How dare you besmirch the good name of sunn. Oh... actually, I see what you mean, not the prettiest. The sunns I have in mind look more like this...

That said, I've read some good reviews of their recent full sus bikes, all Euro though. Where is that pic from? Are they selling over here again?

Looks like a cheap Argos bike - absolutely hideous. They need to sack their designer.

Colour scheme is a bit gobbing on that one!

Ive spent a bit of time on the 2010 bikes already and they ride fantastically well, just some of the colour schemes on some models are a little 'euro'. Jim Walker are bringing them in this year and the first drop should be here mid-late November.

Model above that the kern s1 is much better looking:

Steel hardtail is also pretty euro but very cool at the same time!

And their XC full sus frames look pretty sweet too...

Yep, colour choice on that top one is rather poor, it must be said. The rest of their bikes look rather lovely this year, IMO.

Such as the longer travel Kern;

Am I getting confuzzed or what?
I'm sure this thread was 4 pages long and stuffed with some right 'classics' last time I looked, but now it's just one page full of nearly new bikes. And a singlespeed. What's going on?

EDIT
I've just realised my stupid mistake. I was following a link. I'll shut up and drink my Friday beer now. Thank you.

All a question of taste.

The mid-late 90's Sunn B-Mix was one of the coolest bikes ever.. Sunn make great looking bikes but some are bound to be a bit hit and miss )

Arent they doing a Ti hardtail with ISCG mounts? That looked nice.
