29ER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
all i see is large hospital bills, and then when I recover the wife will put me back in the hospital for trying to copy a kid ....
+1!!
This kid is good...and he wears a helmet
There is a guy in PE that rides a white Cannondale and he seems to be on his back wheel all the time.Saw him a few times in Cape road and near 5ways.
ive also seen him at Hobie beach on the pier all the way there and turns and comes back... totally effortless by the looks of things
Fark steaks. Your penis must be tiny
WHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! 
good one
It is my opinion that 2 x 10 gives you more gears than a 3 x 10 cause you can ride cross chain and utilise all 20 gears, unlike the 30 speed set-up. Going 2 x 10 for me just made sense, cause I have never used a granny gear.
agreed hardly ever use my granny!
does it not feel like it cross-chains alot? when the chain bends too much and touches he front derailer or when you are on the big at the back and at the front..
2 x 10 and still never in the right gear...
All jokes aside, I have been on a 2x10 for over 2years now, all much of a muchness...
Personal choice.
2x10 you have MUCH less redundant / duplicated gears.
Just do it (the 2x10 I mean
)
ja! i also feel the 3X10 "repeats" some gears and i would like to try something different!
3X10 on the one bike and 2x10 on the other. Much of a muchness for me....except for the weight.
if only i had the money...
check out this kid totally styling! 
JOH!
oh ok! i was going to ask about those gripshifts.. i suppose if you have the legs and thats there wont be an issue with the 2X10! i quite like it myself
i see the new trend on most MTB's are the 2X10 group sets or gear ratios.. for all the hubbers out there that have this please share your opinion on it i would love to see the feedback because from what I've researched the seem to be really good but mostly for marathons... is this true?
Some say that sometimes on tricky places the big chain-ring on the front is too big and the small one is too small so they struggle to find the right gear!
Do you also suffer from this?
hahaha! ja but my bike is black and when i jump on someone else's bike, theirs just seems to be way faster.. so since this GT is white i wont go as fast?
WOW! interesting... how could they be faster though?? its just a colour
Please take this piece of advise to heart: Never use sealant with any Kenda tyre, not even UST ones!! Chances are great you will end up looking like this
pretty soon while staring at the massive bulges due to delamination of the inner layers of the tyre.
what do you mean? will i get lots of punctures or will i have to replace the tyres soon?
Saw a black GT 29er the other day, not sure of the model. Almost looked like a nice bike.
i think it is the new 2012 Korakoram... not too bad! but its an entry level
can the kenda tyres be converted into tubeless??
:lol:
Buck ? Holy Cow?
It's a friggin Hartebeest! At least he got one word right.....SH*T
Oh. I also noticed that "The Buck" didn't stop at all. He jus' kept on going.
Buck = 1 - Young Buck = 0
That's what happens when you race with 140mm rotors.
AMEN about the 140mm rotors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
feel kind of sorry for the bike too! 
thanks! would you recommend the bike?
just one problem- the frame and stickers are white-on-white... but otherwise looks like really great bike!

its such a beaut.
Have a look at the GT's, they are the only ones that have kept their frame design since the first frame ever built! that ''triangle truss'' design near the seatpost has been round forever, GT has never changed it, even on their carbon framed bikes!!!!
dont believe me? go have a look...
