whaddya guys reckon?
i just got osme avid juicy7s and middleburn cranks on it, and its lookin good. unfortunately i wont be able to ride it for awhile (cancer, months of chemotherapy) but its something to look forward to for when im fixed, im really hAppy with it.

im from the UK, so we dont see many of these over here, ive only been able to ride it a handful of times, but with all the weight so low down, it corners like its on rails

Nice ride, but more importantly good luck with the treatment.

 

[Matt D]

Wow, sweet rig! What rims are those? I can't quite make them out.

Best wishes for the chemo!

theyre Halo Tornado's on hadley hubs built with DTswiss alpine 3s.
makes a really nice, pretty light wheelset (built by 'mister mental' on here)

cheers for the comments

 

[66]

congrats. you will like the bike when it's time to ride it. I have one and it's amazing. What country are you in?

Good luck with the chemo.

 

[66]

im from the UK,

nevermind

 

[aidanwray]

nice, you got a pic of yours?

ive hardly seen any pics of em built up

 

[Zark]

That is really low standover, wow.

Good luck on the chemo, get better soon!

 

[CBJ]

Nice bike and I love the NYC components has made all the way to the UK - not you just need the pedals which I love. Hope you will be 100% very soon.

 

[OGRipper]

Nice ride, but more importantly good luck with the treatment.

Exactly.

I wanna ride that thing on the trampoline.

 

[66]

nice, you got a pic of yours?

Here's one.

 

[slang]

Hey man

wow. that must ride so nice with all the CG so low down. good luck with the chemo!!

 

[quadricolour]

Heal up quick!

 

[partsbara]

nice ride mate, and get well soon !!

 

[punkassean]

Nice Ride!

Good luck with your treatment, stay strong so you can ride that bad boy soon!

 

[MikeD]

Keep that bike in view as you get the chemo. Your desire to ride it should pretty much will everything into order...

Those things are gorgeous, at least in a functional way. Let us know how it rides when you finally get back on. I'd LOVE to get a few runs in on one myself.

And, umm, Mr. 66...good god...that's amazing...

 

[Brad23]

Here's one.

is that a nitro res on the WB fork?

 

[66]

is that a nitro res on the WB fork?

yup..

 

[lovebunny]

man i love those bikes so much. i wanted one even before i wanted a bb7. maybe ill get one after i get done with my bb7. good luck with the chemo.

True dat!!! I really like the blue color. You have alot to look forward to. I wish you the best!

66- which model WB is that, what's your thought's on it.

I'm looking at the PDC freeride w/ the WB DHR myself.

 

[stubby]

that bike is sweet, i love that color!
good luck with your chemo!

 

[wannabeabonedoc]

Nice bike man. But more importantly good luck with the chemo. My dad was diagnosed 2 days before christmas and did chemo from Jan to the end of March. He lost his hair, so I shaved my head the same day he took out the rest of his. Anyway, keep that bike in your mind, and it'll pass faster than you think. My dad said things start to taste like metal, but it passes. Again, good luck dude.

It's an '05 DH2.0. In short, it's a great fork. I made a very good choice in picking it. I'm going to do a review in the near future of the fork and frame.

 

[aidanwray]

nice dh1 you have too, i think ill invest in a ti spring just to neaten up the colour scheme then its 100% done!

 

[bc2002]

@#$% MAN! That's sweet!

Can't wait for the review. Either DH or freeride those PDC fella's look like they know what their doing.

Good luck on the chemo and keep the rubber side down!

dude! so am i! with a dhx air & some light bits, that would be a hawt ride - in theory, anyways. they're presently doing the first production run that should be ready pretty soon...

 

[Eurotrash]

really nice bike, never leave it out of your sight and it will help you come out fighting!
get well soon

 

[TamaSKA]

hooo that bike is different. i havent heard about this company yet

it must ride like a tomac204 i guess. pure dh racing

get well soon mate!

 

[jasonw111]

wow how much do those weight

 

[hooples3]

cool bike... good luck with your treatments!!!!

 

[aidanwray]

cheers guys.

im not sure on the weight. its not heavy, but its not really light.
maybe 42/43lbs ??

whilst im out of action for awhile, ive just started building up a new hardtail too!

you get the picture.... will be sweeet

 

[xy9ine]

i ran into a guy from pdc (riding the dh bike) the other day. really neat looking frame. nice & compact; passed the parking lot test with flying colorss. he said that they're shaving a good chunk of weight (he said a couple pounds) from the second generation dh frame - though we probably wont see it untill vegas. they're currently working on a production run of freeride frames - sounds like they should'nt be too long...

 

[aidanwray]

yup, im meant to be riding for PDC UK (the cancer gets in the way ysee, lol) so ive heard about this second gen DH one too. its looking good

 

[xy9ine]

cool. its kinda wierd that they're establishing a presence in the uk, while they're almost nonexistant here in vancouver. apparently half of the first production run of freerides (50 in total) is slated for the uk market. speaking of which, have you heard any feedback on the freeride that was built up by some uk team guy not long ago?

 

[escapeartist]

Sweet bike, looks like a ton of fun.Just out of curiosity...did you pick the color to match the trampoline, or was that just an added bonus?

Good luck with the chemo man, just stay strong its probably gonna suck for a while but just dont give up and keep looking at that bike. Sounds like that hardtail will be a sweet way to pass the time. Good luck and God Bless!
