Dick Quickwood Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 the first one looks better, other than that i dunno. one is an m10, one is an m16. maybe you could research the difference. Rebound is Lightning Quick (Unlike a Lot of the Sloppy Shocks Out There, That are Just for Show and about as Useful as a Bulls Backside) hahahha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveAustin Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Ox...I know tons about mountain bikes and yes...you should avoid both of these. Holler if you have specific questions or just use this thread...I'll check back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubsface Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 What do people have against kickstands? What? Is it cause all the cool kids in Willyburg are taking off their's? Christ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkonji Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Do you intend to use this bike as a mountain bike? Or just for rideing around the city and shit? If its the latter get a road bike, they are alot faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveAustin Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 ^ agreed. dubs...it has nothing to do with kids in da burg. kickstands have a nasty habit of falling down by themselves and making you wreck. I only have the tripod on one of my bikes...its a pure, go slow, fixie, style sled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanity Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 what a fucking dope job it'd be to design those... i was talking to the cat at the local bike spot (mostly road bikes).. and he was saying not to bother w/ a road bike for commuting types of use. He suggested the trek FX series.. both in terms of cost and versatility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overtime Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 yeah, i woudlnt go with either, i know a good bit bout mountain bikes, as most of highschool and after i was big into it. Like steve said, specific questions, holler.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quoted post for the prices theyre going for i could have guessed they were both shit bikes...i dont want to spend more than AU$200 which is like $US150...are you telling me those bikes are shit for that money ? if you think i could do better for the money...show me which one: http://sportsgoods.listings.ebay.com.au/Cy...ListingItemList (within 25Kms of postcode 2037( Theres only like 2 pages ;) )) its for riding around town but I want a mountain bike because sydneys a hilly city Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
