Demo 9 : I'm a how many bar now?
My old Super 8: GET OFF (Then it would proceed to buck me into the trees, or toss me onto the pavement. Bad Karma from that bike)

The only xc thing about my stuff is the saddle.Karpiel-I'll show up whenever I get done.
Bruiser:

Huh, mine is great, Ive put it through hell over the last 2 years, countless miles, and 6'+ hucks to flat, blew the shock up, busted a wheel, but hey, these things happen, fixed, not a single problem since... whats wrong with yours?
Mine too. But I have no idea what it says about me...
Not so general:
My bike is in pieces, and so is my life.

I think the more important question is - What do you do with your bike?
I respect a frequent rider on a mediocre bike.
The infrequent rider with an expensive bike makes me feel good too because I usually end up passing these pansies.
Norco - If you have a bike, i'll ride with you, i'm not choosy
Jamis - My warrenty sucks, just hope that my rep forgets about me so he feels bad and treats you well

Trek - Why yes, I do live in the Mid-West.
Santa Cruz Bullit- Yes i'm a clone, but at least i'm out riding on something that works.
Specialized Enduro FSR- Need to find me in the woods? just follow my pedal chip marks and low bottom bracket bash guard marks.

Dean - of course no normal person can afford one...so you'd better be a damn good racer and get sponsored! (that's for Heidi!
I like to do the talking for my bike.
I thought I was imagining things when I test rode the Epic. I was bashing everything in sight..........

Ironhorse SGS: Hey, whatta ya know? Turns out I don't need a $6000 M1 to whip your ass...
There's a guy at work here that owns two Independant Fabrications mt. bikes, and one Ti Litespeed road bike.
The Ti Litespeed doesn't leave his trainer at home.
The IF w/ Sid World Cup & full XTR doesn't leave the roofrack of his unscratched, always perfectly clean, 2003 Chevy Tahoe (complete with 20" chrome rims).
The singlespeed, rigid IF spends its existance in his basement, strictly to allow him to feel like he's "hardcore" and "back to his roots".
Anyone got a creative label to give him? I've got a couple, but they'd get bleeped out by the Ridemonkey filters.

IH SGS Pro part x:
My girlfriend is smart, I am dumb. She paid less for her SGS Pro than I paid for my M1 frame at shop cost.

In response, X-rider posted:
I agree with X-rider. The Titus Supermoto DH costs the same as an M1 (less if you get it in PC), but it weighs less, is stiffer, arguably stronger, has an ano finish, and has some of the best dropouts I've ever seen. *I see Titus owners as smart consumers who made an educated purchase based on facts, not hype. They analyze every little detail and weigh all of the options available. *
Of course, I own a Titus

Fondriest, Van Deessel, any other hot new road frame...
1. I am willing to shell out thousands of dollars for something that is pretty much the same as everything else, but a pro road it in the Tour, so it must be good.
2. I know that I am 47 years old and have a family, but I still believe I have a shot at winning the tour, and therefore will act accordingly (complete a-hole).
3. I suck at life, and thats sad.
4. Anything Euro is cool. Even neon Speedo's on fat old dudes.
