nice ride.. done any upgrades??
running a 05 big hit but currently on the hunt for a rear shock because mine is mullered.. its the last bit I needed to do, would have been nice for it to wait a month though rather than going a week before im north bound!

nice pics dude.. I lived in the french mountains for 2 years and the only pic I have left after my external hdd died is a really girly shot of me doing a straight section leading to a epic rock garden lol.. er actually the one there <<<<<<
now that bike I loved 888's, dhx 5 with a ti spring the works but some punk nicked it off my car whilst I went for a pee and my mate slept in the passanger seat!!!
winner just sorted a new rear shock.. dhx5 off the bay for ?165.
Mine...... it makes sense....
It now has a d20 3pc crank, new sram chain sproket etc... just need to fit them :)

I had my Giant MB nicked recently on holiday, so im borrowing a mates Specialized Stumpjumper. Its an awesome bit of kit with carbon fibre all over the place. Cant justify ?2000 for one myself though!
I really want to get into downhill biking, but theres not alot of places around here.
