post your 2010 rides!
- Thread starter FOXROX
- Start date
i have only had one ride on it at the Mo but initial impressions are good. planted and active. tracks really well. as u already know, the MK1 is already amazing with square edge bumps. the elka just makes it that bit smoother...
i have not really fiddled with anything yet. just put it on and ride!

Couple o' mine.
Errrrr I hate you. 
My GT rep has been stringing me along for 5 months trying to get me a fury. I finally got too anxious and got another Morewood. I would have loved the fury but for what I was going to pay for it I wasn't ready to wait another 5 months.

I'm not jealous of your new GT fury at all, sure it's looks light, strong, seems to have a cracking geo and immense paint but is it really any better than my 10 year old chameleon with leaky Z1's and bent wheels?
oh right yeah it is, gutted for me. Enjoy being (for now at least) the only one on the mountain with one, its looks lightening quick just sitting there.
That lapierre looks pretty swish too.

Nice bike love the demos look low and mean!Team Chainsmokes Flagship Rig:
The white/red TLD grips will be here Weds. Sitting on the spare wheelset with the Dans, waiting on the Profile/EX823 to be built up with Betty's.
You will love the dirty dans and the muddy marys I have 1 wheelset with marys and 1 with dans and if its NASTY the Dan goes on front if its REALLY NASTY then both dans as well as they are predictable and handle really well on hardpack if needed wich is saying alot for a spike...
Nice ride though!!!!!
SAWEEEEEET! Yeah Troy has a few as well he and the big boys been riding that hes down to rock... So we'll have a full bag of trails to rock...
Picked up my new ride at Walmart last week.......

The welded seam on the top tube is pretty horrendous, but for the most part the welds look really nice.

Yeah you can't really beat the build kit for the price. Overall I am impressed with the build quality of the frame, its not perfect, but its pretty good. Although I do not have any real ride time yet (hopefully this weekend) I am happy with the feel of the bike. They slackened/lengthened the geometry slightly for 2010, so thats a plus. Combined with a rearward axle path and pedaling efficiency similar to my 4" trail bike I think this will be a killer race bike.
Heres a crappy side picture I took with my cell phone the day I built it up... I'll try to take more legit photos this weekend.
my 2010 ride i got dialed in just need my TI spring and i'll be set

Sweet looking ride... and from Quebec!Riding a xprezo Furax
Fork and shock are used but the frame is new . Got a chance to do a few runs today on it
Double dose of Transition for 2010:
- V2 Covert with Hammerschmidt, 36 TALAS & Crossmax SX
- TR450 with Deemax
- V2 Covert with Hammerschmidt, 36 TALAS & Crossmax SX
- TR450 with Deemax
Thanks! It's a huge upgrade from last year.
And yeah, you can definitely tell there's some shared DNA between the two frames.
What is the BB height for your older Demo?
Hah that's so weird... a year ago I owned exactly the same two bikes, Legend Mk1 and a PDC Kingpin. Only ~60 of each ever made, what are the odds!here's mine...
update my MK1 with an ELKA and the BOS Idyllic.... MK2 coming later...
The Hardtail is a PDC Kingpin... do all bike! lovin git!
(Note: i need to lower the cockpit of my MK1 next... plus swapping my super heavy Gravity cranks, not the lite mind you, to RF Atlas FR! Woo Hoo!!!)
