season. This is the first time I am telling people that I am even getting one. I know nobody cares.
