Bikes You Started On


Recommended Posts

no pics, but it was a 96 GT Avalanche xc bike, 18" frame, rigid forks (as standard), cantilever brakes,1.9" tyres, 22" bars and 130mm stem. I did a years worth of comps on that bike and came 3rd overall, thats with no modifications (EG, still had triple chainrings and a seat)

I had an 06 T-Pro for my first bike, it rode like shite and the frame snapped after 6 weeks, twas amazing! (Was second hand though).

Barracuda Ghetto.

I'm trying desperately to find some pictures but I think I've lost them.

It was this frame (in khaki green) with Marin xc rigid forks, old school red Shimano DX rear vee with koolstop pads (the red and black ones), about a 2mil thick layer of tar on the rims and instead of a bashring I had a triple ring set up whereby the middle ring and the big ring were the ones protected the 'granny' ring.

It was diabolical.. But it's what I learnt to gap hop on :P

All you kids with your shiny mods don't know your born! :D

I started out on a good old Shogun GIMP.

Modded it with super think v-brake cable, which is mega strong. and grinded the seattube on the top of the frame right down, and then it looked like a monty.

But a crap one :lol: .
