Click on the IMG button and put in your URL
Or just type
(IMG)www.YOUR-URL.com(/IMG) but instead or round brackets I've used use the square ones like these [ ]
My Roberts D.O.G.S B.O.L.X
Also own a 80's White Spider too.
There's only one of these in the UK.
There were two of them at one point though.
But one of them's gone back to it's maker now .
JC.
Them things are as common as shite these days.
Lovely bike, best suspension action ever - just didn't fit me, waaay to far back over the bb (long femurs) - shame.
I've noticed Nicolai's getting alot of stick recently (from the lower echelons). I have the pleasure of being aloft a Helius FR and I flipping loves it. Only ever seen one other FR and a CC on the trails.
Got enough hose on those brakes Gruenermoench?
Stunning. Would love to see the full build and hear your thoughts on how it rides.
Those Mavericks are lovely, I'd love one if I could justify having a FS living in Suffolk
merida mission comp with rear shock in spesh epic position, never seen another one but there must be some out there pics please, i will post one tomorrow.
I have 2x Gary Fisher bikes
I understand they're quite unpopular with the nicheaholics on here 
I havent seen many of these out and about
hmmm . i like that alcopop
doesn't anyone have a pic of a working proflex??
i seem to remember some changable elastomer suspension grommet system?
raleigh rsp100 - had it since i was 16 and use it for commuting/pub bike/touring/shopping bike now. had it locked up next to an uber trendy fixie outside the pub last night which made me realise how uncool it is in fashion circles especially covered with old no fear and mbuk stickers and panniers... glad i decided to stick with it tho instead of getting a langster/flyer which i was toying on replacing it with and deciding to treat it to some new gears and cranks instead 
Go the RSP. My RSP ti.
And the Hoss, great mount for a big man, sure there's one in Ton's back catalog.
chopperT..........2 mate, a poo brown one and a nice blue one. 
In the nichetastic world of tandem mountainbiking these are relatively popular. I don't think I have ever seen another on the trails
A long long way from standard
For a couple of months it was the only one in the country. Now there are two. But I think its going to get more popular in 2010
*drums fingers and waits for Paradox to arrive* 
Planet X Armadillo. Not massively uncommon but not exactly popular.
Pastey Howler. Never really took off. Chain tensioner <shudders>.
I once had a Marin - another kind of unpopular.
pic from last year...
number 11 of 100 back in 07, still going strong (rode it this morning).
I've yet to see another Bionicon Golden Willow whilst on my travels. People do seem to be interested in it when they see what it is though.
Depends on your definition... I reckon my old Carrera Kraken would be pretty unpopular here, but in terms of sales it's probably one of the more common mountain bikes out there. It's a surprisingly nice frame though.
WHY are pepople posting pics of POPULAR bikes which are a bit rare???????????????????? i.e the sanderson, golden willow, Elswoth and ON-One + many more, even a 456 posted, ffs these ARE ALL POPULAR, ok some may be a bit rare but still popular LOL...........
the topic was for non popular bikes,
853 Curtis.
Only one of these ever made, custom built just for me, owned for 12 months and have ridden alot more than I thought I would.
I have seen a few other Mather's, but seeing as no two are the same, this is unique:
Got a DMR Switchback never seen another in real life but somebody off here has one. Mine will soon be built up SS.
I have a hoss so fairly popular and a rocky mountain switch from 2003 (first generation black and bronze) I have yet to see one of them in the UK
Have a custom geometry Roberts Genesis with disk tab and full 853, its the only one I've ever seen, and a Series1 Cannondale Jekyll with a polished frame and LeftyMax again the only one I've ever seen in that spec.
I've seen a couple of Airnimal Chameleons and Rhinos on my commute and I know there is at least one Joey on STW but I've yet to see another Elite (the Rohloff one)...
This is Enid, my Raleigh. Upgraded her to 4-pot shimano XT brakes and a Bomber fork, but she still feels like you're dragging an anchor on the climbs. Also a funny whining noise coming from the back quite often. 
Does have 'Pilot' and 'Co-Pilot' printed on the top tube though, which is pretty cool. 
My corsair built up...
Thats a nice looking Corsair
I picked up a Raleigh Maverick for £5 at the weekend, sorry no pics yet!
Wanted something to use round town, or to the pub, think it dates back to 1985. Bit of a gate and looks like Raleigh have tried to copy what the Americans were making at the time.!
5 speed, seems to be all original and in amazing condition, quite a relaxed riding position, amazing cow horns, but handles the rough stuff much better than I though it would, well, apart form the lowish bb and as for the brakes
Still, its another bike for my collection and will get used.
Ton - being retro, you might know more about it that I do?
my solitude - now with regular gears and some bolt-thru forks and fat wheels. only seen one other solitude
and my soma juice - sold frame a year ago, had to be imported from the US for me though... never seen another soma about.
also have 2 konas (an A and a kula29) and a pinnacle cross bike, and a dawes tandem.
ski.....is this the same
