That was a hard core 90s HT with no bar ends.

my Giant Boulder MTB looks very much like that 90's bike. I think I may have even bought it at the tail end of the 90s.

Nothing and I mean nothing but possibly a tube or 2 has been replaced on that bike. Even the tyres are still how I bought it.

BRAIN dude BRAIN - no need to lock out anything. Soon there will be an BRAINeBike from Spesh that you don't have to pedal at all. You just dial in the speed you want to go and the bike does the rest.

Is Cav riding a prototype for his stage wins? I mean that one sprint he won with the chain completely off the chainrings was a bit of a giveaway.
