Built it up as a DH hardtail but having fun with it all over the place. Even with the Monster up front, with it's short wheelbase, this thing rides up on its rear wheel almost at will. Make of it what you will!

very nice!!! i bet that thing is a blast to ride with the monsters!

Man Burly hardtails are great! I hope I can get a new one soon I can post a pic of, but the FS comes first right now.

I agree this should be a STICKY
:D

what bike is that? um not sure where andrejs' been , yea i remember sein the first pics of his blue mm on mtbr. they inspired me to get a mm. i am forever thankfull. the new one is the one that looks 10x more hardcore i.e. the jr.t atomic rims etc etc (yes i kno the monster is 10X more hc than a jr.t but you gotta admit his newer one just looks WAY thicker.)

whoa! just noticed the STEM on that thing. GOOD LORD thats massive. whew!

Stickify this thread!!


Heh, that way I don't have to dig around when I get the pics I took of my bike tonight developped...

Anyway, here's an oooold (last feb. or so, it's been completely dessasembled and has sat as a frame at least twice since then) pic. of it...
Right now it's got some Raceface cranks, 24" rear wheel w/ Vbrake, no front brake, 24-7 bars, a super-ghetto 1speed setup, and some other doohickeys on it...

It's not particularily burly (actually, as pictured, it weighed about 45lbs...), but it's a hardtail, so 1 out of 2...

Jesus a few of those bikes look like they were assembled by a deaf/dumb/and blind mountain goat.

That pink 24/7 bike? with a yellow deemax and orange fork.. UGH
the one below it.. green DW's, gray frame, and red seat/chainring? WTF are you thinking!

that nicolai reminds me of something i've seen before... it's so strange... like deja vu.. i'm sure it will come to me thou.

That Nicolai makes me scared... It definately has an evil presence... ;)


Speaking of ugly bikes, what's with that damn orange one with the two toptubes?? What were they thinking when they designed that!? "Oooh, one toptube is cool! Let's make 2, that'll be DOUBLE COOL!!" :D ;) j/k

...indescribable ride. With the slacked head angle, small wheels, and short wheelbase, it rides like a BMX bikes that likes to be tipped over. An unusual feeling but boy is it fun! I think it's the closest "feel" you can get to riding a motorcycle without actually riding one. I know because riding my toy brings back memories of my motorbike days ;)

How'd you get it to weigh 45 lbs? I've got a Monster-T, Profile DJ cranks, 24" DW w/ 3-inch Kujos and it still only weighs 42 lbs. That must be one heavy heavy frame!

The frame weighs a lot. It's pretty much a big BMX frame (made by GackBMX). It's got a really long steel seatpost. And beyond that, I have NO IDEA how I got it soo heavy. That stem is pretty hefty, and those bars weigh a ton... I dunno. When I first picked it up I just about tore my arm off cuz I was expecting it to be LIGHTER than my FS bike...

*Edit*: Oh yeah... MAKE THIS A STICKY!!!

To answer the question about Andrejs,
he goes by rollie on dropmachine.
he has a super t, he has a monster t in his basement, it has too much travel (or so he says)
his first bike

here's his new one

What's the deal? I've seen a couple of Cove Stiffee's in this thread, but no Stiffee SL's. Those frames suck or something?

You must not be looking very hard. I posted a pic of my Brooklyn with a Mr T, way back in this thread. Granted a 4" Mr T isn't nearly as big as a 7" (correct?) Stratos.
