the all mountain bike - myth or reality?

http://lp1.pinkbike.org/p4pb6815159/p4pb6815159.jpgIs it just me or does the pendbox system on here remind you a bit of a in-board mounted I-drive system???BB mounted to a floating housing thats attached to both the front and rear triangles?This looks like an I-Drive on a 4bar linkage bike ....

 

 

My word! That is a whole lot of metalwork for a single pivot bike! Floating BB, but still single pivot...

Good to hear the suppliers are delivering good service by loaning you a rear shock till they get yours sorted!

 

She is looking good by the way.

 

thanks apparently they're waiting for seal kits or something to that effect. but yeah - bleakness turns to stoked-ness when suppliers come through

Nice bikes. What's a "Power Plate"?

No idea. I think it's a plate of some sort. But for really hardcore people.

Just wondered, Is a sign on the door of the shop you leaned your bikes against.

 

Still good looking bikes. What's that Phoenix like? My first mtb was a gorilla.

different shop to the shop I was at

 

dunno what the Phoenix is like - it's actually just a Phoenix frame with a mixed bag of parts from the Commencal and my Mongoose Tyax, and it's my wife's - build was finished today so she is yet to ride it

 

weight is 13.1kg on the Silverback build, for those who care
