I decided I don't need my money. So... I built a mountain bike :D
Trek 6500 frame
Mostly Shimano components.
Next purchases, new paddles (Me wants clips), new hubs, and disk brakes :)
I'll try and get some pics soon.

Just remember to pedal faster than 6000 rpm so the vtec can kick in.

Lol, Fuck you all :flipa: :flipa:
But seriously tho, I think that little reflector in the back gives me a good amount of power.

I'm not familiar with mountain bikes (still use my ten speed that I bought twenty years ago). How much does something like that run?

Nice buy Gonthrax,
Only thing I would have done different is an 8000 ZX frame, but I am a 'retired' racer.
My wife has a 6500 WSD and it is a great bike, so I am sure yours is too,
My own bike is a Giant ATX-Team.....it's the one I used to race and is still covered in sponsored stuff....that I kept...hehe...
I hope you enjoy the bike, nothing beats a good bike ride!

Yep, problems at work. I've been banned from posting on AF while at work. :o The IT department got a bit "annoyed" with the amount of time I spend on AF. My boss doesn't have a problem with it, but the IT department do. To cut a long story short, my boss is now giving me lots of work so I'm not bored anymore. :) Still can't get onto AF at work though, so that kind of sux. :(

Hey Gonthrax thought you was heading downunder here? Is that still the plan or has that been binned.
Bugger Andy, oddly enough I was able to talk the IT guy who contracts for us at work to hook me up. So once in a while I surf and even fire up mIRC hahahaha, though the boss tends to get a bit shitty if it is not on break time. Funny that.
