opinion and review / pics ?
TIA
Not the best trail centre bike ever I'm afraid.
Unbeatable on square edged hits though, and cornering is a copy and past affair.
tut tut.
i'm flattered that you continue to stalk me and seek my affection.... 🙄
Work well with canecreek coil shocks 😆
You're too easy a target, it's my main failing in life.
I love ya Al!
al, you continue to reek of jealousy....
i thought your recent counselling had cured you of that other failing.........?
Does anybody have a review on this bike?
Please help me!
I so want one, but really like the Santacruz heckler aswell!
Which is best?...FIGHT!
Simon, i thought you had ridden dippers VF2 and liked it?
I am so damaged no counselling will ever cure me, and you have penetrated my pathetic facade to see that it is all pure jealousy.
Simon [b]I LOVE YOU.
[u]I WANT TO BE YOU.
I WANT TO DRIVE A [s]BMW 1 SERIES[/s] [s]ST170[/s] CIVIC TYPE R TO TRAIL CENTRES WITH A [s]HUMMER[/s] [s]NICOLAI[/s] CHUBBA ON THE BACK[/b][/u]
*sits in corner and rocks, weeping*.
Guys,..........get a room! 🙄
I wish...
al, really any need? Do you know each other?
Si,
I think they have history....Bad seperation 😀
I feel like I know him. The shrine is pretty impressive.
Anyway! Back to the bikes.
This is surprise when you click on the thread 😆
cynic-al 🙄 what's up with you with this troll comments?
The OP was only asking for opinion and review and pics.
Take some chill pills cynic-al 😕
I get where al is coming from 🙂
It's called HAVING A LAUGH guys...
reviews anyone ?
al - - i understand your envy, but put it to one side and carry on - you'll feel better once you give up on yearning for what you'll never have.
I do hope I have been trolled, or are you being serious?
EDIT I do recall a bloke on here buying one, not liking it, then trying to sell it, and being unable to get decent money for it.
Al, what Is the problem? Don't like the subject matter then ignore the post? though I think it may be that you don't like any posts with Chumba in them?
think you might have the wrong end of the stick there si
but perfectly understandable as most of this thread is gibberish.
Si I refer you to my post above, and have otherwise presented only the full extent of my factual information on the matter - you can't complain about that.
thread now irrelevant anyway as I've managed to secure an incredible deal on a VF2 full build.
i was suitably impressed a number of months ago, sufficiently so to buy the bike .
any owners got any further info they're wishing to share ?
try not to be frightened of al - he's just a lonely man behind a keyboard 🙂
Does this mean you're selling your Nic'?
steve - of course not - the VF2 will have kit on for a swap onto a Helius AC later this year.
the Nic AM is undergoing a transformation. CCDB being tuned by Stendec, new 2011 Kashima Floats on it, tubeless conversion and new tyres........as well as a bearing service 🙂
cynic al - i've re-read your posts.
for reference i still have the Hummer, the Ti456, the Nicolai Helius AM and the Chumba VF2 as well as my Tricross for commuting...
They are all very well cared for and ridden with abandon......... 🙂
😉
Ha ha lonely AND JEALOUS remember!
I'd have stopped after my first post but you just keep setting yourself up.
I've actually had unsolicited messages of support for my posts on this thread.
cooooooooooool 🙂
i just have to wonder why you've been tagged a muppet however being an unsolicited hero ?
back on track please - any rider reviews / opinion ?
TIA
🙂
😀
how many turns on the rebound on my CCDB?
I only accept answers from engineers...what are your qualifications?
yay that's my second muppet tag.
you always know you that you need to look at yourself when someone on the web slags you off and doesn't even put their name to it.
whoever you are, I take my work seriously and accept your applause.
Tedious thread distractions aside, I'm very happy with my VF2. Live in the Lakes, lots of uphill pedalling and rocky descents. What you gain in clearance from a high BB you lose in a slightly teetering feel, for me felt most on techy climbs (ie very low speed, balancy stuff) which I'm crap at anyway. The flipside is it feels very efficient to ride a long way, very good quality, solid support from Si who will also do deals on build bits (and full builds since I got mine). Very flattering 4 bar suspension which works well, ironing out the worst of things but not leaving you detached from what you're riding.
I'm pleased, and have no plans to change.
tomb - i assume no noticeable pedal strike issues 🙂
😆 😯
ARGH "Pedal strike"
