    Default Mountain bikers, whats your ride.....?

    After finding out a fair few of us are mountain bikers and going out and cleaning mine up and adding some new bits i thought id get some pics for insurance purposes and such, so thought why not share em and see what everyone else rides (im expecting some funny buggers to post pictures of wives/dogs/lee/inflatable sheep and other such funnies, but i do mean mountain bikes)

    Heres mine, its 2008 carrera vulcan XC disc spec, it came with tektro cable discs which ive swapped for avid elixir-R hydraulics, the forks were a capable SR suntour job but i was too fat for them so they went in favour of a pair of rock shox dart II's and ive just replaced the grips which were alwasys sliding off, for some bontager lock ons, and ive replaced my cheap 'innova' tyres for some shiny panaracer fire FR 2.4's.

    She has a full sram groupset and a truvative crankset not up on what groupsets are these days so i reckon its capable cheapo stuff tbh

    Anyways, pics.......













    And heres me arsing about on it down our tenfoot, i can still wheelie like a lil kiddy, woooo, go me








    Comments welcomed peeps, and other bikers post your bike p0rn

    Tbh mate youre best off getting one from ebay or something along the lines of mine, a decent base spec one from hellfrauds and build up from there, if you build a bike up from the ground up it would be epic expensive!
