Hey guys, um, you can't link to pictures on MTBR anymore I keep getting a big white box with a message saying "sorry, you may not link to images. Comsumerreview.com"

Just post the link.

Anybody notice the table the 888 is on, or the one behind the Fly for that matter? Those are Lifetime tables and are utter pieces of poo.







Sorry wrong forum, I worked on my senior design project with Mity Lite tables, they obviously are superior to those crappy lifetime tables.

OK, now I know what will replace my DHR in the next yr or so.

Thank you Mr Turner for designing bikes for us short folk. Looks like my DHR will new get paint ( Candy Orange ) and a rebuild for 05 while I wait for the Highline to come out and into full production.
I heard its going into its second year of production already



LOL

Funny.....

..... but are the Da Vinci bikes Horst link? I cant tell from the pics.
Yes they are Horst link bikes and I think it was licensing that prevented them from importing them to the US, but I heard rumors about the bike possibly coming to the US sometime in 04. I don't know what the plan is for 05.

A Turner fanboy posted that elsewhere in RM, its not my doing BTW....

I sat on one last year at Interbike, with the tall 888 at least, that design didn't have a ton of standover height. I suppose with the lowering crowns, a boxxer, or the new Fox DH fork it would though. I don't know if or what the changes are for 05 on the Devinci's.

Cool. Ive seen a few in canada, but never got too close, or a chance to sit on them.

Yea, ive seen that pic from MTBR.

Ive seen an 05 fold out poster for Devinci, and they have 3 of those as freeride bikes, and one spec'ed to the teeth as the World Cup Dh bike. I think it came in the new TwentySix mag......

I really liked the DV from last yrs info. No DVs in the US though. I would be running a 7" Dorado so hopefully the SO would be in the 29" range. I know there is more to it then SO but when you have a 28" inseam you realize it real quick....

I heard rumors this year for US FSR DV, so don't be so sure...

haha...you delete the wrong sticker ;) you took out the SRAM one that was on the chainstay, he was talking about the one on the seatmast ;)

Sams been cutting the R out of the Sram stickers and putting that on his bike for much of the season this year.

Another shot...wow!
Edit: Looks like a shorter travel version? For 4X maybe?
Edit2: héhéhé...I wasn't fast enough in correcting my post. Thanks Syadasti

Why would they display a mtnx bike with a 7 inch fork? That bike looks sweet but looks overkill for mtnx, im thinking it looks sweet for lighter downhill use.

The orange one has a shorter romic shock on it while the 7" one has a longer avy on it...

White one = FR

Orange one = MTX

edit: It looks like you can rotate that little shock piece for shorter or longer stroke shocks, interesting

Im assuming these are the flags for the Titles this bike has won that are on the seat stay. Australian National Champs, US Open?, and Canadian National Champs. Well if thats supposed to be the Canadian Flag then they screwed up and put the Austrian flag on.

Argh, they abandon the FSR link, thats why they are coming to the US. Same thing happened with the jamis line last year...
