Best post ever on this dying forum

 

[dylan s]

Looks like swoopy down tubes are making a comeback.

 

[Carraig042]

For some reason, I think it actually looks pretty good...

Devinci had one of the better looking bikes.........that one sucks.


Kidwoo nailed it. Might as well end the conversation.

 

[Dogboy]

devinci had one of the better looking bikes.........that one probably rides even better.

ftfy.

OMG, those are all the EXACT SAME bike!! They both have wheels, and shocks, and they are black!! They think they are fooling us but they are wrong!

 

[Uncle Cliffy]

Devinci es bueno.

LaPierre es feo.

And they both look like shlt because their designers are trying to force a dumb wheelsize into an 8" travel frame.

Not going to fall for it again lapierre. The guys at their comp tend to come up with some pretty idiotic suspension ideas.

 

[Mo(n)arch]

That thing is just straight ugly. They are doing it wrong.
Design devolution a la Lapierre:

 

[HardtailHack]

What is going on with the disc, why does it look like it's on this side of the caliper?

 

[jonKranked]

i think lapeierre wins the award for "most frequent complete redesigns"

 

[Mo(n)arch]

 

[TrumbullHucker]

def reminds me of one of those norcos.. the first and second generation DH frames were beautiful.. this one not so much.....
but thats just talking about how it looks
lets see how blink likes it on saturday!

 

[Fool]

In the Littermag trackwalk slideshow, Blinken-guy said they weren't on the bike for Fort Bill.

The bike is just like the display dessert tray in some faux fancy restaurant.

But did you arch your back like a lapierre or devinci? It's all in the technique yo.

Complaining about how something because of the way it looks, horses for courses remember some will hate it some will like it but the proof is in the pudding and it just won a world cup race on its debut can't be all bad surly.

I'd like to see what all your misses look like (thats if you have one) and if you do I bet some of them look like **** but they still ride good

It is the same as with bikes....some people are on a budget! But they will upgrade as soon as they can find funding.
