for under 8K you get a serious 29er, sure entry level, but alloy frame, rock shox fork, hydro brakes, sram shifting and big wheels too......gold hubs for bling guys and pimp white bar/stem.....

 

damn I use the word 'bling' and 'pimp' ion the sma sentence......forgive me....

 

anyways good sign of the state of the industry me thinks

That looks very much like a GT Frame, cool looking bike though all the same, and very competitive price too. I like it, I like it a lot !

Karakoram is the full name of K2, the most dangerous 8000m plus peak...What that has to do with a 29er only GT will know :rolleyes:

karakoram has a long history with GT bikes - check this from the archives.

K2 all well and good, but does not translate at all well in afrikaans.

"crack a frame" not good

Karakoram is not the name of a mountain, but the name of a mountain range between Pakistan, India and China (I think). The Karakoram Highway is the highest paved road in the world and a famous destination for cyclists.
