TitusTi Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 That's at least 90% the point! Would actually prefer white walls but they're hard to find.

jap spec Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Hey Guys, its me again... see you guys are having a field day at giving my bike teh thumbs down..... The reason i got it is simple....seem to be rough on bikes and buying cheap for me does not work.... had a 30k bike before this and snapped it after 2 weeks not even trying.... this IBIS aint even got a scratch on it... maddest toughest bike i have had... Also, its a jump bike, downhill bike, cross country, and cruiser to the shops all in one.... as i said, if you check out the beast properly, its only the wheels that are porno, tyres especially.... Got them in Japan as i thought they the opposite colour of everything else.... Beauty is in 5 minutes i can change them to the black ones..... The rims i got cos down here we do alot of fun free ride type stuff in the valley.. rocky stuff, rims wont bend and break an that makes me happy.. a little heavier but so what... .. think i'll take a pic of what it looks like with the black tyres on.... Why have the same as everyone else?.. black on black.... i shoud have got the orange ibis.... would have gone perfect with my rims..................
Mackie Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Saw it at a bike shop in PE today. Wicked. What do you guys think. The owners name is Quincy or something like that. Thought it was kind of OTT cool. Come-on okes, admit it; you like it......infact you like it a lot.

Fleming Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 i shoud have got the orange ibis.... would have gone perfect with my rims.................. It would have looked really sick with a orange frame!!! I give you 10 points for trying to be unique, even though I don't think the colors work, as long as you are happy with it. Thats what counts.
Willehond Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 I like it. I think it's something that you have to see in real life to appreciate. Like you say it's only tyres, you will swop them out after a while but for now they have a certain wow factor! Completely different and very 80's retro. Much better than having just another Specialized factory spec bike.
gummibear Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 I have seen this bike and it looks a lot cooler than the pics give it credit.
Dirty Twin Posted December 17, 2008 Author Posted December 17, 2008 I have seen this bike and it looks a lot cooler than the pics give it credit. Ok so shoot me I can't help it I have a sh*tty pink camera.
Guest colonel Posted December 17, 2008 Posted December 17, 2008 I like it alot, its different and stands out. Well done Jap Spec you got my vote for not being a follower of the masses.
jap spec Posted December 17, 2008 Posted December 17, 2008 got a pink bottle holder so long.... maybe a troy lee designs seat for it............
