Literally my dream bike. So nice having a bike completely fitted. **** I'm so high on glue right now.
I keep thinking I want a 27.5" Santa Cruz or something but then I realize I'm not jumping or hucking anything at my age. So I just go enjoy a 45 min ride in the woods.
Have you tried one? Modern bikes ride...different. Today's trail geometry, bigger tires/wheels, and improves suspension just conquer everything.
That said, maybe you really don't want one...might make your local trails too easy.
I think if my dad gets a new bike, he might get bored...I think I've posted this before, but he rides a 90's Klein Mantra.
Now THAT Was a Bike: 1996 Klein Mantra Pro - Pinkbike
No other bike promised so much, yet delivered such evil. Behold the Klein Mantra.www.pinkbike.com
Birthed in 1996, the Mantra was one of the hottest, most lusted-after models of its time. But let me tell you, from first hand experience, the Mantra was, and still is, a bike to be feared. Should you run across a Mantra (and there are still plenty of them floating about), whatever you do, DO NOT attempt to ride one down any kind of hill. Not if you cherish your collarbones. Consider this a public service announcement with a backstory.
Given that riders of modern bikes view them as unrideable death traps...I imagine things would get a lot less exciting on a new bike.
Looks great!
Still gotta wait a few weeks over here for the 1st ride of the season.
Thinking of pulling the trigger on a Fitzik Antares but can't decide which one. Want an open version but not sure if my Domane will fit carbon rails.
