nickc Posted January 18, 2011 Author Posted January 18, 2011 Chumba also looking at it and Ibis i see I like the looks of that Chumba with the Lefty.
AndreZA Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 But obviously the best one is the Helix 29er. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae61/Simonhi/LynskeyPro29erLefty-6.jpg http://www.lynskeyperformance.com/a/media/promos/2010/PRO29_Lefty.jpg This is how they twist the tubing for the Helix. http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4108/5054477564_a54574d75b.jpg

Zeps Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 That is just wrong and has devalued the BigS bike substantially :angry: :angry: :angry:
nickc Posted January 18, 2011 Author Posted January 18, 2011 what are the benefits of the lefty? Once you have ridden a Lefty you will never want to go back - lighter, stiffer and because it uses bearings as sliders gives an unreal smooth action.Its like supporting the Sharks, once you have tried it you can`t go back to any other team.

There was a guy at the 24 hour with one, without a Lefty of course. It is a work of art.
Headshot Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 That is one fuggggly bike from the colour to the fork to the branding
TriGuru76 Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 Some lead ....... Others follow..... Cannondale for life!!!

Have to agree 100%, requires more maintenance though Virtually zero flex, especially fore-after flex Very light Very responsive Very expensive (to buy and to maintain)
MattyG Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 its a pitty they dont make a lefty for the poor man..that wants to experience coolness.
Thug Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 I reckon that most people are copying me. They've seen a pic of my bike on MTBR and as they say in the classics............the rest is history.
