I am sure that he will eat those babies like coco-puffs. I really can't see that frame being a big hucker since it seems to have been designed as a pure race bike. I am certain that someone with that much talent and drive will only help push the innovation process.
sure, super t goes big.
He also has wack style. I do not enjoy watching him ride.
Rennie was made to ride a yeti DH bike. Tyler belongs on a banshee

Wow! How can yeti afford all of these superstars? Graves, Kintner, Riffle, Klassen. Thats quite the lineup.
Yeti products are anything but cheap. $649 is very expensive for a taiwanese made hardtail. I believe he was talking about the 4x frame...

damn yeti is going huge this year. i agree with chomps. he goes big, has no style and looks squirly as hell whenever he tries to add his horrible style to anything. remember guys not one single dh9 has broken since they went to the mono version 3 or 4 years ago thats a damn good track record
Well their frames might not be the best deal, but their complete bikes are priced pretty well.WheelieMan said:
For example a 575 Enduro20 spec bike retail price is $2600 with a Fox 36RC ($999 retail price). A Specialized Enduro with similiar spec retails for $600 more...
They must keep throwing new ones under Rennie cause he has to be rough on bikes...
That's cool. I have to disagree with you guys about his "whack" riding style. He rips it up pretty nicely in the new NSX video. He's kinda tall and lanky, which never helps you look too stylie. I have to agree that Rennie is a complete badass though.
The v10 was designed as a pure race bike too.spoke80 said:
Rennie no longer rides for yeti.Leethal said:
It was my understanding that the dh-9 held up for him with a few exceptions.
k lanky peeps look funny? watch e-bot ride he looks funny while not in the air but once hes up there he has mad steez
Plus he grew his hair out so he looks like a drifter rather than a fetus, so things are really looking up for Ebbett.dexter said:
Yeah but if the roller on the 303 gets muddy there's no way he'll have good style...nevermind...
:evil:
:evil:
yeah its so cool when he dead sailor's every thing he does. Mad style.biggins said:
yeah but he's big in Japan err... Canada!
marketingwise a good decision from yeti.
and why do people keep on downtalking the 303?
wait till it completed its first season, or at least demo/ride it once before making assumptions.

I would bet 20 dollars that he is riding for no salary. Just expenses to selected freeride comps and maybe some lame bonus package.WheelieMan said:
These freeride guys do this on a phone call...
"dude, I just need bikes and maybe some free hotel rooms"
to bad klassen is a superstar and few of us can acually judge him on riding skill....
Hate, Hate, Hate, Tyler has funky style, Hate, Hate, Hate /Tyler does have a funky style but he "goes big" and is probably one of the coolest "Superstars" to talk to. Haha, He would probably joke around with all you guys hating on his style.... My brother would tell you guys to go drink some Haterade. :evil:
its also wierd how people are judged / stereotyped based on a few video clips (namely the big hits) - its not really indicative of a persons full skillset, but people tend to pidgeonhole. i've ridden with tyler since he was a grom, and the guy is saturated with talents that extend beyond hucking. trail riding with him is an education; i've seen some amazing stuff. though he's a bit of a gumby, his style is all his own & i respect his ability to get the job done. gotta see if he's getting a 303 any day soon...Sir Happypants said:

Man, you all must be the sickest group of riders I have ever read about. I guess when you're at the top of your game style critiques is all you got.
hahaha, funny super t story. 2 years ago he was at interbike signing posters, my buddy, who's an xc geek, and didn't know who he was got a signed poster. tyler wrote: "Rip it like a Canuck", but it was pretty hard to read........my buddy looks at the poster and goes: "uuuuhhh, ride it love a camel?".....i thought tyler was gonna reach across the table and slap him, but he just started laughing. funny moment, i guess you had to be there...
Tyler Klassen is a homewrecker. And I saw him steal a lollipop from a little girl at Interbike.
Actually you are. You and Matt are in some Snowshoe section of a movie I can't remember, but you're washing your bikes.bizutch said:aggro, gnar...poo style...closed fist...drunken monkey...don't matter what Jedi style he uses....he's in videos....we're not.
either that is pure jealousy on your part...or just flat out rubbing it in my face...either way...I think I'm gonna cry!!!!profro said:
Sure I'd love to be in a MTB movie. Well you know I have been in "some" movies but those are for private viewing only... but I digress.
