But that was by default as a warranty replacement, so does that count? He's now got the bike he thought he was buying in the first place though, so maybe this one's a 'keeper'.
Ha!

Ha!
Reckon it doesn't count. If someone had guessed "warranty replacement for one he's broken" it would have been deemed inadmissable.
I reckon.
Who's in charge here?
Insider tip - it's going to be a 456 with broken orange Z1's in a few weeks
fixed that for ya
Haha, possibly, I'm (if he wants them) selling him the forks so can gaurentee they are Spoon proof, and I can usualy break most things!

I plead ignorance of the warranty replacement issue
I don't get it anyway - if people tackle steep slopes on an mtb for an adrenaline rush then by having a steeper head angle the rider would get that adrenaline rush a lot more easily or for a larger portion of the ride.

Again..........
How did Hora manage to break his 5spot and get a warranty replacement? He only had it for about a minute!
Paint was flaking and he was jammy enough to get a new frame rather than just a repaint.
EDIT - Oh no! I sound like a Hora Stalker!
On One fat bike
On-One Growler 96er, with a Rohloff & belt drive. BB7s obviously, because they're much better than hydraulics. Some H bars, for that uber-niche look, as well as the not-even-slightly-passe whisky flask in a titanium bar-mounted cage.
Do I win?

Where do I claim my £5?
Dear god! Where's that one come from?
Hang on, he will be on in a minute to claim that he's had the same bike and forks for 3 years now, and he doesn't replace his bike every Thursday.
Judging by his post yesterday whoever had the Blur 4x could be the winner...
keep up, he's had a new turner and a 456 since this thread started!
I feel sorry for him a bit. He's constantly looking for the perfect bike.
He's tried enough by now to know that it doesn't exist, maybe he should go to a trail centre with a decent shop and just demo everything they have.
He seems to have a taste for Intense at the moment. If he ever needs CS he will be horrified having just dealt with Turner.
Out of interest can anyone remember how much he paid for the Turner? I've got 900 quid in my head for some reason in which case he could make a tidy little turn on the warranty frame.
Yeah, I think it was about that but he paid postage to the US for the replacement so £1100 is a fair price I reckon. Lovely bike and a bargain for whoever gets it.
I wonder if he buys that Pivot that's been advertised lately? It is very nice indeed.
At first I thought you lot where being a bit over the top with it. Now I realise Hora does indeed have a problem.
I was close with my guess of November 12th 2011. I guessed his next bike would be a Stumpy Evo, and he was sniffing round a Stumpy in the classifieds a day or two ago.
He and CruzHeckler should just keep swapping bikes between them
