Worst bike company site ever?
- Thread starter Rip
- Start date
I think that very well could be...It has to load something every 5 seconds.
at least you dont have to have your head mounted crooked to read stuff on it. check out koxx.fr ... trials is goofy and silly enough, why does the world's leading company have to go and put that site up.
Whahaah thats nothing.
Chek this one...
www.bombproof.nl
These guys are total asses and theyre so full of themselves allways talking about how good they are and how they fly their bikes instead of jumping them, and you should hear m about how company's like Cortina have stolen their linkage design and this one time they were threatning this guy on a Dutch forum to change his signature "Fly or die" because they had patended it. Hahaha these guys are really something.
Here this pic will really make your day.

He IS 6' 6".
And the pic is just funny as hell. Chek the huge 4 inch drop the guy is doin wearing full armor on a 30kg "bombproof" dh bike.
These guys are just pethatic and theyve become the laughing stock of the Dutch bikey scene, well except for some XC fanboys maybee who think they are totally hardcore.

looks like the lads from bombproof in the netherlands may have their heads jammed a little too far into the bucket... on their site, in the pictures section there is a photo of a bloke going AROUND a jump...
GO HARD OR GO HOME (and smoke 14 dozen cones)

I usually don't like to openly diss, but those bombproof guys are huge p*ss*es.
Actually, I am curious about one thing. In their info page, they mentioned how they are "three maniac downhillers from the lowest country in the world, The Netherlands." and "have experienced national glory reaching first place podium scores in national championships Downhill."
Considering the highest point in The Netherlands is 321 meters, is there even a DH championship?
As a matter of fact there is a Dutch DH championship but its not in Holland, we ride mostly in Germany, Belgium and France.
The scene is pretty small offcourse but its OK I guess.
When the Bombproof guys were reaching first place podia they were like the only three contenders but they dont really seem to mind bragging about it anyways.
Nowadays even the Juniors will wipe the floor with those guys with one hand up their nose but since I havent seen them at a single race ever they probably still think theyre the best. At least thats what theyre allways telling everyone.
Apart from those losers we do have Be One plus some really great World Cup riders coming from Holland like Bas de Bever (Be One) and Anneke Beerten (Specialized USA) so dont be fooled by our country being flat.

Well, you can take my word.... Kev is absolutly right about this..
I'm from holland as well, and the bombproof gays uh.... guys, and especially Erik de man, are losers!!!
He's is suggesting that he's the best dutch rider period.... and in my opinion an average rider will smoke his arse!!
But besides this, the biggest problem is, that he's terrorizing every ducth forum with his BP crap and thumb words.
He's importing IronHorse to holland... And that's to bad for IH... because this way they'll never sell a bike in the netherlands... That's a shame... the sunday is such a nice bike!!
Cheers

Can I order those tights from the webstore? Those are soooo pimptastic!
We should not underestimate the power of Bombproof though! They are the first to have used the VPP design... actually they are the inventers of it!
so they say.....
But 30 kg (which is like 5000 pounds) of fence aluminum is just a little bit over the top for doin' 3" drops.
So we don't produce any good DH rigs.... we do have a lot of other good products to offer the rest of the world! Like cheese and uhm tulips!

1998 Outland VPP:
Outland uses a "virtual pivot point" (VPP) suspension design on this bike. It is named since the suspension design "pivots" in space not at an actual structural pivot. This is accomplished using a lower link mounted under the bottom bracket and a large upper link mounted to the shock and pivots from the seat tube. The rear stays are CNC machined out, looks like a lot of aluminum chips left over from that job!! The VPP design has recently been used again by companies such as Santa Cruz and Intense. The Girvin fork is probably not something that would have been used on the bike but I think it goes well with the rear linkage

i dont mean to diss, but come on... these guys havent left the "drawing board" for about 8 years...
