They should've given it an ugly paint scheme. It's not ugly enough.
OMG, did Stryper get back together?
To Hell with the Devil.
My eyes are bleeding.

Actually it is hybrid of a few bikes. The main frame does not USUALLY have a gusset on it at all. It is a weird combination of a patriot 66 FR, 223 and patriot 7.
He always uses a lighter bike for the early season UK races.
As for the gear..its a yellow helmet, yellow and white royal jersey etc.

Probably the ugliest bike I've ever seen, but maybe that's what he was going for.
Maybe this.........Zark said:Bwahahaha! Oh crap thats funny.
I wonder how fugly the matching race gear is
I don't want to know why you had that picture on your computer Jeremy.
Just because I like to invite kids to my ranch, to sleep in my bed, and drink Jesus juice, and other stuff does not make it wrong. That's just ignorant.Matt D said:
Ha, sorry, that was best Jacko impersonation.
That pic came from a yahoo search.
You would not believe what all costumes came up from that search.
Evidently, hoes have a fondness for bumble bees.
Is anyone else reminded of the 80s band Stryper?
That's the funniest joke i've heard in a while.Jeremy R said:
BTW, Stryper still ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
he needs a custom yellow e13 bashguard.
Look at the helmet. Is he trying to launch a new fashion ?Zark said:Bwahahaha! Oh crap thats funny.

Damn, I almost yelled "Taxi!!" when I opened that pic...But I did like the Stryper reference - just need to get Stevo to spray on some leather pants and don a Jon Bon Jovi mullet wig...
Besides the awsome color, Anyone else notice the lower pivot? Interesting to me.
Ugly colors are cool I think but thats just me. I happen to enjoy the IH green as well.

Yeah, maybe the pedal feedback won't kick you over the bars now
original daytona....cool....that's an old one back from his GT days riding on a lobo.
maybe he hasn't gotten a new lid yet and that's the only one he has which matches his taxi uniform.

Hahah damn jeremy beat me to the eyes are bleeding thing. When i first clicked on that link that's all I could think of. Would I still ride it... Hell yes.
No, here's the "new" team kit:

Heh, that's pretty funny... who actually prides themself on portraying an image of glorifying alcohol consumption? Just another buck-toothed pommy geezer...
Yes, we need more clean cut down hill riders.
in action, NPS #1 (Ae Forest)
i like the kit better then last years
yet it still looks better than a Turner with a sticker kit....
you know it wouldn't be *so* bad if the rims were black.

You're just bitter cuz he can get drunk and beat the piss out anyone on a dh bike. It's drunken wankers like that who make the sport fun.
And if you want to criticize riders for their substance abuse, probably 3/4 of the red bull riders are stoners, hell, it's a safe bet that 3/4 of any downhillers or freeriders in general.

Maybe so, but do they glorify their substance abuse?
I don't care who takes what, but to play up such a habit to create a unique element to your persona is pretty weak.

For what it's worth your current World Champion holds has his MBA and has an undergrad in engineering. Nico was no stoner/drinker either. That's the cool part about downhill though, you can work hard, be talentless and do okay!
If you have talent AND work hard though, you might just win 10 world championships...aka, nico...

well it doesnt really anger me that hes a drunk, hell i cant even drink for like 5 more years but its his attitude and the way he carries him self. and no he certainly is not the fastest in the worldscoundrel said:
each to his own, right?
what if people just wanna have fun? they race a bit, have a laugh, and a few beers, or joints. So what? it's just a sport.
If 3 people will ever had an influence to the sport it'll be Palmer, Vouilloz and Peat. Like it or not, but it's people like him and palmer that bring/keep the fun in.
Hell if everyone would be like Nico, all arsed up, wearing lycras and checking the telemetric results at the end of the day, I wouldn't be riding anymore. I like the post ride drinking and fooking about just as much as the riding itself!
It's a sport yes, but it's just a hobby as well.

I don't think that's the issue, well at least from my point of view it isn't. I just have problems with the images protrayed in MTB media by a few riders, glorifying stupid "rock star" king of behaviour. I guess it helps them sell their image and products, but do we really need it?BadFastard said:
