The mini's of old are not nearly as strong because they had two sided calipers that were bolted together, so when push came to shove the calipers would seperate and cause the brakes to lose power. It was a VERY common problem and the main reason Hope Tech changed teh design.dhkid said:
How about a Commencal Supreme DH?
Or the Judge?
Not realy a fan of commencal. I'm not a huge fan of the geo, the chainstay is to long, I need a bike I can flick around nice and easy.Heath Sherratt said:
Like I said earlier, spend $50 on a gym membership, go the gym, get muscle, save money by not buying a stupid light bike.TheMontashu said:
My perents are getting a family membership to a gym pretty soon, but I still want a stuped light bike.ghettogt76 said:
i ran mini's on my last dh bike and never had problems( i weigh 165). i have xtr brakes on my new bike and they have just a touch more power although the feel is not quite as crisp. at your weight you won't have any problems, just run 8 inch rotors and don't look back.
So again, why are you getting a v10 if you want something to flick around?TheMontashu said:
What kinda trophy do you get for being little and riding a heavy bike?Bicyclist said:
Unless you either drop to flat all the time, or ride like a hack and are always breaking medium - light parts, you're cheating yourself out of knowing how much fun a light and flickable bike is.
Cause I can get them, the demos are to heavy, and the Cdale has a chainstay thats an inch longer.rideagainst said:
