released today.. danny hart’s new steed.

I got quite excited because it said £ 0.00, which seemed very reasonable but then, tucked away, I saw “Call for price”, which looked much less attractive.

1st link’s the same colour scheme as the 2012 Specialized Camber Elite.

And the 2012 Camber is more gnarr as its got a proper DH sized chainring on it 😉

They’re alright, not worth touching myself over though

best looking downhill bike of all time!!!

that Mondraker? 😆

might need a small dose of eye bleach, its always looked like a dog taking a crap.. this one is no different

Tomac 204 Magnum (in red) with a set of Dorados.

It’s certainly the best looking Mondraker, but that’s not the sort of consolation prize you’d put up on your fireplace.

Mmm. Something very right about these

I almost bought one of these this year:

All it needs is a GSXR1100 engine and a pair of useless headlights.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong! You’re all wrong!

In fact, the best looking downhill bike of all time was my Intense 951, until this year. Until ‘that’ 951 Evo, with the Emerald forks:

Dribble…

wot he ^ said but here’s a better pic:

If only my numbers would come up…

I really liked the old Summum, and the new one’s alright.

But I have to agree on the Intense 951 (not sure about the Hulk fork though), it’s a beautifully proportioned machine.

Partial to a TR450 myself

Maybe a raw podium;

Gambler?

A bit dofferent; M9;

All nicer looking than that Mondy.

It even looks like it’s straining to poo out it’s shock.

Intense M3 in blue,

All nicer looking than that Mondy.

Is that insulting the Mondraker or just damming with fait praise?

And here’s Palmers S-Works [/thread closed]

It’s nice but it’s no Gambler.

Tomac 204 Magnum (in red) with a set of Dorados

as long as it’s a proper Lawwill one 😉

but I’d vote for Nico/AnneC’s 98-99 Sunn Radical

RN01 Honda, built by HRC 8)

Or Bender’s twin rear shock Karpial 😉

Of course it’d be a Lawill one. Just like my old one… I’d love to have that hanging on the wall somewhere… Might have to track one down.

And your best offering is a specialized? 😯

Prefer the more recent Sunn Radicals- not exactly exciting looking but, well, just bikey. Which is good.

This is pretty tidy.

as is this

Did someone say Tomac?

Although I’ve also always had a soft spot for old Lawwill Yeti’s.

You can just about see the squint welding in that photo

Liking the new Pivot.

We have a winner.

That S-works wouldn’t look out of place in Tesco.

(sorry I still cannot work out how to post pics….)

It makes me feel happy inside looking at it.

This does it for me!

Toss up between the mulit-chained Cannondale Fulcrum and that bloody Scott Octane for me…

Call or price?

That is because it costs 8,099 euros!!!!!!!

There you go! I had a 6Point for a few years, so still have a soft spot for Sundays.

The 26″ Wilson is great looking IMO. Not as keen on the new one, proportions just don’t seem quite as right

/pic edited

This is nice too. 26″ wheels definitely look better.

this too

The Wilson was probably quite nice til they left it too close to a radiator and it melted

There’s good reason why pretty much every BSO shares it’s silouette with either an M1, Palmers Spesh or the Trek Y-frames.

Although in the Trek’s case it was probably because it cost more than the Moon, not because it was any good.
