Wyatt Earp Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Nah. Can just get him an old Scalpel. That doesn't qualify as an FS machine due to the lack of a pivot.But he wants to go 29'er.
Alien Racer Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Womans Olimpic XC was won on a 26" now that is a achievement!

cst68 Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Well watching the mens and ladies race, I couldnt help but notice how many riders including Burry struggle in climbs especially over rocky sections. I would have like to see the top 5 in an even split of 29ers and 26ers just to see the difference, But to me it looks like it is a bit heavy to pop those wheels over certain areas. Also saw that.
covie Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Also saw that. You did? just wondering if they struggled so much how come they were in front?
andydude Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 You did? just wondering if they struggled so much how come they were in front? The camera doesn't give justise to the gradients and difficulty; I think they actually made it look easy!
Iron Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 (edited) Why , was it not a bicycle ? Give it up ,you not gonna win with all the" look at how big my 29er is" people why dont they all just hang thier slappers out to see who has the biggest. Edited August 13, 2012 by Iron
Guest Omega Man Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 The camera doesn't give justise to the gradients and difficulty; I think they actually made it look easy! Really? I think the IOC managed to make out sport look super dorky. The riders were amazing of course but the track looked totally lame in my opinion. The PMB xc track looked way better and was probably done with 10% of the budget of the olympics track.
Wyatt Earp Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Give it up ,you not gonna win with all the" look at how big my 29er is" people why dont they all just hang thier slappers out to see who has the biggest. There seems to be a lot of them on here, especially some of the new SS crowd, then they all walk and preach the "just ride your bike" gospel :clap: Sean32 1
Carsten Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 So what do all the naysayers have to say now? ;-) Their sponsors make them ride those bikes
Sean32 Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Give it up ,you not gonna win with all the" look at how big my 29er is" people why dont they all just hang thier slappers out to see who has the biggest. Iron lets see which was better this past weekend 26er or 29er. :clap:
Sean32 Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Who gives a **** if you with your mates and you having a joll thats the winner.
mazambaan Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Maybe not much different to that saying (from racing MX etc in the US, I think); "win on Sunday; sell on Monday". Thinking about what they buy and their abilities as hardly being related to the full race article and operator doesn't enter the heads.
Iron Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 (edited) Iron lets see which was better this past weekend 26er or 29er. :clap: we know which was faster and all i can say is that one day when im big i wish that i too can ride like that . Edited August 13, 2012 by Iron
