Jolfa Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 wow. do you know if he still rides it then???. or has he quite and moved on to other things now??Last I heard he was riding for Diamondback but they dumped him.. Or something like that, been kinda out of touch with all things trials for half a decade As for Giants, I can account for 4 of them My mate Ali's from way back whenAnother, resprayed after the chainstay being weldedThen the 2nd respray when it snapped again in the same place My old #5And with a lick of paintAnd my new one, any excuse to show it off abit more All of the above used to be yellow, couldn't tell you the number of the first 2 though, think the 2nd one was #30something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peperami Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 yep. i honestly think there pants but they do the job :$Without being a snob, get a set of middleburn rs7's for it pronto if you can. Will make soooo much difference, its not until you try them that you realise how much the fsa's flex, and how much power you're losing. They'll round off soon anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
