WTF is up with the back wheel ? Looks like a skollie using plastic bits to pimp his bike.

What no cd's in the spokes?

I just tasted my breakfast again!

they used disk covers on the rear wheels for downhill racing. Here is Tomac with his and his drop bars.

Hey Rock is that Johnny T's bike?

[Azonic]

I will give my left nut for that bike...

 

The most classic and recognizable MTB for purists.

It looks dangerous

that back wheel was the coolest thing back in the day - not a cover, it had no spokes!

 

 

 

and that's carbon fibre main tubes mated to a Ti frame.......and the fork was a one off made by Showa (iirc)rock2009-09-25 02:20:24

The only thing that bike needs to be complete is a Tioga Psycho-K amber front tyre. I had two of them but sold them.

[rock]

those the butterscotch ones?

[CAAD4]

It also looks like a fork brace that was supposed to make the V brakes more effective.

[Azonic]

Rock, yes. Somewhere between cream and orange in colour. Classic tyres.

 

caad4, that bike was winning World Cups years before disc brakes was someone's wet dream at AMP Research.

 

[CAAD4]

And he was winning both XC and DH titles. Remember the skin suit?
