That Lahar was a funny looking thing really. It looked like it was designed by Kurt Geiger.
I met a chap riding one at Cwmcarn a few years back and apparently he was good friends with the company owner. It wasn’t all that light and it did look a bit ‘home made’ but it was fascinating and in the flesh it really worked aesthetically.
Geetee, yes, that’s it. And also have only just figured out how to post pics so it’s still a novelty!!
Wtf is going on with some of those up there^^??? Jesus, my eyes hurt!!!!
Like the spesh, that trek looks fugly ( no offence meant).
hmm – thought this thread was going to be discussing Zerode bikes, not just any good looking DH bikes!
I think the Zerode looks really interesting. Massively high pivot, enabled by a high mounted gearbox. Very very interesting. I’d love to have a go!
In fact a single-speeded one would be pretty interesting too.
IIRC he didn’t use it for the best part of a year – so cleaned it up, got the Rohloff hub sent to Germany for a service, made the carbon shock guard, etc. Nice to see such a rare bike in good nick, and being used properly.
